uncopywrited) fluff, I'll put in the effort of making the rules
represent the fluff. Until then I choose to make things, well perhaps
not simple, but at least internally consistant.

+AC+ Curious... a lot of descriptions I put in my codici are taken
from White Dwarfs bought when Space Marines was sold... and after
this Epic. Descriptions for new units are taken from the GW website
because they didn't exist at the time. _YOU_'ll put the effort of
making the rules for the fluff? You haven't to make anything. The
mailing list have to make the rules, not you. Ah... my material is
copyrighted? I was thinking that _all_ we are using it's
copyrighted... but maybe it's just me.

When I start all this revision (seems long time ago), one thing I
thought was that I can't do what I want, or impose my will to the
list. We all have to work together to make this new version work
well. I proposed things, voted polls, debated rules and changed
things to my codici that might be 'politically incorrect' upon
suggestion from you.

Your last 10-15 posts suggest the exact opposite.

+AC+ No, I'm referring to the fact that there are things in the Core
Rules never discussed, and I haven't missed a single e-mail from this
list since the revision started.

+AC+ Yes: when you plan to substitute the word "I" with the
word "We"? I already have a boss in real life, don't need another
one. Tyranid codex will not be another Chaos codex.

Besides this... Chain Fist, Combat Head, Power Saw ecc. ecc. are
all "active" weapons, so add to the wielding Titan's CAF. Ripper
Tentacled otherwise don't add anything, since they only prevent the
other Titan movements or use of a close combat weapon. A shield makes
you do more damage?
