Pretty much every FAQ has been updated for 40k, including Necrons.

My favourite one, to really piss off Ol:

Page 26 – Runes of Warding
Change the last sentence to "All enemy Psykers must
roll an extra dice when taking Psychic tests, suffering
Perils of the Warp on any roll of 12 or above."

LAWL!!! There's a big old !@%$#%@ you! to the Grey Knight players :))

There is no problem in life that can't be solved with Heroic Killing Blow:
Plague Furnace, Abomination, Hydra, Wyvern, Arachnarok, Engine of the Gods, Zombie Dragon, Vargulf, Hellcannon. To be continued...

If we assume that there are infinite universes, then in at least one of them, I'm banging Emma Watson. Awesome!

Only the justicar will perils in a unit.

Still, that's every Justicar on the table, and its about 30% chance he dies, then the next guy who replaces him, if he wants to cast. You'd have to be pretty ballsy to be risking that.

I might be being incredibly dense this afternoon, but isn't that what it always did?
The codex says "all enemy psychic tests must be taken on 3D6, suffering perils on 12+...". It just looks like a semantics change to me...?

Most of the updates seem to be logical clarifications for the benefit of the brain-dead few who would argue the point to the nth degree; some are a bit of a kick in the teeth to older books (e.g. JoWW and Blood Lance don't need to roll to hit, but Lash does...  #-) ). Some of them are "un-cock-ups", like transports no longer offering Shadow of the Warp protection to psykers, and some are just a WTF MOMENT...

...Dawn Of War - Guard basically deploy the whole Platoon plus allocated transports as one of your two Troop selections. That's a lot of effing models, as if they needed the help. F**k You Robin-I'm-a-gremlin-f**kwit-moron-who-should-just-be-buried-alive-Cruddace.
"Sanguinius. It should have been him. He has the vision and strength to take us to victory, and wisdom to rule once victory is won. For all his aloof coolness, he alone has the Emperor's soul in his blood. Each of us carries part of our father - Sanguinius holds it all." Horus

Thats it, buddy, just let it all out. Its not your fault...   :hug;2:

Jack, you might be right. I thought it was just double 6s for Perils still, Never really read it properly tbh....

That's a relief, I was just worried that I'd been cheating everyone! I don't think Ollie used a single power in our game after I told him what those runes did  :wink;m::

That's just beautiful.....so if I have two platoons I can deploy all of them and all thier transports and just roll on my heavies, fast and HQ?

Does it really make that much difference? You have to deal with them sooner or later anyway... Other than them having a large area of coverage from Deepstrike etc, tell me why its a massive problem?
