Chris,

The new sniper rules really don't make snipers much toughter. They just make them more fun, and easier to play with.

Best,
Mark

It just seemed to me that under the old rules, a unshaken squad failing its morale check after being hit by a sniper could only become shaken. Under the new rules, it looks like it could be eliminated!

Thanks
Chris

Hi Chris,

IN THEORY it could be. That rarely happens. Even if it does, you need to understand, that a good sniper can do quite a bit of damage in the time a LnL turn represents. Certainly enough damage to render a squad combat ineffective.

Best,
Mark

I agree. But when the demo first came out I spent a while convincing myself that the first Version of the sniper was 'much more realistic'.

Now I have to unconvince myself of that

Shouldn't take too long...

Thanks
Chris
