I remember that, but I thought that the Avenger was reduced in price and the Dictator went down by 10 points. I remember Zelnik getting all happy about doing a dual avenger list because of it.

I also noticed a change in the AdMech PDF that lets admech escorts take +1 turret for 5 points. 3 turret swords anyone?

I don't recall the Dictator going down in cost, but I know the avenger went down... (squee!)

This was mentioned on Warseer:

Craftworld Eldar

p132 Dragonship:
Is listed in its profile as Cruiser/8 (eight). I hope this is an error.

p134 Shadowhunter:
Is listed in its profile as Cruiser/6 but should obviously be Escort/1.

No corrections from my side at this point.

I just wanted to thank you all for the work you invested, even if it will not be on the GW side i think many players can make good use of all those documents.

nids FAQ again...

pg 29 middle column, third paragraph of tyranid weapons it states that a hive ship may take STR 8 torps for +25points.
BUT
pg 30, first column, third paragraph of tyranid ordnance it states that a hiveship may have STR 6 torps for the price in armada.

I pledged my soul to Clippy, the chaos god of Mistakes and here's what I found: ;)

(All in Powers of Chaos)

<snip>

p 108: Wage of Sin doesn't have a Prow Launch bay listed. Is that correct?


Yes, this is intentional. This BB is based on the Desolator, which doesn’t have a prow launch bay on the model.

Quote

<snip>

p 112: Prow Launch bays are only Strenght 2. Intentional? (It's 3 on Terminus Est and Scion).


Yes, again this is intentional. The Vengeful Spirit is supposed to be the archetype Chaos battlebarge and what the Despoiler was supposed to be. As our mandate included allowing cost changes but otherwise no changes to basic profiles, we included a fix by creating as a separate battlebarge what the Despoiler should have been, along with special rules allowing for some customization.

Quote

General: The order the different gods are described (Khorne, Slaanesh, Tzeentch, Nurgle), their Ships are presented (Tzeentch, Slaanesh, Nurgle, Black Legion, Khorne, rest) and their Fleet listes are presented (Tzeentch, Nurgle, Khorne, Slaanesh) varies each time.
It would IMO ease navigation if they used the same order each time and if the Vengeful spirit was presented after the four other ones with the other generic ships.

<snip>


This was a rather subtle “catch” I hadn’t given any thought to. The Chaos pantheon’s description was left as-is from the original article, and the ships were put in order of cost form most expensive first, which isn’t in the same order as the gods listed in the article. The order of the fleet lists were arbitrary and not in any specific order, so I changed those to the same order they appear in the write up to provide some continuity.

All,

The 2010 Compendium is complete. I want to thank you all for your hard work and (endless!) debate to get this right. I want to also thank those that took the time to check the final drafts for errors, which unfortunately are inevitable for a project this big. I received some e-mails about other concerns as well, and all of these have been incorporated and corrected.

It’s all been sent off to GW so obviously we are no longer making any changes to these files. Unfortunately, now it’s up to the powers that be to get these actually posted on the Specialist Games website. I will let you all know more as soon as I do. In the meantime, it can be found in the same place as always by clicking the link below.
