This is in reference to Deathshroud Terminators and Mortarian, how exactly does the sweep rule work? I've seen some people say you auto hit those in base contactc plus normal hits and people say you just get additional attacks, does anyone know exactly how this works?

That rule is no longer valid, Power Scythes now just give +1 attack if there are more than one enemy model in base contact with the model. The new rule is Reaping Blow and lowers the users Initiative by 1, but grants that additional attack.

Well that kinda sucks lol, thank you though

I would not call it exacly that. In fact it is quiet handy to strike with S5 AP2 at Initiative 3 (I.e. well before most other AP 2 on non IC.) The old rule wasn't that good, as you need to be nearly fully sourrounded to get the best of it and you were attacing at same time as Powerfist, which mostlikely ended the fight in mutual destruktion. Now with the New rule, you strike first and live to see the end of the fight.

That's a really good point actually, it's essentially an I3 power axe
