One of the things that made Striker II faster than CT-Stiker was the ability of units to fire at other units by rolling a mass of dice to determine if a unit...
This is the only area where I have not been able to come up with something that streamlines the system. Ideally, I would like to figure out a way for the Unit...

Hey Matthew, I guess one of my big gripes about Striker II, and also Stargrunt II in a similar vein, is that I want to roll buckets of pretty colored dice, so...
