Were either Hammers or any Epic forces designed to take the nukes of an OGRE? 
One good Nuke Salvo could ruin the day for a lot of "tanks" etc.

Earth? what is earth? Everybody knows that the human homeworld is WaterSpike, in the alpha centauri system. And what is that "imperium" that you talk about? 
Health and sixes,

L4,
Unless something new comes up in the fourth book, I just re-read the first three (thanks to our discussions in the other thread ) and they have something that helped them pass through fall out and background radiation, not be in the center of the strike.
So, massed Armor would be a great target for an OGRE.

I'm trying to remember what story it was in ... yes ... here in the story "The Interrogation Team" ... in the "Caught in the Crossfire" book. They use the term "NUC Damper Fields". Does not go into much detail, but it says " protected by damper fields which inhibited fission bombs and the fission triggers of thermonuclear weapons." So I guess that would make a target harder to NUC ... When it comes to Nucs, any little bit helps !

Hi!
This is part of the old fluff I really liked. So much so I was thinking on an army list of advanced non-imperial humans. Something like the Ogre-related forces.
Primarch |
I like that idea. I never thought of an army list for non-imperium humans. I was only thinking in terms of having them in fluff.

There were some army lists for netepic and use of Ogres.
Imagine a new human empire with ogres at the front....

Hmmmm.... could be interesting.

Hi!
They are in the files section currently in the netepic yahoo list.
It has a nice fluff story at the beginning too.
