Excellent! Been waiting for this to drop!
I think I've missed an episode, but that just means more Necromunda! So many squishy meatbags just flinging themselves off ledges to meet the Ambot's claws. Lovely. Also, I noticed a couple of 1's discarded for the Deathmaiden's Toxin rolls; they get to re-roll them because of their Poison Blood special rule! But geez, poor Escher. They're so cursed in this campaign.

Always happy to see your games. This game proves that House Orlock are the masters of jack of all trades. Good access to damage 2 weapons, autoguns and wreckers. Don't forget the blaze trait on the hand flamers or do you not use it? It hate blaze too. You should really get some suspenders for your heavy bolter, that way you can ignore the unwieldy trait!

Great idea! I use the blaze rule when I think about it, lol. I thought about it when he hit Angel but he took her out of action. I maybe missed it another time. :) Thanks as always!
I agree with your end-game summary - on all counts. I'm so very happy to see the dice pad ()...and that Claw is just NASTY(!) looking, so great job on that one. As for the battle-weary errors of omission...well, it is a function of the game system: bulky, almost byzantine, and certainly cumbersome. But hey, it's a D6/ToHit-ToWound-ToSave system (yeah, I know there's a Chaldean 66 function, but it's a direct link to the 'need' for D6 adherence). We get for which we pay. Regardless, I enjoy these and am glad to see their return (post-move). Cheers!

What a scrum. So worth the wait. Question: does pin count as prone when being targeted by ranged weapons?
@MiniatureGameMontage
2 жыл бұрын
I think prone can be two things, pinned (face up) or seriously injured (face down). If you're targeted by a range weapon when prone the firer suffers a -1 to hit at long range. If you are prone and in cover, however, you may not be targeted. So to answer your question, yes, pinned does count as prone.

Great Match guys!! It is so hard to keep up w/ each characters specials and totally understand when missed. One of ways I have tried to avoid missing them is "card check phase" before rolling dice a little tedious. While the attacker is prepping info, the defender asks any specials and vice versa especially when playing for fun and both see if anything applies. Just a suggestion.

Yes, if you miss a shot at someone engaged it's considered a stray shot. Roll a D6 for each fighter that it can hit and on a 1-3 you hit them. This would include both or more fighters, friend or foe that are engaged. We often miss this.

@@Danishmalt Correct. I believe the rules state if the shot misses, there is a chance another fighter, friend or foe will be hit. And I should clarify that you start with the closest model to the guy who shot. Once someone takes the shot you stop if multiple are involved.
Great report! Small thing but I think you have to declare you are using bullet lord instead of rolling the rapid fire dice, it isn’t a re-roll. Means you can do it then totally whiff the shots.

I’m sure this has been asked many times before Did you print your own terrain?

I use a good blend of regular terrain and 3d printed pieces. Most I found by looking for zone mortalis compatible terrain on thingiverse. It takes time and patience. Patience to get it set up and working, patience to not get mad and learn why and how things fail, and time to print. For example, each 12x12 tile probably took 24 hours of print time. I referenced numerous channels, 3d tomb of horrors, gaminggeek and printed table top before pulling the trigger. There is a learning curve but now I know exactly what I'm doing and I'm still in love with it.

Hi, he was firing at Tempest I believe on top of the terrain (she's hard to see in the shot). A stray shot would need to be a fighter within 1" of the line of the shot. We often miss stray shots though. This was a game that left us mentally fried :P

Combi weapons have 2 separate weapons. So both profiles wouldn’t be out. Unless you shot earlier with the other one and I didn’t realize. Lol. But then I’m confused how multiple arrow types work. Since some have different ammos. Idk. Because they’re technically different weapons, not different fire types (like a shotgun).
