Am disappointed to see that Chaos terminators and Raptors weren't given a basic formation size so as to kill off the issue with variable costing lord characters and make army list building easier, but other than that I'm happy to do some heavy testing. Are unit pictures wanted? |

I believe this is a change that will be made in the future, but wasn't part of this first draft. Quote: Are unit pictures wanted? Pictures for EPIC: Black Crusade would be much appreciated! |

Is it really the intention to only allow stalkers in the retinues? Personally, I'd still just stick with Oblit AA but if you do have stalkers I don't see why the armored companies at least couldn't take one. |

That's why this document is a "beta", to see if anything obvious is missing or out of place! I'll let Steve answer the actual question, though I'll check my notes. |

Not sure on the feral price reduction, keeping AA on the oblits or the factions rule (I'd like to see it go entirely), but I'm mostly in favour of these changes. |

So still AA on Obliterators and Twin Lascannon turet on Chaos Predators? And Invulnerable Saves to Daemon Engines which already have Reinforced Armour? I thought they should have either or not both? Faction rule still there...hm... |

Terminators and Raptors will be addressed before the lsit is finalised Stalker should be available on the Armoured Co as well as the Retinue. |

IMO they were the weakest options as they were and now all non-shielded daemonic/daemon etc units have a consistent Invulnerable save. Predators were not changed as the unit works as they were and there was no widespread view that they needed to change to reflect a minor fluff consideration. There has been discussion ad nauseam on nealry all these issues - hopefully this revision is enough of a compromise to please (or upset) everybody. If you want things to change test it and prove they don't work as they are. |

Quote: (Hena @ Jan. 07 2010, 15:03 ) I think that the faction rule is just pointless change. In BL almost none will notice while LatD will be hurt a lot. There was no need to change it ... How will LatD be hurt a lot? Does the coven change not more than make up for that? Looking froward to the playtests

Well i was told in the relevant thread that it is an either or situation. Before i was enlightened i thought all Daemon Engines have an Invulnerable Save. Regardless if they already have Reinforced Armor or not. Well ilike cionsistency and you are ne Army Champion. If your call is that all Daemon Engines have an Invulnerable Save i won't object

Looks good! I'm afraid that the snow has put a dampener on my gaming this week, but I will certainly give the Black Legion a run next time. I'm glad the Thunderbolts stayed in the LaTD list, the free Daemonic Pacts are welcome and (for entirely selfish reasons admittedly) I can take or leave the factions rule. Although I do think it has essentially split the Lost and the Damned into four pretty starkly. |
