So apparently they have changed the GK FNP in the digital codex.

Wonder if its a mistake in the Ebook. Seems strange them to have a 4+ invun and a 4+FNP.

Gotta be a mistake. Unless they're going to pull an amazing FAQ on us

Wasn't it a 6+ FNP before? seems like an excessive buff if its not a typo, especially with the basic FNP roll being nerfed in 6th.

Yes.

I'm wondering whether it's an issue of copy-paste from another FNP rule. Did it use to state 6+ FNP in the digital codex before or was it 4+ all the time?

Interesting. So i have to buy a tablet now to get +2 on fnp?

On a serious note. Most likely a typo. GW doesnt normally rebalance units outside of a new codex. I wouldnt play it that way until they include this change into the faq too. And i am playing GK. Not that Assassins are op in 6th (not even close) but such a buff would come out of nowhere and also wasnt (and isnt) necessary.

That would be nice. Presuming it shows the same 4+ save for each assassin, hopefully there is a FAQ update for us non-digital-dex types. (though i'd have to agree, at the moment it appears more like a typo in the e-dex than an update)

I would just like to point out that I have spent a lot of time on th internet and can safely say that pic is photshopped.

In all seriousness though, the iDexs usually update before the FAQs go up.

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 not sure photoshopping it would protect it from non-redistribution copyright prevention.

Hence why I was asking if it had always read as 4+ or if it was 6+ before and CHANGED to 4+.

I don't believe there has been a GK codex with a 4+ FnP synskin save, even as a typo.

To be fair GW seems to be shifting this stance a bit if the Dark Angels codex is any indication. To be fair though such a change would kind of come out of nowhere. Wait for the faq I say, if there is one.

I think once they realize they could revitalize sales by Errataing stuff and not having to put out a new book they will start doing it more and more.

Update a Codex via Errata and you can create new sales by spending nothing.

So true, after thinking about it. Just keep shifting the meta back and forth between different unplayed units and watch gamers buy those models respectively... Oh wait, where have I heard this before, Codex: Chaos Daemons?

Yea PC games have been getting by on patching for ages now, i guess it's time GW noticed there's cash to be made there.

I dont know if i really want gw rebalance stuff on a regular basis.

People in my gaming group just arent up to date. When i think about how much time it took to get the LoS changes into their heads . And still after months of being errata'd i play people and they tend to play them wrong.

Fantasy would be a lot better off if they rebalanced some of the nukes though. There's nothing as glaringly bad in 40k right now fortunately.

It's the interactive digital Codoex.
The BMS are links to other parts in the Codex.
B - Bestiary
M - Miniature Showcase

...it was a joke. Specifically about how almost every photograph of something, there is always that one guy who claims that it is shopped.
