Eisenhorn31388 Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 So am I correct in reading IA:V2 SE that the Contemptor and Contemptor-Mortis Dreads are not available for BA? Kind of wanted to get one as a centerpiece for my army... Sicaran it is I guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nova_chron Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 We can take them they have different rules I believe and that is why they are in a different place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucien Eilam Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 You can't take it using that unit entry, no. The Blood Angels Contemptor entry from IA Apocalypse 2013 is technically still valid, in that's it has never been superseded by anything, but it has wargear and special rules that refer to the old Codex Blood Angels. It's pretty obvious how to replace things (Blood Fists = Power Fists, Red Thirst = Furious Charge) so I doubt many people will object to you using that, but it might cause problems at tournaments. I don't think the Blood Angels have ever had access to the Contemptor-Mortis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marine7312000 Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 I e-mailed FW a while back and this is the response I got: Thank you for your email. As the Blood Angels and Space Wolves Contemptors are quite distinct from the standard Contemptor Dreadnought their rules can be found In Imperial Armour Apocalypse.

Joasht Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I'm curious; how do the BA Contemptor Dreadnought rules differ from the regular ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marine7312000 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 The BA Contemptor adds the Red Thirst Special rule and makes the default weapon a pair of Blood Fists. It can swap one blood fist for a twin-linked heavy bolter, multi-melta, twin-linked heavy flamer, frag cannon, twin-linked autocannon, plasme cannon, kheres assault cannon, or a twin-linked lascannon. It can upgrade both blood fists to blood talons. It can only swap the storm bolter in dread CCW for a heavy flamer or meltagun. The only other thing I can see at a quick glance is that it can take a magna-grapple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
