What's the email address for GWs Horus Heresy FAQs? Corax needs Shrouded

[Lord Krungharr]

Anyone know?  I have the Age of Sigmar email address, but can't find the HH one.  Corax not getting to use his Shrouded roll is complete bologna and a really really bad oversight.  Let them hear our cries!!!

Corax isn't the only one... Fearess models cannot use any kind of damage mitigation. That even includes Feel no Pain!

EDIT: So a Primus Medicae, who deploys with a Fearless Unit, or Herald, or Unique Fearless IC, cannot himself, or let anyone else use his 5+ Feel no Pain... xD

I don't think this is the case. In the original rules it said fearless units couldn't make reactions to gain damage mitigation but not that they couldn't gain it from any source. That rule was removed in the Errata, though now Shrouding has a rule saying fearless models (not units) can't take shrouding saves. Corax is Fearless so can't use his own 4+++ shrouding save but I'm not aware of anything stopping fearless stuff using FNP.

 

Annoyingly, they do sometimes talk about fearless units (not models) without actually defining what they are. Logically I guess that means a unit with a fearless model in but actually nothing in the fearless rule says that one fearless model gives fearless to everyone else. Instead, the unit gains benefits (and penalties) from having one fearless model.

It is HeresyFAQ@gwplc.com

Although valid I'm not entirely sure why you want to be tanking Shrouded saves on Corax, but that's beside the point.

For what it's worth everyone I have played against has let me use Corax's shroud mitigation on himself, but not the unit he has joined, so no evade, no shroud from the turn the unit comes in from deepstrike etc. The intention is clear. He gets to use his own war gear. Anyone that lawyers that is kind of cringe... but I'd also talk about it with the guys I play with before hand. If they don't want to allow it, i already have a second list to play with. In events I think it's just reading the TO player packet and follow that accordingly. Though most events will limit primarchs and named characters, or disallow them entirely.
