>>47076133

They're "rule in favor of RAI/weaker interpretation" of vague RAW rules where Tau get the option of "lol that's fucking broken noway GW meant this when they wrote this shitty unclear rule" or "that's pretty good why do Tau get more special shit on top of this formation full of good units?".

It's by vote too so don't blame the organizers, the players themselves don't want to put up with an entire Tau army all benefitting from the same shared markerlights and ignore cover.

M8, when more than half the players play marines, you can bet things are biased.

People claiming otherwise are the same faggots who insist some games are objectively good. Some people need to stop using words they don't actually know what means.

>>47076607
Go to a local store that sells 40k stuff, look around and get a feel for when players are around and if there's any other places you can play, don't buy anything though that's important, do some research (maybe have a look through the codices), then build yourself a 500 point list or so and go see if anyone is willing to play a bit to show you the ropes.

I'm going through the same thing myself.

>>47076195
>>47076204
I thought most people use the ITC FAQ, even in more casual games, no?

>>47076804
>>47076204

ITC rules are fine IMO. The only bullshitty part is not allowing come the apocalypse allies but otherwise it seems reasonable and balanced.

>>47076611
Not exactly "squadron", as that makes them a unit and requires unit coherency.

Each "choice" can take up to 4 models, but they can act independantly. They just get bonuses for being in certain formations.

>>47076836
Some do, and it IS widely used - as I said, house rules aren't necessarily a bad thing. But you cannot claim they aren't house rules.

>>47076838
Yeah, they are mostly fine, my only beef with it os the lack of direction. At first it was intended to be a "global FAQ" to answer shit that GW refused to clarify. Then they started making actual rules changes. And I mean, sure, some of them are fine (Straight up nerfs lile the Tau Drone factory and Invisibility) but it just feels way off when you start nerfing certain things, but leave others be. I can understand trying to balance the game, but if they want to do that, they should actually do it, rather than nerf a few specific things, but leave other things untouched.

This way of halfassing it just feels stupid in my opinion. Either you go full balace mode, or you stick to clarifying the rules that people disagree on.

Discussions about the Tau Tidewall seems to have died off quite hard after the inital spergout we had here on /tg/, so I thought I might bring it up under less dumb conditions.

Since I run a farsight enclaves CAD, i can fit in fortifications. My initial thought was to bring it all, but that becomes expensive AND unwieldy. If we assume taking only 1 of them, that ISN'T the railgun platform, what would you prefer? The wall? The drone platform? Maybe 2 seperate pieces?

You guys play with friends or do those store meetups? Also how expensive is it really? Did it just seem like a whole lot because I was a kid or what

I have a decently active shop and have made a few good friends there so I usually get 3-4 games a month in.

I'd never even heard of them until now.

So a couple of lore questions.

What is the expected fleet loadout for a Space Marine chapter? I don't mean those that are fleet-based like the Black Templars, I'm talking about your average chapter like the Ultrasmurfs, White Scars, etc.

I know the average chapter has 2 or 3 Battle Barges, with obviously larger chapters having more (especially those that don't follow the Codex for force sizes), but what about strike cruisers, support ships, etc. Any concrete info there?

Any sources on how many crew are in various tanks?

For example:

A Russ,

A Baneblade,

A Predator,

A Vindicator,

>>47077637
I think the Leman Russ cutaway had 4 crew

>>47077637
Baneblades are at least 10-

"The tank is a venerated Standard Template Construct (STC) design, with ten people needed to fully crew one. It is also one of the oldest STC designs in existence. They are often used as command vehicles by Imperial Guard commanders. "

File: Worlds_of_40k.pdf (1B, 486x500px)

Here is the pdf for various rules when fighting on diffrent planets. Just thought if someone here wanted it

>>47077637

Space Marine Tank crew seem to be fully armoured marines.

Not serfs, not even marines not in bulky armour whilst trying to load a fucking Demolisher cannon, fully armoured marines.

>>47077692

I'LL TAKE MY ARMOUR OFF WHEN I'M INTERRED IN A DREADNOUGHT BROTHER, AND NOT BEFORE. NOW IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME, I HAVE A PLANE TO PILOT.

>>47077637
Russ has 4: driver, loader, gunner, commander. Predator is 2, driver and commander, IIRC. Vindicator is probably the same. Space Marine vehicles use the Machine Spirit to aid in firing and handling multiple weapons, whereas Guard vehicles require humans to do it.

Baledrakes were only oppressively good when they could Vector Strike a transport to death and flame the dudes while they were bunched up, and that was always a fairly lucky occurrence. As soon as your enemy spread out, Baledrakes struggle to make their points back.

>>47077980
Just as planned- all enemy units lose obsec and Tzeentch marked units gain obsec for any one turn.

>>47077934
If you take Demolishers, kitting them with a heavy flamer and heavy flamer sponsons is good for area denial once you're close enough to use the cannon. An Executioner as 'squad lead' is nice, especially fitted out with plasma cannon sponsons. Gives excellent crowd control.

>>47077980
Make Thousand Sons S5 AP4 Bolters with Soulfire. Make his psychic table a mix of Telepathy and Divination (a bit like how Sanguinary is a mix of Biomancy and Pyromancy)

>>47078020
I1

>>47078020
Still Int 1.

>>47078020
pretty sure it's after modifiers, so they're still I1

>>47078031
There's no point in taking anything on the Demolisher nor the regular Russ. Ordnance makes them snap fire all the rest of their weapons, so you're wasting points on weapons you're barely ever going to use. Only upgrade I'd give them is a pintle-weapon to reduce the chance of losing the main gun in case of Weapon Destroyed, but other than that sponson and hull guns are useless investments.

>>47078031
Right now I'm planning on fielding a pair of Wiverns for crowd control so I'm looking for something to deal with heavy infantry, MCs and heavy tanks.

None of us use those houserules, we've only seen one player show up who was using forgeworld riptides and citing stuff from those rules that made them better.

The fact that many use the ITC houserules is a fallacy they propagate to promote their rules, which won't matter when GW releases their FAQ's very soon.

>>47078020
I1. It's stated in the initiative section that rules that "set" initiative take precedence after rules that add or subtract to it. AFAIK, locus isn't an exception (so the locus would be overwritten by your initiative being set at 1 by the charge).

Heavy flamer as the hull weapon on a Demolisher: If you get weapon destroyed, you're close enough to maybe get a chance to use it, it's free, and there's a very limited number of situations where firing a heavy flamer is more useful than a Demolisher cannon anyhow.

I think of Cancerous as "unfun to play against," but people can have fun playing against Eldar as long as you use as little D and as few Wraithknights as possible.

An Aspect Host, for instance, is damn fluffy and pretty alright to play against.

>>47078196

>mfw my lgs meta is Knightspam, wraithwings, and Tau gunlines

>>47078059

Guard have a lot of ways to deal with that. Vets meltaspam, Vanquishers (add in Beast Hunter shells if you also want to rekt TEQ and MC's), and the mighty Battle Tank (good against literally everything that's not flying).

An interesting, often underused option against super-heavies is the Manticore. This is covered on the wiki (I wrote that tactical note) but I'll put it here:
Between the d3 shots, S10 ordnance and the generally large size of super-heavies, a storm eagle is statistically likely to score 2 or so glances/pens against an enemy super-heavy each shooting phase. If the enemy has no real blobs or other, more appropriate targets to deal with, the Manticore can actually be a pretty cost-effective choice against a Super-Heavy vehicle. Without support, it'll probably take several turns to bring it down, but it's reliable damage, and the value of that can't be understated.

>>47078376
In that case why not just have the commander throw his shoes at them. Longer range than a stubber and more damage.

I say stick to the main gun and nothing else.

>>47078357
See above, anon-kun.

>>47078392
That's your fault then. Typical Orkfag logic. Instead of changing how they play or the army, they keep banging their head against an apparently insurmountable problem, then complaining their heads hurt.

Typical.

That's the point
Without D at least you can feel like most of your positioning and unit choice mean something.
Without a GC to shoot at, at least you feel like your attacks are doing something.

>>47078460
IA1 I think.

>>47078414
>I say stick to the main gun and nothing else.

Well that's what I've been saying the whole time.

My only points about the stubber is that in terms of buying weapon upgrades for the Demolisher, it's about the only one you have any reason to sink points into, if for nothing else, the fact that it reduces the chance of losing the main gun from 50% to 33%.

And Orkfags can't read it seems.

>>47078523
>implying there's a way to play Orks that can compete with WAAC Eldar, Tau, or Space Marines

>>47078523
Orks don't have efficient answers to Super Heavies and struggle overall to fight heavy flyer/mech lists. That's why they are considered one of the worst race crunch-wise.

On a waac tier meta, it's near impossible for an Ork army to win, even when relying on stupidly cheesy lists.

>>47078553
The only move is not to play...
>Or unbound Custom Stompa swarm???

>>47078523
>How they play
Baseless assumption that anon is playing wrong
>OR the army
Still encouraging the habit of buying a completely new army because your favourites can't deal with metalists.

Playing the wrong way definitely isn't a prerequisite for getting hammered as Orkz. You can play the cheesiest, most horrible list that they can physically summon and still be wiped by Eldar/Tau metalists.

I'm sure you could have come to these conclusions if you put any amount of thought into it.

>>47078344
Still a very strong force, but not quite as insane.

>>47078553
Go Unbound. Or go Gretchen swarms to camp objectives.

>>47078561
Then you just have to outright not play and find a better group. You either play and expect to lose 99% of the time and 'enjoy' it, or you leave and join another group which doesn't have douchebags. Yet it seems you'd rather bang your head against WAACfags you'd struggle to win 50% of the games even with a good dex and then moan that you can't win, then trying to fix the situation. Unless they're unredeemable cunts, ask them to go easy on you, if they deny, then go "I don't want to play with an army that will beat me on turn 1, bye"

>>47078580
You misunderstood.

>Anon knows they're WAACfags
>Still brings Orks to the table despite knowing they're WAACfags

Either ask them to tone it down, play another army, or leave. Again, banging your head on the wall and complaining your head hurts.

Poof. For about 400 points you get the Guard version of a vindicator and a tank that can one-shot Riptides from across the board, and can get twin-linking if its target is within 36".

Good vehicles in an edition where vehicles are weak isn't saying much.

>>47078344
Strong? Yes. But anyone who complains about Eldar using infantry and tanks are fucking faggots.

>>47078781
>an edition where vehicles are weak

Is this bait ? Tankhammer had never been so much a thing than since the introduction of hullpoints.

>>47078776
Or lots of other hobbies. Four track tyres (that last maybe a day) cost more than an army.

A year's supply of paintballs costs more than an army.

A single day's training costs more in tuition and ammo than an army.

>>47078806
Are you stupid or a newfag? Vehicles were stronger in every edition after 2nd than they are in 7th.

>>47078776
Or Golf. Or Riding. Or Tennis.

What should I expect about the Eldar at 600 pts?

>>47078691
>>47078776
40k isn't expensive though. Unless you're literally telling everybody to buy a 10k army from GW direct, all the paints, tools, hobby cases and modelling supplies from them as well, in one go?

Every hobby on the planet is expensive. That's why it's called a hobby.

If you buy one box a month, you'll have an army soon enough. If you buy armies from Ebay, even cheaper.

This meme has to stop, it's a meme which perpetuates the idea that GW is somehow super expensive when it isn't at all. There is literally no difference between GW and any other hobby.

>>47078862
I would still argue that 30 eurobucks for a mono-pose character is BS

>>47078915
eh. For minis of comparable quality its not to much more. Besides that the expensive character blisters are really just optional fancy minis. There's nothing stopping you just converting a guy from a unit kit for your characters. SM captain from sternguard/vanguard vet or necron lords/crypteks from the lychguards kit are common examples I've seen a lot.

>>47078846
Holly shit do the maths retard. Heavy and artillery damage tables gone, heavy tanks benefits from the new system. Yes light vehicle suffer more due to superficial damage chipping away hull points but everything with AV13+ is way stronger than it was before.

I don't expect a retarded imbred fuck like you to grasp basic algebra but at the very least don't spout shit about things you don't understand you subhuman mongoloid piece of shit.

Do you think Agility and Pursuit stats alone will make decent otherwise unremarkable or bad flyers?

>>47078961
Lol god damn

Are Night Spinners worth anything?

>>47078915
Correct, but you don't need to buy it to represent what it does. It's also, for the quality (yes, it is higher than lots of companies, regardless of what /tg/ memes) it's not bad.

Again. In 2000, a Tactical Marine box was £15. In 2016, if you apply inflation, that's £22.50. In 2016 a Tactical Marine box is £25. You get more weapons and customization options now for that extra £2.50. Plus I think they get rules in the box now? I've not bought Tacticals for 16 years.

>>47078973
They'll make Orks even worse than they already are.

>>47078973
the change too only Fighters getting skyfire will probably do that more. Most of the mediocre flyers are the fighter ones that have lacked the kind of firepower people like to point at ground targets. But now that something like the vendetta doesn't have skyfire anymore the nephellim is now a more decent AA choice since skyfire is a rarer thing too come across.

If its enough i dunno but its something.

>>47079023
I like how many extra bolters I have laying around from all the tactical boxes I've bought.

Some day I will make a guy dual wielding bolters and talk my friend into letting me use him for something.

>>47079124
Because Salamanders can make them Master Crafted for free and Cypher can use it as a melee weapon (so S7 AP2 melee attacks).

>>47078961
No, even heavy tanks are easier to kill (and much more predictable to kill which is a major problem).

Just look at what's winning major tournaments now and in 5th.

>>47078961
But big tanks are still susceptible to Melta one-shots, there are far more D weapons, Grav (!!!), Haywire, and auto-glance bullshit. This is not a fun time to be a tank.

>>47078961

>>47078747
Can't resell that 40k for full price at all. Magic decks are an investment, 40k armies are a dollar sink.

>>47079023

Counterpoint to that is the absurdly low cost of production.

>>47079135
General Grizmund. He's pricey, but MEAN. He gives BS4 to a single squadron in his detachment and every tank within 12" re-rolls the first missed to-hit roll in the shooting phase. Pair with a squadron of vanquishers to turn every vehicle on the board inside-out.

>>47079169
Counterpoint to that is the absurdly high cost of molds, R&D, and keeping the brick and mortars alive.

Magic is paper with arbitrary value, one that shifts from 0 to whatever based on if the card is even legal for play.
If you want to invest, use the stock market. Magic can die anytime, and chinaman fakeys are killing your value.

Futhermore, if you take a box of tacticals and assemble, paint and magnetize it well enough, you can sell it for MSRP easily. Same goes for any model really.

Can someone explain to me what this theory about the Emperor dying and becoming an actual (maybe) Chaos God?

Emperor is sort of like Cthulhu, alive but dead on the golden throne, strongly connected to the warp and affects things there, like the chaos gods.

Chaos god represent several key aspects of life in an unfiltered form psychic warp form. Emp's is like against all that cuz muh heresy.

There is also an forgotten god Malal or Malice which is like anti-chaos-gods chaos god. Essentially on the side of imperium. One theory is Malal is Emp's raw psychic energy manifested.

>>47076984
The drone platform is very cost effective, but at the same time you'd need a reason to use the drones, and a unit to sit on the disc to benefit from the rerolls.

If you have Skies of Death in effect, but don't have a flying vehicle in reserves while your enemy does, you automatically get -1 to reserves while the flyer opponent gets +1 or +2.

The reason I liked it was due to the Super Heavy Formation counts as a single squadron, so you can make them BS4 without forking out for the Target sponsons.

But yeah, Vanquishers is great. Or Executioners. Or Punishers. That'd be neat. BS4 for three against GEQ's.

>>47079437

Theory basically goes
>Incredibly powerful psyker
>Worshippers have manifested actual blessings

And it's possible that if he died on the throne that might free him to be the warp god of humanity and continue the battle against Chaos that he started while alive.

Some fluff could be used as a justification, like Targutai Yesugei's vision in Brotherhood Of The Storm, where he makes a choice between accepting the gift of the chaos gods and refusing them. Representations of the 4 gods and of the Emperor are there.

>He was like the four beast-figures. There was some relationship between them, something I could sense but did not understand. The four were scared of Him.

Basically. The Emperor was a super gestalt entity powered by loadsa shamans. He was super powerful and was killing the Chaos Gods until the heresy happened.

He then went 'into hiding'.

One of the longest running things in 40k is the Golden Throne is failing and nobody knows why. The Ad Mech have even gone to Commorragh to trade with the Dark Eldar for technology to help this (possibly clone tech, so Age of the Emperor can be made when the Emperor model is released by Forge World).

:::HEAD CANON ZONE:::

My headcanon is that the Golden Throne is failing due not to a mechanical failing, but due to it being unable to control the power the Emperor now has.

Think about it. The Chaos Gods get their power from souls and worship. Well, what does the Emperor have? Souls, at least 10k a day for 10,000 years AND trillions, if not quadrillions of people worshipping him every day. He is essentially being powered the same way the Chaos Gods are powered. This means the Emperor has been gathering souls and power for 10k years, that's a lot of XP. The Golden Throne wasn't designed to hold the Emperor, it was designed to hold Magnus.

So now it's breaking and the reason is cause the Emperor is insanely powerful now. The End Game being the Emperor comes back and allows all the pyskers in the Imperium to use their full powers without fear of warp rifts and thus scour the warp clear.

>>47080359

Sorry, anon, but he can only buff tank squadrons from his own detachment. That's one LoW choice at most, which means one baneblade.

Besides, all the Super-Heavies use blast weapons, where the difference between BS3 and BS4 isn't all that great.

>executioners
Those are blasts, which don't roll to-hit (they roll scatter), meaning the re-rolls don't work. Did you mean exterminators? They're already twin-linked. It's basically for Punishers and vanquishers; every other tank weapon is either a template, blast, or is already twin-linked to begin with.

Baledrakes become significantly better when you're playing a table with heavy terrain. That Ignores Cover becomes a godsend, and since most people will cluster their units in cover, they tend to be far less spread out than they otherwise would be.

people are attracted to card games over table top because it lacks the hobby aspect. They don't want to spend time modeliing and painting.

People who like the table top typically like modeling and painting.

Very very few people actually make money buying and selling magic cards, at most they reduce the cost to do the thing that they like.

If you don't like modeling and painting, that's fine. If you do, that is also fine. But please don't act like most people who play magic do it to make money. It a thing they spend money on because they find it fun. Same as 40k.

A: The 25% rule applies in all types of terrain if the target is a Flyer, Super-heavy Vehicle, Flying Monstrous Creature or Gargantuan Creature. All other targets count as being in cover if they are in or on the terrain’s base, even if not 25% obsured.

Time works differently in the Warp, brah. The Chaos Gods have little perception of time due to living in a realm where there is no linear time. 8 thousand years could be just an eyeblink for them.

Also they already wrote the fate of Emperor down before Horus even was corrupted. The Emperor will be destroyed by Abaddon

Hey guys, was planning on starting a <1000 point kreiger army.

It's super expensive I know, but I like the painting and modeling.

Anyway, are they a good army at all? Or should I stick to vanilla ig?

>>47081096
Do DKoK and run them as vanilla IG. There, best of both worlds. They have fun unique units like the Mole Launcher and the Hades Drill.

>>47080519
Independent characters gaining formation benefits is pretty crazy. I expect to see a lot more Skyhammer's being used to slingshot CC characters into melee.

Possession having access to the D-thirster is huge, and the hange to how summoned FMC's enter play is also massive. Like holy shit, Tzeentch Daemons are retard strong now.

>>47081063
no, it did. If it was 50% you have found someone somewhere who agreed with you. Besides, you never presented it as you had a 50% chance of being right, but insisted you were absolutely right.

But you were absolutely wrong, and everyone else figured it out without having to have it spelled out. So no, just you. Wrong. Very wrong. had been wrong for a long time. Probably wrong about many other things in your life.

Maybe take a lesson from this. Take all those other things where everyone else has been disagreeing with you and realize that in time there will be something even you can't deny showing you were wrong. It might save you some embarassment in the future.

So, who are perpetuals and nulls? And who are Sensei and Malal?

>perpetuals

Ancient Immortals humans from the dawn of time on Terra. Their origin is a mystery. Pious, Alivia, and the Emperor are among them.

>nulls
People born with no soul due to the Pariah gene.

>Sensei and Malal

Not canon.

meltabomb units too

I guess it does mean dreadnoughts are a little less instantly dead in combat.

Spoilers: It was already dead

>>47081409
Dark Eldar army was dead a while ago. We all knew how the Jinking issue would be ruled.

Either complain for the next several months/years, buy a new army, or make some homebrew rules. Your in the same boat as Orks now. CSM would be in the same situation if they didn't have Space Marines count-as.

>>47081439
Opps I misread. It's not about the Behemoth. It's abouyt Cassius stopping the Tyranids from threatening Terra.

How did the Tyranids get this far?! Hype levels tripled.

>>47081458
CSM are much better off than Orks and Dark Eldar. Why do people insist that they're the absolute worst?

>How did the Tyranids get this far?!

>>47081481
CSM are not better off than DEldar. They are better off than Tyranids and Orks.

>>47080953
That's what the rules say - as long as you're using the terrain datasheets in the rule book.

>>47080599

So do Crisis get Overwatch with both guns again?

>>47081545
Yeeeeup.

Fuck! They nerfed Haywire. Now I can't kill vehicles/walkers in a single turn of assault.

>>47081409
Why?

>>47081563
Unit inside a jinking transport must also snapfire

>>47081517
What makes Deldar better than Chaos Marines? And don't say Eldar as Battle Brothers.

>>47081561
What did they do to it?

>>47081208
eldar gets some pretty big hits from this.
Hawks are now not a great anti-vehicle choice, and fire dragons charging to follow up on a vehicle they didn't kill aren't nearly as good.

Okay, the second one isn't nearly as big as typically you run with the fire dragons to get in metla range, and they typically blow things up without needing the charge.

Hawks got a real nerf though.

>>47081612
You can only throw a grenade per phase, it's not even a new rule it's just a clarification for people who didn't read the grenade section

Bonuses to weapons that affect bearers and FMCs is good news for daemons, same with the chariot exception for embarked psykers and the witchfire bonuses too. FAQ both states IC psykers in the same squad can manifest the same power and can't at different points though?

>>47081612

1 model replaces his attack with the grenade profile. Same as the shooting phase.

>>47081603
haywire scourges, jetbikes, ravangers, fast troops for the objective game, tons of poison is good against MCs.

They are fragile as fuck, but they can do things. though the new jink ruling might take them below CSM now.

Games Workshop ladies and gentlemen.

IMAGES AND WRITTEN FAQ DISCREPANCIES
>JINK

>Q: If a blast template scatters onto a Skimmer, can that Skimmer still Jink even though it was not actually targeted by the shot?
>A: Yes.

>(Images says "After")


>FLYERS

>Q: Can a Flyer make a Bombing Run on the same turn that it enters Ongoing Reserves by leaving the battlefield?
>A: Yes.

>(The image says no)

>>47081693
>INDEPENDENT CHARACTERS
>Q: Infiltrate rules state that an Independent Character without Infiltrate cannot join a squad of Infiltrators. Does this mean a squad that is actively Infiltrating or just any unit that has the Infiltrate rule? This matters for things like Outflank (granted freely by the Infiltrate rule) and Infiltrate units that have Deep Strike.
>A: An Independent Character without the Infiltrate special rule cannot join a unit of Infiltrators during deployment, whether they are Infiltrating, Deep Striking, Outflanking or deploying normally. They are free to join units as they wish after deployment.

>(Image just says "no")


>Q: If I’m using a special Detachment, such as the Nemesis Strike Force Detachment, and add Independent Characters from Battle Brother Factions (e.g. the Librarius Conclave), can they all still benefit from the first turn deployment and come in together?
>A: No, the rules for Detachments and Formations only apply to models/units that are part of the Detachment or Formation.

>(Image says "yes")

>Q: Do rules applying to ‘the unit’, such as those from Formation command benefits (e.g. the Skyhammer Annihilation Force), or unit-wide special rules such as Dunestrider from Codex: Skitarii apply to any attached Independent Characters?
>A: No.

>(Image says "yes")

>>47081252
What was changed?

>>47081686
>merely 2+ FNP is RIP

This is why the other armies hate us.

>>47081711
>Q: If I have two different Independent Character Psykers in the same unit, can both of them attempt to cast the same power in the same Psychic phase?
>A: No.

>(Image says "Yes, you can dedice the sequence")


>Q: If two Independent Characters are locked in combat, can a third Independent Character enter combat and issue a challenge, thereby engaging rules that may impact said combat? This is in regards to the Shard of Anaris becoming Instant Death, etc.
>A: Yes, unless the two Independent Characters are already fighting an ongoing challenge. If they are, the third character can make a Glorious Intervention.

>(Image says bullshit about latest published books)


>Q: Can a unit ever attack a model in a challenge?
>A: Yes, but only after all other enemy models in that combat have been slain.

>(Image says "yes, this is an exception to the normal rules, in which expansions override rulebook")


>Q: If a unit charges a single-character unit and a challenge is issued, do the non-character units still get to attack the single character?
>A: Yes.

>(Image says "no")


>Q: If a model in a challenge that isn’t Initiative 10 gets an attack at Initiative 10 (Hammer of Wrath, mandiblasters, etc.) with which it kills the opponent, what happens when it reaches its normal Initiative?
>A: It can still attack, rolling against the Weapon Skill and Toughness of the slain opponent, and allocating the excess wounds that are caused to other opponents as described in the ‘Combatant Slain’ rule.

>(Image says "they all fet a d6 roll plus their own psykers' Mastery levels")


>Q: Challenges vs outside forces. When 2 units (of more than 1 model) fight, the rule is clear, however if one of the units is a single model (e.g. a character or Monstrous Creature), it isn’t.
>A: You can only allocate Wounds to a model taking part in a challenge if there are no other enemy models you can allocate wounds to.

>(Image says "yes")

Orks have been nerfed over and over and over again

>>47081137
Still can't assault out of deep strike so it isn't that great. Just allows deep striking FMCs to only waste a single turn as opposed to having to spend the arduous and borderline efficiency ruining extra turn switching modes and waiting.

Though summoning a Dthirster is definitely a huge bonus. The possible? nerf to multiple ICs manifesting the same power might actually check Tzeentch daemons a little bit.

>>47081722

>Q: If an Independent Character with Slow and Purposeful joins a unit, does that entire unit now count as being Slow and Purposeful?
>A: Yes.

>(Image says "the mission takes precedence")


>Q: Can an Independent Character Monstrous Creature join another Independent Character to form a unit?
>A: No.

>(Image says "Yes.ticent")
