Seeing as chaos are the first codex of sixth, go for it. You just can't do it with the current edition.

Its also likely that there may be levels of FnP like in Fantesy(except its called Regen)


Standard FnP may be 5+

There may also be FnP at other values too(as specified in the specific codex)

Assassins have a 6+ FnP for example.

I could see Plague Marines keeping a 4+ FnP.

I would like to see Imperial Guardsman mounted on Motobikes. That would be mean as, an entire regiment dedicated to fast attacks.

And it's not as if you can't negate FnP either, is it?
Power weapons, Id, Dangerous terrain, special rules etc...

I'm not sure if it would make the USR for it OP, but I think it would make sense.

Units with Move Through Cover not to have their initiative reduced when assaulting, this would greatly help the Tyranids with their lack of Assault Grenades.

I think it's silly at the moment that a unit that can jump from tree to tree but can't do the same under fire. Maybe it shouldn't apply to Monstrous Creatures though as they just smash stuff out of the way and are a pretty large target.

Also maybe units with wings or jump packs etc to have Hit and Run as standard. From the wording in the current BRB, if I recall correctly, maybe I don't, it is implied that they should be able to do this anyway.

Yeah, but that's to be expected. You'd still be getting an armour save and FnP against 99% of regular attacks. We still will now, but it's a lot less reliable.

Yeah, I was going to wait for the new book, since it's apparently going to be the first to be updated. I'll be getting my Iron Warriors and Word Bearers up and running first.

I would like a weaker version of rending, I keep getting mowed down by assault cannons, or a easier vehicle assaulting, too much morale ):
