Re: Agatagary's Customs
Yes.
That's exactly what it is. I am undecided as to whether to make it simply an attack or a turn; the idea is that once Ulfgard attacks, he goes berserk and fights with such a fury that he...

The Ambush ability was reworded from how it originally worked. The new way does not require removing and replacing portions of terrain, as the old one did. Also, the way it is now worded gives a...

Re: three player games
I find that the best way to handle a free for all is to rule that as soon as one player is out of units, the game ends (and the remaining player with the greatest number of points left wins). This...

My reasoning was that, against squad units, he could automatically kill them if he or an adjacent unit had damage. True, he is fairly feeble, but if you can protect him he can be both a healer and a...
