FAQs

Couple FAQs have popped up for Custodes and GSC, none for the tau surprisingly.

They at least closed the custode army teleport loophole, where he wasn't targettable.

I wouldn't expect the Tau one this quickly.

GSC one has nothing that wasn't typos or things you would have played that way anyways, the one change I see is they changed the cost of Our Time Is Nigh to 15 points, I think previously it was 10?

also nerfed prowling agitant... now the charge can't be baited and failed due to the movement as they just select someone else... ie: the only actual reason to take that warlord trait!

Our time is nigh was 10 points, so a 5 point hike there.

Neophytes can be 20 strong again... which always should have been the case, because they're guardsmen lol

so couple minor nerfs, but they're so small that probably won't impact a whole lot.

[raceygaming]

I know it might not be fun for everyone but I kinda hope they dont touch tau until we get the eldar release. I'd like to see them both in full force on the table.
I know it's not ideal for other armies but would be nice to see if they just moved the base power up a whole level or if it was a tau misstep.

This was just a typo actually, the datasheet said 10-20, while the points page in the back of the book said 5-15.

[Typhus]

Our Time is Nigh was listed as +15 points in the codex, and then listed as +10 points in CA22 - I'm not surprised they reverted it, given it was the sole change for GSC in CA22.

Shame about Prowling Agitant.

[Frosty the Pirate]

I think Prowling Agitant is still useful for frontline characters who need to not get counter-charged, but it's obviously way less strong with the charge-retarget. Primus/Magus or other frontline characters could make use of it to flee when their protection is about to take a dirt nap, I could also see it being useful on Kelemorph too as a double up on his get-outta-dodge.

Honestly I kinda felt like I was going to have to explain it to my opponent's anyways to prevent feels-bad moments, so this avoids that dirty-trickery anyways.

[Jack Shrapnel]

when I have used it (once)... I just told my opponent what it did, and the character got shot instead of charged lol

I really need to play my GSC more to learn this damn book.... but I did NOT want to try playing them at clubs and try to run the thing as they're a little time/brain intensive lol
