Re: Not even worth trying for new players?

I see more low skilled players than high so you shouldn't have anything to worry about. People just expect you to learn the basics of the game to the point where you know when to get power generators and to not throw away your army for no reason. Go to the Strategy Discussion forum and post for help...

Re: SM balance

Unupgraded Heretics cannot go off alone like Scouts can due to less speed, no ranged attack and less vision. Unupgraded Heretics are better at supporting their army compared to unupgraded Scouts due to them doing more damage and having more utility. Scouts are meant to go off alone while Heretics ar...

Re: Guys, do you think the FC is balanced?

The FC is a very balanced hero and any change to him would have to be very slight (like increasing Alacrity's speed bonus by .5 or something). People just complain about the hammer because it's a T2 hard counter to melee (as opposed to T1 like Vials or Bionics) and requires a slight amount of strate...

You can also just keep your army in-front of the Dev and when it gets jumped just move it backwards without retreat...

Re: Hold fire

Press 'stop'. Works for some units like Plasma Devs.

Weapons that fire in the opponents fog of war don't show to your opponent due to a bug. You can kill vehicles without them even knowing what's happening.

Special Attack On Vehicles And Retreat

Would it be possible to make it so it's impossible for units to make special attacks against vehicles or retreating units? Special attacks don't do AV damage and they also don't track so you can't actually hit retreating units with it. In both situations there is absolutely no reason to do a special...

I don't believe there is a limit of shift commands, over 3 should be no problem. The only time you can't shift command is after jumps/teleports. Yes, you can. You just can't make regular orders when they jump. I shift their commands all the time when I want my ASM's to target the right unit after a...

Re: Current state of the * Drop pod *

An Inquisitor dropping a Bane Wolf or some Stormtroopers is much more damaging than a Tac squad. Plus, it's 175/55 to upgrade it to Sterns. It has no use as a regular Tac marine as it's not leveled like one made in T1 would be. The red use also slows down Terminators.

Re: Current state of the * Drop pod *

A reinforce point isn't as useful to SM as it is for other races like Nids. Even if you can reinforce, your squad will still be at low health and if you stay on the field you'll lose more expensive models.

Reinforcements can be priced at any value, not necessarily a third of half a model cost. That's up to Cael if he chose not to lower it. Dividing by half and then again on how many members are in the squad is pretty uniform with a few exceptions. Don't think Scouts snipers are that powerful though I...

Re: Scout sniper reinforce

Don't know why I didn't think of this sooner.

35/2 = 17.5/3 = 5.8 = 6
25/2 = 12.5/3 = 4.1 = 4

The power cost of snipers were changed, but their reinforce wasn't changed with it.
