Seems they've fixed the issue to do with Skulltakers' M value..... thought they'd said they weren't going to do that sort of change anymore ? Still, GW changing their minds ! Go figure.

Looked for this elsewhere here, but couldn't see it, sorry if this is old or in the wrong place..... news and rumours section is for all systems right ?

Thanks for the heads up. I have a game Friday. Skulltaker with M5 helps alot! I'm glad they ended the silly debat if the Flames of Tzeentch we a 'flaming attack' or not. Too bad about the Great Banner of Sundering vs Dispel Magic and Invocation of Nehek. Oh well, I'm not suprised. Its cool the Undead can hear the Siren's Song now. Funny. -K

Sucks on the Sundering Standard, it just makes it so the Daemon player needs to take more Tzeench Heralds now.

Guess that notches VC up over Daemons, at least in my opinion.

I dunno, until the VC's can handle a Bloodthirster homing in their Vampire Lord with murder on its mind I'm not sure I can consider them a notch up.

All in all, fact is that Warhammer 40K has never been as balanced as it is now, and codex releases have never been as interesting as they are now (new units and vehicles and tons of new special rules/strategies each release -- not just the same old crap with a few changes in statlines and points costs).

My favorite part of the FAQ is actually this:

Does a Bloodthirster with both Axe of Khorne and Firestorm Blade make Strength 7 Flaming Attacks with Killing Blow Special rule?

Yes, he does. He must use all the effects of the two Gifts and cannot choose not to use one of them.


He MUST kick your utterly and completely.

Stelek- There actually are a number of unit in the game that are immune to flaming attacks, so there actually are cases where he wouldn't want to use both.

If you think you are too small to have an impact, try sleeping with a mosquito.

Because the Sundering Standard doesn't affect Invocation, the Blood Thirster will never get a bead on the Vampire Lord as he will be sitting behind another unit with no where for the BT to land and engage him.

Without being able to limit the number of Invocations the Vampires can throw out, it's going to be hard for the BT to engage a block of infantry and not be stuck there the entire time.

So basically this just means that if you want to run competitive Daemons, you're going to need a lot of horror units and/or 3 Wizards for Heralds to go with your Blood Thirster.

Since you can't turn it off, and you use all effects...what was the point of this comment?

Proving to me you didn't read what I post is not necessary.

I love it when you pretend you didn't make a mistake, Stelek. I clap my hands and bounce up and down like a schoolgirl when you get snippy in response to somebody pointing out your blunders. It's the same squalid joy I get watching the stock standard I WIN / NUH UH NO YOU DIDN'T YOU CHEATED argument twixt a couple of fat nine-year-olds with Yu-Gi-Oh cards.
