just read the FAQ - seems they are intent on treating the Valks base at ground level as a non-vehicle model, the model is represented by the base.

This clears alot up. The only other real issue I have is; does the whole model have to clear the terrain pieces in order to not have to take dangerous terrain tests? If enemy models have to assault the base, and friendly models can move under any part to get to be within 2" to embark/disembark, then there is already an element of 'the Valk can be over other models' included. :|

"Measuring ranges as per the rules on the skimmers page"... this surely does mean meltas will have a hard time getting to witin 6" won't it?

Hey i did'nt say it was gonna be a cheap option!

Remember all ranges for shooting will be mesured to any part of the hull so meltas wont be bothered but you must assault the base to bring it down in combat so it makes it harder to reach in hand to hand

No-one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought and why we died.
All that matters is that two stood against many, thats whats important.
Valor pleases you lord Crom so grant me one thing, grant me revenge.
And if you do not listen....then to hell with you!"
