hang fire there! - i thought that in the situation below when A pops up and can see R and visa versa then both A and R take In Sight checks and order of shot...
I think 40k could easily be 'assimilated' into 5150 mechanics by transfering relative strengths and weaknesses and interpreting the fluff better than what GW...
Note that the following rant/novella isn't directed at anyone in particular (especially not Hugh :) ), and probably isn't all that interesting (or coherent!);...
The only real use that I could see for a "Tournament" system would be for PvP campaigns, where "fair" fights are very important to the final outcome. In the...

Here's a great video from HMGS East on historical wargamming http://www.hmgs.org/wargamevideo.htm Jon Christenson Col. Baker's Field, People's Republic of...
The rules say that flamethrower leaves a path of fire after shot. (I understand this). Those who want to move throw this fire have to take "Want to charge"...
That was in previous THW rulesets,.... 5150 changed this. Now only inactive characters take the "in sight" test. Francisco ... up and can see R and visa versa...
Should add it could also be an involuntary move. The possibility should be covered even if the act of moving through flames is ill advised. Bob It says the...
It says the figure moves "through" the flame and suffers a hit. So I would take the roll after the figure finishes moving, not while it is in the flame. Why...
Looks like Symons are an exception in that they test while moving as well. Bob That was in previous THW rulesets,.... 5150 changed this. Now only inactive...
Well I'm going to use flamethrower rules for Tankers and Firefries! I missed them in bugs army lists. They're going to be really nasty! Francisco ... while it...
Certain weapons, notably Grenade Launchers and Rocket Launchers have a points cost for the weapon itself and for each round. For most weapons an stock per...
HI, I would tend to agree with most everything you have posted here. I, too, rather enjoy the 40K background and think it was never done justice by the rules....
Naw, it doesn't have anything to do with that, and I surely didn't say anything about anything! Mel is the coolest guy. He taught me how to do thexturing in...
I'll be out of touch until afternoon tuesday, as I'll be moving. A brief article on convoy ambushes (to go with the Convoy Mission for FNG) will be posted...
Yep, there's nothing quite like the smell of VietCong-A-Q in the morning... or was that aftrenoon... don't recal! Let this be a lesson to all: never let a...
Going through 5150 and thinking of all the goodies with this and other games that use the CR system and then it occured to me that ninja and weird-assed turtle...
It seems we have to ask for specific rules. You're taling NUTS! I'm talking 5150. Ed ... up and can see R and visa versa then both A and R take In Sight checks...
It's very important to specify which game when asking questions. Each game is unique and while certainly the mechanics from one can be applied to the others,...
Once per turn for the rocket launcher, as normal for the greande launcher. Ed ... a points cost for the weapon itself and for each round. ... are told how many...
Does that mean it takes two activations? 1. enter and fry 2. attempt to recover and move on. Bob ... flamethrowers in 5150. If they pass the Knock/Back...
What Greg said. :) That's about exactly what I'm looking for. The actual numbers should reflect 5150; an autogun is an assault rifle. A boltgun does more ...
We ran our first game of 5150 last night. It went well, but we ran into one situation we couldn't figure out. My opponent turns a corner in my rear arc. I'm...
