Tactics Corner

Rules Lawyer

  • Hi there.
  • The rules for Canoptek Artillery for the Assault phase are not used if an Independent Character has joined the unit. In this instance you would use the normal rules for Artillery in the Assault phase from the 40k rulebook.
  • Sentry Pylons may not Snap Fire with Focused Death Rays.
  • Your example of multiple Pylons with Focused Death Rays shooting at a unit is correct.
  • The Jink rule may not be used against hits from a Focused Death Ray
  • If there is anything further we can do to assist you, or if you have any queries about the information we have requested or provided, please telephone us.Regards,
  • Forge World
