GW must have heard that I printed out the FAQs and said laughing, "Let's make him print out more, I'll bet he'll do it!" *sigh*

Post by: Benjamin on July 11, 2011, 03:28:37 PM: Most of it looks like answers to people who simply don't read the rules. And I'm not talking about rules interpretation, just straight-up, the rule is in the book, there it is, points at it, reading is key, literacy and retention wins again.

Orks are nerfed a bit (unless you're a Snikrot fan), GKs nerfed a bit moreso, Space Marines no real change and the Rulebook, well, depends on what you like to play. Valkyries/Vendettas/Stormravens are going to find some new rulings.

I think the only thing would be in regards to Fateweaver vs Null Zone. Instead of rolling the saves and rolling them all again, they say one roll should be made "to save time". Because it was such a fucking effort with my limp wrists to pick up those dice, and the ruling will cut hours off game time.
