Not only are there multiple proofreading errors (then for thin, in one case), but including errors in the stats of the units is inexcusable. The whole thing is sloppy and gives me the impression that they don't really care about the army.Chuckleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09680171236677541103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489945968592018737.post-73928812538325052552009-09-16T16:01:44.258-04:002009-09-16T16:01:44.258-04:00No kidding!

It's not like they get throw out of control when they get going too fast!<br /><br />Vespid could probably work if they had BS4, but with BS3 they are too reliant on markerlights to do any damage. plus their paperthin armor is a major drawback. (I love how he said they were slightly more durable due to T4!)<br /><br />Their fluff suggests too that they should have razor sharp claws, or in other words, Rending.Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11680110160882762433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489945968592018737.post-28274265900166315202009-09-16T15:48:12.210-04:002009-09-16T15:48:12.210-04:00Somewhat cynical, but probably true, especially wh...Somewhat cynical, but probably true, especially when it comes to Vespids. They clearly haven't even given them much thought in the article...<br /><br />Cons: "Due to their speed it can be easy to get them into an unsupported position."<br /><br />LOL, only if you're scatterbrained enough to let that happen, I'd imagine. Then again, as one who is more used to fighting Tau than playing as them, I've no real idea of how exactly Vespids fail, though the fact that I've never faced them before is enough to make me think that they do.SorcererDavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13522174439482316540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489945968592018737.post-82880659389544765552009-09-16T15:28:05.080-04:002009-09-16T15:28:05.080-04:00You're not the only one suspecting this is all...You're not the only one suspecting this is all preamble for the new codex.
