Hold a silhouette in the air, replace the relevant models with silhouettes, have a basic knowledge of geometry. It's doable. The only tricky part...
Nope. It actually makes the game more playable; how do you define a point strictly when most people can't hold a mini in exactly static position...
Sure, but if they say "I jump up just high enough to see model x's back arc" and you're playing with intent, then that's how far they jumped up....
@MikeTheScrivener a model's final position is not a quantum wobbly state, it muat be clearly defined, one way or another.
@theradrussian Whether you play with intent or not it's still a problem. Gotcha! players acting like their method solves this issue are full of crap.
In the meantime, what do we do about TO's forcing their house rules on people because they can't accept the clarity of the rules?
You're right. I'll post more when I have some time to properly formulate where I think the problem is.
That's only because the EVO bonus doesn't work during the Deployment Phase.
@tox Nothing in that wording says that the Reset allows you to avoid the Data Scan.
No. Standard resolution is neither of the rolls' success effects happen.
There are people who just don't care. Like CB, apparently.
I think it does. The rules just don't make sense in this context - they're contradictory.
No, more that the fireteam rules mesh poorly with Stealth and the basic ARO rules in this context.
@tox @Mahtamori That's all well and good but the section on ARO's in this context talks about "the model" not "a model" and so isn't really...
It cancels all the dice which are face to face with it. Dice shot at other targets don't matter.
To be frank, the rules don't cover this eventuality, and CB doesn't care to fix any of the many problems with the rules. This comes up every damn...
If they really wanted to be ballsy they should give the Guijia pilot Engineer.
There are exceptions - see: Dodge. I mean, it's also a face to face roll, so the basic rules apply. You don't get to move, though, which is...
That's not what effect means in the context of a tie. Check the basic FtF rules again.
The issue is that stating that it has no effect on a tie is the "as normal" resolution - if you look at the rules for ties it says "no effects are...
