Charlo Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Is it just me or does "encarmine fury" in the blood angel rules seem incredible? Perma furious charge in later rounds of combat :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brofist Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 It's decent, I'll say that much. For you BA players- don't loose hope yet. The guy providing these pictures says that your rules will make more sense once you read the ROWs. Fingers crossed for you dudes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TemujinZero Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 The Mastadon rules are super disappointing. Â The bunker rule we heard about previously only happens on an effective 5+, and all you get is a ruined building, which doesn't strike me as that much of an upgrade over a the usual crater. Â Plus you still take hits on units inside and lose the usual victory points. Â The weapon loadout isn't much better than a Spartan, which you can get two of for the price of this monstrosity. Â Two Spartans transport more models, cover more ground, have similar firepower, have better defenses (I'd much rather have a flare shield than a void shield), and have the same number of hull points spread over two separate targets. Â I'd be very nervous assaulting out of the front of one of these things within melta range of a target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noserenda Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I think my major gripe with the Blood Angel Rite of War is the pile of Tactical marines, Seekers and Destroyers i just finished who are better off using the generic legion rules...

God-Potato of Mankind Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Oh boy Encarmine Fury sounds fun. I enjoy playing shock assault with my World Eaters, they may be Legion #3 for the Potato!

Brofist Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Yeah, I am not really feeling these latest legion rules. Haven't seen the ROWs yet, but considering the stuff that got put out in book 2, 3, and 4 its a bit like this high quality FW predator tank:  http://i.imgur.com/tz09qqH.jpg  Hopefully the legion units and ROWs make up for it.

On the bright side, destroyers will be wounding other marines on 2s the turn they charge! Makes them way more useful than in other legions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MajorNese Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Any body have any info on changes the Alpha Legion Headhunters? The new RoW is focused on them and I would like to find out if they still suck That would be my main question too. Otherwise, that RoW would suck. Ironfire is absolutely fluffy, but seems extremely powerful with reduced/removed scatter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TemujinZero Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Is it clear to anyone why the wording to the Blood Angel legion rule is so... wordy. Â Isn't it just +1 to wound in melee? Â Am I missing some limitation? Â Night Lords minus the outnumbering requirement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pavement Artist Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 You could also have used some common sense when thinking about the particular legion involved :p you know they are assault based and that rites of wars are mostly about creating a theme for your army.i don't know what you expected with your half death guard/alpha legion faff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brofist Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Ironfire is kept in check by forcing you to have a unit within 12"- so that would make drop pods and artillery a pretty good combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pavement Artist Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 In what sense? The rules give you a boost over other legions in terms of assault, it's what you could have expected from blood angels. Their rules aren't any less expansive than the dark angels, the theme you chose for your army is just relatively counter intuitive given your choice of legion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquid_O Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Â Justaerin Termi update: Â I cant work out if the plus additional 7 Justaerin is a misprint or not... Yeah I've been thinking the same thing. In the meantime you can fill up a spartan with 12 plus a non terminator character! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
