Slinkdawg Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 I was reading through some of the errata and it looks like the sniper is now much better. He now has a Cb 5:rams. This means pretty much default triggers, either the critical strike for an extra Wd or the headshot if you have the :crows. The damage on the rifle is now 2/2/5 I'm picking this guy up to run w/the viki's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 I did notice that. I was actually very surprised that the original errata gave him a crow for combat instead of a ram. Needing both for head shot and having critical strike, ram just seemed like the logical choice. (especially since most models in the game with critical stike can trigger it automatically) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mortificator Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 (edited) This will definitely make him a reasonable choice for my Guild crew over Nino. Edited January 22, 2010 by The Mortificator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Recklessmisuseofviolence Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 have you also noticed the contradiction between the two new erratas regarding the dm track? the new errata says 1/2/5, the new printer friendly errata says 2/2/5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Good eye. P.S. Your name makes my screen cry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBugKing Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Hmmm. Should read 2/2/5 I'll poke Eric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slinkdawg Posted January 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Do you know what might be fun? 1) Have Hans set up at a good vantage point. 2) Keep the student of conflict back near Hans and give him fast 3) Blast your opponent's toughest model w/in 16" up to 3 times (or focus one of the shots to hopefully get the headshot off, and cheat a second one) Is this a good use for the Student? BTW is Ruthless gone? The way I read the errata now, it sounds like you don't need a WP duel to fire into close combat anymore (just risk hitting unintended targets)...

Slinkdawg Posted January 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 gotcha, so it's still there... just a bit more situational (though there be plenty of harmless out there) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 gotcha, so it's still there... just a bit more situational (though there be plenty of harmless out there) I think it's a bit better.

Peterdita Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 I'm very glad Hans got a bit of boost. He was increased in cost and than cuddled a bit before release and I was a bit disapointed in his value. I'll have to hire up some guns soon and relook at him.

The Mortificator Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Ruthless negates harmless. Also Pitiful, though I'm not too sure what that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slinkdawg Posted January 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Pitiful? I pity the fool that don't eat this cereal... (pardon the pun. it's late) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
