First of all, this game is hard as hell. Even the most pumped, badass, well trained Space Marine ever would lose his nerves at some point. Okay? So...just...okay. Don´t judge

To the point then!

If you have Deathwing Space Marine expansion, there is one specific card that has given me a headache. It´s called Fury Of The Lion. Im just baffled that how are you suppose to use this, because if you use Support card (On any team, because you can give tokens to anyone, unless the card says otherwise), then you get tokens, which you can use to attack, or defend. You can use tokens to roll a dice again, and again, as long as you have tokens left. So naturally I give tokens to those Terminators, who either need to defend themselves, or has good chance to slay Genestealers.

So this specific card, states exactly that, except it is supposed be it´s own special ability?... At this point, it just has seemed so stupid, so I made my own rule, and used tokens from the Door Card (which you activate to put tokens to it. You can use these later in a new location, to slay Genestealers at the beginning of that Location Set) to balance it out.

Images of the rule and the card are included in this. If anyone knows how to use this card "correctly" please do tell.

When you do a support action, you can hand the token to anyone. But you have to specifically assign them to someone at the point you get said token.

You can only use a support token on the terminator who is attacking (or being attacked), unless the card says otherwise.

Arbalan uses Fury of the Lion, and (since it's an attack card and he has a range 0 attack), can kill a bunch of 'stealers in front of him by rolling an attack die. This works exactly like every other attack card.

Arbalan's ability means that when he attacks, if

(a) he has a support token placed on his card by someone else's support ability

and

(b) his attack caused at least one kill

you can spend the token off Arbalan's card and attack again. Unlike a normal support token, you're not rerolling the dice, it's a whole new attack, with additional kills.



So essentially, have the rest of the squad do a string of support actions, build up Arbalan's stockpile of tokens on his card, then bring out the lightning claws to mince, blend, spindle, fold and puree.
