What are people bringing up this Wednesday? Some Infinity and some WM is what I've heard so far.
What does the card say?

Well, if it makes anyone feel better, actually translating the Spanish rules directly would result in the FC multiplier for deviations to be 2.36 instead of 2.5, so the deviations should be slightly smaller. But the change for American audiences to a round number is official so good luck arguing for that in a tournament.

It seems reading the rules can clear up some issues with template weapons.

A speculative shot can target a point on the field instead on a target model. This applies a -6 bs modifier plus and distance mod. The template cant be placed in this fashion to place the template on a TO or camo target that hasn't been discovered.

A forward observer that marks a target will negate the speculative shot penalty for the shooter.

This doesn't help with the deviation issue but does help in working around the failure margin of a potential bad roll.

So this Wednesday. I think I am going to bring my Infinity and Netrunner. I would like to try the Yet Another Mission system for infinity. Who else is showing up?

Also I may bring some terrain. Madness terrain isn't the best for Infinity.

I'll try to make it. I'll know for sure tomorrow whether I can make it or not.
It doesn't matter which special edition it is, it's still just Risk.

Sure, it will be interesting playing someone who can take out half their own guys with AoEs before I get to them.

Tried the YAMS and was an improvement to the game experience. I'd did feel luck of the draw on the missions relating to how my force composition is. Those familiar with Heavy Gear, what are thoughts on that scenario system? You have some control on objectives that better fit your army.

I liked the YAMS as well. I decimated Don's army, but he won with one more VP than I could grab. What is the ruling for a tie?

Terry, you were telling me and James that a model gets an ARO after a speculative shot is resolved. Can you provide citation in the rules to support that as I'm not finding it. Only thing that I found is under change facing, if a model doesn't have an aro it can change facing if hit by an enemy attack. Since my model is not in Los or in the opposing model ZoC they can't take an ARO to the attack.
