Jaws and 6th Edition Unit Types

[Thanatos_elNyx]

So...
We can agree that Jetbikes are not Bikes in 6th Edition.
We can agree that RAW (from Codex and BRB) Jetbikes are immune to Jaws.
We can agree that the FAQs are poor, and the SW FAQ is out-of-date in this regard
(i.e. It literally doesn't make sense, in 6th, to call Jetbikes a sub-category of Bikes).

But you would still enforce this in a game?

Okay.

my god, it does effect jump infantry. it's in the rulebook on the unit type. heres an extract. "Jump units are equipped with jump packs, wings, teleport devices or other means of moving quickly over short distances.Unlike most other unit type categories, 'jump' is not a classification in and of itself. Instead, you'll find it occurs before
another category - commonly Infantry, sometimes Monstrous Creatures and perhaps, rarely, other things. jump units
therefore share two sets of rules, the Jump unit rules, and those of their base type. Jump Infantry would, for example,
follow the rules for Jump units and Infantry." so it follows the rules of infantry ergo can be *********** hit.

I feel sorry for all those I2 Tau Battlesuits.

This was basically the first thing I read about when I read the Tau codex at the weekend. Riptides can be affected by the power, and are I2. Sad panda.

Riptides are at least MCs so get the +1 bonus.

Went to a tournament this weekend. My rune priest on bike's jaws kills were:

- Gazghull
- 0 meganobz, despite spamming or at them all game.
- a tervigon, before it spawned anything.
- a destroyer lord wit sempiternal weave and mss. A wraith or two as well I think.
- another of the same exact destroyer lord in the next necron army I met.
- an overlord.
- one nurgle obliterator.

Hurrah for jaws working on ******* wraiths and destroyer lords! Sad necrons? Happy everyone else!
