It's weird that the named models from the starter set use the points from the Gang War supplement not the rulebook

You can only have 3 weapons max, unwieldy weapons take two slots. Currentyl, the krumper is the only ranged unwieldy weapon.

Well that'll lead to a house rule.

Very inconsistent and just diminishes the argument to have 2 different "versions" of the same game at the same time. Where 1 version is "starter box only" and the other is "full game". Instead of vasting time on the garbage starter-box-only version, they should use that time and resource to make full-game version available.

But they couldn't even put in a Heavy Bolter, something most of the Gangs have access to? And too much of an effort to put in Power Axes? Well, 'least my Delaque leader can now parry with his axe! Yay?

So isn't there an inconsistency between the stats of the Boltgun in the Legacy Rules and those in Underhive?
The Bolter part of the Combi-Needle Rifle in Underhive is D:2 with a 6+ ammo check. The Legacy one is D:1 and a 4+ ammo check.

The Bolt Pistol in Legacy matches up with the Underhive stats for a Bolt round (D2, Ammo 6+) so it seems to be an error.

Also the Two-Handed Weapon is just all around worse then the Fighting Knife for an additional +5 Creds. Seem like it should have higher damage or a positive Strength modifier.

That's a nice thing to send out.

I wonder if the Delaque leader having flak and Champions Mesh is an error.

Rapid Fire (1) for the Heavy Stubber seems odd?

Jesus Christ! They had months to get this six page leaflet right. Don´t they do any sort of proof-reading? Hopefully they correct these inconsistencies right away and publish a flawless version tomorrow.

So your argument is that since the regulations are poorly enforced then they don't exist?

Well that's the kind of quality argument I'd expect from you.

So there is no allowance for Escher and Goliath to take weapons from the legacy list even though many of their old models have weapons that only exist on that list and not on their new weapon list?

I don't think so (for now at least) but that is prob offset by the legacy gangs not having access to the new house specific gear.

I am sure there will be some kind of compendium at some point. Or additional content as the other gangs come out. Could always just house rule it that every gang has access to all equipment till then. Chainsword has rules (Gor Half-Horn FW download) but neither of the current gangs have access to one yet.

I could write my own rules or alternatively people who are actually paid to write rules could do so! These legacy rules were supposed to allow using old models, well they don't.

OK, but that's not my fault, just suggesting temporary work around's in case you absolutely, definitely must have a chainsword right now. Necro players have been out in the cold the last decade or so, making house rules is second nature.

Chainsword on Gor has the same stats as a legacy Sword.

Equip a chainsword with the same stats as Gor's, pay 25 points. Done

Which gangs had a heavy bolter model? Orlocks, Cawdor? Did Goliaths? The 1995 ones might have done, but not the Specialist Games ones (they got an autocannon, IIRC).

Goliath, Orlock and Cawdor I think.

Everyone had the Heavy Stubber.

Goliath and Cawdor had Grenade Launchers.

Delaque had Lascannon and Flamer

Orlock....Heavy Bolter and Heavy Stubber.

Escher and Van Saar had Heavy Stubber and Plasma Cannon

Legacy Rules:
Fighting Knife:
Range S:- L:E
Acc S:- L:-
S
AP:-1
D:1
Backstab, Melee

Goatboy´s PDF:
Chainsword:
Range S:- L:E
Acc S:- L:+1
S
AP:-1
D:1
Melee, Parry

Just a couple of questions on my part:
1. Why is there a range distinction for hand to hand weapons? They are close combat weapons after all and you would only need base to base contact anyway or am I wrong here?
2. What does "E" mean in Range (L)?

No but the stats for the "Sword" are the same as those of the Chainsword Gor has in his rules.

Agreed. Given how long they have been talking about Legacy rules I had expected they might put more effort into these.

If I'm being kind the limited variety of weapons is probably a balancing issue, where they don't want some weapon on an OOP model to be game breaking because it didn't get play tested.
But at the same time, how did they not proof read these and catch the glaringly obvious mistakes.
