Units swapping?

Post by ss7877 »

Hi all.
Any news about ability to swap units ?

I remember, it was in the plans of developers but still no info about this.

Best regards, ss7877

Still no unit swapping.
Please Slitherine, tell us something about subj.

Swapping could be best too for SM, at least like I play them, 'classical' mass of TacticalInf and Predators.
How is this in the tabletop game? can the figures be swapped?

I tried to play it a bit this week end between 2 Empires sessions ;-) and my son too, but we got confused by something. Perhaps that's old age coming up.

When you order a movement, even if you spend only 1 MP, all the unit movement allowance is spent! I don't remember it was working like that in the first versions of the game (or I'm tired). This is rather difficult to explore without getting ambushed now.

It confused me as well at first, but it is mentioned in the manual, so I guess it is a feature :D

Yes it's a feature, since I bought the game at release (I was not in beta nor in an early). I was some disturbed at first, but learnt to appreciate it. So Pocus is tired by developping his Empires game :)
For WH40K game, I think it's a good feature, yes for it is stressing exploring, like it should in this wild though background setting. It feels more wild deep mysterious and merciless dangerous jungle. We must learn and have some luck, and never being alone, or risk dying. Only good scouts are allowed not counting too much on luck and may dare going lone.
SpaceMarines are hero, but not cowboys. Those who survive know they still must count on each other, better than on luck (other name of a Chaos god?).
Too this game comes from a tabletop game which is more easy to manage like that.

Thanks for the precision. I thus had a senior moment! If that's a feature since the start, all good! Makes exploration tense indeed :-)
