Frankly I believe it is a good idea to flood the hobby with codices and supplements.
1. Hobbyist can buy what he wants in the depth he wants.
2. It will become too expensive for people to have all...
I do not really understand this statement.
The serpent with shield still has just 3 HP. I can understand not being afraid of penetrating hits but it's all the same, even downgraded pens are glances...
Sorry beauty, the mask has to be Errataed. It is stated explicitly that the minimum is 1, so a FAQ does not really apply here. (me bad, me arrogant, me forget rule no.1:women always right!) :o
...
ok, here is one example, which is not really mine but I feel it is excellent.
cast of characters
The good ones.
-unit of Banshees (with Exarch if you have points)
-unit of Wraithblades...
I say:
Codex good rules.
Much better than anticipated by me. Kelly surprised me, massively. I have been worried after the 4th ed. letdown
Best feature:
Farseer no longer mandatory!
Synergy...
You have to remember that finecast moulds are not that expensive, even plastic ones get cheaper by the day...
Biel Tan would be the perfect spot to introduce one or two new "rare" Aspects. Which...
Sad about Illic.
However, as a solely fluff centred player I have to state that Saim Hann is another army than Altaioc etc. The same goes for Tyranid Hive fleets.
So, does it say army from codex X...
Hm, IMO not really. Or better, not necessarily.
below 2k, with one FOC + allies, there could be 2 Avatars. One from CW x and the allied from CW Y.
Depending on whether you say 2xFOC=> 2x allies;...
Fascinating. I have just read the German codex:
Holofield's second sentence:
"If the vehicle does not already have a cover save...."
And both sentences are in the same paragraph, meaning the...
Correct, however there is a second part/sentence.
If those sentences are indeed separate paragraphs or meant as a list, it would mean both facts.
Because if it is not meant to give a 6+ cover to a...
;)Hm, why would you need to ask?
SL->Lasertargeter? check.
SL hit? check.
next SL on same model? check.
=> 2xSL on warwalker: fire first normal as LasTag fire second as TL.
Need FAQ? what for?
...
Ups, if they FAQed this into turbo or into nothing, that would really be annoying.
Personally I have interpreted Jetbikes "running" as them gaining a D6" additional movement in the shooting phase....
I have done quite some thinking *yes, I know. "take cover the apocalypse is coming" HA bloody HA.*
With how the codex seems to be done, especially the stat boost, it looks like I will achieve my...
No, Banshees will not even make the counter attack unit "slot". Because Stormguardians have that one secured!
Look at my beloved stormguardians.
up to 20? check.
Flamer option? check.
Fusion...
Well, Eldar have the ability to kill or take a quad gun in first turn.
Illic and infiltrate a nice unit of nastiness... (is it still infiltration or is this called Illictration?):rolleyes:
Get...
Tyranids have problems. They have a 5th ed.codex. Eldar had a 4th ed one and are now getting a new one.
As We know Tyranids are in the pipeline, rumoured to arrive in January, it might be better to...
agreed.
And besides what do you need penetration protection for? You die to glancing this days anyway. Sure you will less likely explode but sou still have 3HP.
But the new serpent gun is funny. ...
Some things are very nice in those leaks.
Some things are disgusting to see.
And some things I really can't understand.
Eldar have always been about specialists and working together but now...
Yep, it is so typical for things in an Eldar codex. This thing is supposed to be an Air superiority fighter and has Brightlances! What the heck?
I mean aircraft are all medium armoured! (AV12 best)...
Official apology:
I have been wrong, there are 5 regular torsi, one exarch torso and 5 legs.
Although I can not see if the old exarch legs are there or if it is all normal legs....
I agree, this is the reason why most FD squads you see are small AND an Exarch is only taken for the sole purpose of manning the Aegis gun.
As you said, this is true for tournament gaming. But...
What the heck is a "Latias"? It looks a bit like an art picture of a squishy toy for a baby.
(I am old, but that old? Have I missed something?)
Guardians could very easily be the worst Troop choice there ever is in 40K, just keep the catapult at 12" and mums your uncle.
And they are part of the army box so....
Doing nothing to catapult...
my girlfriend, well her Nids and daemons, will not like this
