Dark Angels rumors. update: Codex leaks, pg 28

[Isiah]

We don't know that yet.

[Syphid]

The Terminator Weapons list could just be for IC's, not Sgts.

[Vissah]

Thanks. Let's hope we can combi all our terminators!

[Isiah]

My guess is no. The unit's entry will have all the available weapon options/upgrades for that unit. The Terminator Weapons list will be available to only those units that give them access to it.

 

And that's usually termy-armoured ICs.

 

The mechanics are as the current Codex.

[Syphid]

I think that is a reasonable prediction, Isiah.

[JJD]

Wow it's as I'd hoped - Lion's Blade strike force fires overwatch at normal BS :woot:. Not so useful v non-assaulty armies, but still, not too shabby either.

 

@ CL I very much doubt Deathwing will get Grim Resolve as they will retain Fearless.

 

Cheers

Belial has Grim resolve so it's a decent shout that the other DW will

[Frater Cornelius]

Check the rumour thread in NR. I think someone got his Tau into our book

[Volt]

So can Librarians still take bikes?

 

 

Because I'm thinking of having a Libby hop on a bike, make a B-Line right into the enemy formation and immediately drop a permanent nerf on the enemy's best unit.

 

Trolololol

Looking at these rules, we really are the "Troll Angels" of the Imperium.

In the codex preview on belials page I didnt see inner circle or fearless, gosh I hope inner circle is still there for I enjoyed fearless HQs

[deadangel101]

Fearless is probably part of the Deathwing rule, or it's a special rule of the formation or detachment.

[aura_enchanted]

Deathwing redemption force special rule:

 

Summon the deathwing: all units in your army gain a free teleport homer!!

 

Sacred standard:

Relentless, fc, fearless

Reroll morale and pinning checks

(So no more fnp bubble and devestation dakka nonsense)

Ravenwing and deathwing banners are unchanged

 

Warlord traits:

Same as before though the order has been jazzed up a bit, turbo/run trait bonus now also applies to charging

 

Dark talon: rift cannon s10 ap2, on doubles on the scatter it causes a vortex

Bomb removes models from play if they fail a leadership check, in addition to old rules

 

Nephilim: black swords now s7 ap3 and have missle lock

Avenger hasn't changed

 

Ravenwing strike force rule:

 

All bikes (and jet bikes) reroll their jinkerinos save (jink), if you use the strike force detachment you don't need to make reserve rolls

 

Land speeder vengeance: 36" baybeh

Dark shroud: units that charge from beneath her bubble are immune to over watch, icon of caliban grants stealth + fearless, still grants shrouded.

 

Deathwing command squad:

Now has a sgt as a free upgrade

Champion has new special rule: glory in death

 

Sammael in sableclaw is now a chariot, he can cc while onboard and preform a drive by vector strike of sorts

 

Spells:

Primarus: mind wurm

Seeds (see previous leaks)

Rage blessing

Blast attack wounds on 4+ always

2d6+2-leadership wounds

Furious charge

Auto fear for a full two turns of play

[deadangel101]

We still haven't seen whether or not we retain the librarius conclave...

[Frater Cornelius]

I have that sinking feeling that all the awesome rules we read are tied to Formations, that will be fairly hard to field to due bad unit comp. And some tournaments may ban Formations, killing competitive DA. Just a thought.

[MadMek83]

Nephilim is tad disapointing I was hoping s7 ap4 Avenger, but re-roll s7 missiles are good enough... but Dark Talon... ouch, wow... never see anything like comming. I am still sprinkling salt though...

[aura_enchanted]

more:

Not really, standard attacks are relic blade profile, smite is 1 attack powerfist (no unwieldy) at initiative unlimited use.

[Bryan Blaire]

A lot of these rules being posted seem to be posted in incomplete forms. Please be aware.

[Syphid]

Does it still have the dice roll effect?

[SvenONE]

Leaked image of DWCS lists it as 200 points which partially confirms a fear i had which is that our DWT points would drop RELATIVE to SM rather than in line to their cost.

 

So while they, DID go down, we may still be potentially paying more than our SM brothers, which means that they value our "chapter tactics" more than them. I cant wait a week!!!

[Dark_Master]

We still haven't seen whether or not we retain the librarius conclave...

I believe we will, it's still on the Black Library and even mentions Interromancy, think the new discipline has been planned for a while.

It seems I will use DA rules for my Death knights ;)
