With 7th's changes you can embark allies onto battle brothers transports.

The fact you can't embark a unit other than the one who bought the DT (before and during deployment) has always stopped Allied use of Drop Pods.

If SW have Pods purchased independently in FA this is no longer a problem.

I dont have codex but have been looking around for rumors, this should be a pretty decent 1850-ish list, might be 1900-something but it probably need some tuning anyway

Not sure why you'd want the vindicators in there... You could swap them out for allied pods or just more of your own pods.

You could spend 3 turns chasing the one riptide while his army blast the TWC trying to get close.

What? When does that ever happen? If your TWC are alive, you're charging something turn 2, even if it isn't the riptide. Then you consolidate off them and rinse repeat.


Outflanking in not about getting your units into Melee, it is about forcing him to be on the defensive and making him do what YOU want him to do.

WHile I agree, I don't agree that a big TWC is the unit for that. Them being on the board takes a lot of fire off the rest of your army and gives you a turn 2 assault.

There isn't a FA section anymore, except for the summary at the end.

Did I buy the wrong book?

pretre are making these claims based on your personal experience seeing that part of the codex? Or just trying to confirm what others have said.

Just curious because if you have seen it, good enough for me!

Wait, I think you're confused. Check the back of your book. Not the profile page, but the pages you use to pay for points costs.

So far, that's the only one. I was hoping the TWC/Wolves/Logan one would have a discount.

I did. Looking at it now. No Drop Pods listed as Fast Attack. Just TWC, S/S Claws, flyer, etc.

Okay, either you're missing something or the 5 other people who have confirmed it were all lying.

That ability is gone now 2 books in a row. Though the supplement may change it, I would bet you just get another formation.

So I'm getting concerned the Specialist armies out there will just be considered "Unbound" or receive data slates/formations - and I play Ravenwing, so...

I hope your right, there are plenty of cool modelling and themes if they can be purchased empty, but I see far more abuse sadly.

Its a start. Nice to see GW taking baby steps on the path to being reasonable!

Sarcasm aside, I think this release has not been too bad price wise. The dread is more than the others but you get more for your money, the flier is fairly priced, as is Logan. No insane costs this time around.

Agree. The flyer is even cheaper than the Stormraven which is the comparable flyer. They may be stabilizing.

One can hope this is a sign for change. Really curious what direction the next book will take and how soon we see it!
