Rules for secret weapons look good.
Dont have the mag here but quick reference:

You byu the Weaopn for a player and then he keeps it. Add the cost of weapon to player.
When spotted there is a chance that the weapon is confiscated as well.
Only 1 weapon allowed on the field for each team (goblins can bring 2 onto the field) but otherwise no limit on the weapons on the team.
A player can choose to leave the weapon in the dogout for a drive if he so wishes.
The player still developes with ssp. (some like the deathroller ignores peoples stat+ skills)

All in all they look cool. I for one look forward to try them out.

Regards
Poul

Ach Gut! What comes to these rules, this is definitely the way to go! Having promoted a very similar solution, I'm happy that they decided to pursue this one. This offers flexibility and a nice way to add a hilarious part of the game to the rules.

Still think the TBBF rules are the way to go with SWs.
Still waiting for my sub copy of no.5

As these are experimental rules, I wouldn't hold my breath DFC. No re-release of kickers (or even talk of making new ones) and the kicking rules have been experimental for some time now.

No but it would not be that hard of a conversion.

Well I got bb mag 3&4 thru the canadian mail order so you should give them a call Zombie.

Frankly, i don't care. If they can't even get the mags in my local GW store, then they've lost my business. It's their loss, not mine.
