about artillery:
"There seems to be a great temptation to have armoured artillery units hanging about at the edges of the board and not really getting into the action..."
i play a mechaton-esque game i made myself and i have "artillery range" be around 14 inches so that you cant do the above edge-sitting
also: i rarely have all-artillery mechs, but more like 1/3 to 1/2 artillery weapons per arty mech so that the artillery mechs can defend themselves at HtH and direct fire ranges with claws and machine guns, etc.
p.s. i understand that direct fire range is middle range?
p.p.s how many inches is a hex?
