Re: The Book of Marro Gnids
I disagree here, at least in a 24hex format. Those starting spaces are just too valuable; using Gnids gives you a maximum of five Marro squads (without dropping figures) in your army and even six Marro squads (some combination of Stingers and Dividers being my choice) feels a tiny bit too low to get good value from the Hive.

We'll see how common it is. I suspect that most TDs will want to allow them, but it really depends on the TD, as well as the people attending. That is, if you're going to a tourney and you (and several other people) ask about C3V units, the TD may be more inclined to acquiesce. Like they say on TV: call your cable company. Quote:

Re: The Book of Marro Gnids
This has been the most interesting unit I have seen in a while. I first came here to see if there was any way to shoot them off while they where clinging but I can see the hassle that would cause creating new special rules for that.
For points though, I never saw an answer, when you tally up your points in the end , do units that are clinging, do they count towards your total surviving units? Also for units that are revived, like the Zombie hulk, would they return with their parasites or do they return deparasited? |

For the purpose of partial card scoring, I'm not 100% sure what I would do but I would *probably* allow the clinging Gnids to count as destroyed, just for the purpose of scoring. That would make end-of-round math easier, and when your brain is fried that can be important. Also it would avoid Paralysis by Analysis situations where someone has to calculate whether it's better to play to win or play to do better in partial card scoring. *But* that's Dad_Scaper the TD talking, not Dad_Scaper the C3Ver, because it's up to your TD, not the C3V, how to do things like partial card scoring in corner cases like this. And I haven't completely thought it through anyway and may change my mind. In casual play I'd do as dok says, if I got into partial card scoring in casual play, which I don't. |

Re: The Book of Marro Gnids
I assume Gnids must stay attached to the host, and cannot un-cling once clung, correct?

Re: The Book of Marro Gnids
Yes that is correct, once the Cling, the figures stay on the opponent's card until the game is over.

The only scoring methods I know that work otherwise go by counting your "kill points", but it seems equally clear that the clinging gnids don't count in that case, either. All of that said, there are potential situations in endgame where you have to decide whether losing a Gnid to cling is going to give you enough benefit to be worth the scoring hit. This is true whether you play partial scoring or full card scoring - that just changes how often and by how much the cling can swing things. |

Re: The Book of Marro Gnids
CLING
When a card with Marro Gnids on it is destroyed, the Marro Gnids remain on the card and, like the card, are removed from play. They do not count as destroyed, nor may they be brought back into the game by the Marro Hive, the Glyph of Revival, or any other means. Like this? Jugger It's like football with swords or LARPing without the geeky stuff. In other words, it's awesomely perfect! |
