I'm fine with rolling for it. If it keeps popping up, I just roll again. You're right though, really fething bad FAQ's....

Some people play to win, some people play for fun. Me? I play to kill toy soldiers.

I completely agree that many of the rules problems are people seeking advantage where none is to be had.

That said, I have two big problems with GW's rules: Firstly, that they very rarely define terms properly and sometimes use them ambiguously. Secondly, that they mix rules, explanation and fluff with no clear distinction.

Actually, they are 99% pretty good at separating "fluff" in one paragraph, with the rules worthy part in the last paragraphs under a rule. The stuff preceding it is usually to give you context, reason, and intent in an entertaining way to read. Though it can be confusing.

Just because anyone agrees with anyone, doesn't mean they are correct. Beware the thin line between what is "Correct" and what is "Popular."

That's what my group has done. We found very little we disagreed with and add to it when needed by hosting a poll on our community site.
