Warhammer 40,000 Rules Addendum & ITC Format Guidelines

ITC 2017 Season Quarter 1

Revisions since last publication in Red

Last Update: 4-13-17

How to Use This Document

This document comes in two parts: the ITC FAQ and the ITC Format Guidelines. The FAQ is intended to clarify and supplement the Games Workshop (GW) published material. It is written in a general manner to be applied to all Warhammer 40,000 events using the ITC format. The Format Guidelines lay out the list building guidelines for the ITC. These have been consolidated into the same document to allow for easier navigation and to assist players and tournament organizers in answering questions. You do not need to use the FAQ’s in this document in order to submit event results to ITC. Be sure to check with your Tournament Organizer(TO) for event-specific alterations or format changes.

Players should pay special attention to bullets that begin with, “For ease of tournament play, at this event...” These bullets represent the most significant clarifications and in some instances direct changes to the existing rules. In all other cases, GW published material and FAQs have priority in resolving rules disputes. If, after consulting the GW material and FAQ’s, there is still disagreement then judges will refer to this document. Further ambiguity will be resolved by a ruling from the tournament judge. In all cases, the judges’ rulings are final.

Tips for Navigation

You can use the Google Docs outline feature on the left-hand side of this document to quickly navigate to a section you are looking for. Alternatively you can hit CTRL-F (CMD-F on Mac) and type the word you are searching for to navigate there.

You can also easily download this as a PDF by clicking: File->Download as->PDF Document (.pdf) so you can access the file using PDF reader software on your computer or mobile device. This is recommended for players with limited data or access to the internet during events.

Interim Rulings

This section of the FAQ contains rulings which will stand until either GW releases FAQ’s or other supporting documents, or until it has been addressed by an ITC quarterly poll. Questions are listed in black text, and answers are in blue italic text.

Castellans of the Imperium

Does the Castellans of the Imperium allow the use of forgeworld models? Vendettas, etc.

No. You can only use the specific models listed in GSI: Fall of Cadia.

Celestine, Greyfax and Cawl can be used as an HQ for any of the Armies of the Imperium. Does this mean you can take any of them as an HQ for an Inquisitorial Detachment?

Only Greyfax can be taken as the single compulsory HQ in an inquisitorial detachment. Celestine and Cawl cannot be taken in this manner. (Typo was corrected -Editor)

Do non-Imperium factions gain access to relics when taking models such as Cawl or Celestine that unlock access to certain relics for being in your army? 

No, only Armies of the Imperium models would have access to those relics.

Do units, like a Space Marine Captain on Bike, that change another units “type” still change that units type in a Castellans formation (e.g. White Scars bikes as troops?)

No.

Other Interim Rulings:

If you have the new Kairos formation that lets you reroll to seize. What happens if your opponent also has a rule that forces you to re-roll?

The two rules cancel out. Make a single seize roll.

Does the 'hunter's eye' confer ignores cover to psychic shooting attacks manifested from the unit it is in?

No

Do psychic shooting attacks count as a "shooting attack" that would trigger the warp spider's flicker jump ability? Does an overwatch count as a shooting attack that would trigger the warp spider's flicker jump ability?

Psychic shooting attacks can trigger Flicker Jump. Overwatch cannot.

Can Warp Spiders Flickerjump against Beams? Being targeted is the triggering effect for a Flicker.

Beam powers would not trigger Flickerjump.

Does an Objective Secured(obsec) unit in a non-obsec transport grant obsec to the transport? Does a single Objective Secured model in a unit confer Objective Secured onto the entire unit? For example does a Captain from a Battle Company confer Objective Secured to all 55 Fenrisian Wolves in my Wolfpack?

No. Objective Secured is not a conferred rule. The model with the rule in the unit must be within range to claim an objective.

Can wounds from the Necron Sentry Pylon be allocated to models outside the 24” range of the weapon, or is the range of the weapon considered to be 24” + 3d6” (the maximum range of the ‘line’ drawn by the weapon)?

Consider the total range of the weapon to be 24" for the start of the line to be drawn, and then add the 3D6" for the range of the line which can be placed in any direction. Any models within the 24"+3D6" range can have wounds allocated to them.

The new GW FAQ states that vehicles firing ordnance weapons are allowed to snapfire if it is not a blast or template. Does this apply to rapier laser destroyers?

The GW FAQ provides an exception for vehicles, but does not do the same for any non-vehicle ordinance. Non-vehicle ordnance weapons must follow the BRB rules and therefore cannot snap fire.

Can a Skathach Wraithknight leave combat by using its Warp Jump or by going into ongoing reserves? Is the warp jump move 12"+d6” or 18"+d6”?

Yes it may. 18+d6”.

When a Riptide Wing performs a Riptide Hailfire attack, does a Riptide firing his second shots get to boost his own BS by +1 on the second round of his shooting?

No

GW ruled that the only time the unit of horrors does not split is if the whole unit is removed via daemonic instability. Does this include instability tests with combat loss modifiers, or must it be a roll of a 12 when taking the test?

Any unit that is wiped out due to demonic instability (including losses with combat modifiers) does not split; it does not always have to be a roll of 12

How do you calculate cumulative bonuses (i.e. cover/invulnerable saves, FNP, Reanimation)?

All bonuses are added first, stopping at a 2+ (or the maximum it can reach due to modifiers or special rules), and anything beyond that is lost. Then subtract any negative modifiers.

Are Tau Signature systems considered relics and thus limited to 1 per model?

No

When a Pink Horror dies, and a unit of obsec Blue Horrors (e.g. chosen as a Troops choice from a CAD) is placed within 6", new Blue Horrors would be added to it. Given that the new models, by GW FAQ do not have obsec, but the rest do, how do we treat the unit?

The created Blue Horrors join the unit of existing Blue Horrors and are considered part of that unit for all intents and purposes.

The Corsair faction is allowed three detachment options; Combined Arms, Allied, and Fleet Raiding Company. The Corsair First Prince rule states he must be taken in a corsair detachment, and if more than one detachment is present in an army that they treat each others detachment as desperate allies.  How do these rules interact with the GW BRB FAQ rulings?

The Corsair Prince must be the Warlord, therefore he may not be taken in an allied detachment. You can't take a corsair Prince in allied detachment since he has to be warlord and warlord can't be in allied; if you take a prince anywhere else he has to be the warlord.

ITC Rulings Section

This section of the FAQ contains rulings specific to the ITC system. In ITC format, when these rulings conflict with GW rulings, these rulings (by community vote) will take precedence. This applies to the Basic Rule Book (BRB) and Codexes/Supplements.

The Movement Phase

• A Tank is allowed to move through non-vehicle enemy models not locked in close combat when it turns on the spot to aim as part of a Tank Shock. Units moved through in this way count as being Tank Shocked and models in the path of the pivot may make Death or Glory attacks (provided the unit passes its Morale test).
• Vehicles may not Tank Shock in the same turn that they Deep Strike.

The Psychic Phase/Psychic Powers

• For ITC format events, The Invisibility psychic power is altered to read: units shooting at the Invisible unit do so at BS1, and hit it in melee on a 5+. Abilities/Powers that specifically affect Snap Shots may be used to increase the BS of models attacking the Invisible unit.
• A Psyker that chooses to substitute a generated power for the discipline’s primaris power is not allowed to gain Psychic Focus for that discipline. This means the Psyker must generate at least one of their remaining powers from a different psychic discipline.
• Multiple instances of the same wargear or special rule that provide bonuses to Deny the Witch rolls (e.g. multiple Canoptek Tomb Spider Gloom Prisms) do not stack with each other. However, different pieces of wargear or special rules do stack with each other.
• The same restrictions that apply to Psykers while inside Transports also apply to Psykers while inside a Building.
• If a Chariot Rider suffers a Perils of the Warp result while manifesting a psychic power, all effects from the Perils of the Warp table are allocated to the Rider.
• If a Transport vehicle is removed as a casualty due to the Dragged into the Warp Perils of the Warp result, embarked models are allowed to perform an emergency disembarkation.
• If the Terrify psychic power causes a unit locked in close combat to Fall Back, they leave combat and make a normal Fall Back move.  If they were the only unit locked in combat with the enemy, the enemy may not make a Sweeping Advance or Consolidate and remain exactly where they are.
• Use the following clarifications for the Invisibility psychic power:

• Any attacks or special abilities that can cause damage (i.e. hits, wounds and/or vehicle damage) without rolling to hit (e.g. Codex: Chaos Daemons Warp Storm Tables, etc) affect invisible units normally.  

• Zooming Flyers do not suffer the Strength 1 hit with the Haywire special rule when targeted by the Objuration Mechanicum psychic power. The other effects of the power apply normally.
• When manifesting the Sacrifice psychic power, a player may use the 30pts worth of options to purchase Hellforged Artifacts. However, a particular Artifact cannot be taken if it was ever chosen during the current game (even if it is currently destroyed).
• When manifesting the Sacrifice psychic power, the single wound suffered by one friendly model within 6” of the Psyker cannot be given to the newly conjured herald.
• When a Psyker manifests the Possession psychic power but is removed as a casualty due to a result on the Perils of the Warp table, the power still conjures a unit normally.
• Conjured units are considered part of the owning player’s army, but not any specific Detachment. This means they do not benefit from any Command Benefits of any of the Detachments included in the army (such as Objective Secured).
• When a Psyker with the Brotherhood of Psykers/Sorcerers special rule manifests the Possession psychic power, only models in that unit with the BoP/S special rule are automatically removed as casualties.
• A Psyker may attempt to manifest The Gate of Infinity and Levitation psychic powers both while Falling Back and also while locked in close combat. Note however, these powers may not be manifested by a unit that has been Pinned/Gone to Ground.

• In the case of Falling Back, the unit still counts as Falling Back after it resolves the power.
• In the case of being locked in close combat, if the Psyker and any unit he has joined were the only unit(s) locked in combat with the enemy, the enemy may not make a Sweeping Advance or Consolidate and remain exactly where they are.

The Shooting Phase

• For ease of tournament play, at this event, Line of Sight for non-vehicle models must be drawn from the model’s eyes (or closest equivalent).
• Rules that allow a model to shoot more than one weapon in the shooting phase apply to shooting attacks made in other phases of the game such as interceptor shooting.
• Unless a shooting attack specifies that it doesn’t require line of sight or has a provision allowing it to cause damage to units out of line of sight (such as with Blast weapons), then it cannot cause damage to a vehicle model that is entirely out of line of sight.
• Models that Turbo-boost in the Shooting phase can move any number of inches (up to the maximum for their unit type) in any combination of directions, potentially ending the phase in the exact same position.
• If a unit elects to Run and/or Turbo-boost, then all models in the unit must forego their shooting to do so.

The Assault Phase

• Use the following clarifications when declaring and completing charge moves:

• A unit may declare and complete a charge on a single unit even if completing the charge would take the unit out of unit coherency.
• A unit may NOT declare a charge on multiple units if completing the charge would take the unit out of unit coherency.
• If a unit legally declared a multiple charge but due to overwatch fire is no longer able to complete the charge  without breaking unit coherency, the charging unit may complete the charge against the primary target and only those secondary targets that would not cause the unit to break unit coherency.

• If a unit has a special rule that allows it to fire at multiple targets in the Shooting phase (such as the Split Fire special rule, for example), the unit may declare a charge against any of those targets in the Assault phase.
• When multiple units are eligible to fire Overwatch at a charging unit, the firing player resolves the Overwatch from one of his units (of his choice) before deciding whether he would like to fire Overwatch with another eligible unit. This continues until all eligible units have either fired or the player chooses to make no further Overwatch attacks against the charging unit.
• Units are considered to be locked in close combat as soon as any enemy model moves into base to base contact with them. This prevents the unit from firing Overwatch against other units charging them later in the same phase.
• While making Pile In moves, if both players’ moves in a particular Initiative step are insufficient to bring any combatants back together, but Pile In moves in subsequent Initiative steps of that same phase would be sufficient to do so, the combat continues normally.
• A model that is in base contact with an enemy vehicle does not make a start of initiative step Pile In move.
• Units may choose not to make a Consolidation move after winning an assault. If they choose not to, all models in the unit are left in their exact positions.
• If a unit chooses to make a Consolidation move, then all models in the unit must end this movement 1” away from all enemy models, including any enemy vehicles they may have just attacked in close combat.

Morale

• When a unit is able to use the Ld value of a model outside their unit while taking a Ld test, such as with the Inspiring Presence Warlord Trait, any modifiers affecting the unit still apply to the unit’s Ld test as normal.

Characters

• An Independent Character riding on a Chariot does not count as being an Independent Character.
• When a model is involved in a challenge against a Character riding a Chariot, they may choose to attack either the rider or Chariot as usual.
• An Infantry unit with an Independent Character on a Bike attached to it cannot be Pinned/Go to Ground.

Universal Special Rules

• A unit targeted by a Witchfire psychic power may wait to declare whether or not it is Jinking until the power has been successfully manifested.
• A model that fires during an opponent’s turn using the Interceptor special rule:

• Must have line of sight to its target even if the weapon being fired does not normally require LoS.
• Always counts as stationary for this firing.
• May still fire Overwatch if assaulted in the same player turn, even with the same weapon used to intercept.
• Cannot fire more weapons than it is normally able to fire during its own shooting phase.

• If a model has the Smash special rule and uses a close combat weapon that has an AP3 or higher, these attacks are still resolved at AP2.
• Unless specified otherwise, attacks that cause Instant Death on a To Wound roll of 6 still need to be able to wound the target model for Instant Death to be inflicted (e.g. a S4 attack cannot hurt a T8 model even if the attack causes Instant Death on a 6).
• If a unit rolls a Misplaced result on the Deep Strike Mishap table, the enemy player must place the unit in a location where they would not mishap a second time. If no such location exists, the unit is placed into Ongoing Reserves.
• An Ordnance weapon with the Tank Hunter special rule must re-roll both armor penetration dice or none at all.
• Models equipped with a Jet Pack may make a Thrust Move in the Assault phase even if some models in the unit are not equipped with jet packs.

Flyers and Flying Monstrous Creatures

• For ease of tournament play, at this event, all vehicle weapons are assumed to be able to swivel up to 180 degrees vertically on their mount, instead of the normal 45 degrees, although this still does not allow a weapon to draw line of sight through the vehicle’s own hull.
• For ease of tournament play, at this event, Flyers measure distances to Objective Markers using both the model’s hull and base.
• Template and Blast weapons, and any other attacks or special rules that don’t roll To Hit, or hit automatically (e.g. Imotekh’s Lord of the Storm special rule), have no effect on Zooming Flyers and Swooping Flying Monstrous Creatures unless they specifically state otherwise, as is the case with Nova Powers. This is true even if the attacking unit has the Skyfire special rule.
• A Zooming Flyer that chooses to have the Skyfire special rule and uses Power of the Machine Spirit (PotMS) to fire a weapon at a target other than a Skimmer, Flyer, or Flying Monstrous Creature resolves the attack as a Snap Shot. Likewise, a Zooming Flyer that chooses not to have Skyfire and uses PotMS to target a Zooming Flyer or Swooping Flying Monstrous Creature resolves the attack as a Snap Shot.
• A Flyer (in Zooming or Hover mode) that suffers a Crew Stunned result on the Vehicle Damage Table may not switch flight modes in its following turn.

Super-Heavy Walkers (SHW), Gargantuan Creatures (GC) and Flying Gargantuan Creatures (FGC)

• Models which are not locked in the same combat as a SHW, GC or FGC that are covered by any of its Stomp blast markers are ignored and therefore cannot be affected by their Stomp. Note that it is permissible to Stomp friendly models locked in the same combat.
• A Stomp blast marker may only affect one level of Ruin. Further, Stomp attacks may only target the ground level of a Ruin and one level above. The Stomping player must declare which level each blast marker is targeting before rolling on the Stomp Table.
• Casualties caused by Stomp attack wounds follow the normal rules for close combat casualty removal (starting with enemy models in base contact with the SH/GC/FGC first, etc). However any Overrun result rolled affects the specific models underneath that particular blast marker.
• When a vehicle scatters due to a Flipped Stomp result, reduce this scatter as necessary to prevent the vehicle from ending up on top of a friendly model, in impassable terrain or within 1” of an enemy model (if possible).

Weapons

Destroyer Weapons:

• For ITC format events, we use the following profile for ranged Destroyer Weapons in place of that found in the book: D Weapons with the Distort Scythe special rule still subtract 1 from the table below.

• Roll of a 1: No damage occurs.
• Roll of a 2-5: Target model takes D3 wounds, or hull points with a penetrating hit.
• Roll of a 6: Target model takes 3 automatic wounds with no saves allowed, or 3 hull points with a penetrating hit with no saves allowed.

Stomp Attacks:

• For ITC format events, Damage from a Stomp attack that results in a 6 on the Stomp Table can be passed off of an affected model to a model not also under the stomp template with a successful “Look Out, Sir” roll, if the the target model can normally take a “Look Out, Sir” test.

Blast Weapons:

• Vehicles hit by a Blast weapon that are completely out of Line of Sight of the firing unit are still affected normally by the blast.

Destroyer Weapons:

• When resolving a Destroyer weapon attack, roll on the Destroyer Weapon Attack Table (DWAT) for each hit generated and then allocate wounds normally. E.g., a Blast weapon with strength D hits five enemy models from the same unit. The attacker rolls five times on the DWAT getting results of 1, 2, 5, 6, and 6. The attacking player chooses to allocate the group of 2 and 5 results first followed by the group of 6 results.

Primary Weapons:

• If a Primary weapon rolls 3D6 for armor penetration (such as the Banehammer’s Tremor Cannon), then roll four dice instead of three and pick the three highest results.

Template Weapons:

• Models completely out of LoS of the firing unit can be hit by a Template weapon and add wounds to the wound pool for the shooting attack. However, unless the Template weapon does not require LoS, then models completely of out of LoS of the firing unit cannot have unsaved wounds allocated to them, and so cannot be removed as casualties. Similarly, a template cannot affect vehicles that are completely out of the firing unit’s LoS either (unless the weapon does not require LoS, of course).
• When firing a Template weapon, always hold the template above all models and terrain, meaning a non-torrent Template weapon only needs to be placed touching the firing model’s base from a top-down, two dimensional point of view (not physically touching the firing model’s base).
• Template weapons with the Torrent special rule, besides not having to be placed touching the firing model’s base, must still abide by all other targeting restrictions for Template weapons.

Vortex Weapons:

• At the start of a turn, a model still alive on a vortex blast marker after it scatters is allowed to move off the marker as though it were not impassable terrain. 

Modified Saves

• For ITC format events, any saving throw of a 2+ that can be rerolled, if the first roll is failed, the reroll is failed on a roll of a 1,2 or 3.

Army Selection Methods

• Units generated during the game that were not purchased as part of a player’s army list (e.g. Tyranid Tervigons spawning Termagants or the Chaos Daemons Portalglyph summoning daemons) are considered part of the owning player’s army, but not to any specific Detachment. This means they do not benefit from the Command Benefits of any of the Detachments included in the army, including Objective Secured.

Battlefield Terrain

• Tank traps are not impassable terrain to Walker/Super-heavy Walker Vehicles.
• All sections of an Aegis Defense line must be placed in one continuous line.

Buildings:

• Void Shield Generators and Vengeance Weapon Batteries are medium buildings (i.e. they have 4 hull points).
• A claimed building is considered to be a unit in the controlling player’s army. Therefore special rules and abilities that apply to friendly units/models generally apply to a claimed building. Note however, rules/abilities that apply only to units/models from a particular faction do not apply to a building which is not from that faction.
• Ex: A claimed building will benefit from an Ork Kustom Force Field/Dark Angel Power Field Generator that is within range.
• A unit is allowed to move/be on top of the battlements of an enemy controlled building. This is an exception to the rule that models are not allowed  to move within 1” of enemy models.
• Buildings may take cover saves granted by terrain or intervening units just like a vehicle does, treating the building’s entire silhouette as it’s facing.  
• For the purposes of claiming buildings, allies of any type claim a building for the army they were purchased for.
• The Automated Fire rule causes emplaced weapons to fire at the nearest legal target. A unit is a legal target even if the shooting attack is not strong enough to hurt it. A unit is not a legal target if firing at it would require breaking one of the targeting restrictions of the weapon type (e.g. placing a blast marker over a friendly model, etc). 

Gun Emplacements:

• Gun emplacements are neither models nor units (they are terrain), which means:
• They do not generate a Victory Point when destroyed.
• They do not benefit from special abilities that affect models/units (e.g. Ork Kustom Force Field or Dark Angel Power Field Generator).
• They are unaffected by Tank Shocks and psychic powers (other than psychic shooting attacks).
• Gun emplacements may take cover saves granted by terrain or intervening units just like an Infantry model does.
• Units cannot declare a charge against a gun emplacement. However, if while charging another unit a gun emplacement is engaged in close combat, then attacks may be directed at the gun emplacement as though it were a model in a separate unit.
• Both players may have a model in base contact with the same gun emplacement (provided they are 1” apart) and both models may fire it in consecutive Shooting phases.

Ruins:  

• For ease of tournament play, at this event, Gargantuan Creatures and Super-heavy Vehicles may not move/be deployed onto an upper level of a ruin. Other Vehicles that do not have the Walker or Skimmer type may not move/be deployed onto an upper level of a ruin.
• If the target of an otherwise successful assault occupies an upper level of a ruin such that some or all of the charging models cannot physically fit on the level, simply move the charging model(s) as close as possible and treat those models that could have made base contact as if they had. 

Drop Pods

• When a Drop Pod deploys, it does not automatically lose a Hull Point even though it is treated as suffering an Immobilized damage result. However, if it must take a Difficult/Dangerous Terrain test and fails, then it loses a total of 2 HP.

Faction-Specific Rulings

Adepta Sororitas

 Click Here for GW Adepta Sororitas FAQ

Astra Militarum

 Click Here for GW Astra Militarum FAQ

• When a Ministorum Priest attempts to use the War Hymns special rule, he uses his own Leadership value (in most circumstances LD 7) and not the Leadership of any other models in his unit.

Imperial Armor Astra Militarum

• For the Centaur Carrier Squadron, ignore the reference to the Gun Deployment special rule, as it does not exist.
• Cyclops Demolition Squad:

• A Cyclops unit only ever counts as being destroyed if all its operators are killed. Destroying an individual Cyclops does not count as destroying a unit.
• A Cyclops does not make a pile-in move at I10 when detonating.
• Cover saves may not be taken against a Cyclops demolition charge and casualties caused to either side do count towards combat resolution.
• Cyclops models may embark/disembark on Transport vehicles.
• A Cyclops that has lost all of its operators or is more than 48” away from them cannot hold nor contest an objective.

• Earthshaker, Hydra & Manticore Platform Batteries:

• Are immobile vehicles, not artillery, so they have no crew and never fall back.
• Hydra Platform Batteries do not have Auto-Targeting Systems.

• Field Artillery Battery (Heavy Mortar & Heavy Quad Launcher):

• This unit has the Gun Carriage special rule as described on page 188 of Imperial Armour Volume 1, 2nd Edition.
• For the Heavy Quad Launcher, ignore the Shell Shock special rule, as Barrage weapons no longer cause Pinning tests.

• Hades Breaching Drill:

• Has the Melta Cutter ranged weapon.
• If a Hades arrives under a vehicle and just manages to wreck it, place the Hades at the arrival spot on the vehicle wreck; the Hades counts as having moved into difficult terrain.
• If a Hades arrives under a building and this results in the building suffering a Total Collapse, place the Hades as close as possible to its intended arrival point outside of the destroyed building (cheat models out of the way to make this possible if necessary).
• When a Hades rams during its arrival, it always counts as hitting its target in its rear armor, while the ram back against the Hades is resolved against its front armor.
• When a Hades suffers a Misplaced Deep Strike mishap result, the opponent still decides where it arrives on the table, even though the Hades may have already made a ram attack against a vehicle or building.
• When a Hades Assault Squad suffers a Misplaced Deep Strike mishap result the opponent still decides where that unit arrives on the table as normal, even though they normally have to arrive from the same spot as the Hades.

• If Trojan Support Vehicles are included as part of a Heavy Artillery Carriage Battery, they form a separate vehicle squadron that does not take up a Force Organization slot but is otherwise a Heavy Support unit. Ignore all references to them being part of the battery.
• A Manticore taken from Codex: Astra Militarum can replace its Storm Eagle Rockets with either Sky Eagle Rockets or Manticore Missiles for +0 points.
• When a destroyed Rapier Carrier explodes, determine cover saves and vehicle armor arcs from the center of the blast.
• Sentry Gun Battery (Tarantula):

• Uses its listed Toughness of 6, not Toughness 7 as is normally the case for gun models.
• The firing mode for each Sentry Gun must be declared when the unit is deployed.
• Note that the Targeting rule can force a Sentry Gun battery armed with differing weaponry to fire at more than one target unit.

• Trojan Support Vehicles have the Artillery Tractor special rule as detailed on page 76 of Imperial Armour Volume 1, 2nd Edition; replace any references of ‘Centaur’ with ‘Trojan’.
• Valkyrie Sky Talon Transport:

• If a Sky Talon is destroyed while zooming, vehicles being transported aboard take a S10 hit against their rear armor. If the Sky Talon was hovering when destroyed, they suffer a S4 hit instead.
• If a vehicle squadron is being transported using multiple Sky Talons, then all of these Sky Talons must remain within 4” of each other, even if one gets immobilized, etc. If any part of the squadron is forced to disembark for any reason then the entire squadron must immediately disembark.

• Ignore Captain Maximillian Weisemann’s Hardened Crew special rule, as it is redundant.
• For the Dominus Armoured Siege Bombard: the first (upper) profile listed on page 268 of Imperial Armour Volume 1, 2nd Edition for its Dominus Triple Bombard is the ‘Mobile’ profile, while the second (lower) one is the ‘Static’ profile.
• Colonel Snake Stranski:

• Use the fire point rules in Codex: Astra Militarum for his Chimera. Stranski can fire out of his Chimera’s turret cupola in addition to the normal Chimera fire points.
• Ignore his Mechanized Infantry Warlord Trait, as it is redundant.

• General Myndoras Odon:

• Ignore the Supreme Commander special rule. Instead, he has the Voice of Command  & Senior Officer special rules from Codex: Astra Militarum, and can issue up to 3 orders per turn up to a range of 24”.
• The Careful Planner special rule counts as Odon’s Warlord Trait when he is chosen as Warlord.
• Replace his squad’s ‘Regimental Banner’ with a ‘Regimental Standard’ from Codex: Astra Militarum.

• Where units are listed as having the Junior or Senior Officer special rules, reference the Voice of Command rules in Codex: Astra Militarum

Blood Angels

(Ignore AM Entries on the GW BA Codex FAQ)

Imperial Armor Blood Angels

• A Keeper of Relics (page 243 of Imperial Armour Volume 2) for a Blood Angels detachment is a Chaplain (not a Reclusiarch).

Chaos Daemons

Click Here for GW Chaos Demons FAQ

• When resolving a Warp Storm result that requires a D6 to be rolled for each unengaged enemy unit (and units containing at least one Daemon of the specified type), do not roll for units currently embarked in a vehicle or occupying a building.
• The Daemonic Possession Warp Storm result has no effect on psykers currently embarked upon transports or occupying buildings. It does however affect Swooping Flying Monstrous Creatures (that are also psykers) normally.
• When generating a unit of Daemons either from a Portalglyph or the Summoned from the Warp Warp Storm result, a Chaos Daemons player may roll the unit size before choosing which type of unit is summoned.
• When a psyker (or unit of psykers) is created mid-game, immediately roll for any randomly generated psychic powers before placing them on the table.
• Independent Characters from the Chaos Daemons codex cannot join units from the Chaos Space Marines codex.
• Feel No Pain rolls may be taken against wounds caused by Daemonic Instability.
• Kairos Fateweaver’s Staff of Tomorrow does not allow him to re-roll the end of the game roll or a D6 that was originally rolled by the opponent.
• Kairos Fateweaver is treated as a single psyker model for any special rules or attacks that target, count, or otherwise affect psykers.
• For the Lamprey’s Bite special rule, a Screamer’s ‘normal close combat attacks’ include the bonus attack for charging but do not include Hammer of Wrath attacks.
• A model may only take a cover save against a Screamer’s Slashing Attacks if it is in a piece of terrain that grants cover for being in it (excluding vehicles) or there is a special rule granting it cover.
• When the Masque of Slaanesh targets a unit with the Dance of Caging, roll a separate D3 each time the target unit is going to move for any reason. The Dance of Caging affects all types of movement, including, Turbo-boosting and Thrust movement. Flying Monstrous Creatures that are affected by this ability on their turn may not choose to Swoop.
• A model that takes a Disc of Tzeentch as an optional upgrade receives the +1 Toughness Armoured Steed bonus.
• Leadership penalties from the Doomstone apply to an enemy character even if that model is removed as a casualty and later returns to the game via a special rule. If the Doomstone lowers a character’s leadership to 0, then those models may not benefit from any special rules that would prevent them from being removed as a casualty or subsequently return them to play.
• If a multi-wound model fails a characteristic test from the Pavane of Slaanesh or Rancid Visitations psychic powers but is not removed as a casualty the attack immediately ends.
• Each unsaved wound inflicted by either the Contagion or Witsteal special rule does cause the affected model (if still alive) to take a further Toughness/Initiative characteristic test, respectively.
• A Chaos Daemons player may roll to see if the Portalglyph creates a unit the same turn that it is placed.
• A Portalglyph has no dimension, and may be represented by a small blast marker.
• When rolling for a model’s Daemonic Rewards, Warp-forged Armor and the Unbreakable Hide Greater Reward are not considered to be duplicates.
• A model with the Mutating Warpblade must actually use the weapon to slay an enemy character or monstrous creature for the Warp Mutation special rule to take effect.

• Daemon Lords (An’ggrath, Scabeiathrax, etc):

• Daemon Lords are not characters and therefore cannot be challenged nor issue a challenge.
• While suffering from Dark Jealousy, Aetaos’rau’keres must target the closest eligible unit (Greater Daemon, Daemon Lord or Daemon Prince) that is a legal target (i.e. within line of sight, not locked in combat, etc). The Dark Jealousy target is treated as an enemy model for this shooting, but all other friendly models are treated normally, so blast markers fired by Aetaos’rau’keres may not be placed over any other friendly models besides the Dark jealousy Target, for example.
• In order to use the Staff of Cataclysm, Aetaos’rau’keres cannot fire any other shooting attacks and/or witchfire psychic powers in the same turn and may not be within 18” of a valid Dark Jealousy target. If Aetaos’rau’keres fails his Staff of Cataclysm Ld test, the opponent gets to make the attack as though Aetaos’rau’keres were his own firing model.
• An’ggrath the Unbound’s Deny the Witch rolls only succeed on a 2+ if the psychic power actually targets him.

• If a CSM model is locked in combat and the end of phase Toughness tests caused by his Black Mace kills all enemy models within 3” of him, the CSM model is still considered to be locked in that combat unless all enemy models locked in that combat were killed.
• If Typhus chooses to use the Destroyer Hive special rule while he is involved in a challenge, place the large blast marker normally. The enemy model also involved in the challenge is treated as being in a separate unit from any other units hit by the marker. Wounds are then resolved separately for each affected unit, removing casualties in order of closest to Typhus first.

• A Chaos Contemptor Dreadnought Hellfire Reactor’s S2 hit on Psykers does not cause the Contemptor to Pile In at the I10 step.

• The Aerial Assault special rule (on the Dark Eldar Reaper/Tantalus) allows a vehicle with the rule to fire all of its weapons at full BS on a turn it moved at Combat Speed, instead of the limit of two weapons, which is normally the case for a Fast vehicle.
• Dark Eldar Tantalus:

• Cover saves can be taken against Scythevane hits, but only if the attacked model is actually in or touching a piece of cover between them and the starting position of the Tantalus or they have an ability that always provides them a cover save. Use the final position of the Tantalus for wound allocation for these attacks.

• The Fast Shot special rule  applies to any weapon the model is using to make a shooting attack.
• Cover saves may not be taken against Prince Yriel's Eye of Wrath attacks.
• If Yriel chooses to use the Eye of Wrath special rule while he is involved in a challenge, place the large blast marker normally. The enemy model also involved in the challenge is treated as being in a separate unit from any other units hit by the marker. Wounds are then resolved separately for each affected unit, removing casualties in order of closest to Yriel first.
• A model with the Eternal Warrior special rule is still removed from play if it fails its Leadership test after being wounded by a Diresword.
• A Wave Serpent’s Serpent Shield is a weapon and may be destroyed by a Weapon Destroyed result on the vehicle damage chart. Note that this destroys both the Serpent Shield’s offensive and defensive abilities.

• If a Hierophant model is not mounted on a base, draw an imaginary line the minimum distance needed to go completely around all of its legs. This footprint counts as the model’s base for game purposes.
• If line of sight for a firing unit is drawn in between the legs of a Hierophant to an enemy unit on the other side, this does count as firing through the gaps of an intervening unit.
• A Hierophant does get +1A bonus in combat for wielding two pairs of melee weapons (a pair of Lash Whips and a pair of Scything Talons).
• Cover saves cannot be taken against the large blast caused by Incendiary Ichor.
• When the Hierophant is killed, any embarked unit aboard its Swarm Incubation Chamber disembarks exactly like a wrecked Transport vehicle.
• The Spore Mine Swarm Spitter does not create any Spore Mine Clusters if it completely misses its target(s).

• In instances of stacked triggers of soulburst, as they are not simultaneous actions, the first units eligible for Soulburst would need to complete their actions before subsequent Soulbursts occur.
• Swooping Hawks may Skyleap through the use of Strength from Death
• When a SHV/GMC loses 3 wounds and counts as a unit destroyed in ITC, the unit counts as “destroyed” for mission purposes only and does not trigger Strength from Death.

Stronghold Assault Expansion

• The Promethium Relay Pipes fortification must be represented by long/short terrain features roughly the same size and shape as the individual long/short Aegis Defense Line sections.
• A Vortex weapon fired from outside a Void Shield Zone that hits a unit within the Void Shield Zone hits the Projected Void Shield instead of the unit as normal, regardless of where the Vortex blast is on the table. In subsequent turns when the Vortex blast scatters, if the center hole of the blast is even partially within a Void Shield Zone, then the Vortex blast is not affected by that Void Shield Generator.
• Skyshield Landing Pad:

• For ease of tournament play, at this event, when declaring a charge against a unit on top of a Skyshield Landing Pad, the models on top of the landing pad are always considered to be in LoS of the assaulting unit.
• Only models physically on top of a shielded Skyshield Landing Pad gain its 4+ invulnerable save.
• Models in cover behind by any portion of a Skyshield Landing Pad have a 4+ cover save.

Imperial Armour General Information

• When units from Imperial Armor books are usable by several factions (i.e. Space Marine vehicles from IA 2: 2nd Ed, located in the Space Marines section) then consider a single mention of the unit and its rules to affect all armies eligible to take those models unless specifically stated otherwise.
• Replace all references in Imperial Armour books to the ‘Imperial Guard’ with ‘Astra Militarum’ and the ‘Sisters of Battle’ with ‘Adepta Sororitas’.
• Point values and rules for Imperial Armor units must always be the most current published version. When in doubt which version is most current, refer to the Imperial Armor Units Index.
• Except where specified otherwise, an ability that causes an automatic penetrating hit also removes 1 Hull Point per penetrating hit in addition to any damage caused by it.
• Template weapons able to fire at range (similar to the Torrent special rule) still follow the general restrictions for placing a template: they must have line of sight to at least one model in the target unit, they must try to cover as many models in the target enemy unit while not covering any friendly models, etc.
• Immobile artillery gun models that would have to be moved due to a vehicle ending its tank shock on top of them must instead make a death or glory attack. If multiple gun models are forced to make such an attack, resolve them one at a time (this is an exception to the rule that only one model in a unit is able to make a death or glory attack), with each attack that fails to stop the vehicle resulting in one gun model and one crew model being removed.
• If a Flyer has the Deep Strike ability, when it arrives via this method it counts as Zooming at Combat Speed, but cannot drop any Bombs the same turn. If the Flyer has Hover Mode, then it may instead choose to Deep Strike in Hover Mode.
• When firing at a model/unit protected by a Power Field/Void Shield, resolve each hit one at a time, and as soon as the last Field/Shield collapses, any remaining hits are immediately resolved against the unit’s Toughness/Armor Value as normal.

Army List Composition Guidelines for the ITC 2017 40K Season

Please note, these guidelines are free to be used, or altered by individual Tournament Organizers to reflect the desires of their event attendees

Points and Detachment Rules

• 1,850pts is the standard point limit.
• Battle Forged armies only. No Unbound lists are allowed.
• An army may be built using up to three Detachments.

• ITC Faction: Note on your army list which Faction has the most points in it, this will count as your ITC Faction for scoring purposes.

• An army may duplicate a single Detachment, one time.

• Example: A list may include 2 CADs, but not 3 CADs. Or, a single CAD, and 2 Allied Detachments. Or, 3 Formations, 2 of which are the same Formation, etc.

• This includes “Decurion Style” Meta-Detachments which are comprised of multiple datasheets and Formations. They may only take a single duplicate Formation, one time within the Meta-Detachment, although they make take duplicate Data Slate units within the Detachment if permitted to do so. Example: Necrons may take the Decurion with 2 Canoptek Harvest formations within it, but no other duplicate formations.

• Note: “Decurion Style” Detachments comprised of multiple sub-detachments count as 1 detachment towards the 3 detachment limit.

• A Detachment may not be included in an army if it is Come the Apocalypse allies with another Detachment in the army.

Source Material Allowances and Restrictions

• All current source material (excepting what is restricted below) is allowed including GW Codexes, Dataslates, Formations, and current and experimental Forge World units and detachments. All units in these Army Lists are played exactly as they are listed for points cost, stats, etc. out of their respective books. You can not use the stats or points cost listed in the base GW Codexes when using FW rules, even in the case where a unit has the same name unless specifically noted otherwise. In instances there are two versions of the same rules as with the Inquisition/Imperial Agents, you may use either book. However, you must note on your army list which rules you are using and may not use both in the same list. 
• Neither the Imperial Space marine or the Death from the Skies Supplement are being used in standard ITC tournaments.
• The Forge World army lists below are not allowed. Please note, Horus Heresy/30K units are not allowed.

• The Dark Harvest army list is not allowed, although 40k approved units in it that can be purchased outside of the Dark Harvest detachment are allowed.
• Army lists in Imperial Armor 1, 2nd Ed: Armored Battle Group. Note: All units in this Army List are played exactly as they are listed, points cost, stats, etc. You cannot use the stats or points cost listed in Codex: Astra Militarum even in the case where a unit has the same name.

• Reference our Imperial Armor Unit Index for the most recent rules for Forge World units.
• All fortification data slates and upgrades from the Stronghold Assault book and data slates such as the Plasma Obliterator are allowed. The Macro Cannon Aquila Strongpoint and the Vortex Missile Aquila Strongpoint are not allowed.

• No Fortification Networks may be taken. We define a Fortification Network as those listed as such in their dataslate or a dataslate with more than 1 Fortification in it such as the Tidewall Gunfort.

• Regardless of Detachments, no more than 2 Fortifications and/or 1 Super Heavy/Gargantuan Lord of War may be taken from the allowed LoW list with the following exceptions:

• One detachment in your army may include an Imperial Knight or Renegade Knight. So long as the detachment restrictions allow for multiple LoW, you may exceed the 0-1 LoW restriction within this detachment so long as all other LoW are also Imperial Knights or Renegade Knights.
•  One detachment in your army may include a unit of Tau Stormsurges. This unit may contain more than one Stormsurge model.

• Selection Criteria: We use the following guidelines to determine which Super Heavy/Gargantuan Creature LoW are allowed into the ITC format. For a list of allowable LoW by faction, see Appendix 1. A LoW choice is allowed so long as it does not violate any of the following:

• It has a larger than 5″ blast D Weapon.
• It has a Hellstorm Template weapon with Torrent.
• It has a larger than 5″ blast weapon that ignores cover.
• Is a Super Heavy Flyer or Flying Gargantuan Creature.
• It has a “Titan” stat line. We mean by this LoW that have a stat line similar to or better than any of the Titan class Super Heavy Vehicles (Warhound, Revenant, etc.), Titan class Gargantuan Creatures (Hierophant, Tau’nar), or Daemon Lords.

• If a LoW has easy access to means to violate the above criteria such as through Psychic Powers, or wargear such as Marker Lights paired with a LoW with a larger than 5″ blast weapon, etc. In the case that we can simply disallow the wargear item we do that instead such as with the Battle of Keylak Legacy of Glory on Imperial LoW.

• Exception: We allow units that violate one or more of the above guidelines in if they prove to not be overwhelming in power. To date, this has only been done to allow in some Super Heavy Flyers.

• If one player has a Super Heavy/Gargantuan LoW and the other does not, the player without can roll on the Escalation Warlord Table and gains +1 to Seize the Initiative.
• All non-super heavy/gargantuan LoW are allowed, such as Dante or Azrael.

Terrain and Fortifications

• Terrain should be defined between players and adjusted before the game begins. There should be a roughly symmetrical distribution of terrain on the table, with 2 line of sight blocking terrain pieces outside of either deployment zone, offset from the center of the table. Mysterious Terrain rules are not used.
• Fortifications: are all placed using the same guidelines. Fortifications may not be placed within 3″ of a board edge or another piece of terrain. If a Fortification cannot be placed under those guidelines, move a piece of terrain. If it is still not possible to place a Fortification, remove a piece of terrain to make room for it.

• Fortifications may not be placed on top of an Objective Marker.
• A “Counts As” fortification must be the same general size and shape as the model it is meant to represent.
• Exception: Aegis Lines may be placed anywhere on the table disregarding the 3″ rule.
• Exception: The Skyshield landing pad can be placed closer than 3″ to a table edge, but not another piece of terrain.
• Note: A Fortification does not count as a model in your army for the purposes of gaining detachment special rules unless that detachment specifically mentions Fortifications as benefiting from them.

Administration, Hobby & Prize-Support Policies

Modeling and Painting

In order to be eligible for any prize support, all models in your army must be painted to a 3 color minimum and based. Primer counts as a color. Clear bases such as those found on skimmer models do not have to be painted and/or based.

All models are expected to be WYSIWYG to a reasonable standard. Exceptions will be made for themed units or armies.

• Using a proxy for a model violates our policy.
• Using a reasonable substitute to “Counts As” another model, does not violate our policy.
• If in doubt, send a picture in of a model to your TO in advance to ask if it is acceptable.

Paint judging is done by TO’s and staff on a 0-11 scale, with 11 being masterclass, 1 being only 3 colors, and a 0 for an army that is not painted to a 3 color minimum. The player with the highest score is the winner. In the case of a tied score, judges present will cast votes to break the tie.

For Renaissance Man awards, this number is multiplied by the number of rounds played and added to accumulated mission points to determine the score. So, if a player accumulated 4, 6, and 10 mission points in a 3 round tournament, and scored a 7 on their paint score, their total Renaissance Man score would be: 41. (7*3)+4+6+10=41) The player with the highest Renaissance Man score wins this award.

Sportsmanship

Sportsmanship is handled with a Thumb’s Up, Thumbs Down format. We default games to a Thumbs Up from both players.

If your opponent was acting in an unsportsmanlike manner, which we define as being verbally abusive, physically aggressive, was more than 15 minutes late for a round, or knowingly cheated on a rule, you are free to give him or her a Thumbs Down on sports. This rule does not exist to express displeasure in a game because you didn’t like your opponent, your opponent’s army, or you had rules debates, etc.

A player that receives two or more Thumbs Down on Sportsmanship will be met with administrative action up to and including ejection from the event with no refund of the ticket cost.
