I like the thoughts on the Blind ordinance, I will try a game on the
weekend using the rules as on off-table barrage only for the moment and
let you know how it works.
In regards to disarming minefield templates.. Is it only the engineers
from the PDF army that can disarm them or can a Mekboy, or techmarine
also do it?.. Also can you get VP's for creating a path with a
bonebreaker through 3 of the minefield templates?
regards
