7th Edition Errata and FAQ are up

[DarkLink]

Their one single purpose is to get people to give GW a bit more money. And it's not like this is GW's first typo in a premium-priced product.

[MajorWesJanson]

Is it just me or do FAQed psychic power cards defeat the one single purpose these cards have?

I applied the FAQ for the Banishment psychic card with a sharpie. Done.

I'm going to try to find/make a tiny sticker, so I can pull it off if they change it again later.

[Defenestratus]

I didn't say that it made sense. I just said that you still need the balestar to get div. The brb chart is basically irrelevant. Just look at the unit entry to see what you can get.

I agree with Darklink.

If it was the other way around, my Warlocks could take divination "because the BRB says so"

[ElectricPaladin]

I agree with Darklink.

This is the same logic I was using to argue that maybe not everyone in the Daemon codex would get Daemonology. It turned out that my guess was wrong, but the logic is still sound.

[DarkLink]

Now it's more relevant since the faqs have updated everyone's powers. Really, for a short time it was reasonable to argue everyone got divination.

It appears that that card wasn't about every psyker in an army gaining access to all those disciplines, but noting which armies already have access to those disciplines, even if it's limited to a single model. So Space Marines had a check under Divination not because all Librarians gained Divination, but because Tigurius has access to it. Likewise, Crimson Slaughter have access to it, therefore Chaos Space Marines got a check mark placed under that. A little bit more clarity upfront would've been nice, but at least they release these FAQ's fairly promptly.

That logic is false, by that logic Chaos should have access to all discipline since we have relics and characters that generate powers from all disciplines.

GW doesnt acknowledge that some of the rules they write are useless therefore they would see no distinction between the balestar and the scrolls

Or they're distinguishing between a wargear item which provides a totally random selection? That's hardly the same thing as having the option to pick a specific discipline which you want. And is there a character which has access to the the Telekinesis discipline? Because I'm not aware of one, and that happens to be the one discipline which is checked off on the Quick Reference Chart card that came with the deck.

It strikes me as pretty hypocritical that you don't see the pretty hefty distinction between the two.

[Lord Asterion]

The codex and FAQ specifically state what powers a pskyer can take, the rule book says they can only take powers the unit is specified as being able to take, there is literally no argument here.
