It's sold as an epub file.

They make free software for that, too, Sigil being one of the more popular open source editors.

Speaking of which, what're its stats?

Also, has anyone happened to see the point cost for the hades drill? I have one for a regular Guard army, was looking at how it might fit...

65 points. The drill looks quite nice for its cost.

Thanks, both of you.

The drill looks pretty solid for that cost-- unreliable, but tough and strong. And cool, about what I expected on the lascutter, though I'm a bit surprised it didn't have the inaccurate rule or buff vs. buildings. I guess it seems like most weapons only have one special rule now.

Quick question - what's the highest number of wounds on any model in the game? I assume this would be the Warlord, right?

So far, at least. All bets are off if Forge World ever get around to the Ordinatus Majoris though….

Manta has 60 wounds.

Also, the only model I know of with 4 levels of degradation.

How much a warlord has?

Warlord and Reaver both have 5 levels. I'd have to double check, but I believe the Warhound has 4.

Important to note that one of its levels is for when it has more than its starting wounds…

So the wording on the Corsairs moral rule is weird,

You roll two dice, discarding the lowest, BUT whenever they fail a morale test they lose an additional model.

Wouldn't a "but" indicate something counteracting the original penalty?

I think it is supposed to be "discard the highest". That would make sense.

Almost certainly typo, though at least it's optional.

And not the only one, I've noticed the Scorpions Pulsar says 3 damage but it's special rule indicates it should do D6 (as it does 2D6 on 6's to wound).

I emailed off a complaint today, the quality of the AM and Xenos books is shocking. Anyone who ordered physical copies should demand a refund.
