Do you think dozer blades will ever be useful again?

[Inquisitor_Lensoven]

Since some kits still come with them I’ll keep putting them on, but do you think they’ll ever have rules again? Should they have rules again?

I think you should be able to drive through terrain with them... without some Stratagem or Detachment rule.

I wish….i miss the days they were useful and you could gain attacks with them.

Maybe make it a weapon option other than tracks.

Or boost the tracks like +1A +1S +1AP

 

vehicles that weigh dozens of tons or in some cases 100+ tons don’t seem to be very good at squishing things beneath them.

I think terrain should be destructible. Always seemed silly to me that a knight could be trapped by a ruined wall. Let me roll to see if my mighty war engine knocks it over or trips over it. Either way the cowardly tau hiding behind it get crushed.

That's why we used to have difficult terrain tests back in the old days.... "back in the old days"....Im old

When was this, i just remember they could re-rol difficult terrain tests, having got back into 40K after a hiatus around 5th edition the biggest shock to me apart from initiative disappearing was that tanks cant got through terrain.  on a board recently my land raiders were stuck in my deployment zone.  

 

Atleast tanks get attacks in CC now before max they could do was tank shock

Dozers should always be an option IMO as should tiers of terrain. Impassible/dangerous/difficult etc. to reflect a battlefield properly.

I miss conversion images like this one from 4th edition rulebook, that showed very lovely part usage and how cool certain (sometimes unused) parts/options can actually be. 

GW should bring this kinda freedom back
