_Valten_ Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 I could do with a little assistance with my list building. I've got both the Index and the CSM Codex in front of me with battlescribe open so I can keep a copy of the lists I produce. Do we have to pay for the aspiring sorcerer in rubric squads anymore? We paid a premium in the Index, but the Codex doesn't have a point entry from them. That, coupled with the change in power points for the elite version of the squad raises some questions. Secondly, do I use the points for the cannon from the Codex or the Index. It's a slight reduction in points in the Codex. Finally, can anyone point me in the right direction for a BattleScribe update for the CSM? The data I've got has been updated in the last 7 days, but still shows the Index points for the Rubrics and Cannon, and doesn't have updated points for things like the CSM daemon prince. Or should I use CSM as the faction in BattleScribe to sort these things out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khannis Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) When in doubt, the Codex is the way to go, per the most recent FAQs. As for Battlescribe, been wondering that myself, it seems pretty slow to adapt to the constant changes (FAQs) but the Codex has been out for some time now. Integrating FW units also seem to be particularly difficult, for some reason... Edited October 6, 2017 by Khannis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prot Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I use the points from the codex. No one has an issue with it here since we know that's how it should be priced for our future codex.... if not then changes to Rubrics from the new codex cost would probably change the CSM costs as well. I just create my lists manually but when I use BattleScribe I use the CSM armylist for my Thousand Sons and use a detachment option to add Thousand Sons units iptjat CSM might be missing.

Skerr Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Didn't the developers say somewhere the codex points were legit for us as well as the expanded DH discipline? Or was it just the discipline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Valten_ Posted October 6, 2017 Author Share Posted October 6, 2017 Well if the general consensus is to use the CSM Codex I'll go with that - it's just unusual because they FAQ'd the daemon points cost on the back of the Codex, but didn't FAQ anything else with points costs. I guess they just assume that people are going to buy every Codex that is even remotely to do with their forces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nym Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Do we have to pay for the aspiring sorcerer in rubric squads anymore? Yes, we do. The english version of the CSM codex is missing the Aspiring Sorcerer line in the points table, but most foreign codices have it. The Aspiring Sorcerer costs 20pts. I find it weird that it's not been FAQd by now. _Valten_ 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interestingly on Battlescribe - if you select a CSM detachment and not a Thousand Sons one, the Rubrics there have the new points cost, but the Aspiring Sorceror there costs the same as the rest of the Rubrics.

Khannis Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) Well, the Rubrics themselves cost 20 (18+2) points, so I was assuming right for my lists. Edited October 6, 2017 by Khannis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nym Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Do you have an image of that part of the CSM Codex? I can't seem to find one. I've seen it on these very forums, but I can't seem to find the thread. I'll post a picture of the french Chaos Codex as soon as I can though (I don't own it but I've checked on my friend's codex and the cost is indeed 20 :() _Valten_ 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nym Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 As promised, here's a photo of the french Chaos codex, with the Aspiring Sorcerer points. http://synonym.free.fr/20171011_213556.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonoftherubric21 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 So an aspiring with stave/pistol is 35 points, not awful everything considered. Id imagine that once we get our stratagems we will be fine lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
