Side Hexes
Side hexes are a little confusing to me as single hex entities normally only have front (3) & rear (3) Hexes. Is that referring to flank hexes on a multi hex entity? - 16:17, 11 September 2013 (NZT) Bernard
Evade and Riposte
I think this has been over complicated and Ripostes made too unlikely.
- Riposte has been moved to far down the chart, it is only possible on a 10% of Defence over 100 roll against a fumble and 10% of defence over 200 against a standard hit.
- The increased evading defence appears to be an attempt to bring ripostes into the realms of possibility but they are still highly unlikely.
I think that the various increases to defence can be removed if ripostes happen earlier (as per the Proposed numerical resolution and this makes the defensive evading fighter viable again.

Bleeders
I think these add more book-keeping without adding sufficient extra flavour/value to be worth while.

Seconded on that front. It's nice to have them but just keeps getting forgotten. Same with the armour damage on the non spec grev blows.
