Shinespider Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Thanks a lot. Rotate Ion Shields is now capped at 4++. Not sure this is the big nerf people were hoping for, but it's something.

That and the Castellan is 100 points more expensive. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355599-big-faq-has-dropped/#findComment-5303883 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MistaGav Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 The bottom of the Errata also mentions the Castellan weapons going up by 100 points so that's a more significant nerf.Deathwatch and SM vehicles like the Dark Talon, Storm Raven and Land Raider Crusader have also been nerfed with the Bolter Discipline rule which sucks majorly.

wildweasel Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 The Rules Update itself: https://www.warhammer-community.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/warhammer_40000_update_April_2019_en.pdf Commentary on several changes made in various FAQs. FLY can move across models other than BUILDINGS when charging, but not terrain.Things with FLY and a minimum move now gain AIRCRAFT, and models can basically ignore it entirely when moving, excpet they cant end their move on an AIRCRAFT's base or within 1" of it if it's an enemy.Different datasheets for the what are clearly supposed to be the same thing now all count to the Rule of Three - a Daemon Prince is a Daemon Prince, you can't have 3 picks of AM Leman Russes and 3 picks of Cult Leman Russes.Bolter Discipline is official, with the change that it doesn't apply to VEHICLES other than DREADNOUGHTS and HELBRUTES. Deathwatch can only use Bolter Discipline with standard bolter ammo, no SIA.Prepared Positions, Tactical Restraint, and Tactical Reserves all finalized with a few tweaks.The "Pick Your Assassin" strat is now 2 CP and can only be used if you don't already have any Assassins in your list (and not by FALLEN).

PeteySödes Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Im pretty sad about the Bolter discipline being gone from marine vehicles. Who thought they were too good?? I really wanted to run a Crusader this year and make it work but this might be the final nail. The DW change i feel is both fair and thematic, do you want good shots or many many shots. Still useful and fluffy. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355599-big-faq-has-dropped/#findComment-5303896 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Ruminahui Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Lord Discordant is now affected by legion traits, which is good, as they now apply to all characters - hmm, the change only seems to be in Shadowspear & Vigilus Ablaze, not in the Chaos Space Marine codex.

Sergeant Centurion Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 No bolter discipline in Land Raiders and Storm Ravens its a bit sad, but this are more reasons to launch Ironclad Dreads for me.

TheFinisher4Ever Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 There is some good stuff here. Ion shields being capped at 4++ and the fly change are the big ones. The Wraithseer getting T8 is nice though I doubt it's enough to bring him off the shelf. There is also some crappy stuff like nerfs to Sisters and Grey Knights which need the opposite. Space marine vehicles losing Bolter Discipline sucks too as well as losing double firing Hellfire shells. And then there is the bizarre missing stuff. The Taunar not losing the battle suit rule is pure insanity. It's a pretty mixed bag.

Yup, Chapter Approved is their annual points review. FAQ point changes are very sparring and to address only the most egregious cases. Also Oblits are confirmed at 115 each.

redmapa Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 2 CA and 3 FAQs later and still GW doesnt do anything for the likes of Necrons, GK or non-UM Space Marines. Last time I complained about it Reece told me the FAQ wasnt the place to look for balancing the lower tier armies and with 2 CA it seems like that isnt the place either, so which is it? A new codex?

Ishagu Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Castellan got hit really hard. I think the Ion shield nerf was enough. The big thing here is that loads of Knights are now far less viable, especially the FW melee focused ones that have a very high cost but were at least durable...

Kastor Krieg Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Oh crap, the Castellan + 2 Knights + 4 Armigers commission I've shipped and just reached US shore a few days ago... the poor guy won't be a happy camper :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355599-big-faq-has-dropped/#findComment-5303923 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ishagu Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Also back to the Drop Pod Door Debate, not that Drop Pods are any good now. I think Pods are pretty straight forward. You would never deploy them with open doors as keeping them 9" away from enemy becomes pretty detrimental.
