I guess the Tyranid Titan doesn't get an Inv save vs D weapons bc D allows no save of any kind but what about feel no pain which isn't a save does it get those vs D?

You get no attempt to negate wounds from destroyer weapons, this includes, FNP, RP and Everliving.

Except Eldar Titan Holofields if I recall correctly

No ways around a D-weapon hit, unless the special rule specifically allows you to.

There's some debate on Ever-living.

My complaint is ever-living is basically just a rule stating characters always get their RP even if their unit is dead.

But apparently, according to the necron players, it's a completely separate rule that has nothing to do with RP, and since everliving isn't mentioned by D weapons it's still allowed technically.

No its not. Ever living is a special role and its own rule, but its a special role like reanimation protocols. D weapons do not allow special roles like reanimation protocalls

ah

Glad to hear it then.

Doesn't D weapon specially also call out EL?


Il check when i get access to my book.

Ever-Living: If a model with this special rule is removed as a casualty, do not add a Reanimation Protocols counter to its unit. Instead place an Ever-Living counter where the model was removed from play. At the end of the phase, roll for this counter, just as you would for a Reanimation Protocols counter.

Sorry Necrons, no ever-living from D weapons.

Also, fun fact. If you assault a gargantuan creature's get FNP against weapons that cause ID (such as swarmlord, force, etc). It's because it says "Any attack that normally inflicts instant death or says the target model is removed from play inflicts d3 wounds on a GC or FGC instead". The instead means it no longer is ID, and you can take FNP against it.

That's kind of mean.

What's mean is a Librarian being able to kill a Hierophant by stabbing it in the foot a few times with a fancy tooth pick.

That would have to be a really strong libby. Need to be str6 to even start to hurt the Heirophant. Things' a beast. Why must it cost so much? xD

Force staff, or an axe+Iron Arm(or a sword if you roll greater than +1), or Firey Form.

Not saying it can't be done, but it needs to be a libby with an axe for the AP2. There is no guarantee the libby is still around at the i1 step. Those things are also nice until you realize you're very likely inside SITW range if you're in melee with a heirophant xD.
