but would a 2 tray unit be worth it compared to a 2x2 tray unit I mean I just don't see the benefit of not using 2x2 as a min unit.

WOOHOO!

Good morning @Elrad!

Late to the party, hop into the So this is a thing post.

I suppose that would be a good inclusion but I am not sure why you would want to field multiple 2 tray units of spearmen or reanimates, 8 health on a front line unit seems very meh-tastic. I understand the desire for the additional tray as kind of a principle matter, but I don't necessarily see the practical applications. I mean maybe you could have a 2 tray in front of a larger group to shield them from a head on attack, act as a tarpit then die then the large group charges over the corpses of their fallen companions?

Oh I am more excited than ever. Especially if the guy is cool and responds to @Elrad with scans of all the cards. Because then we can get some serious theorycraft on! ?

Yeah the first thing I'm going to be doing when I get these things all put together is priming them, I was amazed how much of a difference priming my stormtroopers in IA made...I'll paint them also but I'm going to start playing as soon as the primer dries lol

I think that is the point though they go in a straight line and smash the things they come across

Actually it looks like one of his modifiers are a reform if I'm not mistaken

So I think it is amusing (though completely coincidental) that after we have spent weeks CALMLY DISCUSSING the various pricing matter of this game compared to other miniatures games including a decent amount of focus on X-wing as being not as cheap as it seems, FFG releases a news article about how to build a tournament team for $101...Its a good article just has very suspicious timing...are we being watched? I'M ASKING YOU COFFEE POT!?!? lol

I'm a fan of trumpets, turns not slowing your movement

I understand completely the it is a matter of personal taste. I'm just saying that I definitely prefer the 28mm scale. I'm sure there are some really great 10 or 15mm systems however I just don't think i can every bring myself to play them. In the same vein of preference a HUGE draw for me to Runewars is the lack of rolling 1000 dice only to have 3 do anything. I like 28mm Streamlined systems I suppose...lol

yup

They are really making it clear that he is a slow lumbering brute! I like it!

our little Wiki is growing up so fast ::sniffle::(ours is an extremely loose term as my contribution thus far I think has been 'Thats a great idea!" lol)

I would love a scan of the rules!... though depending on what agreement he had with FFG that may violate something (don't really see why it would but I'm cautious) I know a buddy and I are going to be doing a podcast and battle reports of this game once it is launched so we would kinda like to know the rules for the BR of the launch adventure...

I think those letters are just the colors so you can match them if you are color blind

I wish this guy didn't take the pictures of the cards at such an extreme angle...they would be so much easier to read... @Elrad Think you could reach out to him and ask if he can take some additional pictures of the upgrades and such for our Wiki page? (as you speak the language)

ah cool that you for clarifying that!

what is the icon on the rune golem card after brutal? I can't see if it matches up with anything and have been trying to figure it out since the first reveal...

I wish I could but I'm at work lol...

Yeah it looks like there is a 32 page lore book,

sadly I'm at work so i can't really decipher what all the upgrades say but I do see a gear piece called "Shield Wall" i'd like to know what that does. It also looks like the siege models and heroes both get unique upgrades.

Probably just to reflect how much different utility certain units have, like you said this is a big slow hard hitting guy so he doesn't do much more than that

Yeah google translated this for me, It my be lost in a bad translation but his tone in writing seems less than excited... I'm mainly excited about seeing the models.
