I don't know. Just be aware we are not allowed to ask questions in the News and Rumors forum. So this will most likely get locked.

Agies Grimm:The "Learn to play, bro" mentality is mostly just a way for someone to try to shame you by implying that their metaphorical nerd-wiener is bigger than yours. Which, ironically, I think nerds do even more vehemently than jocks.

Everything is made up and the points don't matter. 40K or Who's Line is it Anyway?

Trust me, no matter what damage they have the potential to do, single-shot weapons always flatter to deceive in 40k.                                                                                                       Rule #1

I'll give you a clue.

It isn't the beginning of the month.

Question is, is the beginning of the month before the month or during the month?

They didn't specify a date. With Tau coming on the 17th, the "2 week" errata period will be the 31st March, which I could see them releasing the system wide FAQ at the same time - at least that's what my money is on.

I dunno, if they did it and released the Tau FAQ a week later people would scream it was a dick move on GW's part too

Might come out before the Tau Dex. That would make sense given timing and all.
End of the month with the Tau Erratta leaves no time for editing, printing, and shipping.

Shipping what? FAQ won't likely be book so that's just upload. And Tau codex itself was printed months ago so whatever FAQ has won't be in the codex anyway.

GW should think about a booklet made out of the FAQs for about 20€.
Then we would have a clear announcement ahead in time.

Lucky us even GW has managed to restrain from doing that. Especially as it would add couple months more to getting the FAQ.

But then GW would consider the FAQ/Errata to be more serious.

I really hope this FAQ comes soon. I put myself on a purchase/paint freeze until it does. Last time I got really burned, I think everything that I bought modeled and painted got nerfed to being completely unusable ( Giant Spawn, Relic Falchion did not deserve it! )

I think GW should build a more polished and advanced version of battlescribe and charge a low subscription fee and keep it updated. I thought we were done with needing three hundred pages of FAQs and 5 books to play one army when we moved out of 7th...

They already have that in chapter approved but i was surprised they didn't put like nice codified versions of the all FAQs in there only new point changes. But than again if they did that, they might not do any FAQs online anymore because they can't charge us for it. I guess than I am ok with chapter approved not having any FAQs

Nah all matched players would be required to buy it so no need. Any cheap crap is good enough as long as it has point changes
