Re: Soft announcement: new Ogre set!
This new edition may not have the real estate to accommodate this suggestion, but it would give it another reason to buy it and be really cool to have an OGRE Timeline
included like the one from OGRE Miniatures. It's such a good read of background stuff going on. Good for scenario ideas, and other musings like new units. From the year 1995 to 2105, it's only one page front and back, but such awesome background stuff. I was disappointed it was not in the Designers Edition, but maybe they are saving it to be in another release? It's too good to leave alone in OGRE Miniatures. I wonder how many new OGRE players or even players that just never saw OGRE Miniatures out there never even saw or will see this Timeline since it's from the OOP OGRE Miniatures. Please consider. Maybe even have an updated Timeline including new battles and new units... ;)...now that would be awesome.

Re: Soft announcement: new Ogre set!
Yes, spillover is a GEV rule. Leave it for that game or the full DE rules. Which you can still download for free.

Re: Soft announcement: new Ogre set!
When I wrote "Use spillover if you know that rule already," I should have explicity pointed out this would be a house rule. Regarding this thread's topic, tweaks and fixes to the Ogre 6th edn rule book, I definitely do not recommend including the spillover rules. The rules probably don't need to address the situation I described at all; I'd expect it to come up very rarely if ever.

Re: Soft announcement: new Ogre set!
This rule is not in your current attachment, and doesn't fall under the things you listed for "not needed" but I think it struggles as a sentence and could be looked at (marked in red below). Might want to change it in order to be very specific and say, "another OGRE or SPRHVY".
Also, because these units are submerged, would you want to make reference to other rules which include submarines, or units dropping depth charges, without going into the topic of submarines, by using a side panel with an asterisk to entice people to expand their collections? 7.14.4 Water. A GEV on water attacks and defends normally. An Ogre or Superheavy submerged in a water hex may not attack. It may be attacked only by a ram by another such unit Also, Steve said Quote:

at the mere blip of an OGRE on there sensor screens. Hence, such archaic weapon platforms are never deployed. :D

(Printed in ANOTHER #@**$%$?!! OGRE ARTICLE date unknown) Most of the mail shows a good deal of thought. I plan to steal the best comments and suggestions for future Ogre games . . . crediting the originators. Fair is fair. A sampling of the better mail to date: For me.. the shipyards are not waiting around, they are already churning out designs that I *may* send to a 3D printer as time permits.
