Not to be an old fuddy duddy, because I think the general EA rules are very good...
The old Titan rules were far superior. The specific targeting rules, differing armour on differing locations, trying to target specific bits, etc was fantastic. I dont thnk it slowed down the game much, a few minutes at most maybe, but the extra level of detail was excellent and appreciated by the player I knew.
Whist I can accept that for rank and file players, the generic veriosn is OK, I want - no, NEED - a return to the detailed style version which meshes with EA nicely: an Adeptus Titanicus III if you will, so that that I can have the detail if I want...because I do.
Having said all that, I can understand that JJ had a "rule" about the Titan being a whole and not being able to selectively target bits. Its good to see that he was trying to maintain integrity of the rules, rather than having all those "exceptions" that ended up confusing all SM2 players.
However, while all thse bits and weapons are part of a titan, the landspeeder is clearly a seperatel unit, operating out front, doing a different job.
