Gentlemanloser Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Currently, there are two sets of rules for the Stormraven that GK have access to, and both are different. Is the unit entry in the GK Codex the official version, or is it the version from Death from the Skies? If the newer unit from Death from the Skies was identicle to the unit in our Codex, it would be a non issue. But that's not the case. Are both equally official? Can either be used? Can both be used at the same time? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/283249-gk-stormraven-which-version-is-official/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishagu Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 The new rules are far, far better as they allow you to disembark even if the flyer was locked in to combat velocity and could no longer hover. As long as you have access to the book, or can prove the rule I believe no one can question that it's official. To me the DFTS expansion is more of an FAQ for 5th edition flyers that needed rules updating for 6th. *edit: misread the question Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/283249-gk-stormraven-which-version-is-official/#findComment-3520910 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gentlemanloser Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share Posted November 13, 2013 The Old Shadowied Skies are superior (although they have now been replaced by FAQ with the same rule as the DftS version), as they worked with Interceptors using Personal Teleporters. The new version ignores them totally.

Gentlemanloser Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share Posted November 13, 2013 We only have access to the Stormraven from our Codex, or from Death from the Skies.

Magpie Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Death from the Skies has been replaced by Skies of Fury by amendment. What else is different Codex to DftS ?

Gentlemanloser Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share Posted November 13, 2013 Locator Beacons for one. I'm sure there are other differences. (It should also be noted Codex: GK doesn't have a wargear entry for a Locator Beacon. Nor does DftS) Edit: Extra Armour is 10 points cheaper in DftS than in Codex:GK Edit2: Got the Answer from "The Warriors Code" We expect everyone to use the most recently released version of each unit entry.

Axagoras Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Yea it can be confusing especially with forge world units getting updates all over the place.
