  1. For king of the hill and imperial knights. 1 Knight scores the single point, but they cannot get the double point on turn 2 plus? Or should it read two Knights on the center scores two points? I think it should.

  2. The Marked for death change is gonna lead to a significant point increase in Night Spinners (calling it). On the other hand, it gives me a reason to take Starcannons on wraithlords and falcons, though I can see crafters lists that consist of mostly t7/8 models and able to make marked for death and BB very difficult possibly being “too good” with the marine nerf.

  3. This might be a typo, but it appears that the engineers secondary says in one section you need to have 2 units hold the same objectives to score a secondary point. But later it says if you hold 2 separate objectives, you can score 2pts. But there are only 2 engineer units total.

    “Starting from Battle Round 2, if one or more of these units starts and ends your turn within 3” of the **same objective marker** you control…” and then later is says, “If you have two Engineer units performing this role on **two separate objectives** and one or more of the objectives is outside of your deployment zone, earn 2pts.”

    It seems like it takes 2 units to hold 1 objective, but later you can hold 2 objectives with 2 units for 2 points.

    I might be reading that wrong, but I just thought I would bring it up.

    1. It’s start and end your turn within 3″ of the same objective, I think it’s to stop units with teleport abilities, high movement etc starting the turn on one objective and move to another and still getting engineers

  4. Regarding Recon and Sappers secondary where it specifies objectives outside a deployment zone, do you mean just the actual objective marker must be out, or the marker and its 3″ aura/bubble? Cause it would be possible for a marker to be outside of the deployment zone, yet still able to grab it from within during deployment.

  5. There was a time where not long ago when the community actually got to vote on itc changes

    Now those decisions are made behind closed doors
    Do TOs talk to every single participant at their events to able to speak for all players

    1. It’s too big now to do it the old way.

      The idea is that the TOs are your representatives. It’s vastly easier to get things done with a smaller group of just over 400 than a behemoth of 14,000+ people for 40k alone.

      Speak to your regional rep to express your ideas and concerns, or to your local TO. If they aren’t in the group currently, encourage them to join.

      1. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

        You can’t expect to wield supreme executive power just ’cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!

        Help help I’m being repressed!

        *sorry couldn’t resist

  6. The way it reads at the moment, you can stack big game hunter with other seek and destroy secondaries, provided you cause the killing blow with a different unit (or the same unit on a different turn).

    Is this intentional? Or does the phrase “by the same unit on the same target” need a little tweak?

    Eg. Unit one causes 20 wounds to a knight that is also a character and counts these for big game hunter, then unit 2 causes 4 wounds and kills it and counts the kill for headhunter.

    Thanks

  7. Does this mean measurement of scoring objectives is no longer to the edge of the marker? I know this is/was the norm and it was written down, but it is not stated anywhere nor the size of a marker?

    Honestly, I just want to buy 6″ neoprene markers and use them for all rulesets. 😉
