Me and my group just flat out halved ranges completely - we kept flamers and pistols the same, what was best was, you saw places on the board where your units could be safe - but they could not help with hurting other units either.

How about take a page from the old fantasy book and include the movement characteristic into the charge? You can only charge what your move distance is, and still have to roll it. Some of the slowest stuff in the game is 4" move, I think death guard and nurgle min move is 5", so that isn't too bad. Would give more incentive to bikes and other fast units, but would make it impossible for all but jump units to charge after deep strike. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/756034/9956198.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/756034/9956198.page GMT
