RandomGuy Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 We get some FW love, new official pdf rules can be found here- http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Downloads/Product/PDF/r/RepressorFAQversion1P.pdf I can't decide whether I like the new rules or not, AV13 on the front is interesting. Not sure what we can deduce from this, I suspect that it probably means that IA2 is on the way and the Sisters don't make it in there.

SinnerBeta Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Hey RandomGuy, we already discussed the new rules in a recent thread, should be near the front page. I guess people that had more time to field it than me could discuss it here, but you'll most of the musing and opinions we had there. Also yes, somebody in the last thread mailed FW and they told him that these are experimental rules until IA2SE comes out.

Naminé Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Well AV13 on the front seems to protect it from melta pretty well, judging from the experience today. It's also good for ramming :p Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/276900-new-repressor-rules/#findComment-3394678 Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Furyou Miko Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Heh, yes. Word of advice: Don't take Repressors on Zone Mortalis boards. They are nigh unkillable when you put them somewhere, but their range of movement is too limited for them to really be useful, especially Outflanking.

Eddie Orlock Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Armour just generally feels like a poor idea in a Zone Mortalis with the possible exception of Walkers.

Ilbram_Harker Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Didn't Repressors used to have 5 fire points? This was back when it had the front AV of 11.

*Furyou Miko Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Repressors used to have 1 Fire Point and 6 Firing Slits that could only be used for the squad's Basic Weapons. Now they just have 2 Fire Points. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/276900-new-repressor-rules/#findComment-3395964 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vigrid Of Asgaror Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 I used some on the weekend and it actually proved helpful. I had two Repressors and a Rhino. One Repressor was pierced by a warp lance and I rolled a 6 on the invul The other was hit twice by missile fire and they failed to scratch it. I may have been lucky, but they played well, if you were smart about the placement of them. I need to play them more to really see.

RookBartly Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I have played several games now with them. While the extra armor makes turn one survival much better, I find that the points I spent on them much better spent on more girls. I perfer to have the higher numbers.

Vigrid Of Asgaror Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Yeah, that makes sense. More Sisters is always good. I still miss the fire slits though.
