Rules Discussion

Would definitely help. All we need is confirmation.

DK is correct: you can finish a team that is "under construction" if you lose a PF, you just can't start a whole new one from scratch.

[Marlin]

As has come up with the Coventry solution: A blockade was installed to impede movement of reinforcements, as it was just barely worth a battle, the reinforcements won this. However, it seems it did not impede movement anymore?

The reinforcements just moved on?

Is this now always so? Because it would change quite some things.

To be honest .25 FP of anything would be hard pressed to stop anything...Dave will probably have to post the answer you are looking for.  The call that was made since the DCMS units were on naval engagemnt was that they could engage then keep moving due to thier movement type and the distance tavelled I think but as I said he will have to clairify that.

[Fatebringer]

If someone did put a .25 Blockade up, it would only serve as a delaying tactic, but not against the rules. Per the rules there's a lot someone can do with .25 FP, proven heartily at Tamar when 7 x .25 FP mobile units (Cost 3 RP each) carried off Nuclear Strikes like Kamakaze pilots because the rules specifically state any mobile unit can carry the nukes.

[Marlin]

Thats correct, Fate. This seems quite overpowered but still are the rules. Now if its broken fix it, but for Coventry it might have still big impact. And for T45 as well.. urgs.

Hope Dave gets some time soon. As PMs are also still open. Not that much haste needed for them, but still.

Im just happy that Im no GM.

Just woke up. Going in to work for 10 hours of overtime now. Will try to crunch down PM backlog tonight.

Sorry I've been scarce guys, I just don't have the sort of free time I used to have 

[Marlin]

Hey, I would help if I could as I have kinda too much free time.. I guess I should look out for a job rather than watch here every hour, eh?

But working at Saturdays should be outlawed as inhumane...

I can only complain so much as it while I do have mandatory overtime I can schedule it however I want, so I wasn't forced to come in on Sat, but I could use the $$$ if you know what I mean LOL

Anyway, work done, dinner done, vodka in process, time to start doing some PMs

[Marlin]

Please do not forget the above rules thingy.

Got a question regarding Clan Capitals:

Those that got HW Capitals, what if they miss one hex of it?

If they lose their whole Capital, the result is obvious, what if they lose only one Hex to a Trial or sth?

There isn't a final rule for this yet, but for now I would say there would be no adverse effect as long as the majority of the zones on that planet are still owned by the faction which claims it as their capital.

I must refer to the Niops Raid incident.

A continued (for the invasion or basically all non-raid stuff) -1 to all rolls seems totally out of place. At least a codification would be good in the rules. As it has nothing to do with each other, I would opt against it, but if this will be a permanent rule, then it should be hardcoded.
