        Yeah I found that last night...does make it harder with the bikes
especially...

        No I meant that "4" assault value. I am disappointed at the lack
of shooty aspects, but I guess the guardians make up for it...

I'd go with something like the tactic being thrown around now - dump as
many disrupt weapons into one enemy detatchment and then plow into them
with aspect warriors.
        As far as organization, assuming you want to keep the doomweavers
back in a seperate detach...I guess some guardians with some aspects to
keep the riff-raff off. Doeas anybody use the a-g platforms ? They look
OK to
me, but what do we know from experience out there?
