But they ARE available, in the BRB. The FAQ does not restrict you from using any of the four, it provides examples, examples for the two asked in the question.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
The FAQ TELLS you to refer to the BRB for the Types of Power Weapons, to which you look to the model and can be one of four types. Why does this not add up to anyone else?

The FAQ in question is for a codex, codex trumps BRB. Glaives are a specific type of weapon, a weapon in which they have given us specific profiles for. Those profiles are all that is available to us for Glaives.

False. The FAQ never once uses the word 'example'. It says they would have the following profiles, none of which include a lance or a maul.

I want the last word cause I'm right and I know it. If I'm wrong then just ban me now, I have OCD and cannot help myself. You are wrong and I am right, I have been told by an employee of GW and that should be good enough but for some reason for you people that's not good enough. Why don't I just effing kill myself, I don't have much to live for anyway. This game is no fun anymore. People ruin everything for everyone else.

As I said before, I've seen an email from GW explaining that Dante's axe is "unusual", and therefore is AP3 and strikes at initiative. The FAQ threw that right out the window too. You were told by GW Customer Support Employee #70010 that you could use Glaives as lances and maul. The official GW FAQ release says otherwise, which one do you honestly think is more valid?

First off:



Second... GW employees are not the end-all. Just the other day I called customer service for lolz asking about Mark of Tzeentch making d00ds Mastery Level 2. The answer I got was "Mark of Tzeentch units automatically pass psychic tests".

So no, GW employees are not enough.

Third, wtf dude. Go join the infantry. You can get paid to feel that way.
