Blindhamster Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Hmm. So... no point in playing for a few months then? Meh. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291489-7th-edition-faq-is-up/page/2/#findComment-3698022 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ushtarador Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 nah, its only for possession it seems so poor. Exactly /: At the moment, I mostly hope that the daemon factoy will be countered so hard by biker lists or vehicle spam that nobody will bring them. Can't think of anything more boring to play against.

TheSauce Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Just looked the FAQ over myself. Total bummer about losing fast on everything except the baal, though I doubt that was an oversight. Another reason to play as Red Talons (http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Red_Talons) until we get our new codex. Â Going to have to try a furioso librarian, though.

Blindhamster Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Its interesting as at this point we are essentially more expensive red marines with less reliable army wide rules and worse characters. Quite frustrating to be honest... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291489-7th-edition-faq-is-up/page/2/#findComment-3698082 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ushtarador Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Well, if we are indeed the next codex after orcs, we won't have to wait long :) Also, I am sure that the people at my LGS will not mind if I still play my vehicles as fast, considering they still cost 30+ points more than their regular counterparts.

Leksington Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I have to wonder if this is some psychological ploy: Nerf the BA (and the SWs) so when a new Codex comes out they looks that much more powerful by comparison. It is like selling soda. They give you the price of a medium cola, but for just 25 cents more you can have twice the cola! Sweet Jesus, What a Deal!!! They never intended to sell mediums, but they tricked you into thinking the large was such a great value. This FAQ is our medium cola.

mustardParty Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Losing Furious Charge Int boosting was bad enough, now we have red vehicles that just cost more too. Â ML2 Libby Dreads are kind of cool though. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291489-7th-edition-faq-is-up/page/2/#findComment-3698163 Share on other sites More sharing options...
marine7312000 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Well looks like I'll finally be making the move to the Heresy. At least for the time being. If our codex isn't awesome I will not be coming back.

AngryCanadian Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Vang vets still use heroic intervention Wow i can't believe this is still in there, I have been debating painting up a squad but I feel pretty certain they will get nerfed with a new codex is this also an oversight? I almost want to re-paint all my assault marine helmets gold so i can use them as VV Having three 10 man squads combat squad into 6 then Deep Strike and lock up everything in combat or blow up tanks with melta bombs but will these models be useless when our new dex comes out?

JamesI Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I hate to say this, but I think my Blood Angels are officially retired until we get a new codex after this FAQ.

Spagunk Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I think they also upped the Strength against embarked dread when a stormraven explodes. Not 100% certain what it was before but strength is now a 10 vs. rear armor.

ChapelXIII Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 So now Mephiston and Sanguinor can join units? They still don't have the independent character rule so no. I got my hopes up as well.

Well that sucks. But even that is not as bad as losing the fast rule on our vehicles while retaining full price IMO... I hate to say this, but I think my Blood Angels are officially retired until we get a new codex after this FAQ. I think I'll do the same. And it's too bad really since I just managed coming back to the hobby after some time.

ianj253 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Hmm, Changes to vehicles are a bummer, but I'm still going to keep going with my BA. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291489-7th-edition-faq-is-up/page/2/#findComment-3698554 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAZ_AV_NZ Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 It says they are all characters in the faq. If they are characters they can join a unit. Independent characters cannot join units. If that is the case that they cannot join a unit then none of the other characters listed on the faq can. They are all noted as characters so all character rules apply. Same for meph and dante etc On the topic of psychics wolves lost theres as well. Not sure what GW is playing ats removing chapters own unique spells and individual traits.

simison Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I'm going to stand fast with the BA until the new codex comes out. Even then, at worst, I might relegate them to an Allied detachment. (Though the vehicle and BA psychic powers debuff was an unwelcome kick to the head.)

Â Characters cannot join units. Only Independent Characters can. Character is a unit type. Independent Character is a special rule. The FAQ lists type but does not show special rules, which are unchanged.

aura_enchanted Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Ba's got the shaft so hard. You look like the dark angels did with the 5th edition codex dropped lol.

Sn4k30r Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I just wanted to buy some BA stuff... i bought a Baal to play my BT army as BA when i wanted to. BUt wait WHAT? NO FAST? VEHICLES? Â Really? more Points for nothing? all named nurfed, and all vehicles became nothing But vindi won ap1 Hurray! OR NOT! Â if there is no FAQ assap i am afraid BA will be 100% dead....before New codex is out..... i am so sorry about saying that i believe is the worst marine codex right now..... with that FAQ they turned 5-6 years back.....

Emperors Immortals Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 So "all friendly models with the Blood Angels Faction" means what exactly? Did our Blood Chalice just gain the ability to affect allied guard blobs?  Its cool, I played UM cause they sucked, ill stick by BA forever.  Baals still have fast, but I ran fast preds and razorbacks too so I'm upset.  Aura_enchanted that's a nice offer, but our manly tears might stain your girly dresses. ;p  And Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291489-7th-edition-faq-is-up/page/2/#findComment-3698613 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sn4k30r Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I love all marines i was touched by BT and BA , but now really? All units overcosted, gaining nothing not even fast,(only baal,,,,) so many choices compare to Vanilla marines,  Vanilla marines= cheaper everything, Ironclads(instead furiosos ) thunderfires, better named characters-chapter tacticks URules, More heavy choices -hunter-centurions etc...fast same Stormtalons and they can have even more troop choices with bikes, better beasts heroes with items,  BA= all extra points ++ for nothing to gain, no more BA psychics, lower slots on all entries, LOST FAST (Kick in @$#) no relics wargears.....  Give me a reason continue playing not a 5th edition codex but with those FAQ a 4th edition or 3rd compare to 7th other codexes..... except waiting 3-4 months till they get a codex.... Guys really if was a Full BA player i would definetely go with vanilla till new dex is out....

Emperors Immortals Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 We still have Baal preds and Death Co., the most awesome units in 40k IMO. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291489-7th-edition-faq-is-up/page/2/#findComment-3698630 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAZ_AV_NZ Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 So from whats been said none of our hq leaders can join units any more as they are characters not independent characters.
