Subject: Bugs using phermones & 15MM Aliens/Predators/Marines figs
This is an idea from http://www.cs.utk.edu/~cowell/min/sg2/, on the Kryomek conversion for SG2. Basically, it uses the SG2 communication scheme for phermone communication. Note that if the communication is unsuccessful, the units operate "instinctively," and to keep them from activating, you must first pass your communication roll. "At the beginning of each Kryomek unit's activation, a Communication test must be made from the Warmaster to the unit member with the highest Leadership rating (all Kryomek have LR of 1, +1 for every wound). If successful, the unit may be moved as normal; if unsuccessful, the unit counts as uncontrolled. The Warmaster may attempt to control units outside his Control Radius, but at shift two die shifts down. A unit may only go unactivated, but only AFTER passing this control test." -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- By the way, I saw this recently on r.g.m.m. I ordered the basic pack (5 Marines, 29 aliens, rules) for $10, and 8 Skullhunters for $4, shipping $3. They are supposed to ship on Tuesday; I'll review when I get them. Oddly enough, when I called to order last week, I was told by an automated message the area code had changed. When I just called to get the new area code message agin, the call went through.
