I remember playing a squat vs eldar game in 40K. Me being the squats. Of
course I lost the initiative as squats have such low strategy. After the
first turn my half dozen units were halved before I had a chance to do
anything. There was plenty of cover, but there little I could do against
warp spiders and swooping hawks dropping grenades on my head and those
really fast jetbikes. And have you ever tried to doge molofilament wire on
squats initiative? It just bugs me how important strategy is in 40K. The
above example just reminded me of that game and horrors of it. I'm a little
concerned.
