amazarak Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Do rapiers get preferred enemy (everything) when Alpharius is on the board? The crew has the Legion Astates rule, so I think so? Can anyone clarify? Thank you! Mazzy. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/315902-quick-alpharius-question/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Crew has Legions Astartes so yes, they gain any benefit that having that USR entails: IE: RG and AL can infiltrate them.

amazarak Posted November 11, 2015 Author Share Posted November 11, 2015 Thanks Slips. Wonder why more AL lists don't have Alpharius. I'd proxy him with just a standard Mk IV trooper. "That's Alpharius... he looks just like the rest of my army..." Mazzy.

Lord Asvaldir Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Forgeworld really just needs to make a model for him, his artwork on his rules page in the red books looks sweet, a model based on that would be awesome.

Slips Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 1) Hes a 400+ Point Character all his own. Most people would rather have a Typhon which can possibly do more, quicker and for cheaper. Also, 25% LoW Limit. 2) Making models takes time. Of the current Primarchs we have rules for, Dorn, Alpharius and Corax are the only ones without Models. Patience in this regard. We might get a sneak peak/release in February. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/315902-quick-alpharius-question/#findComment-4221775 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memento Of Prospero Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Making a model for Alpharius would defeat the purpose I think. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/315902-quick-alpharius-question/#findComment-4222737 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excessus Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Making a model for Alpharius would defeat the purpose I think. Well, in The Serpent Beneath Omegon's forces use optic camouflage to appear as normal (although bulky) humans when in crowds, it's not too surprising that Alphy could use that tech to appear as a normal marine until he chose to reveal himself.

Xenith Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Making a model for Alpharius would defeat the purpose I think. His description says he wears his ceremonial armour when he wants to. Letting the enemy think they know exactly where the primarch appears to be is a weapon in itself.

As an Iron Hand my repy is as such : and so is a bolter, and I know which one I would rather have at all times ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/315902-quick-alpharius-question/#findComment-4242451 Share on other sites More sharing options...
