I'll be interested to see how yours turn out. I'm gonna do a couple eventually, but I've gotta wade through a half dozen unpainted tau cruisers and 5000 points of unbuilt tyranids(damned if I'm not good at getting in over my head). |

I don't think they are hired, rather they simply comprehend that fighting alongside the other race serves mutual self interest. (Hence they don't get fleet commander re-rolls.)

I've been planning to include these guys as part of my "Non-aligned aliens fleet" but only allow 1 per fleet. Or as a 1 per fleet mercenary type also. |

I'm glad ya'll like the rules (and that someone finally posted comments)
Fore construction, I was thinking some arrangement of bars and grids in geometric formations. Very abstract looking. |

You're right, the "lense effect" is a good description of the weapons. That said, I'm going to make the shooting bonus a column shift rather than a to-hit bonus. What I wanted was to make the Sharn player choose what type of advantage he wanted, by orienting himself properly. He ca... |

looks fine, nothing has changed too drastically. New points costs help alot, but I still don't think there needs to be a limit on how many of a specific module can be taken, that's just my opinion though. The list looks good, and I'd love to see concept art for the two larger ships too. btw, why has... |

Try the updated link on the first post of the thread, that one didn't give any problems for me, though the one here at the end did. |

I think 40 pts for the 2 lance module works, and 45 for the 2 launchbay. See how it is without the restrictions first.
Example: Launchbay Homeworld 12 Bays 3 Shields 3 Turrets 370 pts
That's not too bad, since it has minimal support weapons too. |

Limitations would be fine, but also consider that for those 12 lances on the BB, you'd be paying 210 pts (they should be 35 pts each, at least), plus 100 for the core module, it would only move 15 cm, have 2 shields, and can only fire forward. If they are 40 pts each, its 350 total, and nowhere near... |

Quote If you roll that D6 the first time, the chance of a 4+ is 50%. Yes, the chance of doing 1 or more points of damage is 50%. The chance of doing exactly one point of damage is 25%. This is, however, beside the point of the discussion. Two regular lances is only slightly better than a Pulsa... |

That probability is incorrect. It should be: Pulsar lance: Average 0.875 Damage 0 hit = 50% 1 hit = 25% 2 hit = 12.5% 3 hit = 12.5% Phantom lance: Average 0.83 Damage 0 hit = 50% 1 hit = 16.6% 2 hit = 33.3% 2 Lances: Average 1 damage 0 hit = 25% 1 hit = 50% 2 hit = 25% Two lances score the first hit... |

I don't see the big deal with a 2 lance escort, that's essentailly what a Hemlock or a DE Corsair w/ Phantom Lance is. As long as the points cost is balanced, its okay. In this case, only front firing and one turret less than a firestorm, 35 pts works. Random allocation of hits gives an advant... |

I suggest the 2 lances because the power level is right compared to the Weapons battery pod. Especailly when they are the same points cost, the lance option simply is not strong enough. The battery pod is costed right, its only slightly less effective than a Sword, and 5 points cheaper. ... |
