I really, really hoped they'd fix the unbelievably stupid interaction between the Reposition reaction and Vanguard.

 

Just fired off an email to them to see if they'll take another look. 

"Unbelievably stupid" or just something to do that isn't a no-brainer Return Fire or Overwatch?

If you use the Reposition reaction to shuffle off an objective, you scored points in your turn (often with Line) but completely deny Vanguard for your opponent because the timing check for Vanguard in melee is at the start of the Assault phase.


Also, because Reposition triggers at 12" it's impossible to play around with melee based Vanguard units. It's an incredibly "gamey" interaction, and one which Overwhelming Force in 40k fixed by checking for a unit's positioning at the start of the turn not at the start of a phase.

So the Cybernetica Paragon of Metal sergeant... Can't use its stats if they unit contains a tech priest? That doesn't seem right.

 

Interesting Mechanicum allied with mechanicum ruling.

 

The Arquitor Magisterum got the good ending! We can have dual archeotech pistols, or take a Paragon blade and another melee option. Good.

 

Nothing about the ludicrously hard to do Omega Protocols, Makrotek transports, Vanguard units with different values of Vanguard (Custodes HQ vanguard 3, only unit on foot with vanguard 3 is the terminators), Vanguards with comptroller/Line or how to define unit majority. (Techpriest in a unit with only 1 Scyllax remaining, how does the comptroller/rad furnace rule function.)
