GW released the 6th faq for the main book.
Aegis lines must be an unbroken chain.
They also faqed my linebreaker question. The base of the model must be fully in.
Looks like all look out sir wounds are now passed to the closest model rather than one within 6 inches

Cool... answered my biggest blood angel questions.
Dante and Astorath now have ap2 initiative 1 weapons... cool.
Sanguinary Guard with axes are treated as axes, just master crafted. also cool.

Interesting stuff.
Nobs and Wold Guard are only characters when leading other units. Paladins lose character status.
FMC's can skyfire now^^
No Death Rays against flyers.
No wound overflow from challenges.
Grounded FMC's do indeed count as gliding.

no death rays against fliers REALLY cripples the necron air force...
basically any race that can field fliers now can deal with them then. Of course, you'll have to field more fliers than you normally would, but I would put money on 3 storm ravens vs 5-6 of those necron transports. the death rays are what tipped it in the necron's favor, being able to pretty much instant-kill a flier.

Glad they changed the ruling on Astoroth and Dante, it was pretty lame that Kharne got nerfed to hell and they didnt in the first place.
Also death ray nerf definitely needed, looks like Vendettas are top of the food chain again. Although even with the nerf to death rays necrons as a whole are probably still top dog..who needs flyers when you have that much gauss anyway?

I mean, you already can't pick characters out in hand to hand anyway, and in challenges, anyone who is AP2 is normally going to be striking last anyway, so astorath will still almost always get his swings in. if its something cheap like a tac sergeant you can always just refuse the challenge or answer it with your own cheapo sarge. |

Did you see that FMCs can be shot down by markerlights? Turns out those markerlights have lascannons on them for Flyrants.

Nah, the tyrant recognizes that he's being targeted, so he makes a strategic withdrawal to the ground for cover.
