| For at least a decade, this rule is the one that has come up most frequently as the most needful of a change. "A unit must use their counter charge move to move directly towards the closest enemy unit in the assaulting formation . It may move into base contact if close enough, and as long as th... |

Sounds great, Gunslinger.
A friend of mine would like to take Vior'la Tau to a tournament here in Western Australia in a few weeks, so if 2.5 is available I'll see if I can get a brief report of each of the games from him. |

That is correct, no space craft.
Get back down to the surface and fight in the mud, as the Emperor intended. |

Also if the games are to have a secondary purpose for battle reports, any developmental lists would need to play against approved ones, so it would make sense for both to be allowed.
Good luck organising it, and let me know if you need any help! |

Great, let us know if you get a chance to use either of them in a game. |

| It sounds like fun! I'd be happy to be involved. Having played in Vassal Tournaments several times (ok fine, several dozen times :D ), please be aware that time zones will definitely be a big factor. Depending on the amount of sign ups, you might find it best to break people into groups based on the... |

| I think this is brilliant, a kind of "handicap" system. Post this on that blog for comment. I'm still firmly in the camp that's it's the player, not the list. So to turn that idea on its side: Last Placing Points at Next Tourney 1 2700 2-3 2850 4-13 3000 14-15 3150 16 3300 It's interestin... |

| I'll admit I'm disappointed to see a bump to supremacy suits points value. I cant help but point at void spinners that are 275 with similar stats except they get disrupt and skimmer in an army with higher strategy... Can we bump to 275 and get those stats please! 250 seems like poor value compared ... |
