For fliers we already have the Nightwing wish I could fit a Crimsom guy inside.

a Banshee mask has Initiative 10, even if it charged through

difficult terrain. Furthermore, defensive grenades cannot be

used against a charging model with a Banshee Mask.

Replace the last sentence with the following profile:

Is that from the old FAQ?

I just had a look here and there seems to be only one faq point at the moment, regarding the Shadow Weaver Weapon:

But we got the biggest robot! Ah ha! ...which could go into a fit of rage or bout of depression at any moment being controlled by one dead Eldar and the twin he left behind. These are the Days of our Lives.

What do they call that special rule? Wraith-woe? Wraith-angst? Wraith-mope? Wraith-wimpern'whine? Wraith-boohoohoo? I am so looking forward to getting a look at this codex. I've been needing some new material for Elf mockery.

Re: banshee masks. I prefer:

Banshee Mask: A model wearing a Banshee Mask makes its attacks at the I-10 stage of the assault sub-phase on the turn it charges. A model or unit charged by a model wearing a banshee mask must make an Ld check. If they fail, they may not fire overwatch this turn.

I don't see that being broken, and it matches the fluff to a tee. Banshees charge you, their psychic howl paralysis your nervous system for a few seconds, thus you can neither shoot them nor react much to their attacks. However, if you charge a unit of banshees then the masks don't do squat, cos the ladies haven't got their waaaagh on yet.

Out of curiosity, is there anybody here who can see a problem with the rules I just made up? Don't get me wrong - I have no intention of ever trying to use em, but I think they're pretty good. Better than GWs efforts, anyway...

Only one FAQ at the time of publication! Wow, GW is improving bit by bit.

[me_in_japan]

At least they are FAQing it. Time was they'd just ignore it until the next edition came out...

Incidentally - bugger me, but that was quick!

Quick and very nicely done.

Wow that is an awesome wraith knight!

As for GW, it is good that they are FAQing more promptly, but they have a long ways to go in that department compared to the likes of BF or PP. Anyway, at the prices they charge and the size of their operation, I hold them at slightly higher standard and expect they should proof read very well and have a grip on their myriad rules.
