Greetings!
I'd like to start off by saying thank you, to Vincent, and to all who have helped him develop Mechaton. I've just recently discovered it, and have read through all the past posts here, with relish.
Many of the complaints I've had against traditional table-top war games have already been stated, so I'll just add a hearty "Word."
My plan this weekend is to buy some color coded dice and play till I drop.
I have a question about the yellow dice that doesn't seem to have been covered by a previous thread. (or perhaps I'm a goober)
I know the standard take on ECM is to assign it a blue die, as it IS a defensive attachment. However, could I take a yellow attachment instead, and scan my own dudes?
If in a three player battle, Player A scans Player B's mech, then Player C shoots the mech, Player C can use the Yellow die, right? So... Can Player B scan his own mech before Player C's turn, in an attempt to lower the yellow die? Like Jamming?
