no.

Damnit, thank you though. I suppose converting warriors and wracks now won't be too hard seeing as they're both plastic

Are wracks the same as before? Points? Stats? Special equipment? Min squad size?

Scorpion- what is the cost for a klaivex and did his weapons or stats change?

the same stats, yes. minimum size 5. 10p. 15 p for LG, 15p for Ossefactor. Acothyst 10p. Acothyst can get Mindphase gauntlet, Flesh G, Sciccorhand, Venom blade, Electro whip. Agoniser, Stinger Hexrifle, LG.

Hexrifle is ok now, Sniper, AP4, Precision shot gives ID. So it becomes AP2, ID when that 6 to hit is rolled. thats not bad for 10p.

So Wracks don't get power mauls?

I cannot find answer for this (though somebody has already asked)

Which unit does get the effect of Power from Pain?

Do you people bother reading the thread? Literally half of these questions have been answered more than once.

It's really disrespectful to have one person repeating the same thing over and over again. Take the time to read, just like he's taking the time to write out the book for you.

Anyways, my question:
Can the Succubus take the Huskblade? The HB is rumored at 25 points, confirm?

Master of Mandrakes Posts : 254 Join date : 2012-07-31

One thing that strikes me is that there is not a single thing in the army that cause pinning. Pinned is liked going to ground, right? It would make sense since we cant get assault grenades.

Thank you...
1. No, only archon
2. 25 p, confirmed.

Most armies updated to 7th lost access to pinning, even the sniper rule lost it. Is sad.

The rumor I heard was that sslyth are now 25 points... true or are they 35 still?
(You said they were the same as before, wasn't sure if that referred to point cost too.)

I would also like to know the answer to these questions.

And one of my own if that is okay: Are raiders/venoms etc available in the fast attack choices?

Thank you!

TY! Does the court work the same as before? Slotless if you take an Archon? Can you get them without an Archon?

Also.. scorpion deserves a special title for this! Lord of information? Spy master? All seeing eye or some such!

Slave Posts : 6 Join date : 2011-06-15

Hey Scorpion, thanks for taking the time to answer all this!!

Quick question i haven't seen yet; Do the DE still have Night Vision?

pinning is good in theory but meh otherwise, cus half game fearless and like third is high LD which will rarely fail the test, the new stuff would help tho
and yeah thx for all the espionage, if nothing else right to slaughter some puppies and a Hive word :3 for him

Thank you. The things I had to do to get the book! Not even my mother would forgive.... lol. No need for title though, I know how it feels to just sit and wait for a codex and reading all the rumours. I just wanted to share the codex with you guys. You have helped me with strategies and lists so this is me giving back. :-)
