    I loved the full reserves back in 5th edition. I would destroy each unit that came on piece by piece, cause no one EVER had them all come in at once hehe. I have one friend notorious for having his stuff come in turn 4, even now...

    Fun fact, the whole "hah you have nothing to shoot at" gimmick is still possible, it just takes an entire droppod army to pull off. You are allowed to keep all your droppods in reserve, and even if you go second, you will not automatically have lost at the end of your player's turn, as the victory conditions state that the "auto loss for not having anything on the table" happens at the end of a game turn, and a game turn is defined in the general concepts as "the point where both players have had a turn".

    Your turn 1 half your droppods arrive so you will have something on the table at the end of the first game turn.

    I only use bare minimum reserves now; too risky and without that assault from reserve you are going to suffer what is effectively 2 rounds of shooting before you get into combat. That's fine for IG or other shooty armies that aren't going to assault, but castrated Genestealers to the point of being ordinary foot soldiers.

    Thing is those kroots are more than 2" apart and you can see that from the picture.

    So not legal.

    I expect they're borderline close enough. I'm sure the TO would've checked to make sure. 2" is quite a distance when you literally have the 2 bases just touching it.

    You can hold your entire army in reserves?!

    So you were physically present, and not only was the only one competent enough to check coherency but also didn't tell anyone that you checked it and they were too far apart once you did? 2" is a lot more than I think you think it is.
