40K Breaking: Updated FAQs for 8th Edition Core Book and Indexes
Just in time for the new Codex to be out, a list of new FAQ clarifications and errata for all the main books.
Short and sweet folks. There’s a new batch of updates to the current FAQs over at Warhammer Community. There’s some pretty sweeping changes with this second pass at clarifying the rules.
