[Twinlinked]

that a teleporter on a DKs back woudl make it get a cover save when its foot is blocked,

but hey, rules are rules..

sigh all true.....oh well i'll just have to play cleverly to kill the dreadknight and the 10 other models in the persons army. WHAT!??!?!? you say I may have to think about the game I play?? obsurd!

DAMNIT!!!!!! what is this world comming too????? codex writers can't account for every possible neck beard move it will most likely be FAQed that the monster can't go into the stormraven and it seems oddly against the spirit of the rules but what do I know, I just roll dice and watch models get pulled off the table. derp

Totally agree. one little slip of become jump infantry compared to moves as jump infantry and "R.A.W" cheese monkeys start wetting them selves at the prospect of finding a loop hole, at least until an FAQ comes out telling them to shut up. Why oh why can't some people realize that claiming something like that is complete crap. The thing is a MC first and if anything Jump Infantry second. Spirit of the game is very important but seems to get kicked under the rug more and more. herpa derp.

I think you'd agree that trying to devine the intention of some GW codex author's is also a slippery slope. RAW vs RAI (rules as written vs rules as intended) is part of solving rules issues but neither one is the "answer" all the time. As always it's good to know where the cracks in the rules are so that you can discuss them pre game.

Even if neither of you are playing the army......
