This is arguments... Abuse is around the corner.

[And yes, I know that the quote is backwards]

I read your ideas, and, well, I didn't feel that I could say any thing,
given that my feelings about E40K are fairly public (I think is is the
best set of rules that GW has ever put out, and the first that feels
like a wargame.) Most of the things that are being listed (yours
included) as being "in need of being fixed" in E40K can be summed up as
"This will make it feel closer to Space Marine Mk II", which, IMNSHO,
does not need to be done. There are some holes in E40K, but only in the
context of it being a wargame. Engineer troops, Missile "flak", and
smoke rounds being the ones that spring to mind. None of those can be
done with out "new" rules.

What ever.
