I have an Idea for a type of rule for narrative and map based campaigns. So, lets say the are taking an area from the . For this gametype must have 12 gretchins. They must stay in one area for one turn to build a structure. The player must have up to 6 structures in reserve. If the gretchins before the turn is over, the structure is destroyed. This goes the same for all races. For example: = (servitors) =drones ect ect. You get the idea. So, does it work? Tell me in the comments if it works or if it needs to be ?

Just to clear up, the gretchins are tekkies.

Why the use of Emojis? I can't read it.

Lols, U wanna build stuff in game wit ur grots n drones n servitors. thats cute but therebis only 5-7 game turns.

I'm not clear on what you're saying. Are you suggesting rules for building structures up in the middle of a game using "worker" units like in an RTS? Or are you suggesting between battles in a narrative campaign you build up structures in an area?

oh i miss read. he wanted this for a narrative map based campaign. not sure how it would all work out. I never played that. Gud luk n hav fun wit dat.

and people like Valkyrie and Kain give me grief about posting "wtf are you talking bout subjects" here.

Both.

Its kind of like, exceedingly easy to kill a foot slogging unit of Gretchin or their equivalents in this game. Especially against IG who can toss out barrage pie plates on the slightest whim.

Trying to keep a bunch of them alive while they build some structure would be pretty much impossible unless a) they were immune to barrage in some manner and b) there was a lot of LoSB terrain on the board. Like a *lot*

I suppose you could make them immune to all shooting. Actually takes *some* skill to get a unit into contact with the builders rather than just erase them from 48" away
