Hm interesting. I guess the implications from having a ralley phase could be quite big. You can move units out of the way before they flee through your units, you can reposition bsb or general to "catch" them. Dont know if I like that you do not know if a unit ralleys or not before you start your movement. Knowing that a unit can do a countercharge next turn is important and if you know that the unit keeps fleeing you will move very differently. This makes it more and less controllable at the same time...

Shooting rules look straightforward and easy to use in games.

@tizianomerello6530 Ай бұрын

But in shooting you have to check still model by model?

@johnweig4667 Ай бұрын

Thanks. About shooting. Looks better but why not just take one point, the centre of the unit?

@markgcarroll Ай бұрын

That would only allow terrain with straight or convex edges and could discourage modelling.

Does "tall" count as "equal" or "higher" than other models in the same class (e.g. standard cav vs standard infantry) for shooting purposes?

@anderskorsback4104 Ай бұрын

My guess is that Tall as a rule has been removed. No need for it when there's a numeric size scale from 0 (swarms) to 5 (gigantic). Tall was always an awkward rule, being essentially like a half size category.

@@anderskorsback4104 did they share they will move to a numerical scale or are you making a suggestion?

@anderskorsback4104 Ай бұрын

@@AlexC90 that scale 0-5 was revealed in one of the forum posts. 0 is swarms, 1 is standard infantry, 2 is standard cavalry, 3 is large infantry, 4 is large cavalry, 5 is gigantic.

Guys anyone know if I got -1 or -2 to shoot even if I’m partially covered between another model that give me cover, or if I got LoS partially obscured i can free shoot?
