Daemon Rumors Finally Up

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

 

I don't play Daemons but I've been keeping an eye out for my buddy who's at work all week.  Looks like a German copy of the codex got uploaded, and much of it has been translated.  Bell of Lost Souls has a link to here:

Starting at post 221, and it goes from there.  The original post (I think):

I guess it might all be an elaborate ruse, but this close to the release what would be the point?  Still, grain of salt, etc.

It was all originally leaked on 4chan in multiple posts from Raziel, and compiled into the fundaemons blog. Most likely legit as he posted some screenshots of the german codex to go with some of the entries. 

 

Sucks that epi got nerfed :(  He added flavor to the army. Maybe he also gets psychic powers or some decent ability in addition to his tally that wasn't listed to make him somewhat viable. If not, heralds of nurgle or GUO it is!

Ahh so you guys knew?  Ok cool, I just didn't see any posts about it.  Didn't see anything about Epidemus, what were his changes?

 

His tally "buff" only applies to units in a 6 inch bubble from him, and only applies to Daemons of Nurgle, not CSM units with "Mark of Nurgle".

 

Also:

 

7+ unsaved wounds = +1 S

14+ unsaved wounds = +1 T

21+ unsaved wounds = 2+ poison

28+ unsaved wounds = 4+ FNP

so it would apply to a CSM Deamon prince with Deamon of Nurgle?

Not sure yet... waiting to see a non-german version.

 

However... Looks like Epi can be taken as a named "herald" instead of taking a whole HQ spot. Heralds are now 4 per 1 HQ spot (instead of 2 per 1 in previous codex), so you could take Epi and 3x Heralds of Nurgle for 1 HQ total.

 

Might be worth looking at.
