You use that emoticon way too often.

I'm sorry mom, I didn't realize I was going to have my use of emoticons critiqued today.

I use it when I'm jesting/playfully ribbing someone/not being 100% serious, to convey that I'm posting in a manner that shouldn't be taken seriously. So if I'm using it "too often" it's because I'm in a good mood.

What is the significance of the "Type" at the bottom of the mission cards? I notice that the "control objective #" cards fall into a couple of different types.

No clue yet. I don't have the book until this afternoon.

Oops, lost track of who in the thread already had the book. (should have mine today too )

Sorry if asked and answered:

Are you limited to reserving only half your units still or has that changed?

Where you been, bro? In more Space Marine lists, they never left.

I'm just welcoming my new Librarian to my Draigowing. Draigo has taken a key interest in the abilities of one Tigurius. He's ready to fight daemons now.

Only 1 difference, you cannot randomly reroll an objective you already cleared, so while blasting a unit into oblivion will only give you a VP once per game capturing objective 3 could happen 3 times in the same game with different names.

Except MC's cant G2G anymore.

Still remember the time a buddy went to ground with a dreadknight in area terrain on me.

Edit: didn't think double posts were even possible

No, there is no longer that limit.

I can't find any explanation in the book.

Although I admire your cleanse by fire method. Unbound still uses unit restrictions. I.E. 10 girl squad etc...

Oh and the mission cards are not secret unless the mission say so

And only mission n°5 use secret cards

Really? They changed that from 6th? Sad day.

Which chapter would give me the best assault punch to put in them?
Imp fists for objective holders maybe, greykights for some psychic ooompph.

The possibilities are boundless even in a battle forged list

Black Templars by the sheer number of people, White Scars because Hit & Run, Sallies to get MC on character's melee weapons.

options:
AM Priests for re-rolling Wounds or Saves
Inquisitors with Psyk-out and Rad grenades (and Scout book! Force/Daemonblades! Divination!)
Any BA/DA libby for Divination and Telepathy, or BA/SW for Div and Bio

Artillery models can no longer overwatch (were there artilleries without a blast weapon?)

Vybro weapons for Eldar

Artillery models could not snap shot in 6th

Buff to beasts, they no longer have move through cover but instead completely ignore difficult and dangerous terrain.

The Rapier Laser Destroyer. That's about all I can think of.

FMC deep striking on the board MUST enter in swooping mode.

Thanks Spoletta

Havnt seen anyone ask, but has haywire changed at all?nids are going to be relying on it a lot more now...

Don't have the rulebook in hand, but just picked up the psychic and objective cards.

Nothing earth-shattering we haven't seen before. Initial reaction is that the card stock is cheaper and more flimsy than the 6th ed psychic cards, but they're bigger and nicer looking.

Boxes are wrapped heavy hardboard and look nice. I prefer the packaging to the flimsy plastic swing case of last edition.

At this point I'm pretty sure everyone has seen the cards, but I'm happy to answer any questions

Miley would most likely play a Daemonette list and not the pure Sisters...

What about Haywire Pens? Do they count as AP:2 at least?

The missions mention "standard deployment". Is there an "alternating deployment"?

It's an exact copy & paste from 6th. No AP mentioned.

Nop. Alternative methods are "up to you"
