What are the versions on that FAQ history, Parcidas?

I really got lost somewhere after the faq in 7th. I think Cap is here the authority for faq-changes.

In my opinion, if there is no mention of a cannon-ball-shot or a template, than it is no template. That is only my opinion but it seems to be RAW as well.

RAI I would say if someone uses spells like dwellers against me, than hell, for sure ,my cracks call does not allow him a look-out-sir.

I agree with you paricdias exactly the same way I see it no mention of template/cannon ball shot so no LoS, but . . .
what do RAW and RAI mean?

"Ruled as written" and "Ruled as intended".

Not even close; I just got tired of things "mysteriously disappearing" from one FAQ to another.

(This spell totally rules when fighting lizardmen, in my last game I saw a Stegadon tumbling down into the dark (thats friggin 300 points ^^)


Yes as a lizardman player I can attest to anything that forces initiative tests to be painful. Cracks call is one of the easiest ways to drop a bunkered slann with his poor initiative of 2. However the skinks on the stegadon have initiative 4, so I believe you got lucky with that crack (models test on highest characteristic).

I just checked all the Skaven FAQs (7 FAQS) going back to 6th ed and the latest FAQ is the only one that deals with Crack's Call and LOS. There is a question about characters in buildings being that are hit by cracks call but nothing else about LOS and Cracks.

unfortunately the spell targets individual models, not units. so the best I in the unit doesn't matter :-( if it hits that slan, you better hope for a one!

If a slann lets you get near enough for cracks call, he really deserves it :D

btw. Cracks call does not target units or models, it just hits them...

You use the highest stat of a model, which in the steg's case would be the I of a skink (4) in I tests, the same would happen with a dwellers on a warlord on bone breaker, you would use the bone breaker's strength.

Does a hydra use its own Ini or that of the handlers for cracks call

Hydra uses its own I, as it is not a ridden monster/mount or whatever resembles it, and that is the point i deciding whether or not something uses its ows, or the highest statistic for test purposes.
