V3 CDs v Chaos Warriors

I'd say that my perhaps-overly-careful movement phases came about from the following: 1) not being able to shoot if friendly models are in the kill zone. Mix that with trying to get some screening from hob speedbumps or shooting past fleeing hobs, and it can get tricky. 2) enemies coming in from the flank - requiring a change of facing, expansion of frontage, and some wheeling to the extent possible. Sometimes the wheel comes before change of facing, sometimes after. 3) Move or retreat to get 9" away on an enemy with 8" move, or 11" away when there is 10" move. 4) Retreat to get at least half an enemy's charge distance away, to maintain a stand and shoot reaction. #3 and #4 don't require much finesse, but when they are combined with some wheeling to maximize the kill box, it can add some time to the movement phase. Part of my caution also came from the fact that blunderbusses can put some serious hurt on infantry, and I didn't want to just go so fast as to be imprecise and/or give the impression that I'm just pushing my guys around to where they can do the most damage without really measuring. On an angled wheel, even 1/4 of an inch can result in an extra 3 or 4 enemy models being hit. The same goes for a turn, move, turn maneuver. Read Main Topic

by allanmcnab (Posted Thu Jul 02, 2009 1:09 pm) What I was talking about was the need for only 1 figure in the target unit to be in range of the firing unit even though the entire target unit could be killed, rather than the firing unit only being only partially within range of the target unit.

Actual Kiwi Flight Safety Video

by subversive (Posted Thu Jul 02, 2009 12:55 pm) If you can manage at least 3 weeks in NZ (4-5 days to recover from the inversion of your circadian rhythm plus enough time to enjoy the place) , and a week of recovery time on the other end (it's worse going back), NZ is worth all 26 hours of transit time. My only advice: wear sunblock. Even if you're black. I blistered after 15 minutes in the sun. You know that hole in the ozone layer? It's real, it's over NZ, and it sucks ass if you're a pasty ass white boy. Read Main Topic

Hobgoblin Warrior and Wolf Rider comments here

by Larro (Posted Thu Jul 02, 2009 7:54 am) I was just going along with Weakland's suggestion because it makes as much sense as Demon Eyes on Hobgobbos. In all seriousness, it's good to see the possibility of 10 man Archer units back on the table. More importantly however, I feel there needs to be a better distinction between Rabble and Hobgoblins. If Rabble were unarmored and dirt-cheap, opposed to a Hobgoblin which cost close to twice as much for armor but only a marginal increase in stats, I think we'd have 2 legitimate unit choices. Right now, if Hobgobbos stay at 5 pts., there's never going to be a reason to take them as opposed to Rabble when you realize you get essentially 2 fully-ranked Rabble units for as much or less than the equivalent in Hobgobbos. Neither unit is really there to kill anything, but just to tie down secondary units, and it isn't worth paying a premium for Hobgoblins when Rabble exist. I think my proposed suggestions re: 4 point Hobgoblins and 5 point Hobgoblin Archers are more than legitimate. If Rabble were to be reduced a point, possibly to 2 pts. per model without armor, obviously min. size 20+, and include the forced purchase of the Overseer / Slaver, you'd have a ranked unit of about 48-52 pts. that had no animosity and no armor, opposed to the same amount of bodies of Hobgoblins costing significantly more points (80) and HAS animosity, but gains a 4+ HTH save in exchange. I just don't see how any of this strikes you as unfair Kevin, or as me having my cake and eating it too. Trust me, I'm not lining up to take Hobgoblins either way, but I feel that at 80 pts., they're a choice vs. Rabble, whereas at 100 pts or more, they're no longer even worth considering because of their Animosity and the fact they're amazingly overpriced compared to their Goblin brothers. - Larry Read Main Topic
