Finishing BFG:Revised

[horizon]

When did the Desolator get dorsal wb9?

[Bessemer]

In the original BFG:R stuff. Always thought that would have put the price up myself (10-15pts). It's cheap for what you get anyway.

I'll look into that.

Just reading through the AM pdf, and on page 3 in indicates that capital ships have to roll randomly against the gifts table, despite the fact that elsewhere it suggests that the gifts may be selected.

Equally, a roll of 6 for leadership allows you to select a gift. Does this mean the gift is free?

This should be fixed now. Thanks! I don't know how I missed that.

AM again; on page 8 it reads "in addition to (and before) the refit the ship rolls for normally." It then goes on to discuss other aspects of the rolling. Presumably this needs to be corrected too?

Also, I'm not clear from the rules whether the subplots on page 4 are only used in campaigns, or also in pickup games. If used in pickup/tournament games, what impact, if any does the +/- renown have? If it does nothing, can't most of the subplots be effectively ignored?

Equally, are the subplots rolled for and triggered before or after deployment?

Fixed.

Alright, so far we have 1 list done and that's Imperial Navy.  We have had a lot of discussion on changes to Tau and Space Marines.  We are also very close on MMS Eldar (which pretty much just needs to be voted as finalized with the 2 hit escort rules) and with Necrons.

I am sort of stuck with this at the moment and need some of you guys with opinions about the final changes to these 4 fleets to propose the changes before we can start up a vote for them. 

P.S. sorry for my absence for a while. I have been overloaded with school stuff (grad school is rough).

Sorry, I've been well out of action in the Specialist Games side of things for quite a while now, so I'm curious: what is the point of BFG:R? I'm not taking the piss, I assure you, but I am seriously curious, as 2010 has worked more then well for me and those I play with since it's posting.

[Koshi]

BFG:R is a try to balnce the fleet lists more than FAQ 2010. Makes some weak ships stronger and remove some too good options.

@Dan: Where are the rules for NC? I don't find them in the IN List.

@Ironmonger

Also to give a little attention to fleets that need it (Dark Eldar, Tyranids) or that were never really developed properly (Orks).

[Plaxor]

Interesting.... someone has Acrobat Professional.

[Taggerung]

This actually still being worked on? I didn't even realize these forums were still back up. I have been using the documents from Plaxor for all my games since I guess last year? They work out pretty awesome actually. Orks are still a bit underpowered but myself and Pthisis still work on our own minor changes here and there.

[afterimagedan]

We have been working on and voting on stuff over the past while. I wish I could contribute more to this but at the moment, school stuff is swamping me. I am hoping to take up some more votes soon.

Hi. I'm new here, though not new to BFG. Horizon probably remembers me, rest might have seen my pictures in Starblade, Distant Sun and some other places. Nice to meet you all, glad to see this project is still being worked at, BFG needs some new life...

Also, I offer my help when it comes to editing rules pdf's - seems like something I could to help. If you need it, of course.
