[The Trampoline]

Teh new FAQ allows High Elves to take unlimited Rare choices within the 25% so in 2000 points you could have 5 bolt throwers. You might want to limit it to no triple rare for them or something as you could fit in 3 bolt throwers at 1500points.

Also why the no magical equipment on unit champs other than weapons and armour, is this just to stop Ring of Hotek, bit harsh on High Elves if it is.

[bart]

My thoughts exactly.

[khaosgoblin]

I have changed the HE rare to three & special to four.

Gonna leave the champion rule as it is, as there are plenty of cheap nasty combos for ultra fast elves now & I don think they need any more help.

Tbh, I don't think there's any need to comp HE bolt throwers any more, they already count towards the shot cap and they can't fire once they've lost one crewman!

[bart]

Que? Where did you get this from? That screws them up big time.

Would that be after they lose one or two wounds then? And are they two or three wounds? Has anybody found the 'definitive' answer yet?

And I thought for a moment the new rules were rather unambiguous...

[maelzch]

No definitive answer as to if they have 2 or 3 wounds yet.

The bit about BTs only being able to fire with two or more crew is in the rulebook bit about them

[khaosgoblin]

I have had some feedback on too many restrictions for an event so early into 8th & have now simplified the pack to just four restrictions with the reasoning below.

No special characters - simply because a lot of people dont use them & dont know what they do.
Shooting cap of 40 shots over 18" - to restrict boring gun lines
No Double rare or triple special - to promote variety in armies
10% Lords - just to ensure that more points are spent on the armies

I will resnd the pack & current entrants on Monday.

one last thing mate - the bit about all hills block LoS, that doesn't really fit with the 8th ruleset/TLoS.

(I can't remember how big the hills at the MK club are though)

The problem with hills is that most have been modelled to be flat & player friendly & are in the main shorter than most infantry (which makes them pointless), to overcome this until new appropriate terrain can be built hills will be treated as "blocks line of site"

Also on terrain now that difficult ground does not exist (but we have loads) we have added "hazardous terrain" to follow the rules for a non aquatic marsh representing, very rocky, lava, & other general hazards.

All other terrain will follow standard rules for 8th.

Hope all that makes sense.
