FAQs eh?
All right, let’s knuckle down and do this.
What one (just one, there’s rather a lot of you guys…) rules question do you want answered or clarified? Jot it down in the comments and we’ll take them to the Game Designers on your behalf. We’ll even return with answers, we promise. It might take a week or two but a collated list of freshly approved FAQs will be yours post haste
These oppurtunities are somewhat scarce, lets hope good things come from it.

Anyone wondering, some of the questions that have been posted:
Does PE grant re-rolls on scatters?
Do Witchfire without profiles (specifically Psychic Scram) roll To Hit?
Do Gargantuan Creatures fire 2 weapons or as many as they have?
Replace 1 weapon with 1 Relic - Limit or Ratio?
Do formation bonuses that target the unit confer to attached ICs?
Does Chaos Psychic Focus and Psychic Focus stack?
Ravenwing with Flyer - can Flyer start in Reserve and rest deploy normally?
There have been a number of repeat questions, so you might want to look through to see if your question was asked.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

I'm impressed, over half the posts so far are questions not nonsense
(although a fair few of them are from people who can't count)
I really hope GW does manage get some FAQs up from them (and as FAQs rather than answers on facebook which the grumpy brigade will probably not consider official)

We need (I want) someone to ask about dual weapon profiles (melee and ranged), and how the Obelisk interacts with FMC's.

There're a couple of questions regarding weapon profiles with one of them being Necron specific so maybe you'll get your wish and have an answer.
Also, should this or the other thread be closed since they're the same thing?

These are all pretty good questions, honestly. I know where I stand on all these but getting official answers is preferred.
If I have to choose JUST ONE, I'd go with the formation bonuses to attached IC's thing, just because I see that one getting majorly abused if people believe that the IC does in fact gain the squad bonus.

While I'm on the other side of the argument I just have to agree - it affects so much stuff by now. I'll be happy whichever way they rule it.

Ghaz, if I may make a request - since your question was already asked, would you mind changing it to something about non-slot units and formations, such as dedicated transports, or Primaris Psykers?

Dang, someone already asked the RW question. I had went up the thread quite a bit and could not find it. Maybe I should ask if Pedro Kantor's Dorn's Arrow is a Storm Bolter for the purposes of Bolter Drill instead.

How ITC responds will be interesting. They've already ignored some official GW FAQs (see VSG rulings...). I doubt they will actually up date their document though.

Nothing to do with the internet, people will always use opportunities like that to vent their anger / ask questions that matter to them even though they perfectly know that they won't get a response or that they're simply adressing the completely wrong person.
GW will sort it out - they'll just throw away anything that's unrelated / not fitting and hopefully take ALL the actual rules question and answer them. Throwing out another "where are my plastic sisters?" isn't really that much work compared to actually answering the others and removing duplicate questions (there're a ton of those for the most discussed questions).

Is there a way to search in this facebook post to see if your question has been asked already ( perhaps a 3th party script) ?
It might be a good idea to upvote good questions, and be able to check before posting new ones.
