Draft Rules

[kojibear]

Just wanted to ask what base size and shape - if any - is suitable for Hunters of Ruin? Cheers.

Three feet square and shaped like an elephant dancing the flamenco.

Whatever looks appropriate I guess.

Darn it! I knew the giraffe doing the samba was a bad idea! Have to rebase everything now.

Cheers mate.

The Draft Rules have been update a little in the first post.

As the Human Mercs now have a full Faction List (Malakarian Defenders), the old get-you-by list has been removed.

So is a malacara like a samba or a flamenco? I was thinking about getting into this, but now it sounds like I'd have to dance!

It's funny, I'd always pictured you as the dancing type. Standing in front of shop windows practicing your moves, heading down to the disco on a Friday night, maybe a spot of ballroom dancing on a Saturday. No?

Oh well, you can play without needing to dance if you want to. It's your call.

Unlike Age of Sigmar, where dancing is mandatory, apparently.

I was going to laugh until I saw this:

If you are dancing while rolling The Masque of Slaanesh’s attacks, you may reroll misses. Reroll failed to-wounds if you get your opponent to join in.

Oh, yes indeed. I ain't joking. Dancing. It's in The Rules. Screw you if you're in a wheelchair - we don't want your sort playing age of Sigmar anyway. And anybody who can't grow a moustache? You're out too (yes, moustaches are in the rules, or so the net tells me.) And you have to shout "Waaaagh!" When you play orks (sorry, oorucks). So, no girls or shy people need apply, either, please...

There's a line between "fun" and "stupid". It's not even that fine of a line.

A new low for GW, and that's saying something. A simple message on the website along the lines of "we are henceforth severing all connection with those players who have invested years of time and thousands of pounds in our game. See ya. It's been profitable. All further business will be conducted with children. End of message." would do. It'd probably be better for everyone in the long run, too.

I may need to make a new thread to separate my draft rules discussion from GW's daft rules discussion.

[me_in_japan]

My apologies - you're quite right. Let's keep this thread as a place where well thought out and player-tested rules can be discussed. (Seriously, though, sorry for the thread jack. Got a bit carried away there.)
