8th Edition

I liked lapping around.

Might be an oo er :wink;m::But with theproblems we have now in regards to clipping, tactical wheeling, charge arcs, the last thing we need is to bring this back....IMO..

[Funkadelic Erik]

Still liked it though.

Most of the current problems with the game can be resolved by people not playing like tournament dwelling bellends.

Or make perfectly acceptable rules (ie tactical wheeling) more clear (ie not in a 2nd FAQ) so people who don't know the rules, won't start throwing wobblies at me, when I'm about to screw their gunline over....

[Funkadelic Erik]

Heres the thing though - if a rule tactical wheeling is considered a problem, then don't do it.

Problem solved. Most of these problem rules fall into the "tactical and perfectly valid if I do it, utterly broken and WAAC attitude if the opponent does it" anyhow.

The joy of a friendly game. Don' t take ott armies, and don't play as though your VERY LIFE depends on it and it becomes a lot more enjoyable.

[Funkadelic Erik]

I think that the prospective savage orc box has been shown to be a fallacy.

HE vs Skaven in the 8th Ed Box set...?

Could work I suppose, different, wonder if they will put a HellPit in there..?

[Veldemere]

Whilst excited about the prospect of the new Rhinox kit, I am more than happy with the FW ones (if you can get over the base size issue) and they are about the same price as GW would do, also if there is any truth behind that then the new book must be out soon as they are currently only used in the scraplauncher.
