pretre Posted December 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 Yeah, I mean, that's always been the case against Tau, as I said. It's not that bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s kind of their whole raison d'etre... My 5th ed Orks outshot them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, so did 5th ed Guard and a few other armies over time, it was a broad statement to make a point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This power allows you to choose a unit and then make it fight. Big difference in wording. I absolutely agree with FAQ is needed. It doesn't say you can make it fight. It says "can be chosen to fight with twice", but that doesn't say anything about eligibility. The rulebook says that "any unit that charged or has models within 1" of a enemy unit can be chosen to fight." IMO, RAW, nothing about the faith power supercedes the rulebook requirements.

Ish Posted December 18, 2018 Report Share Posted December 18, 2018 My point is that in the grand game of paper-rock-scissors-lizard-Spock that is WH40k, there’s just plain going to be times when your army — either because of your list’s composition or just the basic codex itself – is going to run into match-ups where it is at a disadvantage. Trying to predict what those will be and mitigate them is, like, half the fun of list building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VonVilkee Posted December 18, 2018 Report Share Posted December 18, 2018 "Can be chosen to fight twice" is different then can "fight again/ twice" in my opinion but that may or may not be the intent <shrugs> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ish Posted December 18, 2018 Report Share Posted December 18, 2018 At least, I think I did if you meant “blarney” rather than “barney.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ish Posted December 19, 2018 Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 The Dune movie had Sting. Flash Gordon had Queen. Queen had Freddie Mercury in Flash Gordon cosplay getting a piggy-back ride from Darth Vader... No, this has nothing to do with our topic at hand. It’s still awesome. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ish Posted December 20, 2018 Report Share Posted December 20, 2018 The joke isn’t funny if I have to explain that I was deliberately misunderstanding which version of Dune you were referring to just so I’d have the tenuous pretext to bring it back ‘round to Flash Gordon. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
