It does indeed, although it should perhaps be referred to as Insane Stability for clarity. So if a daemonic unit rolls a double 1 for its Break test, it will not suffer any additional wounds.

Remember that combat resolution adds to the dice roll, rather than being subtracted by from Leadership. As a result, there is no upper limit on the number of casualties that can be caused this way. For example, if a unit of Bloodletters loses a combat by 12 and rolls a 5 for its Leadership test, it would suffer 10 wounds as follows: 5 (dice roll) + 12 (combat resolution modifier) - 7 (Leadership) = 10 wounds suffered.

No, they are characters and not monsters, even though they share some of the same rules with monsters (normally this is limited to the way they move, their inability to join units and their unit strength).

As they are not defined as Heralds, yes they may join friendly units with a

Yes, the Locus abilities are not magic items and are thus not negated by refusing a challenge.

Yes, they're even given as an example in the Flaming attacks rule in the Warhammer rulebook.

Yes.

As panic tests for suffering 25%+ casualties are taken at the end of the phase in which they are suffered, the enemy unit would flee directly away from the final position of the Screamers of Tzeentch.

Beasts of Nurgle and Fiends of Slaanesh are infantry, have a Unit Strength of 3 per model, and thus can enter buildings as normal.

Gifts should be considered 'hidden' in the same manner as Bretonnian Virtues, Vampiric Powers, Wood Elf Spites, etc. are considered 'hidden'.

Yes, as gifts are explicitly not magic items they are still in effect.

Daemonic Gifts are unlike magic items in that they reflect a particular ability of the Daemon in question, rather than something that it carries. This is normally described in a manner that our weak mortal minds can comprehend - as swords, amour and staves, for example but the actual form the gift takes can vary, often minute by minute, according to the will of the Chaos gods. This means that differing bonuses - +2 Strength of the flail and D6 Wounds of the Balesword - stack for a greater effect. Conversely, where there are two bonuses of the same type (e.g. armour save 5+ and armour save 3+) the Daemon simply benefits from the more powerful ability.

There's small paragraph at the start of the Daemonic Gifts section that clearly states that a Daemon may not take mulitples of the same gift. In examples where a Daemon could, say, take two kinds of armour, remember that the save produced does not stack - nowhere does this happen in Warhammer except when specified clearly - simply use the best save.

Yes, in such an instance the daemon benefits from an additional attack as the bonus provided by a second hand weapon (+1 attack for models fighting on foot) differs from the bonus provided by the first hand weapon.

No. It only forces Toughness tests when the wound is unsaved by the Daemon.

Yes. The wording of Pestilent Mucus does not include any restrictions or qualifying language regarding the source of the wounds.

Daemonic Robes only works against attacks that roll to wound. As something that wounds automatically does not roll to wound, the Robes offer no protection.

No. Friendly units only.

He may neither issue nor accept a challenge - he has other priorities now. In the spirit of the rules, we should perhaps allow him to issue a challenge against another character in his own unit, but this seems a little unfair so we are not going to.

Yes, indeed. Remember that the unit must be able to charge - if the target unit cannot reach because the Siren Song using Daemon is out of its charge range, the ability does not work and is wasted. Accordingly, servants of Slaanesh should be very careful about using the gift on units with random charge ranges.

These units must charge, as they can never voluntarily flee.

Yes, treat the Flames of Tzeentch gift as Flaming attacks.

Lores from the Warhammer rulebook only.

Once a model is no longer in base contact with the Daemon, it cannot be affected by Noxious Vapours.

Units take Leadership test on the best available Leadership in the unit. Thus, in a situation where all of a unit is not in base to base contact with a Daemon with Enrapturing Gaze, the unit may use its unmodified Leadership.

A Herald of Nurgle is not a large target, but players should treat him as if he is one for purposes of these abilities (granting him the ability to see all of the target models in an enemy unit). Therefore, he may use the breath weapon abilities on enemy units as normal.

This ability should be resolved simultaneously with impact hits - remember that any wounds caused do count towards combat resolution.

No there is no limit. The T5 / T6 of the models involved should limit the amount of times the wounding cycle occurs.

The Daemonic Gifts of Dark Insanity and Awesome Strength are inherent properties of the possessing Daemon and thus modify the related characteristic of the possessing Daemon prior to the game. Thus if a magic item / special ability swaps characteristics with the Daemon it will be the modified characteristic (2D6+2 Attacks / S10) which is swapped.

Daemonic icons are classified as magic items with the exceptions that they are immune to any spells or abilities that destroy, steal, or otherwise alter the behavior of magic items, and you may have multiples of the same Daemonic Icon in an army. Note that multiples of the same Daemonic Icon may not be taken for a single Daemon.

No. As noted in the Official Daemons of Chaos FAQ, Daemonic Icons are treated as magic items with the exceptions noted above. An exception to allow the use of a Daemonic Icon from rear ranks does not exist.

No, as they are not spell lores in the conventional manner.

For the purposes of The Great Standard of Sundering, these spells are considered to not be part of any spell lore, and so therefore cannot be affected.

Yes.

If the defending unit declares a stand & shoot reaction, prior to resolving the shots the charge should be measured to see if it is within range. If the charge is within range, the stand & shoot reaction is automatically changed to a hold reaction.

The effective Leadership of the unit would be a 7 in such a case. The enemy unit is first allowed to increase its leadership value to that of the General and that leadership value is then reduced by 2.

No.

Yes.

Yes.

The target of the spell is the caster.

This effectively creates a mixed unit of rank and file models such as a Beast Herd. Treat the allocation of attacks and removal of casualties accordingly.

No. Models with a special form of attack, execute that special form of attack as normal.

It only affects models in base to base contact with the caster at the start of each combat.

There is no conflict between the spells in these cases. The enemy model will have its WS, S, T, I and A characteristics reduced to 1 and then the stat increases from spell will be applied. So in the case of The Bear's Anger the enemy model will be WS1 S3 T2 I1 A4 and in the case of the Flaming Sword of Rhuin the enemy model will be WS1 S4 T1 I1 A2.

Glean Magic affects only the spells a Wizard knows. If that Wizard has innate bound spells, Glean Magic can use them. Any spells that are bound to items may not be used. Glean Magic does not affect Incantations (i.e. the spell may not be used to cast an Incantation).

No. If you want to stop the second spell you must stop Glean Magic.

Yes.

5 (not 4).

Yes they are.

He is US 10 - ignore the Palanquin's unit strength in this case.

No. Treat each head as a separate wizard for purposes of RiP spells.

If the head casting a spell loses a level due to a miscast or other means; only the head casting at the time loses a spell. As the model as a whole loses a level, it would however reduce the number of power dice generated.

Select one of the heads (i.e. one of the wizards) to steal a spell from.

No. Necrotic Missiles have no minimum guess range.

No.

The Changeling should be treated as a unit champion for a unit of Pink Horrors. He is not a Herald and he does count towards the number of models used to determine the unit's magic level.

In situation where the Changeling wishes to swap stats with a single enemy model consisting of multiple parts he can choose to swap a mix different stats (i.e. the best from each part).

Yes it can.

The Speculum must be used first.

The Speculum must be used first. The Empire character may choose to swap stats with the Changeling, then the Changeling may choose to swap stats with his challenger or a model from outside the challenge.

No, the attack must still hit for the poison to take effect.

No, the bonus does not apply to bound spells.

Give the general's leadership to the unit, then subtract D3. So with a leadership 9 general, the unit would have an effective leadership of 6-8, depending upon the roll.

Yes it can.

The Changeling is an upgrade, so he replaces a Pink Horror and his cost is added to that of the model he replaces (i.e. the total cost is 72 points). The minimum number of models remains the same - 10.

Karanak is an upgrade, so he replaces a Flesh Hound and his cost is added to that of the model he replaces (i.e. the total cost is 110 points). The minimum number of models remains the same - 5.
