With the release of Armada, the FAQ will be redone over the next couple of days.
First - Armada, the Blue Book and the 2002 Annual are now the primary reference sources. Other than posted on this page or from Matt Keefe, the lead BFG developer, all printed rules are in those 3 sources. When the Specialist page is redone, SG may add rules there as well as in Fanatic Magazine.
Armada Errata -
Imperial
page 27&28 - The Apocalypse BB is 365 points
Page 28 - Avenger Class GC should be 220.
Page 32 - "Docking" States massed Turret rules found on Page 158. - they aren't in Armada
Tau
Page 101; Bor'Kan configuration Explorer.
Prow Gravitic Launchers, fire arc "-" should be Front.
General Vessels
Q-Ships
Page 160 Q-ship has 1 Shield, should be 2 as in the 2002 Annual
Page 136 - Forces, "The rules for Heavy Transports on page ??" should be page 160.
Tyranids
Page 87, the arc for port/starboard batteries and/or bio-plasma in the Hive Ship stats should be Left/Right.
Page 88 - The Cruiser may be equipped only with boarding torpedoes, massive claws or feeder tentacles as prow weapons. The fleet list on page 91 does show the correct weapons choices.
Dark Eldar
Dark Eldar ships may "ride the flare" following the same rules as those applicable for the Eldar.(applies for all shadowfield/holofield vessels)
Page 56 - The cost of the Dark Eldar Torture class is 210, not 130.
Page 58 - Since the Dark Eldar Torture class does not come with torpedoes, the phrase on the fleet list should read "Torture Class Cruisers may add one of the following weapons configurations for the points shown:".
Space Marines
Page 22 Space Marine Battle Barge: Should read Cannot use Come To New Heading special order.
Orks
p.60 Cost for Boarding torpedoes and Torpedo Bommerz should be +15pt for Boarding torps and +160pt for Torpedo Bommerz.
p.63 Cost for Boarding torpedoes should be +5pt on all other Roks and A'mmers.
p.64 Change cost for Dethdeala Torpedo Bommerz to +40pt.
p.65 Change cost for Gorbag’s Revenge Torpedo Bommerz to +80pt. It should be based on the maximum possible launch roll (3+1+2+2=8).
p.66 Change cost for Slamblasta Torpedo Bommerz to +40pt.
p.67 Change cost for Kroolboy Torpedo Bommerz to +40pt.
p.68 Change cost for Hammer Torpedo Bommerz to +40.
p.69 Under Ordnance. Add Hammer to those allowed boarding torpedoes. Also, the ordnance limit for Orks is based on the maximum possible launch capacity (ie as if all dice rolled were maxima).
p.158 - This means Terror ships would be +40 for torpedo bomberz

A Note on the Endeavour class and model availability:
The Endeavour class light cruisers and their variants, the Endurance and Defiant class light cruisers, are not in production. The model kept destroying molds and will not be produced with the Armageddom prow. At some point, these vessels will be produced but with a more mold friendly bow.
That said, Mod-Hawkeye (Nate) has had a conversation with Tony Cottrell of Forgeworld and Tony did indicate that Forgeworld will produce these ships (no set date) along with variant bows and bridges for scratchbuilders and kit bashers.

The FAQ's -

Eldar Holofields - Save against any and all directed attacks except for weapons batteries. This includes lances, nova cannons(one save for the whole NC shot), torpedoes, bombers, assault boats, teleport attacks, boarding and ramming. All ordnance attacks are subject to the holofield save including bombs, torpedoes, assault boats and mines. Eldar holofields do not protect against natural phenomena such as solar flares or the results of ships exploding.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Escort VP rule - escort squadrons count, for VP purposes, as a single entity in that losses under 50% incur no VP's, losses of 50% or greater but less than 100% incur a 25% VP loss (as with crippled for a capital ship), and losses of all the squadron incur the full cost of the squadron as lost VP's. If any escort in a squadron disengages either through the disengagement rules or by leaving the table, all escorts in that squadron are immediately removed and are conmsidered disengaged.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Brace For Impact (additional clarification) - You may use the Brace for Impact special order to reduce the effect of Hit & Run attacks.
Note - In all respects, Brace for Impact replaces any other special order and as such, is the only special order that can be put into effect in the other players turn.
