I spoke with my FLGS guy who talked to the GW rep this morning. Not all of my
questions were answered, but here is what I heard that is not something already
all over the internet. This assumes the GW rep had his facts straight, and the
FLGS guy relayed them correctly via the game of
telephone.
Battle
Brothers
Eldar/DE
Chaos/Daemons
All Imperium
All
others were convenience, desperate or apocalypse.
No answer as to whether
you can join units of battle brothers.
Psychic
Phase
Roll a D6 and add the total mastery levels of all your
psykers. You get that many power dice and your opponent gets that many DTW
dice.
To cast a power, you need to roll a 4+ for every warp charge of the
power you're using. So warp charge 2 = two 4+, meaning you'd need 4 power dice
to have an average shot.
Your opponent dispels the power with a roll of a
6 on their dice. So the more dice they have, the more shots they get at rolling
that 6 to cancel out that critical power. I was told that the mastery level of
the psyker dispelling the power lowers the roll needed to dispel it. So a ML2
psyker dispels on a 5+, ML3 on a 4+. etc...
That is what I was
told.
That seems wrong to me because Fateweaver, Eldrad and Ahriman could
dispel anything on a 3+. More likely, I would think you compare mastery levels
between the casting psyker and the dispelling psyker, and apply a bonus that
way. This is conjecture. What I wrote above is what I was told.
What I
also don't know is if there is a dice limit a psyker can use to cast or dispel a
power based on their mastery level. I also don't know if you need two 6's to
dispel a ML2 power. I assume you do.
You would figure Adamantium Will
would give you +1 to DTW for powers cast at a unit with that
rule.
Jink Save
Jink is a 4+,
however it is no longer always on. You must declare a jink to claim it, and if
you do so, it's snapshots only in the next phase.
Sweeping Advance
Unchanged. You do not
consolidate into a new combat.
Malefic Powers
Just leaked on 4chan (Bild im Blog!!!)
And that's all
I got that's new! So you can go runtelldat.
