VERY fast, moderate CAF, low firepower, fragile....I don't mind them. Kind of one shot kamikazi basers. You'd have to use Hard to Hit though as Stealth would be abusive (and kinda silly  ) . I'd probably also suggest 3 for 150 so they are almost a certain VP give away.

yes nothing powerfull Quote: You'd have to use Hard to Hit though as Stealth would be abusive (and kinda silly I think stealth would be better because of its name  but please lay down your arguments Its not a necessary unit, just for fun and because of the model |

Something moving 40/80cm over ground is going to have a VERY hard time being stealthy! However, something moving that fast is probably going to be hard to hit. Also, from a game perspective, it means you can keep the unit basically untargetable while still being within easy striking distance of enemy units. That's a bit unbalancing. I guess it's no much worse than some of the sniper units out there now, but then I was never in favour of units with Stealth getting 75cm shooting range anyway  . Given the 2 things together, then Hard to Hit makes much more sense. |

Quote: it means you can keep the unit basically untargetable while still being within easy striking distance of enemy units This popped up in my mind too while thinking about stealth... yes could be a bit strong but we are talking about 3 bikes/150 points which makes them rather expensive But I have no problem with hard-to-hit I think both skills are nice to try on a fast skimmer and nothing too powerful |
