Its not an assumption, Insaniak: As I repeatedly post, and you repeatedly ignore, the RULES for NFW state each type grants you an additional bonus.

Its not an assumption when the rules tell you it is an ADDITIONAL bonus.

So no, no assumptions at all.

Blatant rule change, disguised as FAQ.

Yes, I keep 'ignoring' it because it's not what the rules actually say at all, and because I disagree with your interpretation of just what it means. I thought we already covered that.

Once again, this is a non-issue. It quite simply doesn't matter if it's a rules change, or a clarification of some sloppy writing. It doesn't matter if your interpretation is the only possible one, handed down from the mountain on stone tablets or if there are multiple ways of reading the rule in question. It doesn't matter if people on the other side of the planet disagree with your take on the rules, or disagree that your interpretation is the only possible one to make.

GW have made a ruling, so now we know how they think it should be played. But by all means continue to be horrified that others can hold to an opinion based on reasoning with which you disagree if it helps you sleep at night.

Aren't we done with this?

This isn't a question of who was "wrong" and who was "right" (as there is no such thing when it comes to GWs FAQs).

Isn't this a simple matter of accepting that this is the ruling ("right" or "wrong") and simply moving on from there?

One would hope so...

Oh, you poor, naive poster...

If only it were EVER that simple.

HAHAHAHAHAHA! Lash whips work against halberds! VICTORY FOR THE NIDS!

I'm glad for some of the clarifications, namely the Henchmen one and Falchions. However given how they ruled the Scoring Dreadnought, I guess I have a few apologies to make.

The consistency of the ruling is hilarious.

So.

Lash whips all around!

But don't work against rough rider spears

... wat?

One is a modifier, the other is a set value. Bearing in mind furioius charge doesnt help rough riders either.
