One thing I've decided to do was to ignore the rules about breaking detachments. I figure if a detachment has tons of blast markers on it it is pretty much useless and you'll move them out of the fight anyway. Plus it gets rid of the Leadership tests which don't scale well. Let me know how it goes. ... |

Quote (primarch @ 17 2005 Mar.,01:19)Welcome to the forums Hedgehobbit, by any chance is you full name Aaron Teske? Nope, sorry. Regarding detachment sizes. We found pretty early on that huge detachments were sub-optimal. There isn't much point to go past 15 units (to get the +1). We tended to field... |

The EA way of making detachments is better for tournament play (like I'm ever going to do that) but I liked being able to field a detachment in Epic that is the exact mix of troops that you have in your favorite Warhammer 40K army. I bought an Epic IG army just so I can field my 40K IG army. It has ... |

Quote (nealhunt @ 14 2005 Mar.,21:02)Hedgehobbit: I think EA is an improvement on E40K and, believe me, I was a staunch defender of E40K when it first came out. It has the same speed of play and tactical "realism" as E40K, but I believe it has more flavor - a great difference in the way ... |

Quote (Markconz @ 14 2005 Mar.,05:35)There's a bunch of other stuff there you may find interesting such as E40k battle reports. Found the site. I remember some of those rules from the old Epic egroup. However, they didn't mention the changes that I've seen about allocating hits. Anyone remember what... |

A wife-mandated closet cleaning lead me to find all my old Epic:40K, SM and TL* stuff. We had fun with E40K for awhile so I started looking for some of the E40K web pages I remember (like E41K for instance). I stopped playing E40K around the time of Epic Magazine #2 when it appeared the game was hea... |
