Dark Elf bugs post here

[Romulus68]

I have a fix in for the Power of Darkness, wording about Hatred/pursuit as you load and Mounts bonuses to armor saves to Silk.



Please post anything else you find here for the Dark Elves.

To do list:
1. Mounts and wounds for Monstrous Cavalry.

Receiving error for "to many of the same rare" when taking reaper bolt throwers, as army builder is not following the 2 for 1 rare choice.

Fixes done:

Assassins no longer a unit option.
Assassins points don't count but to army total.
Harpies points are not core, but army total.
LOTS of wording fixes with errata notes added. (Errata)
Cauldron stat line and wording.

Bugs:
Bolt Throwers count

I think the Dark Elf Errata is wrong for the wounds on the Cauldron. It has it listed as 3 wounds when it should be four. If you read the example of how to remove wounds its four wounds not three.

...."Remove one Hag Attendant when the first wound is inflicted on the Cauldron of Blood, the second Hag Attendant when the second wound is inflicted, but only remove the Death Hag when the fourth wound is inflicted."

I listed it as 4. Am I not mistaken that its like a standard war machines? IE..the Cauldron does not take wounds separate from the crew any more?

For example a standard cannon is 3 wounds. The 3 wounds representing the crew and the cannon not actually having wounds of its own, correct?

Unfortunately it does seem likely that it is wrong but until GW fixes the errata then most players are going to go by RAW

Dark Dragon Egg

The army builder with the WH 8th rules says that the Dark Dragon Egg (dark elf enchanted item) it can only use by models only on foot.
Two possible bugs:
* In the DE army book in spanish, it doesn't say anything about "only on foot models". So, it's an error in the spanish DE army book (I don't find any corrections in spanish FAQ) or an error in the AB.
* If the error is only in the spanish DE army book, AB needs a rule that check that the model is not mounted.

Also, the description of the item must clarify that the breath is a black dragon noxious breath.

Total not updated when selecting a unit of Harpies.

Total not updated when selecting a unit of Harpies.

Which total, the core points or the army overall?

Army Overall

 

[Kovu]

Confirmed: black dragon egg

According to my last post, I confirmed that AB has an error in the black dragon egg. Please, remove "only on foot model" in this item.

 

[Caradryan]

The War Banner still does worth 35 points but it should be 25.

Doh! Ignore me. Harpies don't count toward the core total.
