I can't believe no one has posted about this yet.
The updated rules for the Ninja cybertank are up, and I'm curious what people think.
I like the simplicity compared to the earlier rules, and I do have one thought on the Ninja's detection ability:
Quote:

A Ninja has state-of-the-art detection equipment, giving it advanced awareness of mines and other hidden units. Whenever a Ninja is about to enter a hex with a mine or a hidden unit, the opposing player needs to acknowledge the presence of a mine (or hidden unit) within the hex. The Ninja may then choose to stay still, move elsewhere, or continue into the hex. If a Ninja voluntarily enters a mined hex, the mine goes off only on a roll of a 6, instead of the usual 5 or 6.

This would also work for camouflaged and dummy units, allowing the Ninja to detect them from an adjacent hex instead of having to move into or shoot into the hex to reveal the enemy.
What does everyone else think about this version of the Ninja?
