What do flies do in warhammer

Yeah the RAI is pretty clear and the different translations are clear as well. The wording is just pretty bad either way so I really hope they add it into the FAQ or change the wording via Errata.

I think forcing your opponent to be able to only shoot at one unit would be far too powerful: "Hi here is my unit of 20 Pox Walkers. Enjoy killing all of those while my army is uncontested! My Legions of Dust and Decay. Posted 02 October - PM. Adding my voice to others that the 2nd option is clearly how it is intended to be used. I misread it the first time as well, interpreting it as option 1. Then people mentioned 2. Makes sense though, kind of silly to make your opponent shoot T5 poxwalkers that are -1 to hit.

As the Rot Flies fall upon their prey, leathery wings buzz in a flapping purr of motion and clouds of deathbottle flies fill the air above, choking airborne warriors and clogging engine intakes.

Prehensile probosces and posterior mouth-parts latch onto the faces of their victims, and the Rot Flies let out titters of mean-spirited laughter as they pluck heads from necks and swallow them down. When facing the common soldiery of Realspace , a Rot Fly will slowly digest all meat from a skull before extruding a plague-infested death's head that its Plague Bearer rider can hurl at the foe.

Given the chance, though, Rot Flies will hunt down the heroic warriors that slew their previous incarnations. A special fate is reserved for such individuals -- opening their maws wider than physical law should allow, the Rot Flies swallow their prey whole, keeping them trapped in their mucous-filled abdomens for eternity.
