Phodos Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 FAQ as stated in the rulebook Faq page Q. If models disembark from a transport into dangerous terrain, do they take a dangerous terrain test? Unlike Pile-in or Consolidation moves, disembarking does not specifically states that it doesn't trigger dangerous terrain tests. A. Dangerous terrain says you test for every model that has 'entered, left or moved through' the terrain. As there is no exception in the text, disembarking models do have to test. However, if they disembark at the beginning of their move and then move after the disembarkation, only one test is needed, not two. Tempest Wrath FAQ from SW Faq page Q. The description of the Rune Priest psychic power Tempest’s Wrath states that some units within of 24" of the Rune Priest treat all terrain as difficult and dangerous terrain. According to the rulebook, disembarking is not subject to difficult and dangerous terrain effects. So can we assume a unit disembarking from a transport vehicle into cover whilst within of 24" of the Rune Priest wouldn’t have to take a test for dangerous terrain? A. Correct, but remember that the Tempest’s Wrath may affect them later that turn. looks like the SW Faq was written without looking at the rulebook faq. just seems really odd to me(My codex isnt here atm so it might be a wording issue with Tempest Wrath? maybe what units it effects or something) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/202425-faq-contradiction/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decoy Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Good thing Codex trumps main Rulebook, aye? :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/202425-faq-contradiction/#findComment-2412137 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiguriusX Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Good thing Codex trumps main Rulebook, aye? :P The SW codex doesn't change the BRB rule on disembarking. The FAQ was an interpretation based on an old rule. I believe the BRB FAQ post-dates the SW FAQ and the BRB FAQ would control because the Tempest's Wrath doesn't change an existing rule. It works with it. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/202425-faq-contradiction/#findComment-2412183 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decoy Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Actually, I think you're correct, Tigurius. The wording on the Wolf FAQ (upon closer examination, silly me for skimming) simply states they take the Disembark Dangerous. It says that units -may- have to take further tests later on, but it is incredibly vague, meaning assault, or fall-back... or whatever... but it is by no means exclusive. I retract my former, hastier statement in regards to this matter, and instead state it as a general rule regarding Codex overriding BRB as a point of enjoyment.

Ullr Direfang Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 it's just GW way at things if it is ever a big problem for you( as in some one giving you a hard time about it) just roll off for it or call GW for a on the fly answer that can't be fought be an opponent.
