Right.

Listen, I really think this 6' coherency thing should only be brought up when someone wants to deepstrike twenty-four feet away from the rest of their army. It is essentially a less restrictive form of "No Flank March" mentality, the intent is to keep the game flowing and not have a giant clusterfuck of people spread out like popcorn strewn across the table.

If someone is Lashed out of coherency, or obviously is trying to move forward while his first five vehicles are sitting in his deployment zone immobilized, he isn't really slowing down the game. As well, folks with flyers should be able to fly wherever they want, and tactical manuvers which might stretch your army to a radius of 7 or 8 feet shouldn't be restricted.

Just so we stop the blatant douchebaggery, that's all.

Brad.  Please allow me to assist:

Orcs try to charge - get lashed 12" back - get shot - break - and run away!


commas, dashes, semi-colons, periods; I don't care.  Just use something.  Anything.  Please.

:)

when you lash a unit, you're not allowed to move the squad out of coherency. so it seems reasonable to me that you wouldn't be allowed to move a unit out of army coherency.


rule #1. don't be a dick

rule #2. don't forget rule #1 when you're drunk

rule #3. get drunk

Well stated, well thought out, and to the point.

NEXT ISSUE!

In the Apoc book, it says that Fast Superheavy Vehicles can move 24".  I'm assuming we are all on the same page--

this is now 18", right?
