Jolemai Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 The current version of Apocalypse has some neat touches, one of which being the Finest Hour rule. A Finest Hour is similar to a Warlord Trait albeit on a much more impressive scale, whereby it gives the Warlord a timely boost in a bid to tip the balance. At the start of any of your turns, your Warlord may declare he is using his Finest Hour. The Warlord gains a 3++ and Eternal Warrior for that turn, it able to order an All Out Attack (one unit makes a triple movement, can't shoot/run but can charge) and he gets his buff. This is either done by rolling on the Exemplar table (think BRB Warlord Traits, but better) or, in the case of a Space Marine army, can use the relevant option on the Sons of the Primarch chart. For Blood Angels, it means that the Warlord changes his unit type to a Flying Monstrous Creature for that turn. In our previous codex and/or the sixth edition rules, the obvious choice was Mephiston as it made him nigh unstoppable. However, with the current codex and ruleset, who would be your Warlord?

Ushtarador Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 To be honest, I'd much rather roll on the table, the things you get there are sooo much cooler ^^ being a FMC is not nearly as awesome as tripling your attacks, or getting +2 Attacks Ap1 and Instant Death! :D (DANTE WITH 12 ATTACKS BASE YES!)

Leonaides Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Depends on if you need to take down a flier and you've given your guy an inferno pistol or something...

Xenith Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Erm. Karlaen so he ignores unwieldy, or the sanguionor so AP2? But probably Astorath, who benefits from every rule gained, and jump pack DC with triple movement, rerolling hits and wounds? Yes. Is the FMC only if they have a jump pack?
