    Subtlety mallet is good, as people tend to misunderstand anything less over the internet. It's the problem of using a medium that lacks tone and body language.

    Games workshop

    You might want to mention that in the original post then, as it sounds as though you were stating what you considered as a fact ;) Again, I'm not sure *how* GW would buy heavily into those two companies...

    I have to admit I doubt the veracity of this claim, as the only way for GW to get any kind of financial stake in those companies (PP for sure, I know less about Rackham) would be to buy the whole company - as neither company is public and there are no shares in them to be bought. And I doubt the...

    Centauri Demos: Presented for playtesting

    However, the Centurion Prefect is significantly less manoeuverable (less speed and fewer turns) and is additionally less resilient against many weapons as it lacks any interceptors and has a lower damage score. The Precise ability on a triple damage gun for the Demos is also a fairly significant...

    Centauri Demos: Presented for playtesting

    I'm afraid my initial impression is 'too powerful for a Raid ship'. Compare it with the Drazi Solarhawk, a Raid ship of less resilience (no interceptors)and, despite having a 6AD triple damage slow-loading Super AP beam, the Solarhawk still has less firepower (and it's boresighted) than your...

    Shadizar Boxed Set Map?

    I've just had a look and indeed you are correct. We were not aware of what the artist who drew the Shadizar map had done. We are looking into this right now.

    Shadizar Boxed Set Map?

    Warhoonslayer, Could you possibly provide a link to said map? Given that the map in Shadizar is quite specific to the layout of that city (and to specific ip), it seems unlikely that Wizards of the Coast are providing it as a download on their website, but I'm willing to give you the...

    I'm waiting to see if there are any more St&St pdf's in the pipeline from you :)

    Steampunk Settings

    I'm putting together a campaign world that mixes fantasy and the planes with a dash of steampunk. Entropy - the City at the End of the Multiverse - think a mixture of Sigil, Mega-City One and New Crobuzon, a vast urban sprawl built up over millenia and fought over by powerful factions, guilds...

    Beware: Terribly Stupid Newbie Questions!

    Well, these aren't 'official' answers as I'm just flicking through the book to look at the problems you've mentioned, but are my best guesses as to the intent of the writer are - 1) Critical sneak attacks only. 2) I think in the case of Vir Cotto, it's a mistake. His DV, ranged attack bonus...
