So various of us want to use IA in tournaments. But obviously there is going to be problems with just allowing all IA without some sort of controls.

So how about we come up with a list of units that are ok to use?
Pin it up the top of the 40k section and then TOs can just put a line in their player packs referring to it (eg: IA units from WAU approved list allowed).

Surely between all of us we can come up with a good selection of stuff that won't break the game any worse than the allies rules wink.gif

How about any IA with the 40K approved stamp?

Maybe Just give 8th edition 6 months first before we even think about IA.

I was just going to use my IA models as counts as.. For example Decimator as a dready.. It just looks so nice. As well as my two Nurgle dreads (now they only focus-fire in a 45 degree arc) and the Plague Hulk as a defiler.. I only see them as a great way to have better looking models.

Ashmantle should be allowed now. I assume only 3hp so will go down easily now with simple glancing hits.

Heresy! We must come up with our own, convoluted methods of doing things.

You're asking WAU to come to a consensus? Ok I'll get right on that.

Since when was WAU a body for deciding anything, anyway? We don't even have a single, unifying tournament system, what makes you think each individual TO will agree to a WAU 'ruling' on what can and can't be taken to a tourney?

This. People don't seem to get this though. There's quite a few codices I don't own but I'm not going to complain about someone using one against me.

Happy to play or play against IA any time (tournament or home)!! :)

Forge World just updated their FAQ's and holo fields are now back to closer to what they were. 5+ invul save vs all hits and 4+ for the enhanced holo fields if the titan has moved. Nice to see a company that listens to fans and makes a effort to update their rules quickly and not wait 3-6 months to fix stuff.

The difference is, I can walk into a GW store and buy a copy of the codex. Buying a copy of a Forgeworld IA book is a bit hit and miss at the best of times. And I'm less likely to be able to borrow a friend's copy, since they're also less likely to own one.

Still, I've been allowing IA in tournaments for years.

How is it a bit hit and miss? You've got the internet and a credit card right?
