    CORRECTIONS:
    - Deceptors Soul Link isn't once per game, it's potentially each command phase if you want it. My error there!
    - Warmasters Gift is critical wounds on a 5+ (I thought hits). Could be ok for a daemon hammer, but not super exciting.
    Let me know if I've missed anything else, I'm sure there'll be a few bits in a book this big.

      I'm a bit confused after seeing the Obliterators slide in your video and reading about the range nerf in the Goonhammer codex review. How can't Obliterators get the melta bonus damage out of deep strike? Deep strike allows a unit to come onto the board within 9" of enemy units which would be half the now 18" range of the Obliterators melta profile. Does this have more to do with a desire to keep Obliterators further back from the enemy lines rather than an actual restriction to getting melta damage out of deep strike?

    The cultist thing is a shame, and it's disappointing they didn't get a reinforcements strategy, since armies that use a lot of suicide units really need them. You can certainly do some interesting things with characters buffing Accursed Cultists, but I have a horrible feeling it'll still work out too pricey to really work.
    I feel like the Lord of Skulls in Soulforged is going to be pretty scary, it's pretty tricky to ignore or screen something with that many guns which will usually be hitting on 2+ if he's got a Warpsmith in tow. The free counter-offensive on Defilers is going to make people sit up and take notice too, it's already something you'd be a bit wary to tangle with in melee but now you've really got to mean it or you're going to get slapped very, very hard.
    The free Overwatch from the Traitor Enforcer if he shoots someone in his own squad gets my vote for most baffling change in the book. It might be quite useful, but it makes sod all sense.

    I think the Red Corsairs detachment is arguably the best. The amount of synergies it has with basically everything within the dex is immense. -3 Warp Talons for one, Reaver's Haste (+1 to charge objective targets). The fact it has it's own armour of contempt. Or Dark Pacted Terminators with a Sorc leading it, -2 bolters essentially, re-rolling hits, re-rolling charges and +1 for Reaver's Haste. Pair that up with 1 or two Reaper Autocannons for -3!

I've had a character model I've been running one as ever since the edition started and I love the secondary buffs it usually gave for chosen bombs.

    Got an email last time when I asked saying this following:
    "Due to Games Workshop sending us a very limited amount of these, sadly they will not be available for pre-order.
    The few we are receiving will be available in-store on the day of release, on a first come/first served basis."

    I do want to add, Predator Destructors in Raiders detachment can have some pretty insane infantry clear ability off objectives. If you take heavy bolters and the main gun, they're hitting infantry at AP-3 on objectives and with assault they can easily get into positions to hit them hard. Onto things like Custodes and terminators in cover you're either forcing CP or just putting them straight on their invulns.
    If you wanted to be really nasty and delete a large unit of marines off an objective you could pair a Termi sorcerer for AP-4 heavy bolters and autocannons xD tell me that doesn't sound like a bit of fun!

    I like a lot of the rules, but I'm still frustrated with the loss of autoguns on cultists. They were still selling the BSF kit last edition and half of my Dark Vengeance cultists are useless. Other wargear changes are also pretty bizarre, the new Chaos Lord is weirdly limited with his options and gets no benefits for picking up the power fist (unlike Gravis Captain who gets extra attacks) and can't take a simple bolt pistol.

      Congrats, your cultists have evolved into Traitor Guard. You still have a datasheet to run those models with. And now Cultists are easier to buy and model for literally everyone who hasnt picked up a horde of them.
      Cultist modeling was in a really weird place, cause they really wanted to run 3x special weapons per 10, but those special weapons weren't actually sold. But for 5 point chaff models, it wasn't worth the effort to bits source and kitbash. Blackstone Cultists were also solid in squads of 7, really awkward to buy for the purpose of tabletop play.

I don't have any desire to need to buy two to three more boxes or second hand bits purchases, after I already bought an overpriced sheet or two of plastic.
      Sorry your kitbashes got squished, but this change makes the tabletop easier to get into for everyone else who wants to buy into Cultists from here on out. With models having a singular pricetag, their points costs are reflecting the optimal loadout of that model. There has been 0 incentive at all to run melee and autopistols compared to autoguns+specials for the entire edition (hell, in this weird pre-codex interm period, massed gun cultists with mark of Tzeentch seems pretty optimal as an army build), and you'd be basically just nerfing your army's capacity by opting into running the melee cultists right out of the box.
      40k is an absurdly hard game to get into, in terms of logistics, artistic skill, army building stratagy, tabletop stratagy, etc. GW doesn't need to make it artificially harder by telling players to pound sand and run a shit loadout if they aren't willing to shell out more money for more kits and bits.

    That dread talons detachment is sad. They could have done some cool stuff with it like if your going to make it a battleshock detachment (which sucks) you could have made the effects at least useful. They could have made some strategems that prevented movement, lowered ballistic or weapon skill and a number of other things that represent fear and terror but instead we get “jump through hoops to get a mediocre effect” that other detachments get for less

    So in Veterans of the Long War - Black Crusade. The weapon has the ability until they have inflicted that many wounds. Lets say you are shooting with terminators, 8 combi bolters. Are you supposed to slow roll each bolter one at a time? because the devastating wounds are allocated after the wound rolls.
    People speed roll by throwing all the bolters together but if they play that way with this strat they can easily 'roll 10+ 6's' before they allocate any wounds, so in that one attack i do think you can exceed 6 devastating wounds, but the question is how many attacks can you roll at once?

      Slightly less so except for two things:
      1) For anything that gets a chaos icon, any boost is worth it, since you're only failing about 13% of the time when you double roll a 6+ leadership test.
      2) That goes up to 36% for single rolls, but for multi wound things like obliterators or vehicles, you won't lose a model. And most ppl like to entirely wipe out units when they target. So your harming self likely doesn't factor into their firepower, in which case it's overkill.
      Ask any faction if they'd take Dark Pacts even with an extra 9-ish% chance of hurting themselves (for the factions with leadership 7).
