So recently received a shadow sword from friends but also noticed that there has not been any updated rules yet for super heavies, or that I know of? Is there a place I could find 6th edition rules for a shadow sword? I also ask because I notice that its main weapon is ordnance so it would seem almost a useless vehicle if you had to snap shot all other weapons.

Ahhh thank you I was wondering how the hull points worked and figured they were going to have 3hp per structure point. But am still disappointed that iirc the baneblade and shadowsword have ordnance for their weapons rule aside from primary weapon and makes them snap fire all other weapons.

Dang you are right. That is pretty lame.

You can pretty much throw out all rules from the official GW apoc book (save perhaps the datasheets themselves) and all you need for apoc in 6th edition is that 3 page forgeworld update.

We play apoc a fair amount in our group and we found we were mixing and matching old rules with new accidently which was not conductive to fun play. Just use the FW update only and you should be golden.

THe apoc book is ancient now. The FW update is good though.

Yea the rules are nice and Im glad to see forge world has updated them a bit. I had heard rumors from a friend(he usually finds out stuff for me before it comes out) that gw might do a reboot of apoc sometime in the summer.

But the most i was looking for in this forum was if the shadow sword had the ordnance rule and iirc it does. Just like the LRBT was nerfed a bit with the rule I will find the shadow sword also nerfed.
