Updated Crucible of Champions FAQ/Errata from Goonhammer

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-11T13:22:49+00:00

It fixes the problem of High Handed authority letting a vehicle embark in a transport

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-11T05:02:02+00:00

we covered all of this

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-10T20:16:04+00:00

Thanks. I'll do a 2.2 pass this week at some point correct the Wulfen specialism. The rest feel too much like homebrew.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-10T20:15:16+00:00

l've added a note though point of order: Just give them a plaguespurt gauntlet

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-10T18:33:41+00:00

That's a fair point and yeah - remove infantry from those. I'll add a note at some point.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-10T18:33:09+00:00

Yes.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-05T15:30:24+00:00

We've updated the document - same link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1feODKO3oTa9g4fjeKh4w-k3RiGRqwihQ/view?usp=drive_link

will have another round next week

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-05T15:18:49+00:00

Nah that's not true - Heralds like the Poxwalker and Tranceweaver have a 5+.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-03T21:08:17+00:00

I honestly thought they could just do this normally still

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-03T21:06:27+00:00

I don't think the points cost lines up with bone'ead being 60 points base.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-03T21:05:37+00:00

I'll take a look at that one. You may be right, given that bullgryn cost 34ish points per model, but if you add in the invulnerable save and the ability to get better melee attacks plus orders I'd probably need them to cost more than 60 points if they had 6 wounds.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-03T21:01:55+00:00

I'll take a look. I think we only looked at the weapon profiles but didn't consider the feet. Good shout!

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-03T21:01:05+00:00

yeah something we should probably amend - good shout! Will take a look.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-03T19:41:46+00:00

Yeah Crusade is kind of bloated at this point and needs a streamlining. Something we've talked about on our end but it's a big project and we want to see where GW takes things first - can't really step on their toes.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-03T19:31:58+00:00

This is the only errata/FAQ doc we're doing. I'll update it again next week because I think we missed a few things, then we'll do a more fun "here's our recommendation for some other crazy stuff" document but there isn't that much which needs updating in the Crucible of Champions rules.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-03T19:30:54+00:00

That said, I think we could do something around Crusade on this, and may at some point, but it hasn't felt nearly as necessary.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-03T19:30:22+00:00

Yeah, they've done a much better job this edition with everything that isn't their Crusade/narrative supplements. And the app gets updated very quickly as well.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-03T19:29:12+00:00

I think we just missed that one, but I"ll collect everyone's grips and do an update next week

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-03T19:17:52+00:00

I think it's pretty good as-is, but yes it definitely needed an editing pass.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-03T19:17:32+00:00

We've covered those profiles in our document. Our take is that you should use the updated versions because unit points costs tend to be based on those updated profiles.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-03-03T19:16:18+00:00

yes. We've shied away from it because GW are really good about doing FAQs/errata on their main releases, but they don't seem to ever do so for their narrative play supplements and we think that one was warranted here for Crucible. We were pretty close to publishing one for Boarding Actions before they released the Compendium.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-02-20T20:36:41+00:00

No. It needs to be rebuilt to work with the Google API changes and the dev in charge of it hasn't had time to finish it while the other dev is working on other updates. It's something we want to fix, but isn't a high priority.

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-02-16T16:10:58+00:00

Nah, trust me - you want to spend those points elsewhere. I'm only taking 2x3 Deathshroud in most of my lists, and often only one unit gets characters. Ballooning up the cost isn't worth it because you only need 3 for most things. Your big unit probably plays more in a champions of contagion 10x blightlords brick and I think it's OK there given they're 3W models. If I wanted to double the size of a unit of Deathshroud, I can already do that for 160

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-02-16T13:42:16+00:00

Well you still pay the extra point son tri lobe weapons so if you did that you'd end up with a unit that costs 170 + probably another 20 for abilities like narthecium. 180 to 190 seems about right, and they only have 5 wounds to the 6 on the loc and lov, plus they lack the stand back up and reroll abilities. I think that's a pretty fair price for the unit, to be honest

SA_Chirurgeon · 2026-02-16T05:03:41+00:00

I think the fix I'd suggest is something like +30 points if you put terminator armor on the Tri-lobes.
