Warhammer 40k Big FAQ 2018 2 is out!

Just like the title says, the Warhammer 40k Big FAQ 2018 2 is out! You can download the FAQ from the Warhammer Community page  HERE! *The first big change is the change to Psychic focus. Except for smite, each psychic power can only be cast once! There goes my Ork "Da Jump" force ... Honestly, in the games I've played, smite is the biggest problem, not the other powers. *Next the big change is to the tactical reserves. "Units that arrive as reinforcements must now wait until the second battle round to do so – they are reserves that arrive to reinforce your army mid-battle, not reinforce it before your opponent has had a chance to move any of their own models." *Also, the amount of reserves is now limited by points, not the number of units. *The advance deployment stratagems took a hit.

New Warhammer 40k Announced!

This is some big news - Games Workshop announces the new 8tb edition of Warhammer 40k! www.warhammer-community.com/2017 I, for one, am very excited. It's all covered in the FAQ, but no codexes, free rules, all of your minis are still in the game, and 3 ways to play!

Warhammer 40k FAQs!

Whoa, Games Workshop has released their new FAQ for Warhammer 40k! A lot of the changes were based on community feedback and they even gave credit to Frontline Gaming/operators of the Las Vegas Open for their help. Link to changes on GW's site. My favorite FAQ? Witchfire psychic powers without a profile, like Psychic Shriek, don't need to roll to hit. Invisibility? You can't hide from being yelled at. Also, Battle Brothers can NOT deploy in each other's dedicated transports. No more drop pod rideshare for Ad Mech. Let's hope that drop pods get a little more expensive or Rhinos get cheaper. If the rumors are true, 8th edition is just around the corner, so I imagine most of these will apply to that edition as well.
