Now my tech priest is relevant go power of the machine god.

This is by far my favorite change in 6th, now I just need to find a couple more technical servitors.

I've always wanted to take one, now I may actually do it, maybe with 2 servitors to help him out

Nooooo! A rewrite yes new thread nooo!

Umm, doesn't it just make sense to have someone (deserving) start a new thread? Organizationally speaking, it should be considered almost mandatory. I for one don't wanna search out page YYY to find the start of the relevant 6th ed. material. Don't wanna have to direct new players to this mystery page either.

Anyway, Techpriests do indeed look promising. The new changes to vehicle squadrons also seem great. I love me a good Leman Russ squadron, and now they're so much better!

yup very promising ... in the new squadron rules an imobalised vehicle gets left behind instead of being destroyed, so what happens if a techpriest repairs the imobalised on that vehicle does it count as a seperate unit away from the original squad, or will it have to move act asif it was part of it (fireing at same targets etc)

Interesting you should say this as it was the same argument used to start anew thread for this IG TACTICA. Well I think all that really needs to be done is to upgrade the tome at the front of this thread and "Bob's your uncle" you just tell the new player to go and read it for the basic IG training and concepts. That was Cookie's idea when it was created. So upgrade the TACTICA don't close the thread as there is no need. Hmmm, by the way Welstar have you read the first page of this thread or for that matter do you know the TACTICA exists?

Mate here's the link to the first page, lots of good IG info there. And now of course some what dated!

Nothing like a IG Army is there!

of course you need a new thread. it's not like this one is anything more special then a container of discussion during 5th edition.

not to mention the tactica being seriously out of date too..

So here is a question.. do we use the stats for weapons in our codex or the ones printed in the BRB? I was expecting this to be clarified in the FAQ, but its lacking. Has anyone seen any other differences other than the multi-laser ap change and the addition of flakk rounds?

Also the generic Missile Launcher is the only one I see that had flakk rounds added. I believe that what they intended by saying that some missile launchers get upgradedt AA, is that only certain missile launchers had the option added. So I take the blurb as: all missile launchers of any kind have frag and krak, but only some have flakk.

yay, Techpriests are now worth it now

It's a shame about Hydras though, anly hitting ground units on 6's is a big nerf
so, are Hydras still worth it? or are we better off with a defence line?

I'm also looking at allying my guard with GK, to make an Inqusition list (Inquisitor and retune HQ, GK strike squad troops, and maby a storm raven) what do u think?

Hydras are still worth it, they're just not worth spamming all three HS slots.

...multi-laser ap change... So I take the blurb as: all missile launchers of any kind have frag and krak, but only some have flakk.

Multilaser is the same as it always was. Ap6. Agree on the flakk rounds; we don't have them.

They still hit skimmers on Bs3.


New 6th Edition Tactica is here.

Thanks to ColShaw for setting that up. It's been a good Tactica, but we must keep pace with our foes. If only so we can see what to aim at.

[Colonel Jacka]

Yes we do but it is also a time for a rewrite Cookie. Col Shaw will have to modify his first page in the near future.
