| Quote (Hena @ 29 Nov. 2005 (16:00)) | | I would rather not. Two variants is enough. The point of epic is to keep the small details away and just show the larger pattern. |
Oh, the "other options" wouldn't be in the Tourney list, but in the "Collectors" section.
I think Screamer-Killer and Venomspitter should be the only Tourney options!

Very nice collectors stats. however whhat do SM and AW mean? I assume FF and CC. Thnough I think the Bile beast should get disrupt for its FF and CC attacks, due to toxic miesma.

"SMall arms" and "Assault Weapons"... not sure why I didn't use "SA" for small arms though... *laugh*
Disrupt in engages is a weird thing, since blastmarkers aren't placed until after the combat resolves, things can get odd.

I know but it is a way to representing the chocking fog of toxic spores they produce. All it takes is rolling a different colour die for the bile beasts attacks and placinging BMs next to the formation when it hits, though an easier way would be to ups its CC value to 3+.

| Quote (Markconz @ 29 Nov. 2005 (23:11)) | | Also I think it would be a good idea to leave 5.6.2 (or are we up to 5.6.3??) ?around for a bit longer - so people actually have a chance to playtest this list more and get a better feel for it rather than changing things after a couple games. |
You're right Markconz, both in on the concept of "resource drain" that units place on the enemy and leaving a list unchange for a while to playtest. 5.6.3 is the latest I've posted.
In fact, I wasn't planning on posting any more changes until we hear from Maksim about Jervis's email and such.
Keep gaming!

) ?In other words we can't just measure carnis effectiveness by what they kill, but also by how much attention and resources they draw from the enemy.
