Could you run that by me again?

Anyway, what he said...

Sigh...

I am a project manager. I have a spouse who has worked in publishing. I.e. I have both project management experience and fairly in depth knowledge of what it takes to create a publication. I didn't think that sentence was impossible to decode.

In his defense, that could have also been read as "I am a project manager, I have a spouse, and I worked in publishing" (though the second item in that list would seem like extraneous information). It falls under the same category as the newspaper headlines you see sometimes such as "Man hit by train in hospital".

Thanks, but I read it correctly. I just thought that he didn't need to provide that information, what he wrote made sense without mentioning his role or spouse. Now you probably will read more to my response than what I actually mean with it. I respect Kriswall's opinions and experience even though sometimes we are at odds.

In summary, it was a lame attempt to lighten up the thread in agreement with what he said, because, as you pointed out, it may have been interpreted incorrectly.

Have they cut off questions now and are going through the process of addressing FAQ's?

Warhammer 40,000 Facebook Page wrote:Hey guys,
We wanted to say a big thank you to all of you who took the time to send in your questions for the next round of FAQs.
There were a lot of them (over 2,000!), so bear with us — we'll get the answers back to you as quickly as we can.

If you didn't get a chance to ask your question, there are good odds someone already did, so don't worry too much. While you're waiting, feel free to resolve any rules disputes in the time-honoured tradition of Rock, Paper, Chainsword.

Yes.

Was/is there going to be a list of what was requested? And has there been any sort of rough guess time time for publication?

On page 3 of this thread you'll find a file RFHolloway created of the first 1950 comments. The Facebook post said there were over 2000 they had to sift through, so that should at least be most of them. You'll have to sift through a lot of complaining and garbage to accurately list all the legitimate questions though.

As for a timeline, if you look at the quote in the OP of this thread, it states "a week or two" for responses. Given the large volume of questions they received I highly doubt they'll be able to address all of them within 2 weeks, but perhaps they'll post a "first wave" if we're lucky? Optimistic thinking I suppose.

There hasn't been any further communication about the subject from the WH40k Facebook page since the post thanking everyone for their questions.

Not sure if you guys saw this tidbit.. of course taken with a grain of salt..

In the BoLs article that just went out about the Age of Sigmar FAQs, they mention 40k FAQs coming next week! Wow!

Yeah, no.

This is what the AOS page said:

Hey everyone,
Our rules guys have been hard at work sorting and answering the questions you all sent in for our FAQ thread a few weeks back.
They’ve just finished their first draft, and before we enshrined them as official, we wanted to get your thoughts on them.
Do the answers all make sense? Are they clear?

(We’re looking for whether you understand them rather than if you like the answer.)

We’ll leave these up over the weekend so you can try them out in your games, and then on Monday, we’ll pass on your comments to the rules guys for the final FAQs.

Oh, and if you’re waiting on the Warhammer 40,000 FAQ’s, we’re hopefully going to be doing the same in the next week or so.

Ok? That sounds plenty good to me! I don't know how you feel about it

Point is, progress is being made, and they are looking for immediate feedback before a final draft is issued. All good things in my book.

Here's a question regarding the new "Crimson Slaughter" supplement.

The original supplement said that no units other than Khorne Berzerkers, Plague Marines and Noise Marines could take Veternas of the Long War. The new one states that ONLY Khorne Berzerkers, Plague Marines and Noise Marines can HAVE VoTLW, which would disallow named characters, Rubric Marines, and Daemon Princes. Was this intentional? The Daemonheart relic still states it can't be taken by Daemon Princes, which would only be possible if they could be taken in the first place, making it ambiguous as the the original intent.

Look at the Tau relic (earth caste array).. it specifically states that it allows for reroll riptide nova charges... yet riptide are no longer allowed to take it anymore.

It seems like a bad cut and paste job there to me.

Isn't there that one special character Riptide that comes with it?

There is, however the only way to bring him, is with a 1500 point formation of "the eight".

Which is really not unusual for GW.

Definitely not. And I don't want to tangent this thread and make it seem like I am complaining. It really doesn't matter to me, i rarely field riptides now with ghostkeel. And if I do, its in the riptide wing, which gets nova rerolls anyway. lol

Did anybody ask about the Dark Angels Formations?
Specially Flyers + Ravenwing and Landraiders + Deathwing?
