40K Rules Complaints

Please leave in the comments your complaints about the rules in Warhammer 40k.  Please be specific as to why you believe the rule in question is a bad, imbalancing rule, and leave as much detail as possible (especially where the rule is located, if there's any errata, if you house-rule it, suggestions to fix it, etc.).

Wargaming thanks you.

  1. True LoS:

    If an enemy unit has LoS to only one of the models in my unit, why can the entire unit be wiped out?

    We should cap the number of wounds a unit can take, to the number of visible models in that unit.

    10 man unit, enemy unit has LoS to 3 models (the rest are behind a building or something), even if the enemy unit has 20 models firing, the maximum amount of wounds my unit can take is 3.
