ERRORS AND OMISSIONS: Biannual is indeed twice a year. BIENNIEL IS ONCE EVERY TWO YEARS. Because English. You have to make "contact" with a pursued unit in order to hack it to bits. So being able to place a pursuing unit is indeed important.

[@badlydrawnhobbyist]

Currently my favourite podcast to listen to while painting, and as a testiment to your enthusiasm for the game I'm already way over 2500 points painted!

Yep i've been working on the last of the Skaven half of my old Island of Blood 8th ed. starter box. Did the high elves last Winter. I have the new Bretonnian starter box sitting in my closet, which is up next. This channel gets me motivated, love you guys!

[@CatharsisChaser]

Regular and relevant rules clarifications... with a seasoning of designer spice I'm in love

[@stoephil]

In the French BTB, the "Strike last" rule states that the unit has an Initiative 10. :D There are TONS of incorrect copy/pastes and spelling mistakes and even phrases that make no sense in non-english rulebooks. The funniest one is at one point, they want to say "if you want" (si vous voulez) and they wrote "if you ovulate" (si vous ovulez).

[@zhufortheimpaler4041]

english speakers and the french language.... an ongoing war of agression

[@Zenfoxgames]

Great Show! I got a big list of FAQ questions: What is the order of operations on leadership substitutions? If something in a unit gives a general in the unit a modifier to its leadership does that apply before or after it is used for inspiring presence. And then is the modifier on a unit that is recovering inspiring presence applied before or after. When is the first round of combat? If a unit charges a unit that FBIGO is that a first round of combat? When is a unit charging? Are charging and first round of combat divorced from each other? Can initiative go above 10? Does a "drilled" unit get to reform before charging? If an impetuous unit cannot complete a charge, say because a unit of friendly skirmishers is in front of it, or because it is in march column does it have to declare a charge?

[@crusader2410]

RE: The point about Armourbane (X) stacking with Killing Blow on 6s to wound- Remember that KB ignores armour and regen on a 6 to wound- so armourbane becomes irrelevant. Keep up the great content guys!

[@vodrake]

The reason why having both may be desirable is if the thing your hitting is immune to killing blow (monster for example).

[@Na_bro_leon]

In the case of hitting something that isn't affected by KB, it just wouldn't come into play. It has no effect, so Armor Bane would kick in as something that does.

[@nuttyfessor]

Yes- except against troop types which are not affected by Killing blow, in this case armorbane (x) can be useful still.

[@ScatterDieGuy]

If you transmogrify into the frog on a dragon in official GW tournament play will you be required to have a sufficiently representative model?

[@GreatMachination]

Wow, those were some great questions answered. Now I just need the weather to get better here so I can get my books delivered, heh. This is the perfect time to get stuck in reading some Old World now.

[@mightyg4538]

Kings of War has a rule disallowing hills in deployment and I can't stress enough just how good it is for the rank & flank games to not have a damn defended hill filled up to the brim by empire/dwarves/skaven/elves.... Make tables with no hills in deployment and see how much better the game is!

Gentlemen, respect! I'm listening to Your videos at work, and just cannot get enough. Been a event player between 6th to 8th ed.

[@logandaley1544]

I love that some of the answers were funny. As a brand new player this was very informative. I can’t wait to forget it all when I go to play my first real game.

[@Gartov77]

My rules question: does drilled give you a free redress the ranks maneuver for any move, or just moves during the movement phase? Most importantly, can you redress the ranks before performing a charge move? They specifically call out that you can declare a charge while in march formation, you just cannot make a charge move: does the drilled special rule allow you to charge out of march formation by redressing to a combat order?

[@IceJoust]

Frog on a Dragon confirmed! Loving the dedication to the corrections in the comments, especially for not slowing you guys down in the flow. The FAQ was a fantasic document and I don't feel like I'd have understood all the implications, thanks guys!

[@mystictirend1222]

I personally love the Overrun clarification just because it gives units with Frenzy a way to actually not get instantly put out of combat for like, 2 turns Edit: To put my 2 cents into the whole Character/General Leadership vs Unit's Leadership, in the older version I played there used to be a big difference. For example, Stubborn (which let a unit make break checks ignoring any penalties). If your unit had stubborn but your General/Character didn't then you had to make a choice between using the Character/General's higher Leadership that would then get modified or the unit's lower Leadership that couldn't be modified. This came up a lot for me back in the day because Greatswords were Stubborn but Elector Counts weren't so you had to choose the modifiable vs non modifiable one. Edit2: Something that's been bouncing back and forth between me and my friends is whether the Wizarding Hat allows you to select a school of magic normally not allowed to the character. e.g. an Orc Weirdboy puts the hat on and starts using necromancy (ignoring that this literally happened in the lore.) I'm of the mind that yes, you can choose any lore because that's literally what it says. Their counter is that Army rules override Game rules and since the character has a list of allowable spell lores they cannot do it.

[@Thesp_The_Thesp]

It's been a while since I haven't felt like I've lost something after an FAQ No changes to the rulebook (making it like coarse toilet paper day one) All really good clarifications A little bit of cheeky humour This is the best FAQ in recent memory..shit.. it has me praising GW... I need a DRINK!

I want to say a big thanks to you guys for this podcast, I narrowly missed out on the original WHFB and only really got 2 or so games in before AoS dropped.

[@jacklovelock1953]

This has to be the best FAQ they have done. It's to the point, covers a lot of heavily asked questions and has a nice bit of spice to it 😂

[@SquareBasedOldWorld]

[@michaelharding9619]

Fab video, really enjoyed it and very much appreciate your enthusiasm for the Old World. Particularly endorse your views on friendly competitive gameplay!

[@bryanquick3349]

I'd like to know how ridden monsters vs. challenging infantry are resolved. I know you can only score up to five wounds in overkill, but in the event that the challenging infantry model dies too attacks from the rider or the monster and they rack up the total wounds, what happens to the stomps? do they go into the unit, or are they all directed at the corpse of the challenger? and also, if the challenger dies, does the unit get to slap up the ridden monster?

[@mjpegasus1079]

I haven't really anything different to add to what everyone has already said here. This game's release has me incredibly hyped after a time where I was wondering whether I'd be hobbying or wargaming ever again. There's loads of great content that I'm digging into but Square Based has just been so damn good! Your enthusiasm is infectious and knowledge insightful, helping me no end in getting motivated and, moreover, organised. Thank you both for all the hard work. p.s there's a joke here about also enjoying it when Val inserted himself, but I think I'll leave such things for live chat. Or will I?

[@danh945]

Loving the channel guys - you are really helping to clarify the game as well as building hype! Hope the community you are trying to build takes off.

[@MiniatureRealms]

Great looking FAQ, not entirely surprised based on who is involved, SDS have mostly great form for these in MESBG as well. Wonder if they will be twice a year like the MESBG one as well.

[@chriscousens111]

I'd love them to tell me how random movers work. Can I loop around to the back of a unit and make contact with their rear even though I started in their front? What happens when they move at weird times (like coming on as ambushers, or with Arcane Urgency) - can they engage enemy units with those moves?

[@getorix1]

Some great clarifications and some excellent little bits of entertainment written in there. Another great show.

[@liamfishwick2943]

We are struggling with the Lance...can the opponent attack back with 2 attacks on their whole fighting rank...and how do Lances allocate attacks on chatacters?

[@grounder91]

Question: If a Hill is on another Hill, can you see another Hill if trees are on the Hill?

[@ElOvnen]

I'm *so* impressed with the quality and thouroughness of this FAQ as mainly a 40k player. It even has a little personality injected! 40k FAQs mostly come in this format: "Q: Paraphrased two-part question somewhat adequately describing a very complicated interaction? A: Yes." Whereas this FAQ reads like actual questions asked and answered by real, actual people.

[@Derlaid]

Yeah everything about the development of Old World comes off as some really passionate designers getting some leeway to run a game system the way they want. I'm surprised by with what they've produced so far.

[@morgantreeman6872]

when taking DT test, at what point exactly during the unit's movement do you take the test? this could matter if the unit panics for BSB range.

[@ClydeMillerWynant]

Everyone should throw their old hills away and make new ones that are about 25% bigger so that the same units can still fit on them.

[@OldWorldJthulhu]

Thank you for your coverage of the sport!😊

[@BlitzDonut]

Question: if i am in a challange, killed the other character and have a mount with stomp attacks, can i put the stomp attack in the unit ? I am quite sure i can when i am fighting a character, cause stomp attacks can just go on characters if there are less than 5 models in the unit, but what about fighting a champion ?

[@benneem]

Some questions I can't see a definitive answer to (Note that I am aware there are "spirit of the rules" answers to most of them, but clarity would be better): 1. Can a cannon aim somewhere that risks hitting friendly models or models engaged in combat? 2. Models that FBIGO can reform to completely change their facing and formation if they want to? I suspect the intent was for everyone to just do a longer Give Ground but rules as written FBIGO gives you a free reform... 3. Models that started in a position to make a supporting attack that "step forward" due to casualties can still make their supporting attack, right? 4. Formed Units Charging Skirmishers: What exactly is meant by "move as directly as possible"? The example image 186.3 apppears to show the unit *not* doing that. 4. Shooting at Large Targets, every rank or just two ranks? 5. Magic Vortex. Move every player turn or just controlling play? 6. Pillar of Fire. Block line of sight? Grant cover? 7. Drilled. Redress after declaring a charge but before conducting the "charge move"? 8. Swiftstride a "may" ability? I can choose to charge, pursue, or flee less if circumstances would advantage me to? 9. Mace of Helsturm + Spectral Doppelganger, yes or no? 10. Flails, Hatred, and other "first round" effects after pursuing into an enemy that you just made FBIGO? Yes or no? 11. Warband gives bonus LD against Stupidity? 12. Unit A overruns into unit B. Before that combat is fought Unit C charges unit A. Unit A gets initiative bonus for attacks against unit C? If unit A was hammerers or had the Shieldwall rule could they trigger their "was charged" rules? 13. Please errata the Fighting Ranks rule. 14. How many shooting attacks on a split profile? Rider shoot a bow, use a bound spell, cast a regular spell, and have their dragon breathe fire in the same phase? 15. Buff Spells that need arc or line of sight: can they target self? 16. Sisters of Thorn: choose the *Lore* and then randomise or just literally choose the *spell* they want? 17. Arcane items that refer to "instead of dispelling" need the bearer to be in range to do a Wizardly Dispel to be used at all?

[@SquareBasedOldWorld]

Oh that's a fun stack of Q's!

[@Willabrador]

So so great boys. Hoping to play my first game with a couple of mates on Friday but our rulebooks are delayed! Thanks for the great stuff as always

[@benwalkeryt]

Thoughts on that weapon change after Give Ground / FBIGO rule and how it affects lances? It says in the fluffy bit at the end about discarding lances, but the lance rule specifies you can use them in any combat you count as having charged - not just first round of combat. Then FBIGO says if you catch them you count as charging. And then the FAQ is grouping FBIGO and Give Ground… So I take it that it just means if the enemy gives ground you can still switch from lance to sword, but if they FBIGO you *could* technically switch to lance if you want, but they still work anyway because you count as charging?

[@SanFranSicko]

This one is going to need another FAQ. Both readings are possible and both are supported by different rules. I think it’s pretty unclear right now whether you can pursue FBIGO with lances again or have to switch to swords. Their mistake might have been grouping GG and FBIGO but hopefully they clarify this before we play with brets wrong for 6 months!

[@benwalkeryt]

@@SanFranSicko Yeah indeed! My take is that you can use them again for FBIGO, but the wording is definitely confusing.

[@wittcomb4378]

I believe you misunderstood the general principles point since you mentioned monsters but i believe all this point allows is a marching column of 1 wide and does not affect a lone model otherwise this would contradict the definition of a unit in close order on pg 100. ("A unit in close order consists of two or more models that are arranged in base to base, edge to edge and front corner to front corner") which is why i wish there was a bit more in this faq for single models since I'm still a little unsure what formation these would be in.

[@jessepigram1039]

Lumbering models (monsters and heavy chariots) specifically benefit from the Close Order rules, despite being too small to be in Close Order formation

[@thomasc6684]

That’s tonight sorted while I build more Brets! Hope to get to one of your events soon. Will you be releasing a VOD of the stream from today on this channel?

[@ivanp8]

Great video. From the FAQ we know that a Cannon does not hit a Lone Characters if it is within 3" of a unit made up of 5+ models in ranks and files, excluding exceptions. Nowi have a question: The Cannon Rule says that it is not forced to TARGET a model or unit, does not use Templates and automatically HITS all models under its ricochet. A character joined to a unit of 5+ models in ranks and files, the rules say, CANNOT BE HIT, unless he is the TARGET of an attack that directly TARGETS a model within the unit, if he is positioned under a TEMPLATE, or if joined to a unit with fewer than 5+ models in ranks and files. If the Character in question is under the ricochet of the cannon, how should we behave? He must perform a Look Out Sir!, he completely ignores the Cannon Shot as per RAW (and also according to the spirit of the game rules), or he is automatically hit and cannot even do the Look Out Sir! ?

[@grungivaldigurnisson5115]

The FAQ reminds me of 5th ed fantasy with the tongue in check responses

[@Na_bro_leon]

As usual, you guys are legit the best podcast around for square based hype! For the "Does a unit get run down if for some reason you can't complete the pursuit move", I think you guys are wrong on that one. On pg 157 "Catching the Curs!" It says if you made contact with the fleeing unit. I think that still holds - if you can't catch a unit by physically getting to them, you can't hack them apart. You're considering to have made a move, but not necessarily caught them. Oo also - for the Veteran/Leadership test thing - think of the Arise! rule with TKs. The model takes a lead test using their own leadership - this is asking if the lead test for Arise! is affected by Veteran from the unit when the character doesn't have the rule. (Answer: No). I know the person who asked this one, so I know the situation that brought it up!

[@belannaertv]

Great FAQ and great discussions about it!

[@Emanon...]

[@lukehartman3637]

Looks like spell lore must be written into your muster list BTB Pg 319. Unfortunate, as I was looking to have flexibility with my Slann in an event.

[@Ckapter]

Tomb Kings… can General’s Leadership be used by the Necrotect for his Eternal Taskmaster ability? I’m unsure as there is parentheses that states (using their own leadership), but does inspiring presence over ride this?

[@Thaumatolgist]

28:44 Veteran is a leadership re-roll, no? So the answer is saying a character without Veteran can't use a re-roll for leadership for a special rule that the Unit would normally be entitled to, is how I read that.

[@guillermomartinez5806]

34:40 This was REALLY important for Bretonians armies in 6th edition, where the characters equipped with a lance MUST use the lance in the first round of combat when they charged, then, in ongoing turns, (if they didnt break the enemy), they should use the magic weapon. This maybe / maybe not could be a nerf to bretonian characters charging, cause I think they only have ONE magical lance in their army list, and lances are more impactful charging than most 1handed 40-50 points magical weapons.

[@pardoe17789]

[@jolamber]

So if you are pursuing a fleeing enemy and run into a different enemy unit on your path, are you then in combat with that new enemy unit?

[@benjaminboyle7329]

I was hoping to see a clarification on wether or not the model behind behind a frontline model that is killed can still make a supporting attack. The model behind a frontline model that has been killed has to step up and therefore can't make supporting attacks per "Stepping Forward" on pg 146. However on pg 150 under "Excess Casualties" it says that casualties beyond those in the front rank reduce supporting attacks. That statement is unneeded if they already couldn't attack. What do you guys think?

[@jessepigram1039]

A model stepping into the supporting rank are only restricted in making supporting attacks by the rules in the Excess Casualties rules. Someone who steps into the supporting rank is able to attack unless the fighting rank was afflicted with more casualties than it has models

[@benjaminboyle7329]

@@jessepigram1039 I tend to agree with you but where does it say that in the rules?

[@jessepigram1039]

@@benjaminboyle7329 I don't think there's any place in the rules that explicitly states "guys stepping into the second rank can still support", but the rules allow certain models to fight from the second rank, with the only rules stopping them being those under Excess Casualties. You could maybe argue it's rules by inference, but it's the only possibility I can see

I would have liked to have something called out about the fighting rank. From what I understand (I may well be wrong) everybody in the 'fighting rank' gets to make an attack even if not in base to base. What's to stop me having a unit 60 wide and therefore getting 60 attacks? If the fighting rank includes the guys in the second rank wielding spears and I'm 60 wide and 2 deep do I get 120 attacks? You get what I'm putting down I'm sure. As I don't have a copy of the rule book in front of me and I'm basing this off videos of people discussing the rules I may well be completely wrong about this.

[@samgibbs8194]

You can. However deploying around terrain would be tricky. And the whole enemy army would be able to charge you at once. Also, although rear ranks can wheel through units, the front rank cant so it would be difficult to move

[@niklaseneqvist2931]

Hi guys. I think you missinterpret the purpose of the question in regards to Maximum possible charge range. There has been confusion when applying this with swiftstride, where you add 3" to the maximum possible charge range and add a D6 to the move. Some players have played it as such; i.e a swiftride unit with move 7 would have a maximum range of 16" (7M+6+3) while rolling, if they roll above 16 they have reduced the number to 16, while other have played it as rolled, ie. 18 (the maximum of 3D6). This clearifies that :) Best regards

Like Referees, TOs should be held accountable for bad calls. Ive seen too much cronyism were store/TO besties get preferential calls.
