I have to reference a FAQ of the GT. I plan on using: Independent National Warhammer 40,000 Tournament FAQ v2.1 How do people well about some of these rules. www.bolscon.com/especially the rules on the new guard list |

How will comp be judged?
Edit: Will it be just sportsmanship like BOLSCON?

No, we Will have our own comp, painting system. I have not work out that out 100% yet. I was referring to Bolscon for there FAQ for the guard army. I wanted to get someones opinion on it. I plan on using this FAQ 40kradio.com/worldwidewar/wp-content/uploads/INATFAQv2.2 except for the questions concerning the new guard codex. BOLSCON is the only FAQ i have seen concerning the new codex. There are not to many questions concerning the codex by it's self, but how does the codex fit into the deamonhunters or witch hunters codex's. For example, He are some of the rules from thier FAQ. I am not saying i am agreeing or disagreeing with any of them. : Can an Inducted Guard Platoon Command Squad include Commander Chenkov? Captain Al-Rahem? A: Yes. Yes. Q: Can an Inducted Guard Rough Riders Squad include Mogul Kamir? A: Yes. Q: Can an Inducted Guard Infantry Platoon include 0-5 Heavy Weapons Squads, 0-2 Special Weapons Squads and 0-1 Conscript Squads? A: Yes. Q: Which Inducted Guard Sentinels can I use? Scout Sentinels? Armored Sentinels? Both? A: Scout Sentinels only. Q: How does the Leman Russ Squadron work with Inducted Guard? Do I get 1 or 1-3 tanks? Do I get the variants? A: You get one Leman Russ Squadron. |

Hey,
These are just my intrepretation's on there FAQ;
General Questions;
Q: What is the size of an objective?
A: An objective can be any size between 25mm and 60mm and has infinite height. To determine if a unit is contesting or scoring measure the distance from the outside edge of the objective.
I Disagree with this in just 1 way I think it should be measured from the center point of the objective, only becuase it can give a slight advantage/disadvantage to someone. I have 2 sets of objectives when I go to a tourney now depending on this rule.
Q: For oddly shaped vehicles (e.g. tau piranhas) how do I determine the front/side/rear arc?
A: Ignore any wings or projections, just consider the basic frame. If there is still a question, call a judge
I always thought it should be the furtherest most points on the vehicle drawn to the center point.
Orks
Q: Can Ork Trukks ram other vehicles?
A: No.
Why not?
Tau
Q: Does a Tau Crisis Suit with an Ejection System count as 1 or 2 KPs?
A: It counts as 2 kill points.
I see where they are coming from on this ruling but it should only count as 1 KP.
Eldar
Q: Can an Eldar tank with Star Engines ram twice; once in the movement phase and once in the shooting phase using Star Engines?
A: Yes, it can perform two Rams or two Tank Shocks.
Again, I can see where they are coming from but I don't think it should
DH or WH
As far as all of there ally rules I think the rules from the 'ArdBoyz should be used, they are about as official you are going to get from GW for the foreseeable future. (Basically no special character's and allied units can not use valk's or vendetta's)
Guard
Q: Is Weaken Resolve a psychic shooting attack? Does it require line of sight? How long does the Weaken Resolve effect last? Can a Psyker Battle Squad shoot their Laspistols on the same turn they use Weaken Resolve?
A: No. Yes. Weaken Resolve lasts for the remainder of the Guard player turn. Subject to the normal rules for shooting, the squad can fire its Laspistols at any target in range, not only the unit it used the Weaken Resolve power on.
The only thing I disagree with is Weaken Resolve lasting the Guard player's turn, it should last the whole turn (who ever goes first and second)
Q: When Al'Rahem's Infantry Platoon outflanks, how do they enter play?
A: When the single roll for the Platoon indicates they enter play, each unit within the Platoon rolls individually to determine upon which board edge they outflank.
The reserve roll is for the whole unit they should all come on the same side, plus this is time consuming if its a large platoon

.Q: Can Ork Trukks ram other vehicles? A: No. Why not?Ramming is a type of tank shock, if you cant tank shock (because your not a tank.) you cant ram either. |

Makes sense! Don't play my orks very often and I don't think I've rammed with them  Another thing to clearify is if a valk or vend can contest an objective on the ground. This has been up in the air and I have seen it played both ways. I think that it should be able to. |

Yeah I looked into that no tank shocking/ramming thing for orks and its true UNLESS you buy your trukks a ram. Then you can ram/tank shock.
Pg 69 (huh huh) last paragraph on the page. Its legal provided they suffer 'destroyed - explodes!' result.
