'Stop talking about the bad thing and drink the CoolAid' is exactly how we came to be in the situation(s) we're in now with units/armies getting screwed, balance being terrible, and books being filled with typos (etc.).

That is an unfair response; ninja recognized that it sucks, agreed with the legitimacy of the complaint, and made an honest request for the discussion to move on from one specific topic. There was no request to avoid discussing flaws, or sentiment that flaws don't exist. Largely the opposite of what you are portraying it as. Treating a polite post with such hostility not only undermines your own legitimacy but makes it seem like those with legitimate complaints on the matter are simply black knights.

So, I have access to the Codex if anyone has any lingering questions they haven't already gotten answered.

Did the Daemon Engines get CORE?

How many custom crusade plague options are there?

No. Plague Marines, Possessed, Blightlord Terminators, Deathshroud Terminators and Helbrutes have it.

no and they didn’t get the inexorable advance rule due to the bubonic astartes key word. I hate when they do things like this. It just make it so many things get confused. I mean how many people are going to get that wrong in games or even notice that everything in the army except demon engines, poxwalkers, and cultists get it?

I am really hoping the FAQ fixes it so you can have a “Lord” and a Demon Prince. I am frustrated feeling I must take the caster when I don’t like the model at all.

Correct.

If you could post the last page of stratgems it would be helpful. Only 3/4 pages were posted. Also, a Deathshroud, Lord of Contagian, psychic powers pages would be very very helpful.

Are any of the Demon princes weapons plague weapons? I really wish I knew the key word requirements for the psychic powers.

What are the subfaction abilities and warlord traits?

Huh, looks like I'm missing those sheets. Sorry man. I have every datasheet and all the rules except Crusade rules.

Do Possessed really only have 2 wounds?

Huh. So I guess the Lord of Virtulence really only has use with Deathshroud then. Thanks for the information, and thanks GW for creating a unit whose fluff makes mention of Daemon Engines and then do nothing with them.

Master of Destruction also synchs up with the Virulent Rounds stratagem if you have a unit armed with Bolt weapons. Not something to build a list around, but certainly a nice bonus for when you want to make a unit's Bolters shots really count.

Sir, You are a legend. ANy chance we could get more info on the Lord of Contagians? I’m trying to see their weapon profiles and also the psychic powers to see which keyword interactions there are. WIsh i had my book =(. Hopefully it arrives soon.

See above for the LoC. Here's the powers:

Dude thanks so much. It is amazing!! It is also funny you don’t have a terrible camera that makes the photos look like Bigfoot in the wild haha.

Question does Tyhpus give just +1 Str to poxwalkers or does it give them +1 attack also? I have heard both.

Why do you think Deamon engines don't get inexorable advance? They clearly would be included in the description where it references how applies to vehicles would they not?

Soooo....

Malefic Talons are crap now, and you cannot take a plague spewer and wings. Guess that's 2 DPs that are sitting on the shelf and another that is illegally equipped.

Cheers GW.

They don’t have the Bubonic Astartes keyword and IA only gives those benefits to models with that keyword.

Actually, Wings are crap now, imo. +35pts. for FLY and 2 more inches of movement? Pass.

oh in reference to the FW units? as the DemonEngines in the codex have that, though the rule doesn't state it requires Bubonic Astartes... does it? Just Death guard

NVR mind I see it now

Wings do seem like a waste now.

Any chance we could get a picture of relics/warlord traits.

DId you notice any other large changes?

All my DPs have wings. Oh look, the DG DP mini doesn't have them, don't want people learning an actual skill in this hobby (which converting and kitbashing is just as much as painting) so lets dissuade people from taking them as an option. Sounds about right.

I find it odd that our lord of contagians only have 5 attacks vs 6 attacks.

Typhus really seems much better than the normal LoC. I wish I could take one of each, sigh......
