With 40k3, we saw a very distinct shift in both the overall atmosphere of the game universe, and in the design philosophy. How do you feel about the current overall direction of the game, and in what ways would you like to have 40k4 (both the new rulebook, and future supplements) change that?
40kv4 is a direct progression of v3. It focuses on making the game more dynamic by encouraging movement and splitting combat into three phases (ranged fire, firefight & assault) rather than two phases as present.
When you say combat is being split into three phases, does this mean the game is gaining a new phase, or just how you envisage games being played is going to change? If the former, how is it likely to work?
This is about the way the game is played will change. Getting to close range and shooting is now an equally vlid option to moving forward just to assault.[/b]
