The Commander Series Forum

Hi, I was playing with my bugs this Friday and we ran into a question re swarms and artillery

So, my question is, where do you measure artillery from as there is no command unit?

When you call in artillery, do you calculate the distance of the swarm, or do you just make a straight roll?

Thanks

From the unit nearest the point where you want the artillery - that should've been in the list, but for some reason...

Hi Pete, thanks for that. That is what we thought, being the whole hive mind idea and all.

Say, just for example, that the Swarm has not yet deployed so that there are no bugs on the table.

Would it be reasonable to assume the nearest point is measured from your designated table edge or centre of deployment zone if mid table?

I envisage bug artillery as some form of spore attack to knock out pray prior to the feeding frenzy.

Yes that sounds reasonable.
