I think that the smoke emanates straight up from the whole circular template, but stops if/when it hits a scenery element. That's what the...
Points would have to be adjusted accordingly. Broadly, the idea would be that HI are slow, tough, hackable units, and LI are fast, fragile,...
Wikipedia seems to be saying there's no such thing as Medium Infantry: "In the Western world..., infantry are categorised as either heavy...
Works for me! I had wondered if the CC mode was only Disposable in the sense that once you use all three charges in BS mode, you then can't use...
It looks to me like it is - I can't find a rule that says that using the trench-hammer in CC mode doesn't use up one of its uses. Just wondering...
Oh god, yeah, missions like looting and sabotaging would be completely impossible with 5-order groups. Even a Rasyat wouldn't be able to do it.
Depends on the faction. My current thinking on N4 is that the second turn player really needs to know their opponent's faction well enough to...
"The Trigger Area excludes any areas in Total Cover from the Blast Focus of the Small Teardrop Template"
"Activation zone" is a phrase that doesn't exist in the rules, or indeed anywhere outside your posts. The rules define the Trigger Area. The...
And they even fixed this in N4. It's now called "silhouette contact" instead of "base to base contact" (they missed a couple of spots in the...
It's an open question whether the preemptive shot can be declare while scenery is blocking the LoF, or while the declaring trooper is inside...
And even if it did, it would still explode from its base.
That's a good point, but there are exceptions. Speculo (because of Regeneration), Tohaa impersonators, Nahab, Fractaa, Ragik are some examples...
For this discussion, I don't put any of those in the base Ghulam category, because none of them has a Naffatun equivalent. If you bring, say, the...
If you declare Dodge while in LoF of the enemy, they can ARO shoot you. It will be a f2f roll against your Dodge. If you win the f2f, you make...
Well, at least I think I've finally figured out what the OP is arguing. He's saying that to determine trigger area, you place the small teardrop...
I think I'd agree with that - 90% sounds about right to me :-) To be fair, in HB I'm never taking the base Ghulam either, any more than I'm...
From the Mines rule (https://infinitythewiki.com/Mines): The Trigger Area of a Mine (whether it is a Camouflage Marker or a Mine Token) is the...
I think you've convinced me. I'd say the Climb+ trooper can declare Dodge on the wall (short skills are allowed), and if successful, can do its...
These are good points, but I can see counterpoints. The closest the rules come to defining the capitalized word Movement is the Movement label,...
