Rumors: The Rumor Section is gathered from the web and is not in any way information we receive from any manufacturer nor is it necessarily accurate. This section of the podcast is intended for entertainment purposes only.
- The Ghostkeel apparently can be modeled open or closed, with both a male and female pilot. It is also rumored to be the next release.
- Countermeasures. Once per game, you can disrupt the targeting of an enemy unit, if it is targeting the Ghostkeel’s unit, before dice are rolled. That unit can only make snap shots during that shooting phase…wow!
- The Horus Heresy plastic boxed set is rumored to be coming in early November! Awesome.
- Forge World shows off some previews of upcoming transfer kits for Imperial Fists.

Rules Lawyer
- Peter asks: Do Units that don’t give up VP when destroyed (such as Spore Mines) still generate Blood Tithe when destroyed?
- Yes
- Abysmmal asks: Can you pile in over enemy models with a Jet Bike?
- Yes if you have the movement to allow this with 3″.
- Can the Mephrit Dynasty take relics from the Necron Codex?
- Appears to be yes as they use data slates from the Necron Codex.
- Kurocyn asks: Can I take free upgrades on Fortifications in my War Convocation?
- We’re going to have to go no on this same with no Scout move on it.
- Divings asks: Does a Fortificaiton count as a Detachment in the ITC?
- No, it is a part of a Detachment that has a Fortification slot available to it, such as a CAD.
- Divings also asks about template weapons and strength D attacks: how do you resolve these?
- Act as if they were normal flamers, attacking player chooses when to distribute all non 6 results and 6 results per normal wound allocation.
Completed Commissions
- We recently completed some Imperial Terrain for a client! Check us out for your next painting project.
List Review WE ARE DOUBLING UP TODAY SO SHORT & SWEET
1.Eldar lists for uk tournaments just spam scatpacks to the absolute max (it’s not uncommon to see 50-60 scatbikes and little else over here) and so I wanted to go for something a little more creative and fun to play.
CAD
Autarch – fusion gun, warp jump generator
Farseer- singing spear and spirit stone of anathlan
2 x 3 man scatpacks
1 x 6 Swooping Hawks with exarch
1 x d cannon support battery with warlock
Aspect Host formation
1 x 5 warp spiders with exarch
1 x 5 fire dragons with exarch
Wave serpent
1 x 5 dark reapers with starshot missiles and exarch
Dire avenger shrine
1 x 10 dire avengers with exarch
Wave serpent
2 x 5 dire avengers
The idea behind the list is msu/playing the mission that also packs a bit of punch, without spamming scatpacks as I find that super boring.
The farseer would ride with the 10 man da squad and help to beef up their damage output when they disembark and activate killing strike, and I would reserve the 5 man squads and keep them off the table as long as possible.
Thanks guys!
