I think they changed them back. The direct links still work though:

http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m2570047a_Necrons_v1.1.pdf

Only 3 I had open before I stupidly hit refresh on my page.

On a positive note, I hope they are not done updating them yet. They cover some of the big items but I was expecting more.

Wow, didn't expect them to pull them. I wonder why they did it. The Rulebook one was actually really good. I didn't get the chance on the rest...

Does anyone happen to have the URLs to each individual FAQ doc still in their history?

Because I'm guessing it will still work and if so you should paste them here.

Unlikely. I can't access any dropbox type places from work and I doubt Lego wants me attaching them.

All of these changes via FAQ will make gaming with the regular gamer/pickup gamer at the LGS a nightmare.

I wasn't too happy with a lot of 40K 6th to begin with, and they seem to really be amping up the Change For Change's Sake quotient with a lot of this...

Surprised on the doom scythe death ray. Did not see that one coming

Also they nerfed LOS as it is now the closest to the person taking the test, not anyone within 6

The argument about having skyfire and so being able to fire the death ray at flyers looks set to continue, although more one sided.

Edit: relic bllades have their own profile now.

@Alph

I'm not seeing the issue. The FAQ's are actually pretty solid and are clearing up 90% of the issues that were being bounced around right after the rulebook release. And it's no different than 5th edition which also had a ton of FAQ's. So I'm curious as to why you think this is a nightmare?

Strange, I actually thought this was one of the best FAQ rounds GW have ever done - almost everything I have read makes sense and makes the game seem more "real" and logical. No more shifting wounds around on nobz like crazy, and no more hitting flyers with your skimmer.

But it is weird that the update is dated almost 1½ month old - anyone care to guess at why?

Saddened on behalf of all the Ultramarines, Salamanders and White Scars players who got their Codex rolled into Codex: Black Templars.

Yes, i read it and thought straight back to one of the arguments about having skyfire ment you weren't snap firing. This is also the reason I said it would be more one sided.

Alph, this is the same as it has been since 3rd edition with FAQs. I don't mean to be mean, but you have just been down on 6th the entire time. It really isn't the end of 40k.
