    Yea, Webway portal still bad looks like. They renerfed, unnerfed some things, kinda funny. Lash whips and banshee masks are now a roll off haha!

    So Hydras. If i understand it right, they are murder to fliers(makes sense) but can only fire snap fire at ground units? That's awesome!

    Yep. So far it seems that Dark Eldar got nerfed the most; web way cannot be charged out of and Craftworld Eldar cannot come out of it either lame. A farseer is only mastery level one, even with spirit stones so only Eldrad can cast those Mastery level 2 powers.

    However I am happy to say that Telion got better! Camo Cloaks just give +1 cover save (instead of stealth) but Telion now has Stealth and a Camo Cloak. So he gets +2 cover save and his unit gets +1 from his stealth but can still buy a Camo cloak to combine for +2 save lol. Not sure if it is worth yet it but interesting none the less.

    Kingsley, the FAQ states that Eldrad is Mastery Level 3, including the bonus from spirit stones.

    Sammael in the Land Speeder is, currently, unplayable. Neither the BRB nor the DA FAQ gave him hull points. That just makes it seem sloppy, to be honest.

    sorry I meant to say, "a farseer is only mastery level one, even with spirit stones. Therefore Eldard (mastery level 3) is the only Eldar that can cast Mastery level 2 powers.

    I just figured that Spirit Stones would make them level 2 just like Epistolary makes Librarians level 2.

    The Eldar FAQ says nothing about Spirit Stones outside of Eldrad's entry. The Farseer FAQ you're looking at just says "What Mastery Level is a Farseer? Mastery Level 1." Honestly, I think at this point, where the codex has no ruling, you default to the BRB. Spirit Stones lets you cast 2 powers a turn, therefore he's Mastery 2.

    On an unrelated note, I never noticed this until the FAQs, but the entry in the BRB on bikes says they just get straight +1 Toughness, and every single FAQ says to use the bracketed value for everything. Bikers just got insane at natural T5, and Nurgle Bikers just got terrifying.

    Yeah, seems like everything got the Thunderwolf Mount boost.

    Blacksun filters are the hotness. Especially since they are on characters, generally. Sniping at night is delicious.
