>1) daemon engines: the daemon engine power change for the gods to which the engine is associated.

I think I got that right. The Chaos Coordinators never got back to me with a list of final corrections.


>2) the daemon engine default power (korne)is incorrect: the +1
saving throw bonus is missed.
>3) minion daemons, trolls and minotaurs are infantry!
>4) lord of battle can use his weapons only.

Fixed.


5) chaos magi powers: have been revised in this discussion:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/netepic/message/15581

Thanks! I was wondering where that went.


6) new error (I post this for the first time): Plague tower is a
Praetorian, and codex says: "Although a Greater Daemon it must be given orders normally".

The rules for Praetorians have been restated to the effect of "Praetorians don't double movement for Charge Orders". Take a look at the 5.X core rules and let me know if they need to be clarified again.

I've changed the wording for the Plague Tower to: "This unit counts as a Daemon Engine, a Greater Daemon and a Praetorian and follows the full rules for these types of units. In the case of conflicting rules, choose the ones least beneficial to the Chaos player." It may sound unfair, but that's a simple way of saying 'take all the advantages but all the disadvantages, too.'


>My new proposals:
>1) Cannons of Korne: imho the rules about misfire=explosion is
exaggerated...

I checked - if you roll a Misfire, the cannon is destroyed.


>2) The greater daemons target rule: is correct that you can fires on GD for his dimensions, but is also a HQ. Imho, if any knights are nearest, you canfire on GD.

Remember that we split the Command and HQ abilities. Command allows a unit to [Move=Charge & shoot=First Fire], while HQ gives you the targeting protection. GD's are Command but not HQ, even though they fill that position in an army heirarchy.
