I think an Optinal Rules - book would be great!

Hi!
<groan> Not THIS again. Optional people, O-P-T-I-O-N-A-L.
No work is "wasted" everything can and will be used. Do not judge the
utility of a given idea/army or new rule by the comments of the
"several" of us who normally comment. There are more than 340 people on
the list, never doubt someone will use what you/anyone has made.
The philosophy behind this revision is to provide choices. Therefore I
want all ideas in this version, instead on my hard drive where it just
gets lost.
I'm beginning to wonder if we should reinstitute the "optional book"
like we used to have. So basically you have a version 5.0 that is
virtually identical to 4.1 and a large optional book with all the extra
goodies people may use.
Of course I'll leave that to the editor (Jar).
So take a deep breath and continue the revision. I'll make sure no ones
effort is "wasted".
Peter

They still are marines, they still serve the emperor, their love for
their battle comrades is still exceptional, they still must observe
orders and they sitll MUST OBSERVE UNIT COHERENCY. There's more than a
50% chance that a unit of bikes with overcharged engines get at least
one stopped and the whole unit must wait for him. This is not a good
marine tactic. Never.
-> Ahem. Bikes aren't vehicles. Only vehicles have overcharged engines.

I was referring that improving stats as general method of revision (the
so called GW way) will scarcely lead to any good. OK, I see your point,
if I don't like I don't use it. But I think that if this tread is going
to lead to a point to the game being unplayable, and the most of the
players ignoring it, why continue working for this result? I don't want
to spent a lot of hours to do sthing I know no one would use.
-> Maybe I do.
I prefer thinking about it and correcting it before it's too late and a
lot of effort is wasted.
-> Do you imply that I am not thinking at all? Well, thank you very
much. It's very interesting to note one attitude among the listmembers.
Namely, "Oh, I do support changes as long as anything doesn't change."
Since we are obviously at the opposite ends of the change axis I don't
think there's any point in continuing this discussion. No matter what I
say it isn't going to change your mind and no matter what you say it
isn't going to change my mind.
The next poll is going to be: Should the new special chapter rules be
incorporated to NE5.0? I'll see how it turns up before I post Dark
Angels.
