You know, I really find this whole 'chicken crossing roads' premise is just dumb. Most chickens are in fenced enclosures, and what kind of farmer builds their enclosures across roads. Just stop. Also, most priests, rabbis and nuns don't even drink, so why would they be in a bar! Who ever heard of a genie and why is it's hearing so bad that it can't tell the difference between 'penis' and 'pianist'?

Not enough context to know if this is good or not. Hoping this makes running death jesters decent. Like the model and the rules for that guy, but that dude dies if he is sneezed at.

Which is made more impressive that they were on Cadia at the time.

It just seems weird to me to not allow, for example, your Chaplain not being a part of his own Command Squad.

# ? May 9, 2017 16:40 |
This might be a huge boon to things that previously only boosted the squad they were attached to. Also, I wonder how Lone Wolves will work now.

I'm not too happy about this change to characters. They still have protection from shooting, challenges are likely gone as they're simply separate units now, and bubble effects are fine, but there's the potential for some weird situations with separate characters. For example: I'm going to go ahead and assume that characters can ride in a unit's transport without issues. Let's assume it's an assault vehicle while we're at it. When they all pile out and get ready to charge there'll be two 2d6 rolls. Two points of failure. You could easily wind up with the unit in combat without the character or vice-versa. They gave all characters a little counter-charge ability which is neat, but doesn't help if your target is more than 3" away. This would not have been an issue if they had just tied charges to the movement stat in some way for some reliability. I still think M/2+d6 would be a better solution than 2d6.

People are being tricked by people pretending to be tricked by @gameswerkshop to elicit people into genuinely being tricked by @gameswerkshop and so are berating the people pretending to be tricked by @gameswerkshop for being tricked by @gameswerkshop when it is, in fact, they that have been tricked. I hope that clears up matters. Now 'scuse me while I disappear up my own butthole from all this recursive nonsense.

A little better than the CSM article, but not by much. We at least know that Leman Russes are T8 with 12 wounds, and a pretty generous wound table from the sounds of things. Also, educated guess, Commissar bonus is gonna be "Kill one dude, disregard any other casualties from moral checks".

We predicted snipers could target characters, now we know snipers can target characters. That was fast! Also Rapid Fire 2 sounds terrifying. I can't wait to see it in practice. The Bee fucked around with this message at 17:26 on May 9, 2017 |

Because it is hard to balance things when you only get a chance to update things once every 3 years. I'm hoping that Sentinels are actually going to be good now. I want to make a scout army. The nice thing with formations dying is that finally Forgeworld items will be usable in more than CAD.

One of the Astra Militarum’s most well-known rules mechanics, Orders work automatically now and provide a variety of bonuses. You have 7 to choose from, but the one I want to discuss is ‘First Rank, Fire! Second Rank, Fire!’. This now makes a unit of Astra Militarum infantry treat their lasguns and hot-shot lasguns as Rapid Fire 2; that’s 4 shots per Guardsman at half range! Combined with the fact that every weapon has a chance to hit any target, the much-derided lasgun can now be the deadly laser weapon the Emperor’s armies need. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3ALwKeSEYs
