This is the dumbest thing I've ever read...
GW: "If you WANT to screw yourself over by being shoehorned into our oddly specific list-building guidelines you CAN; but if you don't want to, then that's okay too... I guess..."
Page 55 – Traitoris Lances
Change to read:
• ‘If this Detachment is an Arks of Omen Detachment, Super heavy Detachment, or if you are playing a Combat Patrol battle and this Detachment is a Super-heavy Auxiliary Detachment, select one War Dog-class, Abhorrent-class or Tyrant-class model in this Detachment. That model gains the Character keyword.
• If this Detachment (excluding Arks of Omen Detachments) contains between 1 and 2 Abhorrent-class models, or if it contains between 3-5 War Dog-class models, this Detachment’s Command Benefits are changed to: ‘+3 Command points if your Warlord is part of this Detachment.’
• If this Detachment (excluding Arks of Omen Detachments) contains 3 or more Abhorrent-class models, or if it contains 6 or more War Dog-class models and 1 or more Titanic units, this Detachment’s Command Benefits are changed to: ‘+6 Command points if your Warlord is part of this Detachment.’’

And apparently some super tryhards were using Cabbalistic Rituals with Flamers...
Page 71 – Cabbalistic Rituals
Add the following paragraph: ‘Note that when a Cabbalistic Ritual specifies a ‘unit from your army’ with regard to when it can be used (e.g. ‘when a unit from your army is selected to manifest psychic powers’), that Cabbalistic Ritual can only be used if that unit has the Thousand Sons keyword.’

Just for laughs, we should all head up to a tournament there once and just bring super thematic lists. Just bring Kingston to Ottawa and really skew their numbers and way of thinking. lol, it'd be hilarious!

As a soldier I have moved between many gaming communities as I bounce around - each one takes on a culture.
I find Kingston’s is a distinct ecosystem. Perhaps we are big enough to preserve a culture yet small enough to develop one? If that makes any sense? In a really big city there are multiple groups and the competition can get cut-throat because there is always another opponent. Here - its a little different. I think we are chill-competitive? If that makes any sense?
As for the FAQ, my Dark Angels can have 1st or 2nd Company. No more multiple Detachments with Obsec for Deathwing and Ravenwing.
With Nephilim CP restrictions it was very hard to take two Detachments anyway, but this still hurts. I will max out Plasma Inceptors to dry my salty tears as I bathe you all in the Lion’s retribution for this injustice...

Totally agree. Everywhere has a unique vibe. Kingston 17 years ago was very different than it is now even
I'm just finding ottawa's groups only seems to exist in extremes
