    Casualty removal

    Surely when removing casualties, in terms of Models, we should not be removing Models from a unit that were not in "Range" and could not be seen by any Model in the firing Unit. If a Model is out of...

    Hi Be ZurKur.

    I have had a good look at the rules and it is my understanding of them, that what you say is correct. They talk about UNITS being selected for firing and for targets, but when the...

    You have a good point here and I shall have to get back to you, as we are about to have breakfast.

    However, I have always thought that it is utterly wrong for troops that cannot be seen and are...

    If the Aeldari Rangers choose to use the stratagem "Pathfinders" it says that "...Attacks that target that unit in this phase will only hit on rolls of a 6, irrespective of any modifiers..." Do...
  5. Consolidation and Attacks on Vehicles

    What happens to the troops inside a vehicle, if it is attacked in the Fight Phase, when the Consolidation stage of the Fight Phase is reached?_

    Have we lost our way with 40K'

    I think we have lost our way with the 40K rules, in that we are no longer playing a "Wargame", but playing a game of Monopoly, collecting as many points as we can, as we travel over the tabletop. I...
  7. Alternative Movement has to be scrapped

    Alternative movement has to go! It has to be replaced by simultaneous Game Turns, in which both sides get to Move; Fire and engage in Hand to Hand Combat at the same time. There is nothing more...

    My Two Main Gripes: Morale and Cover

    My two main gripes about the 40K rules are that Morale is really non existent and ineffective and the rules for Cover are so "shallow" that you might as well not have cover at all and then, terrain...
  9. Hordes and Smaller Groupings

    Yes, you do have a point and I do have an Ealdari army. However, I tend to use the infantry in small groups, as I think they have more mobility and flexibility that way.

    Ynnari: Strength from Death

    Could somebody confirm my understanding of how this works?

    All 3 of the Ynnari units can use this, when any unit (friend or foe) within 7 inches is destroyed and it is only one of the 3 YNNARI...

    I agree that conscripts are the main problem, but how if we split the Astra Militarum into 3 units of 20, rather than 1 unit of 50. These 3 units could form a platoon structure. 3 units of 20 would...

    Voice of Command must Go!

    This special rule for the Astra Militarum must be scrapped, or all other armies must be allowed to use it, because it is distorting the whole aspect of the game. I have just witnessed an Astra...

    I think you have a point there, because I am currently playtesting my own rules that i have written for the Peloponnesian Wars. However, I do like playing 40K and I like the challenge it gives, after...
  14. The 40K rules need to be seriously revised.

    I have been wargaming for 50 years "...and it doesn´t seem a day..." and I can seriously say that the 8th Edition 40K rules are the worst I have ever played with. Myself and my two sons have...
