That I must have missed. Which page--and does that mean they do not get +1 cover? I see where it says they take pinning tests as normal, and some places that state the rolls should be taken, but I am totally missing where it defines pinned. Editing to add: I totally missed the letters " FAQ" in that post.  Carry on. There is nothing to see here.

bigdun, I finally see why you're hung up on the word pinned. Didn't know that the BT codex prohibited BT units that are 'pinned' from taking a test for Zeal. Gotcha. Given that, your arguments now actually make sense. If one accepts that 'pinned' exists as a separtate state from GtG. Which I would disagree with, given this FAQ:
Q: If I find a reference to a unit that is ‘pinned’, does it
mean a unit that has gone to ground? (p24)
A: Yes, ‘pinned’ is simply a short way of saying ‘gone to
ground by failing a pinning test’.
I read that as there is no state of being 'pinned', there is only GtG involuntarily due to a failed pinning test.

The Faq does define it.
"A Pinned unit is simply a unit that has failed it's pinning test and has gone to ground"
That would be the state of a "pinned unit".
Pinning does not need to be defined in the FAQ, you are correct on that.

This is my Rulebook. There are many Like it, but this one is mine. Without me, my rulebook is useless. Without my rulebook, I am useless.
Stop looking for buzz words and start reading the whole sentences.

?? Is there another FAQ on this, cause the one I quoted above doesn't quite say what you said. Or were you paraphrasing, thereby getting a different meaning out of the statement?

I did just about the same thing at the top of this page, don_mondo.
