boothdom Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Hi there, Got my shiny new Rules Manual yesterday and have to say I'm super chuffed with it! As I understand (and please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) this is supposed to supersede the errata as everything that came up since the release of Book 1, and was previously in the errata'd, has now been addressed. Super cool! Makes my bag a lot lighter going to games. One point though. I played a game at the weekend using both Austringers and Guardsmen. Now I know Austringers had the "Guardsmen" ability from the errata but there seems to be no mention of it in the new book. Also, there were no v2 cards for Austringers so I could completely understand my opponent raising issue when I tried to cast a Cordon from a Guardsman to an Austringer. I said it was errata'd and he said, doesn't the Rules manual supersede the errata? Can't fault his logic. Is the intention for Austringers to lose the Guardsmen ability? Thanks for clarification?

Mr. Bigglesworth Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 V2 card are still legitimate and on the Austringer it lists them as guardsman. The rules manual would only change the models that it lists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adran Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Austringers were errata'd to include guardsman before they had a card, so when they printed the cards for the model, they all have guardsman on, hence no need for version 2 cards.

Darguth Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 As has been stated you need both the Rules Manual for the most up-to-date base ruleset and the V2 cards for your applicable models for their most up-to-date specific rules. The Rules Manual, by itself, did not update the character stats/rules/abilities/actions/triggers/spells that are present in the original Malifaux rulebook. Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boothdom Posted March 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 (edited) Really? I thought I'd looked everywhere on the card for it to list Gaurdsmen. Where abouts is it? I was assuming it'd be listed in the same place as Construct or Woe etc. Thanks for the answers, Dom Edited March 15, 2011 by boothdom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that helps Thans for the response, but no, it doesn't help really. Both Guildgaurd and Austringers didn't get v2 cards so your comment isn't applicable. Others have stated that the Austringer card does state "Guardsmen" though, so I must have missed it. I'll look again when I'm home from work.

mylastnerv Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Mine say Guardsmen on them . . . so I don't see why your cards should be any different. Try looking again and tell us what you find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
