Farsight and Broadsides.....*sigh*

[Folken]

Yo Hive populace, I got a burning question for you all. I'm currently in a heated debate with a few of the locals at my club that believe that they can take 3 Broadsides and still run Farsight, even though it says that he can take only 0-1.

Thier argument is that thier a team and thus only take said 0-1 spot. But I say that the entry isn't refering to teams but to single units. I'd flip threw my dex to find out myself but lo and behold now that I actually need it I can't find it for all the tea and crackers in the world.

Anyway, I'm hoping that they way I'm looking at this is correct, otherwise I'm going to owe a couple guys cokes....* damn me and my betting habits!*

[coredump]

It says the *unit* becomes 0-1. So they can only have 1 unit of Broadsides. But a unit is made up of 1-3 models. So yes, they can take 3 of them, as long as they are in the same unit.

[Elaitor]

Being in the same unit means they have to respect unit coherency, so they have to be within 2" of each other.
Broadsides aren't allowed to deploy as, say, Tyranid Lictors or Zoanthropes, which can be deployed independently even though they share the same roster slot.

Better get money for those cokes

You have to buy cokes for losing a bet? In the real world you'd have to buy beers ;D

Germany. a few years back they actually had to make a law that forced pubs, clubs etc. to offer at least one non alcoholic drink (usually water), thats cheaper than the cheapest alcoholic drink (usually beer).

Awesome!!

And Germany has laws about what *real* beer has as ingredients. None of this 'rice beer' (please do not swear) that Bud tries to call beer.

Hahahahah this is so funny! From Tau to beer. Awsome!Hahhahaah

[Sledgehammer]

Yeah, but that law is no longer effective (thank you European Union). But German beer is still brewed by the standards of said law.

I remember another American getting in an argument with a German about Beer when I was over there, and the German finally shut him up with the fact that Germany had laws on the books regulating the manufacture of their beer before the US even existed

And, as I recall, the beer is usually still cheaper, because they'll sell something like a 150ml glass of Coke for 1.5 Euro, and then a 300ml glass of beer for 2 Euro. So technically, the Coke is cheaper, but on a per volume basis, the beer still wins.

Man, between that and the ridiculously cheap Turkish food I really miss Germany.
