(asaura @ Sep. 01 2006,14:09)QUOTE I'm willing to playtest these, but I don't get as much Epic as I used to, due to a certain very young recruit I'm training nowadays. She's a girl, three weeks old and absolutely sweet. I haven't figured if she'll play Orks or Marines, yet. Asaura, Congratulations ... |

Exactly.
Your opponent just doesn't realize how much better a save the Termy's actually have in E:A.

CS, Thank you for your elaboration and stance - even if I don't like it, your position is now clear. So, thank you for the above. Please allow me to briefly make this statement: I'm very much against this decision of BS as LV. I feel its against the franchise grain, it causes more problems than it s... |

Crisis, 3+ armor save (termy is better with a 2+) T4 (like termy) Can Deep Strike (Like a termy, though termy's get teleport in E:A only) Crisis can move and jump over terrain like jetback (better than Termy) 2 Wounds (better than termy) Get evade before being shot at (way better than termy) May hav... |

(nealhunt @ Aug. 30 2006,09:12)QUOTEBroadsides as infantry could be justified via basing and 40K # of models/wound count (even though I still think the other factors are more compelling*). The major consideration in that case is that if you are going to count Drones for "wound ?count" in determinin... |

Honda,
See the BS thread. CS is suggesting that we change the current BS LV unit (stand) of 3 models + 2-6 drones to actual LV status of 1 broadside with 0-2 drones.
He's also suggesting that it go to a single shot, not 2x shot per stand.
Cheers, |

Actually, We already add seekers to vehicles, which is a main driver of our list. Our list is very different from anything else that's out there... just as the bugs list is very different from anything else that's out there. + + + In so staying with your post 1) nobody is saying the SMS should be th... |

NH,
Absolutely it should be viable and useful in the game, not overbearing and definitely not broken.
I'm keen to back it off to 30cm in the end. Just didn't want to throw FB and AA range right out of the gates.
Agree on tactical flexability concern to be monitored. |

I don't think there's any significant doubt where I stand. Many of us want to see the FW + DF change as has already been articulated in the FW thread.

Actually, BFG uses gravitic salvos - unless I'm mistaken. In core design and fluff, the value of the skyray is self launching seekers, fires at multiple targets, and unsurpassed AA range, accuracy, effectiveness while still representing a MBT of firepower vs the toughest and most heavily armored gro... |

Lion, I was speaking in general on drones. Perhaps I should have been more specific on each drone type and how it would work with each unit, but I thought that might get tedious and a bit irrelivent for the scale. Sorry if I was misleading at all, I think we agree in the context of the change at han... |

As it ties directly to the FW unit as an upgrade to the FW unit, its quite relivent for consideration. We cannot buy DF by themselves afterall. They come with PF or FW... and there are pages of the conversation on the DF with FW here together already, probably would be in approapriate and disjointed... |
