| <warning>nostalgic personal waffle ahead</warning> Over the last few years, I have become increasingly disenfranchised with GW due to the introduction of flyers in 40K, the quick change from 6th edition to 7th edition, the constant barrage of new army books and the ever-larger kits. The destruction ... |

| The Ork Blood Axe Clan card (pg. 4) reads in part: Blood Axe Nobz may only issue orders to Blood Axe formations. Deathskull clan may take ANY support formation, even if it is a clan specific formation (up to a maximum of TWO clan specific formations). Should that be "Blood Axe clan" instea... |

| @Primarch: I agree with several of your ideas: infantry weapon ranges in particular are too long in NetEpic Gold (I don't have a problem with tank and artillery ranges though) and charge distances should be 1.5x standard movement rather than 2x. One thing I find jarring with titans is having to do s... |

| I am really excited about these proposed new army composition rules. Has there been any progress on them? In case you haven't seen them, there are some similarities with the ones in Flames of War (see http://www.dakkadakka.com/wiki/en/Starting_a_Flames_of_War_Force) where you pick a type of battle g... |

| Thanks again for the answers. I'm sorry to be a nuisance but I still don't quite understand (I'll blame it on being half French). For an Imperial Guard Light Off-Board Barrage (also Heavy Off-Board Barrages), the weapon information is 6BP 4+ (-1). There is no "@" symbol indicated. Does tha... |

| Magnus, thank you so much for your quick reply. I have been doing some reading on the forums but there were still a few things I did not quite understand, especially with regard to transports. A. & B. I think that now makes sense to me. We were using the optional "transports as separate det... |

| In my handful of NetEpic Gold games, I have used the "empty activation" interpretation of First Fire, with units on First Fire being allowed to Snap Fire even if they have already been activated this Movement phase. This made sense to me coming from a Battletech background. If I were to us... |

| Does that mean that if I add a Captain to a Devastator formation one of the stands loses its missile launchers and gains a power weapon instead, or does it end up with both? How does that work if the Captain is in a Land Raider: does the Land Raider gain a Power Weapon also, or is the Captain a stan... |

With the Commander upgrade, is its representation based on the unit to which it's attached (e.g. adding a Commander to a Land Raider formation means addi... |

| That's #4-6 taken care of. Thanks! Just missing the Space Marine-specific questions #1-3. For #7, I am concerned about both the IG guys carrying a heavy weapon on their shoulder, and the IG gunners who just seem to be crew members for artillery. |
