Scammel Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) Hello folks, The Ammunition Dump upgrade for an Aegis Defence Line is rather cheap and potentially very powerful, so keen to get this one right. To my knowledge, there's not a jot of guidance on the dimensions of the terrain piece (page 101) and I don't feel that the OOP FW 'ammo dump' model is a good baseline, so this might just be a community gut-feeling consensus - do you think a Dreadnought-sized base would be appropriate? How high are you willing to go? Is Riptide a little too much? Edited January 12, 2020 by Scammel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ergonomic Enginseer Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I felt that for a model size it would be the pallet with ammo boxes that comes in the battlefield accessories set. Noserenda and Gorgoff 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noserenda Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 I felt that for a model size it would be the pallet with ammo boxes that comes in the battlefield accessories set. This has certainly been the case every time ive seen it played (got a few myself :D ) So a 40 or 50mm base might work but 60mm is probably too big.

Brofist Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 In the stronghold assault rulebook, we have this line: Any model within 2" of an ammunition dump re-rolls failed To Hit rolls of 1 in the Shooting phase. A model in cover behind an ammunition dump has a 5+ cover save. So, if you go by that, it should at least be big enough to give an infantry model a cover save.

Looks great and can't be overseen by the players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ironic Warrior Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 I'm planning on building an ammo dump on a 50mm base using the drop pod objective marker and some ammo crates to make a little diorama for my Havocs and Deredeo to guard!
