Do you even roll separately if they're embarked?

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Mission special rules, Reserves, page 94 in my rulebook:
"player must specify if any transport vehicle in reserve is carrying any of the infantry units and/or independent characters in reserve. If they do, the unit and the transport will be rolled for together and will arrive together."
So, as I'm reading it, they are still separate units, but they roll together and arrive together, so no Snikrot stuff, but Scouts can come with Speeders."Don't make me go all Darth Vader on your teddy." - BBEG of the month

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
If the company command squad is actually using that Power Weapon, then something has gone horribly, horribly wrong. That gives enough points to, assuming you're going to be using combined squads, gives Voxes to both platoons.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
I'm wondering- with Citadel Finecast, is it likely that GW will redo some of their old games, with Finecast models?
Epic Armageddon, Battlefleet Gothic, and so on?
I'd really like to see a more combined gaming system- maybe tying the Aeronautica & Epic rules together, perhaps focusing on starfighter-to-ground attacks as well.Marut-2 Avatar by Serpentine

Maybe. Still, the Aeronautica rules aren't ridiculously complex.
And the models use the same scale.Marut-2 Avatar by Serpentine

Rogue Trader and it's cousins seem to be heading that way though- rules for everything from individual soldiers to capital ships.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
When we are on the subject, how would you treat outflanking Chaos Chosen in a Rhino? Because I heard arguments against it by people who list Scouts and Speeders as proof that both the vehicle and unit must be able to Outflank. I don't get the idea of that, because outflanking is special reserve move that can be done by any unit with Scout or Infiltrate, and their dedicated transport. But not by any other transport (Land raider, in this case).

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Can Chaos Chosen take a Rhino as a dedicated transport? If so, they may outflank with it, as long as they're embarked in it. The rules are quite clear on this.
Also, if a transport vehicle has Scout or Infiltrate, it can outflank with troops embarked, even if the transported unit doesn't have either rule.Last edited by Renegade Paladin; 2011-09-02 at 09:21 AM.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Given that Forgeworld does quite a few BFG models, as well as a handful of Epic and Aeronautica, outlook not so good.
Aeronautica is at the same scale of Epic though, so that's possible.
GW really, really wants us to forget Squats exist/ed.
If we get Space Dwarves again, it'll be in the form of Tau Auxilliary Demiurg, who may well be in Finecast, once the Tau codex gets done.I am the golden shadow. I am the Ninja Chocobo

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
To the Warp with that; if they expect us to believe that the Tyranids somehow managed to get every single member of an abhuman race that was highly technologically advanced and, this is the important part, plied the stars in great numbers at long distances, they need to rethink their method of wiping out the Squats.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
I was kinda hoping Finecast was a symptom that GW would be making more use of stuff that was Forgeworld-only- since they're both resin- maybe stuff that was Forgeworld becomes Finecast.
Quite apart from the fact that Squat Space was the galactic core- and none of the Hive Fleets have gotten that far into the galaxy.Last edited by hamishspence; 2011-09-02 at 09:59 AM.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
I never really understood why they dont let you talk about squats. It doesn't seem to make sense at all. Sure they are not in the game anymore but couldnt you still talk about them? Fluffwise the squats were eaten by tyranids weren't they?
Also I was talking to a gw employee about chapter companies and legion sizes, anyway, I mentioned the space wolves 13th company and they were like "Shhh... We don't talk about them". Lol why not? Wulfen were awesome back in the day.
Other fun stuff that I learnt today is that mechanising is amazing! Especially with blood angels. Baal predators rock as well. They really do cut down the enemy.Lillien Lemmerin:http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheetvie...sheetid=111721

There's rules for nukes in Battlefleet Koronus. And it mentions a single nuke can destroy one hive spire.
It also discusses using armies, and bombarding them with lance or battery salvoes.Marut-2 Avatar by Serpentine

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Judging from how Warhammer's entire universe is out to kill every other part, and that the squats don't really need to be entirely wiped out, just rendered incapable of fighting, their retcon wouldn't be that hard to pull off.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h67JpMyrOVE
"It is human nature to seek culpability in times of tragedy. It is a sign of strength to cry out against fate, rather than to bow one's head and succumb. Inevitably many shall fault the hands on the sword which felled the Squats... The Games Workshop. But GW merely performs the charge of a buisness. To further be annoyed by them is redundant. To boycott them, stupid."
"Those more sensible will place fault on those who forced the hand of the Games Workshop. With some fortune, they may foster their mourning into purpose, and further rule their finances by selling their squats as collector's items on Ebay."
"Yet ultimately, it was you and I who set these events into motion... With a single choice to not buy squats."
May they be remembered fondly.Hate me if you want. But that's your issue to fix, not mine.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Yeah, I am well aware of that, but there were some people back there, and their argument was: "Well, in SM codex only Scouts can outflank anyways, and Speeders have Scout too, so it makes sense that they errata'd that only if both of them have the same rule then they can outflank." I was baffled.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Though I just about remember Squats first-hand, I have a close friend who really DOES remember "The Good Old Days" and has recalled them in a way that has confirmed for me what were once just personal suspicions, and please believe me when I say sincerely that I'm not just trying to start a controversy or flame the place up in any way.....
But.
Everything - from their rules to their models and everything in between - left only one thing clear: The Squats deserved to die in the worst way imaginable. Ending up as Termagaunt excrement was too good for them.~ CAUTION: May Contain Weasels ~
