[ And you kind of get the feeling they are not allowed to be critical of anything. I'm all for positive thinking and 'glass half full' but not everything is 'awesome'... Nothing personal about you, just an observation about the local guys. For some reason, all the thinkers seem to have dissappeared...

They were found by the Death Watch on a mission to a Necron tomb world and permitted by the High Lords for use by the Callidus assassins. While it is against the law for a regular Imperial citizen to be in posession of alien technology it's use can be sanctioned by the right bodies like the High Lor...

I never said that you needed Games Workshop or that it was a good idea to close the forums. The thing is that it seems that someone has breached an NDA and leaked information that was not meant for the public. If sites like Druchii.net insist on showing material that they are not meant to have for m...

They are selling bitz packs of things like wings, marine shoulder pads and other random collections.

Well don't let them get charged. That is your responsability as a general to use them properly. Knowing that they are only going to be effective for 1 round on the charge then you have to send them in at a moment when you know you will win like charging a flank or at cavalry who have over run into a...

Noooo.. I love killing blow on executioners, I always get it on characters in a challenge and with my friend playing dwarfs they only wound on 3's and he passes all the bloody saves (unless he uses Iron breakers in which case he has appaling luck lol).

The only unit you are really likely to chage and get no attacks against are Sword masters and spear elves if you are unlucky. ASF does not auto kill your front rank and with sword masters being so expensive they will likely be in small units. This means that we can either shoot of flank them and sti...

I just posted this on Warseer but the argument it the same so heres my 2 cents. I personally hate the very idea of Spite. My friend calls it improved death because for all your extra attacks for this rule to work your models still have to die. This is a major problem because with an army like Dark E...

@ Danceman- the entire idea of wounding a Tank with a sword is rediculous but an executioner does so on a 5+, people should stop using the, "*insert weapon* would not work" excuse as almost nothing would have an effect in that case. Are you going to make a case for Heartseeker not working ...

And you are ignoring that it is a special rule that does not effect manbane. It is in a section of the rulebook for rules that only effect that units that have them. Manbane not a poisoned attack so is not effected.

The problem is that Manbane is 6th Ed while the Steam Tank (wasnt affected by manbane in 6th) got updated in the 7th Ed empire book. Difference of edition makes it messy, as usual. No it is 2 compleatly different rules sets. Alot of things that didn't work against a previous edition of a units rule...

Only if a Special Rule (which is a rule that applies only to units that have those rules) is brought to bear.

No that is not what I said at all. War Machines are only immune to the "Poisoned Attacks" special rule on pg 95-96 of the rule book. Manebane does not use those rules.

NO a poison is not a poison otherwise I would auto-wound on 6's as that is the rules for poisoned attacks . Manbane does not follow those rules so it can wound the warmachine. Listen carefully.

Yes it is a poison. But it does not follow the rules for poison attacks . The description of a warmachine and the Steam Tank say nothing about poisons.

@ Lord of the Morning - That is simply a piece of information about who most uses poisons and that would be skinks and Witch Elves i.e. Adepts of Khaine. It does not state or prove in any way that manbane counts as a poison. If it did then it would get all of the other poison rules as well.
