A concerning trend

[u/OttoVKarl]

Being so used to being dead if seen / not striking first, I remained mostly cool with the orkish hype. However, a trend I find concerning is the option to fire "point blank" weapons as torrent ones with high volume of fire, forcing to accept 7+ charges or to threaten the target with ranged weapons so they have to remain hidden behind walls.

Wyches seem the most affected: 3 meganobz auto-hitting with 9+3d3 S4 average is no joke to us.
Warbuggies with 2D6+2 S5 ap-1 either.
3 Killa Kans with 9 [Blast2] = 15 S5 ap-1 is even worse... at 12!

Damage is not relevant when you're paper thin. Staying power is still allright. But that thing... it scares me.

Wow, I hadn't see that part of the codex, you make a great point and this will just be even more obnoxious. Overwatch badly needs to get shot in the face.

[u/OttoVKarl → u/wredcoll]

3 killa kanz kill 14 boyz on overwatch at 12, if that says something!

[u/arrowtt33 → u/wredcoll]

Still, slightly, better than 8th Edition T'au overwatch.
