Observation Chapter Tweak, Part 1
by
SandWyrm
Following the copious notes that I've made over the last few months, but which I didn't have the time or energy to act on, here is the first tweak to the observation chapter. I've taken out the rule that defined a bonus to a unit's spotting distance for being in an elevated position, and added an atmosphere quote to the illustration on that page.
I'm taking out the whole spot-the-enemy part of the rules based on their moving/shooting actions, and just going with set view distances for obscured and concealed models. These distances will halve if a unit has gone to ground, but that's it.
Thoughts?
Edit: For Da Master Cheef – Here's another grab of the page I tweaked (page 43) along with the page before it (which I didn't touch). Page 42 contains the actual rules that the Multi-Step hill example was meant to illustrate.
Sorry, I forget sometimes that not everyone reads (or remembers) every page as I write them.
