Codex: Angels of Secrecy

[Master Bryss]

For some time now I've been working on a custom Codex for my personal Chapter, the Angels of Secrecy. You people know your power armour, so hopefully you'll be able to give me some help with improving it.

 

 

 

I've changed every single unit in many ways, with the exception of Terminators, who are about the same. Some units are new, some have received a massive overhaul (mainly the Dreadnought.)

 

C+C very welcome.

 

EDIT: Link refuses to work, because it only seems to want to link to GW. Odd.

The linking refuses to work for me, so I'll just post the URL, but not as a link. C+P into your browser:

There, no program can change that! Get rid of the spaces though.

Only skimmed over most of it, but have a few comments/questions/suggestions.

 

First and foremost, why strength and toughness 3?

 

The librarian seems a little powerful for the points cost, maybe tone him down or increase cost a bit.

 

Instead of the secret guards defensive stance stopping them using relic blades, why not reduce their base attacks to 1 instead? Or alternatively use it like Eldar Dire avengers and reduce your opponents base attacks by 1 (to 1 minimum)? Just a thought

 

I do like terminators paying extra for TH/SS upgrade but the wording makes it sound as if you either get all TH/SS, or all Lightning claws with no option to mix the two. Is this intentional?

 

Finally, your chapter masters "never say die" ability is a bit over powered, particularly when combined with 4 wounds AND eternal warrior. He potentially has 7 wounds maximum which sounds crazy when you say it out loud. i wanted a rule on one of my custom characters that when he only has one wound remaining, his armour save becomes invulnerable. May be an option here.

 

All in all i'm impressed by what I read, and as its your creation feel free to ignore anything I just said.

 

Cheers, Roachboy

First off, thank you for reading it. This forum really doesn't seem to like non-regulars!

 

I've altered NSD to always get up but only 1 wound and it still only works once.

 

Taken your suggestion on the Stance.

 

The Librarian's WS and BS are an error, this is now fixed for both him and the Chaplain.

 

Finally, they are meant to be S/T3. The chapter is less full Marine and more Lutheresque.
