I do agree that we should not drop faq 2010 material. Apart from the fact that it is good stuff, we would also alienate a large part of the community, which is certainly not what we want.
Yes, this exactly. I think BFG:R should be additional options and small edits, but not drop anything that is currently an option entirely.
Alright, well the vote is currently a tie. Any other thoughts of how to make the THA work and be balanced? I am going to try out some math and consider a D3+1 option as well as the D6 and D3 options.
-4 THAs with the FB rule hitting a Desolator. 2 THAs die. 2 attacks against the Desolator, 55% change to get 1 hit, 16.6% to get a full critical.
-4 THs hit a Desolator. 2 THs die. 2 H&Rs against the Desolator, 30.5% change to get 1 hit, 2 H&Rs with no option to roll a 1 and could possibly do more damage with a Fire critical.
-4 THAs with the D3+1 rule hit a Desolator. 2 THAs die. Still, 55% change to get 1 hit, 16.6% to get a full critical.
-4 original THAs hit a Desolator. 2 THAs die, still 2 hits, possibly chance to get more, 55% change to get 1 hit, 16.6% to get a full critical.
-4 THAs with the FB rule hit a Carnage. 1 THA dies. 6 attacks against it, average 2 hits against it. 30.55% change at critical.
-4 THs hit a Carnage. 1 TH dies. 3 H&Rs, about 42% chance to get a hit on it, excluding the chance at a fire crit.
-4THAs with the D3+1 rule his a Carnage. 1 THA dies. 12 attacks, 4 hits average against it, good chance at critical.
-4 original THAs hit a Carnage. 1 dies. 13.5 attacks against it in average. 4.4995 hits on average. good chance of critical.
-2 THAs with the FB rule hit a Sword. 1 dies, one gets 1 attack against it, killing it at 33.3%.
-2 THs hit a Sword. 1 dies, 1 kills it at 66.6%.
-2 THAs with the D3+1 rule hit a Sword. 1 dies, one gets 1 attacks against it, killing it at 55.5%.
-2 original THAs hit a Sword. 1 dies, 1 gets an average of 2.5 attacks against it, 83.3325% to kill it.
Alright, D6 is too powerful, D3 is too crappy. D3+1 makes the most sense. Just as powerful as the original against battleships (slightly more powerful than an AB against it), a little less powerful against cruisers (but much more than ABs), and now less powerful than assault boats against escorts, how it should be.
