Dark Legion Forward Observers for Fire Missions
« on: July 25, 2006, 08:25:15 PM »
How does the Dark Legion utilize Fire Missions as described on pages 63-64? I've checked their lists and didn't find any units with this skill.  An error maybe?


Thanks!

From the FAQ

Quote
A Nepharite is considered a Forward Observer in any DL army. For one action, he may target any spot within 16" and LOS. This painted spot will become the focus of the particular fire mission represented by the Apostle. Any Division Commander or Nepharite may then call down the mission subsequently.

Obviously, the Cults and Horde do not have Fire Mission options.All Nepharites act as Forward Observers

generally, they'll have two.  one to kill everything, and the other to get everyone the first missed.

Note to self:

Bring 10 Nepharites.  Don't care about the force list.  Jibba must suffer pain.  Sweet template filled pain.

Sweet heavens!!

That's evil!! That combo's almost as good as a fire mission!!  A Horde list supplemented by an Algeroth force with nepharites can be really quite interesting.  2 Apocalypse and a fire mission.  (shiver...)

Just remember under UWZ rules you need to have 6 squads, 3 general officers, and a force commander to call in fire missions.

in addition, it has to be from one force.  In the this example all the units have to be from Algeroth, any Horde units you have don't count towards the total.

Steve you are required to have a force commander to call in fire missions and the rules for force commander are on page 36. As far as what pfcjoe stated i cant find that in the book or FAQ's but he is usually right and i have been known to overlook things.
