Its not funny, its in the FAQ. Invo saves from either the warding stave or the sword improved save may be used against perils suffered whilst in close combat.

Thought that might have been the case, it's not exactly intuitive but it does help explain why the things are so damn expensive. -------------------- I got 99 problems but people mislabeling pro-painted lots on ebay ain't one.

Going back to psyammo.. what I'd recommend is taking psyammo on all troops (it really is worth it if you're running strikes, combat squadding (and avoiding combat) and putting basically 5x guys with both cannons in the rhino, and 5x on foot.
The extra 10x str 5 shots per unit is great from 24 inches, and keeping in mind that you aren't running the strongest list, vs similar lists they aren't that easy to remove. -------------------- ------- 6th ed tournament track 2012-13

Bahaha... you 40k guys are coming up with some funny rules ideas these days. Explain to me how a perils save is a "close combat attack" To be clear i ment perils while in combat, I could be wrong but I belive the +1 save for the sword states when in combat, not from a close combat attack. Will happily stand corrected. edit: opps didnt see the next page This post has been edited by ru486baby: Jun 8 2012, 12:13 PM -------------------- |

but where to find the points?? I'm just guesstimating, but I would suggest remove a terminator (squad of 5 instead of 6), take psyammo off the terminators, and you could easily afford 2x strike squads with psyammo. If you drop the radgrenade and slightly fiddled, you could take 3x At least dropping from termies and moving it to strikes would be a better option I think (more guns, ss are doing more shooting/less combat etc) -------------------- ------- 6th ed tournament track 2012-13
