Just a random idea I had: Would it be possible (aka doable without rewriting the whole rules system) to allow fortifications in other slots than just the fortification slot (thus removing the 1 per army limitation)?
Some examples of something similiar allready being done would be the static- forgeworld modells (artillerry, automated turrets).


Biggest problem I see, would be that there's no army specific fortifications, and some armies get a much larger mileage out of them than others (I'm looking at you Tau).


Advantage I see: It's another possible way to build an army. It allows for storm the fortress kind of games without need of a special ruleset.

You could just make the fortification slot 0-3 to have your cake and eat it too if you can pony up the points.

A Bastion inside a fortress, surrounded by a defense line...yes.

I make bad decisions and think they are good.

And is duct taped to a firestorm redoubt with vengeance batteries poking out the sides.

We can do so much better than that.

Three Tomb Citadels, with three monoliths.

Where are your gods now?

At least that fits. That's three ROB tiles, right?
