I often run a doom hammer, and a storm sword. Tank commander demolisher, and a russ exterminator (there buddies). 2 chimera's with death corp, marshal.

He wasn't correct on the redeploy issue - the rules commentary has specifically mentioned that all redeploys now happen before the first turn. This means that redeploy happens after first turn roll and after all other pre movement such as scout. I advise that everyone checks the rules commentary.
@cruelmole

Before the first turn doesn't mean after the first turn roll. Before the first turn is a nebulous and vague description that doesn't actually tell us anything. Some redeploys specifically state that you do the redeploy after the first turn roll (such as the photos captain which states it is after the roll to see who goes first) that leads me to believe that redeploys that don't have that line redeploy before the first turn roll.

@@cruelmole First turn is stage 9 of the game based on the core rules. GW have always referred to 'before' as immediately before in all of its rules and FAQs, in fact many of its FAQs wouldn't work without before meaning immediately before. For example, if we had a following FAQ) "Q: When are redeploys supposed to happen? A: Before the First turn." The player base would play this as immediately before the first turn, stage 9 of the game, not before first turn roll off, stage 7 of the game. The thing is - we don't need this FAQ because they have already told us that it takes place 'before the first turn' in the Rules Commentary. The only reason some of the player base aren't playing it this way is because they missed this line in the rules commentary. The China tournament circuits where I am based as a UK expat play it as the Rules Commentary describes.

But still, thanks for filling me in on that. It's good to know.
