A vehicle targeted by Mind Wipe will have its Weapon Skill and Ballistic Skill reduced to 1 until the end of its next turn, at which point it will recover (it is treated as automatically passing the Leadership test).

No.

No.

Yes. The Darkshroud’s Shrouded rule stacks with the Stealth rule that the Land Speeders gain from being within 6" of the Darkshroud – every model in the squadron has a 4+ cover save in the open.

No – the Cypher Dataslate describes how you can field him.

If your Ravenwing Strike Force includes a Flyer, e.g. a Nephilim Jetfighter (which must be set up in Reserve), the whole Strike Force must be set up in Reserve, as described in the Strike as One rule.

Yes. For completeness, here is a list of the Khorne Daemonkin units that the Deathwing hate: Chaos Lord, Daemon Prince, Chaos Cultists, Chaos Space Marines, Berzerkers, Possessed, Chaos Terminators, Chaos Spawn, Chaos Rhino, Chaos Bikers, Raptors, Warp Talons, Heldrake, Chaos Land Raider, Forgefiend, Maulerfiend, Defiler, and Helbrute.

Yes. However, as they do not have the Deep Strike special rule, any of these characters can only be set up in Reserve (they could, of course, be embarked on a Land Raider taken as a Dedicated Transport by another unit that they have joined in the Detachment).

Detachments like the Deathwing and Ravenwing are meant to be used in support of other Detachments and Formations. If your entire army is a Deathwing Detachment (or a Ravenwing Detachment deployed in Reserve), then you will lose the game at the end of the first turn because you have no models on the battlefield. To avoid this, field one of these Detachments alongside other units, Formations or Detachments. Alternatively, you can have a chat with your opponent before the game and see if they’re happy for you to tweak the rules to avoid this situation!

No. As stated in Warhammer 40,000: The Rules, Independent Characters do not confer their special rules on units they are joined to (and vice versa) unless stated otherwise.

If a model passes its Reanimation Protocols or Feel No Pain roll, the Wound is treated as being saved, so the model suffers no penalty to its characteristics.

When a model Jinks, it gains a 4+ cover save until the start of its next Movement phase. A model with the Ravenwing special rule can re-roll any cover saves it has to make against the attack that prompted it to Jink, and any further cover saves it has to make until the start of its next Movement phase.

Yes, Ravenshield allows you to fire Overwatch in support of a friendly unit with the Ravenwing special rule – it doesn’t need to be part of this Formation, but it can be.

The controlling player can use their discretion as to which of their model’s saves is ‘the best’, so a player could choose to use their Ravenwing Bikers’ 4+ re-rollable cover save from Jink instead of their 3+ armour save.

Yes. If you decide for the Ravenwing Strike Force to be in Reserve, any units that can normally do so can choose to Outflank.

A model with Grim Resolve fires Overwatch at Ballistic Skill 2. This is not affected by Invisibility.

No – Vengeful Strike only benefits models wearing Terminator armour arriving by Deep Strike.

The weapon is AP 1 when used to attack a unit with the Chaos Space Marines Faction.

A model may only take one Relic of Caliban.

A Deathwing Terminator upgraded to the Deathwing Apothecary replaces his power fist with a narthecium. He may not take any other options. A Ravenwing Black Knight may be upgraded to the Ravenwing Apothecary, taking a narthecium. He may not take any other options.

A Dark Angels Librarian may not take a storm shield.

Yes – the Terminator may first replace all of its weapons with the thunder hammer and storm shield, and then, as one of a group of five models in the squad, take the cyclone missile launcher.

For Interrogator-Chaplain Seraphicus, use the Interrogator-Chaplain datasheet and choose to take a plasma pistol (15 pts) in place of his bolt pistol.
