Man, GW has been fairly on point lately with the FAQ releases. And these ones actually say "Official Update" and "Warhammer 40,000 Errata" on them, so people can't argue that they're optional house rules. Well played sirs.

Loving the tyranid FAQ. Seems they ruled in the Common Sense factor when updating it. Mawloc, Doom, Tyrants in guard groups, all makes sense to how it was worded and how it should have been played.

Thanks for the update. Looks like we were all about 50% on these questions.
They took a real bite out of the lash whips. Makes the librarian Ini 10 power more useful against them.
Wish the Tyranid one was easier to read, they seen to have a font issue.

Indeed, common sense rules here. I'm not happy about the nerfs to Spore Pods and Hive Commander though. Time to reconsider my Mycetic spore army  |

Q: Does Shadow in the Warp affect psykers who are
taking a Psychic test whilst embarked within a
transport vehicle?
A: No.
this is crap.
So a psychic hood should no effect if it is located inside a tank.
or a eldard casting Fortune inside a wave serpent and a quy outside with a psychic hood can not stop it.
they went to far nerfing the Doom!!!

Yeah. Its seems like they did it to be consistent within the codex, but it is silly considering other abilities across the entire spectrum of the game. |

Not to mention nids now have the only IC's that can't join units in dedicated transports.
And the only dedicated transports in the game that can't be deployed empty.

finally they nerfed doom, a stupid unbalanced character  i dont agree with the change in shadow in the warp..it doesnt correlate with anything else in the game along the same lines, like jay noted, like pschic hoods |

It's not a nerf to Doom, he works just like he always has. Anybody who thought you could affect models in transports is a muppet.
Shadow nerf is lame, Spore nerf is lame, Hive Commander nerf is lame. I was gonna do a drop nid army, but I don't see much incentive any more.

What does that say about psychic hoods? |
