If you were writing the Grey Knights FAQ what questions would you make sure were answered?

How henchmen work.
i.e. If I make them into troops (with the special character), can I get
1) an infinite number of them as troops or limit 6 as troops?
2) do they count as my 2+ troop selections?

(I'd put together an =I= army using Grey Knights if these questions got answered)

NDKs' rules with personal Teliporter

Servo Skulls and Orbital Strike Relay blasts do work togeather oficially

The view of weather or not two Daemon swords count as the same weapon



Storm Ravens as a dedicated transport! :P

Re wording of Henchmen Question:

Do henchmen squads taken as troop choices fill Force Org slots?
If I take Inq. Coteaz can I still take one Henchmen squad for each Inquisitor that does not fill a Force Org slot.

A PDF with the actual rules in.

I was going to start a Knights army. Then, I saw how many rules issues there was, and was so sick and tired of them that I didn't get past the first unit.

Why are these two points up for discussion. I apologise if I have missed something but I fail to see why any one would assume that the FOC goes out the window. Of course you are limited to 6 and yes they count as your 2+ troops choices.

I do not see the ambiguity.

I'd like them to clarify the Interceptors unit status. They are listed as infantry. Therefore, they take up one point of transport capacity in a Stormraven. Under the description for personal teleporters it states that units with these items are jump infantry. Therefore, the interceptors take up two points of transport capacity in a Stormraven.
I believe they are infantry due to the small size of their 'personal' teleporters and that is how they are listed in the codex. Not everyone agrees with me though.

The Dreadknight's Rules with the DCCW(does it double his strength, to a max of 10?) and the Teleporter (if he takes it, does his MC status change to JI?)need to be officially clarified,
and do Falachions give +1 or +2 attacks?. Henchmen FOC question(as stated above), and the Servo Skullz question that someone else stated above, dealing with the Relay.:)

Yes, Falchions. Good one.

The phrase "This unit does not use up a force organization slot" is the source of the ambiguity.

the ordo xenos crystal thing

ok plama guns cannons and pistols

star cannons ok i can see this

tau weapons well thats most of their guns?

disintegrator cannon matter from a anti sun is it plasma or anti plasma?

third edition did away with this sort of thing. I remember the virus grenade that could wipe out entire armies but was not taken as it had a list of immune things as long as your arm.

Clarrifying whether Dreadnoughts are scoring when using the Grand Strategy rule since they are vehicles.

Some of these are pretty easy to answer.

1. Doubles strength, as was said on what's new today.
2. He stays a MC. This is one of those "Punch-the-person-hard-who-tries-to-argue-otherwise" rules.
3. It's 2 identical close combat weapons, so +1. It also has a rule that if you take 2, you get +1. 1+1=2! Seriously, IT'S IN THE ******* RULES!
