    FAQ updates!

    http://www.belloflostsouls.net/2015/...k-fantasy.html

    Finally, immobilized skimmers lose the ability to jink. All is right with the world.

    Yeah just saw that. Good change. Now I am just waiting on FMC and cover to be FAQ'd and I will be happy.

    They also REALLY nerfed Multi-Assaults by cleaning up the rules for it. It is going to be MUCH harder to multi-assault anything more then a few inches apart.


    I'm really disappointed they nerfed DE HQs though... it isn't even an FAQ for the shadowfield just a straight up nerf. RAW it is quite clear that FNP counts as if you successfully made the original save and the shadowfield doesn't break. I just don't understand GW sometimes. They just nerfed the weakest HQs in the game further for no real reason.

    They basically made green tide super duper kitable. I'm ok with that. The walker facing is awesome and necessary change. I also wish vehicles were assaulted based on facing as well.

    I am honestly not looking forward to explaining to people why they can't do their multi-assault now... It is one of those rules changes that won't come up much, but when it does it is completely game changing and people are going to get very upset that their plans to win are ruined due to an obscure rule clarification that most people will never see.

    I'm not sure correcting most people is worth the bad sportman vote that is sure to follow. Most people will view it as rules lawyering your way to victory and with chipmunk you for it.

    I hope vehicle remain rear armor in assault personally. It is one of the few good ways to kill super durable/cheap vheicles like Wave Serpents and Ghost Arks. It is one of the few things that make melee viable.

    You're talking about the errata on pg 46 or was there another? That seems to make it work like I thought it would.

    Yeah, it's the way most people think it works. It's gonna be largely a non-issue. The errata is only necessary now that formations have greatly increased unit size.

    Yes. This is for pile ins, specifically intended to address the way large units move while in the pile in (e.g. green tide). The initial charge can still be set up properly.
