Re: [BTSS] Re: How to make SOB popular!

Its buried on the site there somewhere. Upon closer examination, yeah three of the options aren't available anymore (of course, we just keep losing capabilities, but there you go), however the rest would still work.

Where did you find the updated rules for the Repressor? When I go to the Forge World website and click the link for the updated rules it still shows the Repressor with wargear options that we lost with the White Dwarf Codex. Thanks

Your option two sounds very cool, but man you'd need either alot of OOP Necromunda minis, or maybe just convert some Bretonnian peasants and give them lasguns, shotguns, etc. As for your light assault vehicle, somebody did an article for Cityfight that was a cut down Chimera which he used to create light tanks and used Sentinels as the rules.

We make them OP (over powered) or ROP (really over powered). The best way I can see to make this happen would be to allow Domions as troop units, this would give 6 MSU with transports and preacher to scout about the table in teams popping vehicles and flaming troops. Any other thoughts on how to make SOB over the top WIN WIN?
