8th edition FAQ

Wow, it seems as though GW has turned over another leaf with the support they are giving their rulebooks. I know some people will be complaining about the poor editing that requires 6 pages of errata and FAQ's but I think most of the changes are there primarily to stop the rules lawyers from trying to twist the rules in their favour by finding loopholes. The loopholes have always been there, but now they are actively fixing them as they come up instead of waiting for the next edition to fix them.

One thing I found interesting:

Q: If a model is transformed, for example by the Transformation of
Kadon or Sivejir’s Hex Scroll, do their special rules stop working
along with their magic items and equipment?(Reference)
A: No

So a high elf mage that transforms will always strike first and an ethreal vampire will become an ethreal dragon! Crazy. What other special abilities are out there for wizards?

There are some items which negate ward saves so you could still use your regeneration in those cases but no, its not really worth it.
