Interesting ideas Hena, I think you may have a point there about those hold actions and tyranid character.
Any more thoughts on gargoyles - it doesn't sound as though they had much of an effect on the t-bolts in this game?
Thanks for the report!

Thanks for the batrep Hena! I'll ponder your thoughts as well. I'm glad you could accept the Blast markers on Bugs as well, I know I had a lot of initial resistance too, but it looks like it may just work out! |

(Hena @ Jun. 17 2007,13:48) QUOTE One more thing. The engage on Hold should be a bit worse than just normal engage. Perhaps -1 to resolution or something, Since advance is a bit better than hold (not in shooting though, but it allows moving). Too much of a special rule, IMHO. The list already has too many multi-faceted special rules. |

A few notes based on the game. First, having Tyranids get BM and "almost-break" makes fighting the Nids feel very much like playing any Epic. With the old system, the Nids were very different -- they just kept coming. In this battle, I planned and executed many Engages just to win them and cause mindlessness. That would not have worked at all in the old system. However, the payoff for making a Nid formation go mindless is considerable lower than breaking a formation. They always rally. They sometimes spawn. I believe you still need to kill the synapse critters to win. I managed only a draw despite getting to call all the shots. I never lost initiative. I never failed to engage. I won all the firefights. But I didn't go after the synapses... |

Hena, the FS titan's name is General Judenits. These things are important, you know. |
