Assault Vehicle distance meassuring - first post

I build my Raiders without sails, as it fits into the box easier...

But then I don't follow DE fluff, just crunch. My boats have magic carpets built into their hulls.!

To the OP: I simply declare at the start of the game, when I am summarising my army for my opponent, that prows and rudders are OUT for all purposes, so not valid targets for him, and not springboards for assaults.

i like the argument about the hull having to touch the hull of the opposing vehicle. If i have a ram in the front I cant make the hulls touch. If my skimmer gets rammed from the front where should my opposing player place their vehicle?
