I don't know what you are referring to about the Altar stats.
If that is how the Icon bearers are modelled in the other list, I think that might be fine.

The Redux list added an option to change the Altar to a 25cm, 5+RA unit. I think that should be kept as well.

Ah, yes, I think this is apt.

And now, to something completely different -

About the "Technical" name. I am more of a historybuff than stringent grimdark-apologetic so I am not particularly bothered with that name. I am not necessarily for a change to a more GW-esque name (including no doubt doom-, rot-, currupt-... or some such contraption). That would suggest either a common design that spans multiple local and otherwise unrelated insurgencies - not very chaos or 'armed rabble' I think, or a list that is specific to a very local campaign (which I find is not at all in line with the stated intent of the list). The whole purpose of this list is rather more generic.

Wikipedia-studying the name 'technical' and it's origin, it seems to stem from a Somalian setting as either a reference to how such vehicles were financed from diverted civilian funds, or the firm/organization that originally produced the vehicles. In line with my reasoning above, I don't think that this fits very well with the intention of the list.

Accordingly, if any change is to occur, I would rather suggest any of the prevalent and more generic 'improvised fighting vehicle' or simpler 'gun truck' or perhaps a combination of the two.

Do we really have to nitpick on names? Like technically we can if you guys really want to.

So, did anything happen here? Going to play a game Wednesday and I thought I could test the latest version.

New England is getting the rest of our games in. We're playing this Saturday so I hope to get 1-2 reports done. Redux list with LatD stats (plus altar option) and +25 point icon is what we're using.

OK. So I just substitute the stats bar the altars and the +25 icon then.

...oh... and ist that the UK or the NetEA version? So very difficult to understand anything without very detailed instructions with all these variants...

We were going by the NetEA LatD. Not sure how the UK list differs from it.

Great! I'll go with that then. I don´t think this means anything for my army other than the marching allowed but -5cm (to 15) for the PlagueTower.

OK, last the reports are up. I'll be putting together a thread for the rest of the ERC and we'll see what they say. If approved, I figured we'd put together some playtest changes here and see about getting those approved after they sit for a year.

I did a short test too, but it was against a very inexperienced player and only 1500 pts, so it most likely should not be used for evaluation. Still - nothing struck me as odd. It never has with this list to be honest...
