Rule:
All friendly detachments with a model within 10 cm get +1 CAF.


So who gets the bonus? Is is both troops and vehicles? As far as I recall I only used it for infantry units.

As it's not specifically mentionned that vehicules can benefit the +1 CAF but I would say it doesn't apply to:

- Titans
- Flyers
- Inorganic or Robotic
- More ?

I'm sure Combat Leader at least covers up to Land Speeder, Rough Riders Bikes and the like in pinning class. I'm not sure about Vehicles. I agree with Screams list.

I use Embolden (a psychic power not unlike Combat Leader) to mean vehicles too. You could press for larger units to be effected by this but I don't.

I agree with this list and would add the following..

Super-heavy
Vehicles..

It would make the classes eligible for Combat leader bonus...

Pinning class:
1) Infantry & Light Artillery
2) Cavalry & Walkers

Thoughts?

It should anyway be stated who gets the bonus and who doesn't...

Well, I always read exactly what's written and try not to assume anything.  The rule says "any friendly Detachment with a model within 10cms", so my interpretation would be anything except Titans/Praetorians.  I'd exclude the later because they are not detachments...but even that is slightly wobbly an interpretation that could be argued.

I think it would be safe to exclude Inorganic/Robotic for common sense reasons too.  Flyers too.  Perhaps I'll add to the Gold Errata?

I do not know if my interpretation of the rule is affected by very old rules from the GW days but your interpretation works if you strictly follow the wording. In the end it all doesn't really matter. Just so that its clear who gets the bonus in the end. I think it is a good idea to add a sentence or two so that there is no misunderstanding.

Good call to exclude robots and the like :agree:
