I played a Custodes player last night that said Arie shrike special rule was -1 to hit for ever weapon firing at him, I use Battlescribe which only shows this rule affecting barrage weapons. I know Battlescribe is wrong sometimes can someone clarify this rule for me?

If you mean the arae-shrike wargear, it works only against barrage weapons when they target the unit with this wargear. The targeting interference gives the additional d6 to scatter and to highest results must be picked if it actually scatters, hit is, of course, a hit.

He's confusing Arae-Shrikes (Barrage weapons roll an additional d6 and pick the highest two when firing at the unit) with the Praesidium shields (-1 to hit the unit in melee).

Balanced Game: Noun. A game in which all options and choices are worth using.

Yes, I sent him a text asking him if he was meaning targeting interference, in which case it only affected barrage weapons. His reply was Battlescribe was not updated correctly. He was not confusing it with the Shields though, he had me also roll -1 to hit all his units Shields or no Shields in close combat.

Arae-shrike speaks only about barrage weapons. Page 243 of Inferno.
