In our Experience shooting is quite weak. most times only delivering a pin.
Curious. What forces did you use, if I may ask? You think that may have made the difference?
I was charging elite elven infantry into speargobbo's. Losing 1 or 2 models meant only 3 got to fight against the full rank (since spears could be chucked into my charge and than the gobbo's got to fight).
This resulted that I just didn't have the dice to make a dent, even if my target numbers where in my favor.
His wolfriders charging my archers suffered similar fates.
In Bolt action pin markers have a decent impact too. One thing I like about those rules.
Note, it's been a while. I might not have some details straith, but this is the impression it left me with. We tried a few games, but pretty soon abandoned it. It felled like, since warlord had recently purchased some fantasy model series, they quickly needed some rules to go with them.
