I honestly only looked forward to seeing Tau, so I could start using my Hunter contingent again. Now I honestly don't care.
As far as the piranhas go, I know the BRB FAQ stated that you can not enter then leave in the same turn, however the FAQ for Tau specifically seems to state that the opposite is true for that formation only. Many formations have rules that over ride BRB rules. Its called a formation bonus, and its why people use formations. Im pretty sure the EVERY TURN is pretty clear, and not ambiguous at all. Its how I will play it until someone can point me to something that refutes this.

It can leave on any turn, including the first, but the restriction on leaving the same turn you arrive is not mentioned or refuted and therefore is still in effect. Unless it is specifically countermanded, it doesn't just suddenly disappear. You leave the board in the same manner as any other unit that can leave the board, such as Flyers or FMCs, and they can't fly on and off.

Patiently waiting for Guard. But I don't know of any glaring errors/questions in the codex.

I would be in 100% agreement with you if it said any turn and not every turn. However I am sure this is not a rules arguing thread, and there is no need to argue really. I think its just somehow a different interpretation of what the word every means. I interpret it to mean every single turn 1-7.
I am thinking when its official it will get cleared up though.

Exactly.
Although I'm on a mobile device (Nook HD+), I am making periodic checks to their Facebook page.
Also, I printed out the Rules FAQ and Space Marine FAQ yesterday.

Seriously. I'm freaking out, man.
I keep checking facebook every five minutes and my throat is so itchy! "Y'all got any more of them FAQ's?"
And it's only going to be one faction, and like 5 questions. So much anticipation for a huge letdown for something I don't even play.

Added a choppa to the tankbusta boss nob in an errata, and kustom force fields affect friends and enemies.
I don't play orks and didn't know that if they fight amongst themselves they do S4 hits to each other, while being S3 normally. That's a very silly thing.

So... orks cybork body with a painboy is indeed useless, orks are intended to make S4 hits when rolling a 4-6 on the mob rule chart despite being S3, and the 'naughts aren't super heavies.

Whelp, I guess the only nice thing was they at least gave the choppa to the Tankbusta Nob in order to allow him to get melee upgrades. And letting us technically keep the green tide and Waaagh! Ghazghkull detachment... Disappointing they didn't bother to address the uselessness of CB nor giving a better result to having results of higher than a 6 for Mob Rule, but not surprising.
