Besides addressing their new Theater books and special named characters, they made a few core changes to the game.
Here are some of the key changes and clarification:
Errata:
Flamethrower (vehicles) are now range 12” instead of previously being 18”. Players feel flamethrowers on vehicles are too over powering and most tournaments here in the US have started to ban these options. With the range now being 12”, we’ll see if that levels the playing field.
FAQ:
Assaults: Assaulting around/through an obstacle was clarified. The charge move of the first model is what matters. If he has room to go around the obstacle then assault the squad, they will attack first instead of simultaneous. They include a picture as a reference.
Armies of Germany: They also covered four questions regarding the one shot use of flamethrowers that are used with Eintossflammenwerfer Team.
A few more clarifications were also made but I do not see any of them being too major.
Comment below if you like/dislike any of these changes.
