But not every faction has Total Immune attack pieces to deal with them, if that's what's meant to deal with them... Moreover, it's not just...
I don't understand how that counters any of my point. Well, sort of. The argument was whether symbiomates passively made the bearers immune to...
Flash pulses are a significant part of ARO game for some factions; it's not an insignificant benefit. It all comes back to the idea that Total...
The fact that Tohaa are the faction most optimized for competitive play means there's likely *someone* in the development process who's a huge...
Well, the top-performing tournament factions (Tohaa and ALEPH) don't make heavy use of flash pulse puts in my experience, so it can't be too bad....
Yeah, seems really powerful. Essentially saying that you can't use cheap defensive units to handle symbiomate attack pieces. Questionable balance...
Looking at it, I dunno if it did. It *should* be in JSA, however - if it isn't that's a mistake in theory if not in practice.
So ijw ruled that having Symbiomates now makes the bearer immune to non-lethal weapons, and they don't trigger the SymbioMate (sans E/M I guess)....
Who created those source files? Did they create them right before DBS dropped and then forget to update them? Well excuse me for wanting a more...
I don't know how you'd confirm that without asking the people in question.
But that itself could be a copy/paste error from the original release of DBS (and likely is).
That you seem to be forcing a rules interpretation that isn't confirmed by CB. Do you play Tohaa or something?
Doesn't change the issue I just pointed out.
@DukeofEarl @ijw You'll notice in the effects box that it says the SymbioMate "provides its user" with a series of effects, then in the sentence...
If they addressed that before they addressed things like Posthumans that's wrongheaded. Besides, it's not like all armies have a trooper with...
Neither of you are an official CB source, though. If it's true it's a significant nerf to Flash Pulses that makes me question their playtesting...
That's not what the use of "or" in that bullet point means.
The Nexus spec-op profile doesn't get a points discount for already having hyper-dynamics.
Spiral getting a massive buff after that batrep then lol
I was hoping that they'd go for more of a "T-800" look rather than "robo-geisha" when they do a resculpt.
