********************************************************************************************************************

Summary
 
 OK, after failing some many rallies Saim-Hann, conceded, since there wasn’t much left. He need to get the SR on turn 2, but didn’t and if he had, the result may have be different…
 
 
10cm Counter charge rule(start of turn 2)..OK this time, there was one case were it pop up, but Trent didn’t take advantage of it. It would have meant the Reaver got no support and a chance it would have fail the engagement..I believe I won by 2, so it would have been a tie, since support got 2 kills..Hopefully some more testing is coming in the next week..
 

Expert rider rule:..Trent was happy to use it and a few time it worked fine for him.. 

Scout Rider Troupe: Well they basically stay where they were and this only came about since I ignored them and Trent wanted them to hold the Objectives..

HORNETS: Again I think the 30 cm range on the hornets, feels about right. It does force you to move the formation more.So where's before you may have done a single move, you are now doing a double move..So a bit more though into its deployment etc.

 
Regards
Greg
