| This has occurred to me also, but in regular 2k-5k games I think it's only a problem with scouts. I have several times used them to do exactly this - advance to adjust their blocking screen. But they're still balanced IMO. |

Unfortunately I realised I am going to a wedding, it's a shame not to be able to go to my first tournament on my own doorstep. Here's hoping one of them gets cold feet 
Have fun guys! |

| These games do sound awesome, I can easily imagine the strategy element being even more prominent as the effects of chance are averaged out. I could never play one though, at the rate we play it'd take the whole year. |

| Most of the time, the balance of particular units or formations isn't really an issue (e.g. "I get to field more titans") because although the way the game is played can certainly change, both armies have the same options and access to counters as the points costs increase. For me the majo... |

| If Banshees had First Strike in their notes they would get FS on FF attacks too. Warp Spiders get it in the notes because the entire first strike thing is because they disappear and reappear where you don't expect it, so it helps all the attacks. The fix would be what EUK has done and give the Exar... |

Scratch my last post, it's irrelevant. I didn't spot it in the data sheet before, but it is meant to be mixed by weight anyway.

When I get some time next week I'll have another go with lots of mixing. |

| Also, is the ratio 1:1 by weight or by volume? The resin I use has different densities for each part and is meant to be mixed by volume - when mixed 1:1 by weight it comes out soft. Yeah, because they're different chemicals, they very likely weigh differently. You might want to pick up some graduat... |

Hi Steve, devastators seem to have acquired a 30cm move.
Haven't looked any further than that. Does anyone have a quick list of the changes? |

Was just thinking that, will have to find out. The kit is sold by weight, but it doesn't say specifically. |

| I think I can rule out quantities. It is a 1:1 mix and I used a .1g scale to measure (I wanted to be sure). The silicone should also be fine as the mould is over a week old, and has cured well at room temp. I didn't use a release agent. There is no date on the tin, it just says use within 6 months (... |

| Yep there's an FAQ on the matter. Basically, unit abilities convey the ability on all weapons in the unit and weapon abilities affect just that weapon: If the special ability appears in the weapon description, it applies only to attacks by that specific weapon. If the special ability appears in the ... |
