Great video series, so clearly explaining the changes. Looking forward to trying 3.0 out.

Very interesting. I am afraid however this is going to promote light troops severely. Also considering maximum charge ranges are reduced, they can get away easier now.

As I understand this LT mocement was also been adressed. They can no longer make any number of reforms during movement. Anyway the most import question is who has LT in 3.0.

Those changes seam very fun. I am very eager to try them out. Will there still be the rule that no model can move further than its march value? That was usually super hard to measure if the move was kind of weird and i think I would like to see it gone.

I don’t get the change in how wheel measuring works. Looks the same

@AlexC90 13 күн бұрын

I think it's indeed the same as how most people play it in 2.0 although technically that always wasn't 100% accurate. Doing so in 2.0 sneaks in a few % of extra distance. In 3.0 will simple be accurate. Following the rules as written in 2.0 is nearly impossible since you need to continually measure the arc not a straight line.

@@klaudel606 and that’s why we changed it. Wheels were often not being done correctly. So we altered the rules to reflect the reality and speed up game play! The other big change is the focus on the front rank. The unit is imagined to snake and follow the path of the front, not have its rear swing around unrealistically. We hope this helps with immersion.
