Basic Training: Know Your Enemy

THE SHORT VERSION

Stephen Box proposes a short, reciprocal pre-game conversation to prevent avoidable surprises. His questions cover detachments, unusual Deep Strike ranges, indirect fire, fight-first and fight-on-death abilities, objective bonuses, movement tricks, damage reduction and command-point generation. Concrete examples explain how each answer affects screening, deployment, target priority and threat ranges. A reusable sheet at the back of the issue leaves room for a player’s own questions and a clear account of the rules their opponent should know.
