Aside from posting a new version of the word doc tomorrow adding bits here and there I am pretty much done with it.

It's up to other people with the beautification skills to step up and make it look pretty,

Also any suggestions on text changes would be good, keeping in mind the reason for doing this in the first place,
It's for players who don't play regularly enough to remember the rules and who dont want to have to read through 60 pages of rules when they do play.

New version up tomorrow ;D

played a game, ad mech v orcs using the new rules had them printed double sided on two pages,

turn around time on rules checks was much improved and we had a good battle,

we had some questions which were not covered which need to be added in,

shooting through units los- only war engines block los
can blast makers destroy units? - only when broken by additonal hits
coherency for war engines - 5cm x starting damage
criticals - rolled for points of damage inflicted rather than inital hits.
moving through friendly units - only infantry can move through friendly units

one question ineed to get confirmed is around transports

say in the example of the starting step transports start the game loaded with infantry,
can they use an advance action and in one move - move the transport then dismount.
then shoot or are the forced to double - move - dismount - shoot?

thanks

john

say in the example of the starting step transports start the game loaded with infantry, can they use an advance action and in one move - move the transport then dismount. then shoot or are the forced to double - move - dismount - shoot?

Each move of the transport allows one mount/dismount action. So if already in, the transport can move up, infantry comes out (within 5cm, not the inf's full move), and they can all shoot with no penalty. Provided the transport made a single move it's only an advance.

Since inf is usually more vulnerable inside a transport, i.e. you can get 3 for the price of 1 hit, it's customary in the first turn to have inf outside their transports. This assumes their enemies will be within range of a double move, not an advance. OTOH, keeping inf inside allows for them to engage out of the transports as an engage is an activation that only allows a single move. Perhaps not amazing for slow movers like Gorgons on the first turn, but a valid tactic for Wave Serpents and their firefight-y infantry.

Does need cleaned up. Some boxes are tables in word, some are blurry content from the book. Should all be one format so it all being retyped would make it look better. A lot of it iis hard to read.

I would also break it down by setting up. More chances then not you are going to set up "tourney style" so you should list those steps and how to win. Placing objectives, when people roll off ETC.

Flow of it over all would be good

Just my thoughts on what I saw

agree 100% they need to be changed and the set up etc bit does need to be added would round it out nicely,
might be a while before i get to this but if someone else wants to jump in, please do! crowdsourcing and all that

I'd really like to help with this but unfortunately I realistically won't have the time.

What I would say however is that I downloaded it for a couple of newish players recently and they found it invaluable - so thanks ! Hard work was worth it ! :-)
