<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Writing rules for units that can hijack vehicles"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/16.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Writing rules for units that can hijack vehicles
I was planning on writing rules for a unit for each army that can do this, and having them be specific to every army. I was also thinking about requiring a certain number of models being necessary to capture the vehicle, otherwise it suffers from being immobilized or something else negative, depending on the number of crew lost.

I'll post rules when I write them, probably starting the IG and then CSM.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3976579.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3976579.page GMT Writing rules for units that can hijack vehicles http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3981573.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3981573.page GMT Re:Writing rules for units that can hijack vehicles ig ork or sm tank (pft primitive lol) but obviously not all vehicles are the same.

I'm still iffy on crons and sm librarians being able to control/automatically glance Eldar tanks. Unless you have some really good fluff behind it, I don't like it.

That's actually a really good point. I was hoping to have at least a basic outlines of the rules available by this point. I do plan to have a unit for every army, that will be customized according to how that army would most likely accomplish that goal.

To compensate for the point that you raise, I could probably do something like specify what sort of tanks they can take over, or any tanks that they cannot take over. Obviously, things like Defilers and Monoliths would be off limits.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3998520.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3998520.page GMT Re:Writing rules for units that can hijack vehicles http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3998523.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3998523.page GMT Writing rules for units that can hijack vehicles http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3998528.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3998528.page GMT Writing rules for units that can hijack vehicles http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3998532.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3998532.page GMT Re:Writing rules for units that can hijack vehicles A single Leman russ requires up to 6 people with sponsons attached. 1 commander, 1 gunner, 1 loader, 1 driver, and 2 sponson gunners.


if a single entity got into a Leman Russ then at most it could drive it around and fire its hull mounted weapon (which if i recall is operated by the driver alone).


If there was to be hijacking units then they would need to be a squad of units that could dictate what weapons on the hijacked vehcale could operate.
Im sure if a Stormtrooper could he/she could hijack an enemy Leman Russ tank and have the squad take the positions inside the tank.

Also, when it concerns other vehicales lets say there are rules similar to a looted wagon (DONT" TOUCH DAT!) as the crew have no idea how to operate it.

Lets say Stormtroopers could hijack and they jack a Devilfish, they have no clue how to drive the thing so they might hit the wrong button and hurtle forwards smashing into other units (frendily or not) or even hit the wrong button and the vehicale goes BOOM!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3998838.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3998838.page GMT Writing rules for units that can hijack vehicles
I was planning on requiring a minimum number of specialists to be able to successfully hijack the vehicle, otherwise it would begin to suffer effects such as immobilized and weapon destroyed to represent the lack of sufficient operators.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3998986.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/433416/3998986.page GMT Writing rules for units that can hijack vehicles
