So small teams is gone – theres no getting round that (like exceptional damage) WL have come out and said its gone completely, not changed or re-named, gone!

People have done the maths on FB & Discord and turns out its a bit of a wash (no real difference) on lethality between the changes in shooting with modifiers and cover.

The streamlined thing …..theres a lot less calculations to do (not that there was a lot or it was difficult), and a lot less 7+ to hit results.  How much time this saves or costs isnt really going to anything worth calculating in my view  -as  again it balances out… instead of having to roll half a dozen dice again to see if you hit, its now giving your opponent a few dice to roll to see if their guys go splat!  So from an interaction point of view its a plus, time saved its nil.

this is of course just my view on the bases of the teases we’ve had… full judgement is waiting till I get the rulebook and a couple of games in.
