Sorry I havn't posted again; we've been playing quite a bit, but still ironing out the rules. It's become obvious that 3 stands of EHI and 3 stands of KN can...
Eric Glad you're enjoying yourselves: that's what VB and VM are all about. As regards the EHI and the KN: pin them in the front with some cheapo units and...
