If a squad emergency disembarks when wrecked does it get the normal 3" movement or do they get the 6" movement?

We will be using the Nova FAQ but I am in contact with Mike Brandt to update it with the new stuff coming in. Quickly to note:<br /><br />A drop pod loses a hullpoint once it lands because well, it get's immobilyzed.<br />Vehicles will get invul saves. (Why buy a flicker field for DE?) <br />Hurrican bolters probably (In discussion)<br />Vendetta (In discussion)<br />Range of weapons as it is currently written it works that way to a point. You still have to have models within 24" of at least 1 model to do wounds anyways. So yes if all 9 of your tactical squad has at least 1 model and a you have a crack missile then you would be able to wound at least 10 models. <br /><br />Spaguatyrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09459803772469387289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519319818452068646.post-13131310256870445662013-01-22T00:35:09.289-05:002013-01-22T00:35:09.289-05:00Also do weapons only harm maximum range of weapon ...Also do weapons only harm maximum range of weapon or maximum range of unit?<br /><br />Example:<br />Missle launcher 48"<br />Bolter 24" <br />All wounds can be allocated up to 48" away?Tomb Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02966193918427844485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519319818452068646.post-29088042246857885922013-01-22T00:33:14.054-05:002013-01-22T00:33:14.054-05:00Speaking of FAQ's.

ALL Dark Angel Chaplains (and most DA IC's) already have the unique Dark Angel rule 'Inner Circle' - p. 28 C:DA "A model with this special rules has the Fearless and Preferred Enemy (Chaos Space Marine) special rules." <br /><br />So, he loses Zealot, which grants him Hatred and Fearless (stacking for doubly Fearless?) and instead gains Preferred Enemy (Chaos Space Marine)...which he already has? So, he "gains" a net sum of losing Hatred? <br /><br />GW, why is this considered a benefit exactly? He certainly is a SPECIAL character!<br /><br />It would be worth it if he just had plain Preferred Enemy rather than vs. a specific foe.
