    I remember my 1st Chaos Dwarf battle. It was a 3-way battle. High Elves, Chaos, and I was playing Chaos Dwarfs. Turn 1 Chaos play cast Arnzipal's Black Horror on the High Elf lord. Failed to dispel it. The commander failed a strength test and got eaten. The horror moved on and ate his hero and sliced through a bunch of other units. The high elf player who has emotional issues yelled some obscenities and swatted his own high elf units off the table and stormed off. So I had to pick up my high elves off the floor (Because they didn't actually buy them) and it was then just a 2 army battle.

    Fun game.
    It seems like you play charge against an opponent that flees wrong.
    P.129 "If the charging unit does not make contact with the fleeing unit, it moves forward its full charge range. It has not made a failed charge - the charge target ran away."
    It could matter a bit, full charge forward may pull a unit way out of position.

    Happy to hear you are rebasing everything, Steve. I don't see any negativess of using old square bases when you have proper trays AND adapters (to use with singular models), but rounds are a no-no in my book. The only ok-ish round bases are 25mm since they can be placed upon more or less proper trays, but then there's a problem with adapters. I mean I know you can just place them on squares, but it doesn't look good.

    I know Steve is dubious about cav with frenzy like wild riders, but wouldn't the fact that they are fast cav help mitigate someone putting a unit in front of them to force a charge since they get a free pivot up to 90 degrees even if they march. You could just point them away to make it hard to get a unit in their arc.

    The chaos dwarf artillery seems very killy but probably best against an opponent who is marching against you… their artillery is not as long range as other armies… a great might take out that big mortar in one or two shots. And you can get almost 3 great cannons for the same price…

    I see a lots of interpretation about shouting capable to shoot multiple rank into large target because large target can be seen over other models.
    I kinda fail to see why this render multiple rank shooting possible.
    pg 137 the "check line of sight" section doesn't say "every model that can draw line of sight can shoot" but "every model IN THE FIRST RANK that can draw line of sight can shoot"
    And the rules carry on by saying normally only model in the first rank can shoot period, not that if the model in the second rank can somehow see they suddenly are allowed to shoot.
    Going further into it if you look at the oddball stuff pg143 there is a section about multiple rank shooting that says:
    Usually, only the models in the unit's front rank can shoot. There are however exceptions:
    - shooting from hill
    - volley fire.
    And that is all for exception, large target is not listed here as an exception neither having line of sight from the second rank.

      Indeed it isn't clear in the shooting section. However in page 103 Models and Unit Facing we have the following 2 passages:
      If no such line can be drawn to the other model due to
      intervening terrain, or without crossing over or through
      another model, there is no line of sight
      and
      Note that models and units always block line of sight. Therefore, it
      is normally only the models in the front rank of a unit that have a
      line of sight
      With the implication that the REASON that as you say "every model in the first rank..." is because of standard line of sight and the rest of the rule is just heuristics. Am I confident enough to rule definitively it either way? No. And we won't know for sure unit an official statement.

    • @dariomartinez5214
      @dariomartinez5214 8 месяцев назад +2

      It does not say "every model in the firt rank...".
      What it's literally written is "In order to shoot at something, a model must be able to draw
      a line of sight to it".
      Which IMO is the main rule here.
      Then, it says
      "Often, not every
      model in a unit will be able to draw a line of sight to the target.
      Therefore, when shooting with a unit you must determine line
      of sight for each and every model in the front rank."
      Which I think is just a simple remark that you have to check LoS from every single model in the unit, not that only first rank can shoot. Although I agree that it could be written better.
      Finally, reading the LoS restrictions in pg 103 and the Large Target rule in pg 172, I would say that every rank can shoot to a large target.

      @charlescassier3199 8 месяцев назад

      @@peisenxu952 my issue with this interpretation is that you are making a assumption on writer intention/reasons.
      The RAW reading of it is pretty strict and clear and just go against your interpretation. Because yes the line of sight explanation states that you can't see anything from the second rank but the shooting section says that in order to shoot you need:
      - a line of sight
      - being in the first rank
      Those are separate clauses that are not linked to each other on the rules. Stating that the reason you must be in the first rank is for line of sight and that if you could manage to draw a line of sight from the second rank you can wave the first rank restrictions require you to make an interpretation on the intend that go against pure RAW.
      If your interpretation where right they should just be the first clause of having line of sight with maybe a NB to remember you that second rank can't see through the first rank.
      Also looking at the almanacs article on shooting they also say only the first rank can shoot period.
      Worth what it worth but that is the closest from an official source we have on the subject.

    • @charlescassier3199
      @charlescassier3199 8 месяцев назад

      @@dariomartinez5214 it does say that on top of having lone of sight you need to be in the first rank to shoot.
      It doesn't say that the reason for being in the first rank is that the second rank will have it line of sight blocked.
      There is a difference between writing : "you must determine line of sight for each and every model in the fronr rank" and "you must determine line of sigh for each and every model, remember that model in the first rank block line of sight to model in the second rank."
      RAW the being in the first rank condition is its own separate condition that has nothing to do with line of sight.
      Linking them together requires an interpretation on intent and the golden rules is that you should not interpret the intent ever if RAW is clear enough.

    Catching the post game chat on wizards.. I agree level 3/4. Needs to cost more base points (or at least level 2s cheaper )represent the rarity of high level wizards beyond the 0-1 per 1k. I think the WAP way is too much the other way, making higher levels pointless. I’d rather see a cap on the number of spells a wizard can stop/cast per round. So although a lower level will struggle to “duel” with a more powerful level multiple lower levels will overwhelm a higher levels ability to stop everything..
