i agree with you though because of the heresy the creation of the inquisition puts them above the space marines rank wise to over see that the taint of chaos would not rise again in the imperialist society they have going, but i don't think the space marines see in that way and they consider them selves above them. this must cause a lot of rivalry between the two organizations. who knows they might even declare a war over each other...

I'd remind the defender that yes, while you can fill your tournament table with bunkers... oh, wait, you can't. People seem to forget that this would be a tournament - wouldn't work that way.

I think the best thing about this whole thing is the terrain. It is very impressive and affordable. It's nice to see gw put out some nice terrain in the lower price ranges.
I'm look forward to trying out the game itself next week with my friends.

for me its a waste of money, and I don't feel like investing more in my army to get the army needed to attack.

You evidently missed the part of the Sisters being outright ignored all 5th edition.

You know, third largest armed force in the imperium, had a 2nd ed codex, no plastic minis.... you know the girls.

Now find me where their WD articles, Apoc datasheets, four page spread within the 5th edition rulebook and simple acknowledgment are all hiding.

Yes, they can use Imperial Stratagems. So can the Imps and Marines.
But where are THEIR OWN stratagems? I’m sorry, I can’t quite find them, could you help?

Will have a read of that short story.

Tis my gf who's a geek for the history and she's a speed reader so pretty much finishs each book within 2 days of buying it while I'm still lumbering at a snails pace through the first one.

Thanks!

Open the book known as Codex Witch Hunters to the very very first page. You know, the one after the front cover.

Read the top line.

It says "Second Book of the Inquisition"

The Inquisition is the Imperium.

Least....last time I looked it was.

However...I'm sure everyone will agree with you that the Sisters of Battle aren't part of the Imperium and thus DON'T get the stratagems that are for the Imperium in Planetstrike.

But no...seriously...they aren't part of the imperium...course not....could never be...no wait...bugger...here is it...page 120 of the rule book...last sentence:

"Sisters of Battle rank amongst the Imperium's most trusted defenders"

Hmmmm...I guess they are part of the Imperium and thus CAN use the Imperium Stratagems.

So an army with boobies for teens to drool over?

Sisters of Battle = menopause + chastity for life + pent up sexual frustration

Re: 40K REVIEW: Planetstrike

Kettu — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 09:31:32 -0000

And the Sisters of Battle? Where are their Stratagems?
The Sisters are not the Inquisition and quite frankly, Deserve their own material. Games Workshop seems to be honestly going well out of their way just to ignore them.

Don't remember and I'm pretty tired after my night shift so I might be mixing something up. Go check B&C if you want, or maybe Google. Oh, and there was something about the books being more GK and SoB centric - but don't quote me on that.

BTW, if there wasn't any "AND", no one would talk about combining anything.

aye mate but they are apocalypse units :)
I can see your confusion though but that would make for some awesome games!

if you look in the planetstrike book, or the latest white dwarf there are stompas used in planetstrike games. hence why i am asking.

I just finished "The Voice" last night, which is the short story in Tales of Heresy about the Sisters of Silence.

I also read up on them on Lexicanum, and the Sisters of Silence were presumed to have died when the Webway gate beneath the Golden Throne started spewing daemons unto Terra.

I watched two guys playing (I'd guess late teens early 20's) playing the other day. They had to stop their game and look stuff up several times... every time they did they had to house rules it because the rules in the book were to confusing for them.

The biggy was, SURPRISE, can daemons assault.

So yes, I speak English but I do feel that an English Dictionary without an E section and misspellings is a useless product.

Yeah, it is clarified in the Planetstrike book that models inside can be placed on top and fire from the building but if they do that it pretty much counts as open-topped (they said you get +1 on damage chart which is the same thing). They clarify that you can't shoot the models that are there.

Unfortuanatly, I have to disagree with him on the dual level Bastion theory. For me, it's just a mother of a Bastion with 2 levels and lots of guns but following the rules for a normal Bastion in terms of people inside, etc.

Conrad — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 13:28:10 -0000

Thanks. I was exaggerating a bit but it was to get the point across that the Inquisition can use the Imperium Stratagems

You get the point anyways.

o.O

Jump Infantry get the Deep Strike rule in the main rule book don't they?

Or did I miss something when I read that section of the book?
