We adive into the latest FAQ update, including rules clarifications, erratas, and all of the buffs and nerfs! Scott AKA The Dunlending War Cry joins the cast to fill in for Ian as we break down all…
okay to start let's go to the rules manual all right starting with afaqs if a model has a rule meaning it must charge are they forced to jump leap climb or swim in order to get there basically so the answer is no and they're not required to spend my or re-roll these tests
I like how every FAQ is just like the same clarification, but then they take it a step further.
It's the same thing.
Yeah, there's quite a few of them this time around where it's like, okay, you couldn't do that.
What if I do it this slightly different way? And they're just the spray bottle.
Go away.
Yeah, yeah.
No! Do wings, weapons, banners, and other war gear count as a part of a model when determining in the ways? So the answer is no, just as those elements do not count for the purpose of line of sight.
They also don't count for in the
ways.
So we're finally back to last edition where it did spell that out and then they removed it.
So now we're back.
It almost feels like it should have been an errata, but I guess they like saying that it was always like this.
Clearly it was always like that.
If a model forgoes its activation as part of a heroic move, does it skip taking a courage test for being part of a broken army?
No. That's a funny one.
Everyone kept bringing up like, what do I do here? I'm forgoing my activation because I'm just not going to end within six.
Now, they didn't really clarify how the timing is going to work on that.
But I assume it's going to be that you just still have to activate at some point.
Just do nothing else but do the test.
Can a beast model try to uncover artifacts? No.
Yeah,
I guess this was the loophole for heirlooms.
A lot of people were arguing, yeah, beasts can't pick up the objective, but maybe they can flip it, right? Or uncover it first.
