User Created Data Sheet: Death Leaper Ambush Brood

Postby fyrebyrd » Thu Jan 31, 2008 6:06 pm

Hey guys,
I wonder whatcha all think about this idea. I was looking at a non-powerful way to screw over all those taking advantage of the flank march included in formations. Obviously this is a WIP (mostly because I haven't done the fluffy description yet). Tell me whatcha think. (Remember I'm a SM player)

Ouch that will hurt, the unit thats is ambushed will definatly die. Im not sure on the exact rules for nids but i might say that this kind of unit ambushing and attacking in the same turn seems a bit unfair?

Maybe they become visible at the end of your turn if the roll ias succesful then any enemy wanting to shoot/assault the unit must roll to see if they can see the unit?

I dont know if ive swung it too much into the oppositons favour :D

Lets face it ive fought nids once in the armaggedon campaign (i had to hold that side of the board) and got wiped of the board by the genestealers regenerating back of the board!!! i kick loads aswell!!!!

I have seen many people only use certain formations because they could use flank march, I wanted them to think twice. Unfortunately I didn't think that the Ambush Asset was completely appropriate as it refers to shooting. I think that I will make it more like the ambush asset. And remember its only on formations, (ie. an army that selected its army asset to be flank march can not be ambushed) that use that strategic asset, and its a 50/50 chance for them to ambush.

There is something needing to be changed. gimme a bit, I'll get this 'un fixed...

EDIT: Adjusted stats See Post one
