Hi everybody. Longtime lurker, sometimes posted

Followed -.obviously- the discussion after the codex. I'm on the moderately hyped train Very Happy

Scouring the book thoroughly, blaster in hand, i noticed a thing about hellions

14 ppm, ok, fine.

Then the weapon mounted on their skyboard, splinter something -not sure about the english name - is FIFTEEN freaking points.

Am i completely off, or this makes them 29 ppm?

If anyone knows how to deal with this,let me know, cause i find this...horrifying,I suppose.

Want to use them, want back my fleet of the flayed skull, with swarms of bikers and spiderman goblins on crack...but seriously, 15 points for something inbetween a splinterrifle and a shardcarabine?

Ty guys

Hellions have Splinter Pods, which are 0 pts.

The 15 weapon you're looking at is probably the Stinger Pod, which is one of the Talos' weapon options.

I think you're a bit confused. The Hellions have Splinter Pods, which are 0 points. I think you looked at Stinger Pods, which are 15.

Edit - ninja'd!

Double checked , splinter pods, as in the italian version of the codex, are 15 points

the talos things rounds out to 26.

MMmmhmhm...

EDIT: @Logan frost, if i'm not wrong, is Italian as me. Hope he can check it out too, cause it's fairly weird...in italian it's "sparaschegge"...something like splinter shooter. And it's what skyboards are armed with,explicitly

It's a typo in the Italian version then. No way in hell would anyone ever pay 15 points for splinter pods!

What i was thinking, exactly. Since it's not the first (seriously, after phil kelly's version,typos aside, it's a pain to read these books), it could verywell be. Alright then, let's hope nobody messes things up as reading it during games.

Sorry, but I use the English codex and cards specifically for that reason (la versione italiana è una schifezza come traduzione).

English version is 0pts. No question, its a typo.
