Hello fellow Battle-Brothers,

I must confess not a real rules question. But after flipping through the pages I come to the conclusion that it is very easy to get a bonus for WS and very hard for BS. I just wonder why a lot of talents vs. distinctive enemies, namely hatred, only add to the WS. And if you look at the armory, the increase in craftmanship just add a bonus to WS for melee weapons where you only get something like reliable for ranged weapons.

And my feeling tells me that the hunt for bonuses goes on with the solo- and squad mode abilities. I wondered again that you have cool solo mode abilities for the devastator and even the tactical marine where I ask myself: Why should they enter squad mode? Namely the Devestator has no possibility to take advantage of some abilities like Bolter Assault since it allows only a single shot what is not possible for him with his heavy bolter.

I confess that I do not have that much experience with the system but these thoughts are rising in my head just by flipping through the pages.

Cheers,

TechVoid.

Have a look at the signum and signum link wargear. Or the Squade Mode abilities Strongpoint and Fire Support. Sometimes you also just need to be in Squad Mode to enable another brother to remain in Support Range.

Alex

semi and full auto also give signifigant BS bonuses,

Hmmmm, I would rather say the problem is the other way around actually:

WS:
- Hatred
- Craftmanship

BS:
- Range
- Signum
- Red Dot
- Motion Predictor
- M.I.U.
- RoF
