First Acolyte Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 so i was leafing through the new codex and couldnt seem to find any listing for veteran skills as there were in the previous version. Am i right in thinking they have been axed or am i just not looking hard enough Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/149093-veterans/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Marius Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 You're right - it's all about the special ammo and heroic intervention now. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/149093-veterans/#findComment-1731355 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Malachi Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 yep, all good, and good riddance  Why is that good riddance? It was a good system. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/149093-veterans/#findComment-1731475 Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Tiger Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 yep, all gone, and good riddance  Why is that good riddance? It was a good system. waste of time waste of points rarely if ever used just utterly pointless and not necessary Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/149093-veterans/#findComment-1731478 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Malachi Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Maybe rarely used, but I still liked it, anyway, this is off topic really so i'm gonna leave it now.

WarpSpawn Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I think this is one of those things that has been made exclusive to special characters in this version, like the chapter trait system. Sicarius grants skills to a squad in an army that includes him. It's not quite the same as the veteran skills but it's as close as you are going to get. Â I don't really wish for the old trait system to return as it was but I do wish they allowed more customizing without special characters.

Shiodome Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 yah, no more outflanking vets in a razorback. ha well... :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/149093-veterans/#findComment-1733847 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Vandor Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 yah, no more outflanking vets in a razorback. ha well... :P Â That is not true. Just take the White Scars Kor'sarro Khan....his chapter tactic replaces combat tactics with outflanking...and it applies to transports. So terminator assault squads in dedicated land raider transport will now be outflanking :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/149093-veterans/#findComment-1733986 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiodome Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 in stuck in the 'special characters in MY d.i.y? no thanks!!' camp. (yes i know i can pretend 'x' characters rules represent 'd.i.y character z' but it just feels wrong to me, always will :)) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/149093-veterans/#findComment-1733997 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Vandor Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 I know what you mean...but I get really sad when i make a d.i.y. hero and then i think that i could just use one of the special characters to do the same thing so much better. They should put out rules in a white dwarf for your own legal hero traits. But i guess it would probably just create a problem with min/maxing them :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/149093-veterans/#findComment-1734047 Share on other sites More sharing options...
