Edit: This is terribly Embarrassing to have up here. Would like post and potentially thread removed, but in obscure section, so no worries.

That's cheezy and doesn't work that way if Alpha is worded in that fashion... you wouldn't take the heat but you'd still only do the ammount of damage required to take the mech from no-heat to shutdown.. granted you could do it every turn but it's not unlimited damage per shot.

Yup, GWNY is correct....unless you have a heat dial that goes to infinity, only a finite number of clicks available..........wether the heat affects you or not is what the Moon Terrain does.......

oooh scary... i actually understood all this....... and i thought i'd purged myself of this game........ :-x

back to the shower and the steelwool i think....

Okay, well, Then my Friend got this wrong

Lord_U, Drop the steel wool, and get out of the shower.

Don't feel bad Ulrik... I haven't played the game since the second expansion came out.. it's just that most of their rules are a lot more clearly worded that say 40k's

Yeah, it can be pretty straight forward, but other times it can really hurt to read. Combat Formations, NOE level...

They were actually running the "If there is no heat ever gained, unlimited damage alpha strike" at Cancon.

You have to love the sculpts they produce though.
