Dreadknight Doomfist ruling - it's RaW, but I can see a lot of GK players being unhappy that their giant exoskeletons with giant power fists are weaker than a marine in power armour with a powerfist.

Falchions are clarified that the +1 attack in the description is because it's a pair, and is not cumulative with the +1 for having 2 single handed weapons (because the model doesn't have two single handed weapons, it has a single weapon system that happens to be a pair of weapons ... )

The rest are pretty much common sense, so overall not a bad FAQ.

Yeah, I was surprised by the Doomfist, also the Scout Shunting slightly surprised me.

Just noticed that too TW. I'm also checking a few of the others too.

No more using the same psychic power twice unless explicitly allowed by the model/unit, and a few other clarifications in bright purple.

Yes, also settled a huge argument that was raging on dakka about being able to allocate failed dangerous terrain test wounds on different models in the unit.

Spack · by **Spack** » Mon Jun 13, 2011 7:24 pm

Yeah, never could understand why people thought they could do that as the rulebook states that the model takes a wound, not the unit ...

Rending clarification makes Vindicares even nastier too, with a possible penetration roll of 36 with a turbo-penetrator round!

If you've a spare hour or so to wade through the nonsense, the thread is here;

No thanks, I'd rather stick forks in my eyes than read through a protracted nerd rant on Dakka

If it makes you feel any better, it wouldn't have been worth the read as well! :wink:

Also, I quite agree with you, but dakka serves a purpose.
I discuss rules here with you lot because it's like a group of friends having a civil debate over a pint in the local pub.

I jump into dakka rules "discussions" because sometimes, it's quite fun to do! :twisted:
