Because of the perceived extra durability of bullgryns, they may very well have decided the stratagem combos were too powerful. The Shield of Flesh stratagem is literally something Bullgryns used to have once (giving protection to infantry behind them). If it's not an oversight then it's sheer stupidity on GWs decisionmaking - which I wouldn't put past them.

Jaipii Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 7 hours ago, TCC said: FYI You miss quoted it, the bit you missed is key, it’s the each that defines it as more than one, “Troopers can each have their” it’s very clear to me that you can take two of the per unit. Thanks! At the moment it's clear RAW. The asterisk just doesn't make sense as it restricts you to only have two of the same weapon. Must have been supposed to say "same weapon only ONCE".

sairence Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 6 hours ago, Inquisitor_Lensoven said: Can the vox proclimatus be used from inside a chimera? If that was the relic then yes. Units inside transports are functionally not on the table and can't be affected by strats, and can only interact with stuff on the board through specific exceptions, like the Chimeras commane vehicle rule. But a relic is an upgrade specific to the unit. So as long as it can issue orders, it can use anything the unit itself has.

Seahawk Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 My questions: 1. Were LRBT supposed to lose emergency vents? Having your own Plasma cannon kill yourself with a single 1 is terribad. 2. Were all superheavy guns supposed to lose all special rules? Having their guns not match any past edition or even the lore printed in the same datasheet is...terrible. 3. Were demolisher cannons supposed to have different stats based on what vehicle they're mounted on? I'd understand having the amount of shots be different, but they're not, it's the damage that's different.

L30n1d4s Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 They now use "Militarum Plasma Cannons," which only do 1 MW per 1 rolled to their unit.

That's covered in the wording of the muintorum plasma cannons, its just1mw 2, terrible, covers quite a bit in this dex, /looks at catachan datasheet 3, demolisher cannons really needed d6+3 shots Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/376574-9th-ed-codex-early-rules-questions/page/4/#findComment-5891926 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawk Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) Oh I see about 1. I love that there are multiple profiles for the same weapons now. Much consistent, so useful. Wait a minute, if nothing in the codex can take a regular Plasma cannon, why bother including its stats?

dees Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 TCC is correct and I'm fairly sure there are or will be others. That being said I don't see an upside to getting into combat with orks so just shoot them if at all possible. duz_ 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/376574-9th-ed-codex-early-rules-questions/page/4/#findComment-5893980 Share on other sites More sharing options...
