Hi,
now that you mentioned the cards topic...
I was thinking the other day that the idea of 5.0 army card to make hidden
deployment is really nice and very useful
BUT (there's always a but)
I found an issue which we should find a solution: Company cards for some
armies are going to be deployed all together (orks, IG) but in other cases
they can be deployed in three (or four or five) different places or even out
of the board (like SM or Eldar)
How is it possible to do a hidden deployment of three detachments from a
company in different places on the board with a single card?
Should we have extra cards? or sthing like separate detachment cards for
each company card? Maybe an idea could be (numbered) blank cards for hidden
deployment.
Albert
