Yeah five guided shots per unit per turn I believe. DP, I think your read on it is exactly right. I remember we had a game a few weeks ago where we had to look a lot of this up but I think we came to those same conclusions. Guided is scary because it can negate total cover, but it's not a strategy I use very often (despite having Traktor Mul) because it takes so much to get a mark on a target and then drop bombs on them. When forward observing you often expose yourself to a lot of AROs and it very often takes a few attempts to get it in.

I know the game has been around forever but I finally picked up a copy. I'm hooked. I got two games last night. I almost bought "the big box" with all the expansions, but went with the little box for half the price. It came with The River and The Abbot, which are nice. What expansions do you like? I read a few lists online and it didn't seem like there was much consensus.

Gotta miss this one.

Ugh - there used to be a TAG for Combined Army called a Caskuda that did exactly that. It could drop on top of one of your guys and do a ton of damage, and then just wreck everything. It's one of the big reasons I took a couple years off the game. It's gone now though :)

I did see a battlefoam infinity bag like the one I have there a while ago, not sure if its still there

If you guys havent been to Red Castle lately stop in, they just got tons and tons of infinity stuff. Starters for most sectorials and vanilla armies, a lot of swc packs and some blisters as well as a yu jing tag and a few other things.

I did let him know, thanks though!

Had to drop out due to this mountain of papers I need to cover in red ink. I will be there Sunday though with my non-hacking Ariadna.

I've been wanting to start Haqq eventually, but I can't not buy that Hunzakut. A collection has to start somewhere I guess! The idea to use her as Chasseur is brilliant, she even has a similar cap. I'll do that for now.

Kingdom rush is a pretty great tower defense game they have. You could just download it for apple stuff though.

Goddamn those are beautiful models.

Eric, will you be there early this week? I could come in and do some chores a little early.

Great find!

Just curious, were you able to get your hands on a father knight model or do you proxy? I think I'll just use my Santiago as a Father Knight.

They're usually allowed in tournaments/escalation league and campaigns. I like them quite a bit! I tend to think too many xp points is a bad thing. The most common use for them is to give them chain of command so that you've effectively got two LTs on the board, though I usually make them a cheap doctor/engineer with a bump to willpower if I can afford it. And maybe mimetism! Or minelayer. I like them a lot. Maybe we can do a campaign at the clubhouse eventually. I'm always down for a game with them too, they do add something nice to the game. I've heard the pros at red castle complain that they can just plug the weaknesses of any army, or that sometimes they can be too powerful.

Looks great! You even have LoF, cool!

These look great! Excellent highlighting.

I've been meaning to hobby-blog a bit on here about my painting and terrain experiments. Now I have to figure out how to take pictures...

Oops, you're right, sorry! I'm just relearning the link stuff.

I was thinking: it is common for people who use hidden deployment from TO to just tell another player who is impartial where their hidden dude is. What if opponents both tell the same person: for example, I play Seth and he and I both choose to have our TO trooper on the highest building and we both tell Eric. I think if this happens, Eric should, at the start of round one, declare that our two TO troops "bump in to eachother" and are both revealed, or at least left in marker state. Even better we could say that they both get a face to face roll against each other as if in ARO . This way the person going second isnt screwed in player one's first turn. The idea behind this reveal thing is to limit our impulse to just hide a guy on the highest building and reveal him at the end of turn three, thus kind of auto winning, but more than that I think its just kind of funny.

Im no master but I think KoW is a great system and Im not impressed with Sigmar. Not sure im interested in tournaments but I would vote KoW.

Great work!

I'm just thinking of my rocket launchers (Traktor Muls). MRL means rocket launcher right? Maybe they're not even rockets. They look like it though. Well they can do spec fire. Bad idea though with their super low BS.

Yeah I think just rocket launchers and grenades, just not missles. DP, I never spec fired against you anyhow (though I think I could of), they were all shots from that were forward observed.

Yep!
