And I never said it was wrong. It just feels wrong IMO. You can't deny feeling shortchanged and cheated. Not that it IS actually cheating. <br /><br />I don't play much and these games were played for energie's tournament preperation. Which is the way it should be. Just follow the rules in the book.Beef Nuggetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07424015836845552574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4539712451210445513.post-19000297312449885562010-08-17T11:12:36.311+08:002010-08-17T11:12:36.311+08:00@mathhammer: I had the following:

I gues...Both Beef Nuggets and I played a good game. I guess it is worth pointing out the mechanics of the game that really seemed to be counter intuitive. In fact, I didn't even realise this until CrazyRat pointed it out to me that I could allocate the wounds. <br /><br />Battle Canon fired - template hits all 3 Warriors + Prime = 4 Str 8, AP1 Hits. This would imply 3 instant death Warriors and 1 wound of the Prime. <br /><br />However, because Beef had more shots coming in, CrazyRat told me to let him roll everything. So, 1 Lascannon and 2 Heavy Bolter shots later, there was another Str8 AP2 wound + 3 Heavy Bolter wounds. <br /><br />Total wounds now: 5 Str8 AP1/2 + 3 Str5 AP4 (Str and AP of Heavy Bolter-I cannot remember but it's not important)<br /><br />As per the Wounds Allocation rule, I allocated the first 4 Str8 AP2 on two Warriors and the spare on the Prime. I then allocated the other 3 Heavy Bolter shots on the Prime and spare Warrior - thus saving one Warrior where I should have lost all 3 Warriors and the Prime then taking a wound or two.<br /><br />The guys are correct Beef that this is a rule exploit but we are playing the game as it is written. Unfortunately in a tourney setting, this will come in play and it's best I get used to it. Until GW rule it otherwise, we will have to really live with it.Anything But Oneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15687901685615435513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4539712451210445513.post-42528971350974720752010-08-17T06:54:33.549+08:002010-08-17T06:54:33.549+08:00Yup I will need to Tyranid player to explain what ...Yup I will need to Tyranid player to explain what has happened to his unit.Then those who need clarification will know. (I am using that example as we were just talking about this issue then the BOLS article came up thus I used it) <br /><br />Even I am unsure and simply let it pass for the game to go on since like you all mentioned. "It was the rules". <br /><br />And yes I am definitely taking it easy with the game.

I feel you have edited the truth to reinforce you point of view.<br /><br />I feel you caused one or 2 ID wounds(Str 8) and 3 or more non ID wounds. The Tyranid player then followed the rules in the rulebook and allocated the ID wounds to the T5 model and the non ID wounds to the warriors. That is my guess, he followed the rules.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4539712451210445513.post-83305414363813347052010-08-17T01:59:39.419+08:002010-08-17T01:59:39.419+08:00How exactly did that happen?
