new hive fleet choose 2

[1b2a]

Matched play:

So can you modify custom hive fleet depending on the army you face? (you couldn't with the standard kraken, kronos etc.)

Can you modify bioartifacts depending on army you face (and choose to spend CP for an additional)?

Can you change phsysiologies depending on army you face (and choose to spend CP for an additional)?

Hive fleet needs to be in your list, so no for first one.

Bio-artifacts you can choose at the start of the game, so yes you can pick them to suit your opponent.

Physiologies are in the middle. First one needs to be written in your list, but the one you buy with the stratagem you can choose at the start of the game. Or you can opt to not take 2 and save that cp.

And I forgot, does 4+++ overwatch trait stack with catalyst?

It does not:

From the main rulebook FAQ

Page 181 – Ignoring Wounds
Add the following as a boxout on this page:
‘Ignoring Wounds
Some units have abilities that allow them to ignore
the damage suffered each time it loses a wound (e.g.
Disgustingly Resilient, The Flesh is Weak and Tenacious
Survivor). If a model has more than one such ability, you
can only use one of those abilities each time the model
loses a wound.’

And lastly, I don't really see it say anywhere that disembarking from a deepstriking tyrannocyte means you cannot move... other than it happens at the end of the movement phase. Does the "end of the movement phase" restrict movement?

If you consolidate at the end of the fight phase into enemy they still get to fight back. You can move with certain stratagems at the end of the movement phase (Perfect Ambush). Is this a rules we've possibly all misread?

[No One]

It's arriving from reserve, it can't move.

On the relic thing, the free one does actually have to be listed on your army list same as WL, but some places let you change it game to game.
