are you telling me GW is run by the space Lizard people David Icke is so afraid of?
my thoughts on this:
it is a draft (obviously)
it is for internal playtesting
at no point on it does it say it is an actual GW publication or is indeed 6th ed.
if GW jump on it then hints to me that it is real and leaked my a disgruntled employee or ex-employee
i think if GW start throwing litigation out over this, then it turns ou it was a planned "tease" they might leave themselves open.
if it IS fake, that person needs a job somewhere in wargaming as it is pretty workable.
my initial thoughts on the rules:
the shooting thing is a bit... dunno. i always hated the idea of a guardsman missing a fucking huge tank three feet from him. but i would prefer it to be done with modifyiers, not this gay Evade rule.
BECAUSE YOU JUST KNOW MATT WARD WILL GIVE EVERY MARINE AN EVADE FACTOR OF A MILLION BECAUSE HE JUST FUCKING CANthe rest of it, well, i pretty much like the idea of flamers hitting units in a transport, but i have to admit i had just got very comfy with the move-shoot-assault mechanic. move-assault-shoot if you can is a bit erk for me.
i look forward to younger and wiser heads to go through the "rules" with a comb and post an in depth, clever analysis. then compare it to Mantic
