GCE Core Rules 1.4

Changelog:

• Bottlin’ Out bug is scenario specific. Recommend making it a feature of specific scenarios.
• Getting On and Off reworked to account for ORB allowing moving Vehicles to “drop off” Boyz while moving along.
• Attacking Stationary Vehicles and Gates patched with WS only.
• Tidied up the bike/small Vehicle wording a bit
• Tidied up the Vehicle thrusting rules
• Clarified template weapon hits on Crew locations
• Removed mention of Pinning for Drivers
• Pruned Stikkbombz in close combat rules – they’re in the faction packs!
• A bit more weapon genericization (Skorchas don’t need to have their own ammo roll section!)
• Closed zero wound loophole (affects experience for wounding hits)
• Added rules for tents
• Added dimensions for small and large teardrop templates
• Drivers now immune to Pinning
• Tweaked the scattering rules to be closer to ORB
• Refined description of Follow Up moves
• Glossary capitalisation overhaul
• Boarding Actions tidied up. Split between relevant Movement, Shooting and Close Combat sections. Could exist as standalone section if needed.
• Stationary, Out of Control, and Unopposed Vehicles rewritten.
• Added Order of Operations to Movement and clarified targets for charging
• Buffed Overwatch to give +1 to hit rather than -1
• Pilin’ On only works for a single round (so users can’t form one invincible defender that faces all attackers)
• Clarified combat sequences for shooting, hand-to-hand, and vehicles.
• Added jumping across gaps/down drops and fleshed out falling mechanics

Andrew Meijers let me know this morning that I'd used to wrong diagram for gas engine movement on page 39. Fixed!

• Made bikes a type of small Vehicle rather than their own type
• Added diagrams explaining ramming
• Added diagrams explaining swerving
• Standardised on “difficult ground” rather than a mish-mash of “difficult terrain” and “difficult ground”
