Not even an IG FAQ. I got all excited...
Two biggest things I have seen are the max range on wounds (maybe a lascannon in the vet squad isnt such a bad idea now) and Force Weapons now bypass FNP.
Also, I think GK lost access to Telepathy which is... odd...

Not really. You've got the chimera multilaser turret. Since that and the embarked unit shoot at the same time wouldn't that work for extending their "kill range" anyways?

The limitation is "any." So if one model has range to a target model, the target can be allocated to, period. It's essentially identical to the LoS restriction - if one model can see you, any model in the shooting unit can kill you. Now, if one model has range to you, any model in the shooting unit can kill you.
So why do people say multi flamer units are crap then?
If i have 4 flamers and one bolter then those flamers can kill up to bolter range targets in the enemy squad they shoot at.
Or?

Oh dont worry it'll suck as bad as the others and then they'll only print it in white dwarf and when that isnt available they wont bother posting it on their website and sue button anyone that does post them for free

Rick Priestley said it best:
Bryan always said that if the studio ever had to mix with the manufacturing and sales part of the business it would destroy the studio. And I have to say – he wasn’t wrong there! The modern studio isn’t a studio in the same way; it isn’t a collection of artists and creatives sharing ideas and driving each other on. It’s become the promotions department of a toy company – things move on!

Hellooooooo casting blessing when coming in from reserves!
As far as I understand, and from Yak's answer in the thread in YMDC, your Reserve Rolls are not the same thing as moving on from reserve. Reserve rolls, Outflank rolls and blessings happen all at the same time. Then, after that, reserve moves happen.

Considering the Tau, which are explicitly the "don't bother with siege units because their fliers are so fricking awesome" race are rumored to be getting a flyer that makes the Nephilim look almost useful in comparison, I wouldn't hold your breath.
Hell, they updated the Tau faq just to reiterate that the vehicle that was deliberately designed as an anti-flyer unit by Forgeworld is even worse at shooting down fliers than a half-squad of Firecaste Warriors.

Please no QQ from Tau or Eldar until after GW screws you with a crappy flyer. Failure to abide by that rule will result in merciless ridicule if GW doesn't screw you and the new flyers turn out to be good.
My hope is the new Tau flyer has a marker light like effect that gives another unit skyfire.

Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail, and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, but refuse. They cling to the realm, or love, or the gods…illusions. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is, but they’ll never know this. Not until it’s too late.

Hi,
Anyone thinks that the "new" wound rule can be an error?
It's not the first time GW made an error in FAQs, like Eldar Shadowseer.
In fact if you change range with LoS the QA is correct.

Or if our new flier is the storm talon with an eldar pilot.

I'm happy for all those Emperor's Children players that were pissed their 6 man squads w/blastmaster were illegal in the new codex.
A 5 man squad with a blastmaster may very well be the best troop choice in the chaos codex now. A pretty crazy change for a FAQ
Also, Heldrakes really hate the world. Awesome.

I now know what I want to see released more than anything. A Tau flyer with crappy S6 missiles and 2 non twin linked rail cannons that shoot at BS3 and have a 100% chance of causing the tau player to engage in wailing and gnashing of teeth when they both miss.

Well, we don't have rail cannons, but we do have rail rifles and rail guns. There's a big difference between the two. Depending on which it is, maybe I'll be impressed, maybe not. Though even two rail rifles would be nice, if the price isn't horrific.

Yeah yesterday, while a friend whas playing against a SW, i explained him about this part of the faq, he looked at me, looked at his heldrake, looked at me again, and i saw the malice and evilness in his eyes, because he just had Vectorstriked a Rhino open, and whil he though that he would have to fire the Balflamer elsewhere, when i told him, he just took a split second to decide his target...
