Deagle_Raa Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Holy crap they finally spent the 10 minutes needed to update the rules! EDIT: wow, having just read the DA one, Deathwing are going to be the ultimate hammer unit. 2+/3++ Feel no pain!?! And what, Heavy2 cyclone to boot? Time to paint up more thunder hammer/ storm shields!

skink Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 So, please correct me if I'm wrong... We now have really cheap Typhoons and Cyclones, and Belial with Thunder Hammer and a decent Storm Shield costs peanuts...? Awesome...

breng77 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 god dammit, why did this not come out a month ago, I'm playing my DA as Space marines in a tourney tomorrow, and i had to submit my list already. :tu: but at least I can go back to playing them as DA. YAY! This will change a number of my lists though, FNP termies and One Ravenwing bike squad (will now go up to 6 and probably have the banner as well.

JamesI Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 The idea of 2+/3++ and FNP on terminators is pretty nasty. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219447-new-faqon-gw-website/#findComment-2617207 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Landrain Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Wow... After all the resistance from GW, about correcting DA equipment to standard, they do it finally. Only issue I still see is the Ravenwing Turbo boost.

Brother-Captain Sharp Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I cannot adequately convey just how very, very, very, very, very excited I am by this news. So I will just say this: I was so excited I gave myself a bloody nose. Thank you, GW!!!! Edit: Also, they changed BT's thunderhammers, but not ours. Heh.

Grandmaster damion Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 *checks calander* Strange it not the eleventy second of septober. Wasn't that when we were supposed to get an FAQ that was this radical in its approach? Ok on a serious note words cannot express how happy this has made me, but actions can *runs round like a five year old full of sugar* Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219447-new-faqon-gw-website/#findComment-2617245 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother-Captain Sharp Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I just realized this means the Belial I built with Thunderhammer and Storm Shield isn't actually that bad of a build!

aekold Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Given this new trend, would it be to far fetched to say that the new stormraven will be availible to us as well? That would make me so happy. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219447-new-faqon-gw-website/#findComment-2617284 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillyfish Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Very interesting. Positives: Cyclone and storm shield now equivalent to Codex marines (no additional cost if bought as part of a DW squad) Typhoon missile upgrade (no additional cost) Improved drop pods Clarification on RW outflank Calrity over scout sergeant options Updated POTMS Negatives (arguable): Feel No Pain for apothecaries instead of ignoring first wound in shooting Smoke launchers updated Unresolved: Scoring RW Landspeeders (presumably this means they are, but it would be nice to have an FAQ) Thunderhammer stats are still old (good for us, if memory serves) Tactical squad entry is still inconsistent with more recent releases (may be intentional?) Overall my thoughts are that this is very nice to have. Very nice indeed. Company veterans and DW get some nice buffs with the new storm shield rules (which, combined with the old thunderhammer rules mean they will be nasty) The Typhoon becomes viable too. But overall I can see Deathwing squads gaining the most from this, particularly in combination with the apothecary and Deathwing banner. Time will tell (obviously), but I for one am rather happy to see this.

Bartali Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I can't stop grinning at work, people must think I've gone mad :lol: Just simply updating a FAQ is going to genearate some sales for GW, i'm certainly picking up another box of Assault Terminators on the way home Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219447-new-faqon-gw-website/#findComment-2617286 Share on other sites More sharing options...
