So, the issue isn't the Kroot, which was my point. You object to someone taking 9 Orcas, then flying around taking potshots at formations until they all get shot down. ![]() Seriously, the Kroot have nothing to do with your argument. Somebody who is so inclined could have taken 9 Orcas from all the way back to at least version 3. However, again, to what purpose. Ok, so you dedicate 1/3 of your points the first turn to placing 9 BM and/or breaking a unit. It's a skimmer, it can be FF'd to death, it can be brought down by any decently ranged AT fire. Their slugs after they arrive on planet. So, your opponent pulls out his calculator, figures out where +33% of your points are and starts shooting. How many of those Orcas are going to be around for Turn 2? How about Turn 3? I hardly think this is a Code Red Home Security event. BTW, I think there's a huge difference in the firepower between a Hammerhead and an Orca. _________________ Honda "Remember Taros? We do" - 23rd Elysian Drop Regiment |

You are correct that this is an intellectual exercise at this point. I'm not claiming that it is definitely a problem and I don't think TRC is either. It just needs to be tested. I don't think any army list can be abused, though. Any army list can produce relatively extreme lists at this point, but that does not necessarily indicate they are abusive. _________________ Neal |
