Almost... one Battleship, a Cruiser and a Light Cruiser that is priced as much as a regular Cruiser!
Last I heard, we should be using standard Imperial rules initially, but that our own Ray was working on the official rules for them... Ray?

The Machine world has arrived! Well, at least on UK advance order. With a selection of 2 cruiser and 1 battleship the Adeptus Mechanicus reveals its powerful array of spacefleets... I'd like to hear some thoughts on rules? Anyone know what kind of ordnance i would use with a fleet like that...? |

Sorry, I can't say anything about the list until Andy decides to put it up on the SG site. (And he never tells me when, but I'd guess it'll be on a friday!  In terms of ordnance... I would suggest taking as much as you can if you want it to be effective, as AM ships are more expensive than normal IN. But it'd be better to try and stick with NC ships IMO. Lock-on all the way, and damn the torps! Cheers, RayB |

Ray, is the twin-linked Nova Cannon like you mentioned last year still part of the fleet? |

Please. Not that. I like to improve the NC but not that way. |

Normal Novas are insane in that they pretty much suck by their lonesome. Bring them en masse, and it's another story but then your opponent will be crying cheese all day long. |

 The double Nova Cannon BB made it quite far through the various version of the AM, but alas it was too scary a design to get in the final copy. I still believe it was a perfectly balanced ship (as it cost more than 2 Dominators), so you weren't flooding the table with NC's more than you could in another way. ...I had to look back at what I had just written, I've deleted damn near all of this post!  I still think Nova Cannons should be redone: Hit long or short (rather than all over the place!) If the hole is over the stem (usually only on a direct hit!) it casues D6 damage, hole over the base is D3 damage, template over the base is 1 damage. Eldar may attempt to ride the wave as with solar flares, taking them D6cm beyond the templates edge (moving from the centre). You must roll to cause damage as if moving through a BM. Lock-on allows you to reroll the hit! Kinda going off topic so I'll leave it there!  Cheers, RayB |

hmmmm personally i think there is a problem with Novas being able to fire so close to home...what if a flaming cruiser flies into you? I agree with Xavi, GOOD REVISIONS |
