Title: Rival species questions !
Post by: seldon on April 22, 2017, 03:50:18 PM
So some of the bigger creatures like the armored host I assumed they were like vehicles, but really it is not stated that they are such, and behemoth has nerves of steel and dedicsted, so I assume that the rest can be shaken if shock maches the remaining hit points ? Technicall behaving lke infantry ?

Does any of the bio forces behave like vehicles regarding suppression.. my guess is no ?
Is there any considereation regarding "hide" actions and the fact that some of these creatures are size 3 or 4 and still have the option to execute that action?

I was trying to get a AFV kind of creature, I'm thinking about using the Armored Host creature removing the transport ability... should I adjust the points much or should I not care about how the point difference...?

Heavy decomposition cannon, is it really 3 uses per turn ???

A related question, you cannot kill more figures than attack dice, when a weapon is for example 2xD6H, technically it is still only ona D6 right as I am choosi g the high one, correct ?

Sorry, for the delay, I simply overlooked the questions...

They are all creatures, NOT vehicles.
And yes they can be shaken etc.

As above, no vehicles!
Hiding with Size 2+ creatures...
I left it deliberately a bit vague! ;) Per se they can hide.
Once spotted however they are effected by the size rules from p.37 of the FuCo book.
"Any infantry unit with a Size/2 or higher Ability is affected by the same rules as described for vehicles under Section 11.2.1 Close Combat and Section 11.5 Shooting at Vehicles."

IMO the Armoured Host is more like an APC, I would use the Behemoth or Tremor Beast!

Yes

Yes, just like the rules and example say on P.10
"Sometimes you will be asked to roll a number of dice and use the result equal to the highest indi-vidual dice roll. These rolls are usually noted as 2xD6H – the H indicating you should use the highest result.
Note that the dice are not added together."
