Archaeinox Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 I just got off the phone with the rep to do preorders and want #s for my gaming store. Death to the False Emperor: Each roll of 6 to hit = make an additional attack in melee. Khorne Berserkers pile in twice and fight twice each Fight Phase.

balordazul Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Interesting did they explain if Death to the False Emperor had a restrictor like only triggers vs forces with keyword Imperium? Also any info if the GD models had more than one wounds or anything extra?

Iron Father Ferrum Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Actually, I was a heretic hiding in the plain sight the entire time. My first army back in 3rd Edition was Alpha Legion.

balordazul Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 If this rule ends up to be true that is a very nice boost for CSM in melee without being over the top. It will be neat to see how the rule is worded and the qualifiers in it. I do hope it is not limited to fighting the imperium. Also this is very simple and use to use on the usability side of game design.

Khornestar Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 The melee weapons on the skull champions got even better, if this is the case. Thrashing about wildly with power fists is going to cause a ton of damage. But the pile-in part is just as important. Not really sure how often it would come into play, but I'm just imagining a big unit of Berzerkers spreading out and dragging everything around it into combat.

Sception Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Pile in, if it works like aos, must move each model closer to the individual enemy model it was closest to before piling in, and must maintaon coherency. it's not likely that you'll be able to spread out very much.

Khornestar Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 If you set up the unit correctly during the movement phase, it shouldn't be that hard, but the maintaining coherency might really limit it. Not necessarily a bad thing, though. Shouldn't be easy to pull it off. Plus, just have multiple units of Berzerkers charging all over the place and everyone's gonna be in combat eventually. :) I sorta like the new Death to the False Emperor rule, but it seems like it would only work against Imperials, given that name.

Sception Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 To be honest, I kind of preferred VotLW to DttFE. A slightly stronger effect, but limited to our hated enemies. But either way. Keep an eye out for any characters or psychic powers that buff to-hit rolls, if it works like AoS those bonuses happen first, so a +1 to hit would give you extra attacks on 5+ and so on.

Midnightmare Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 I thought I was the only one that liked the VoLW rule on t'interweb I have to admit, I do hope that the Black Legion keep some form of Endless Hatred a la Traitor Legions. What can I say, I love to Hate!

Khornestar Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 An analogue to the dude who plants a Khornate icon and buffs everyone will be most welcome. A Khornate dark apostle who can ride a juggernaut (or at least a bike or a jump pack) would work just fine, to that end. I like the current VotLW very much, but if it's gone it's gone. Exploding 6's for Berzerkers especially is going to be so glorious.

Daenerys Targaryen Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 So it's the old 'Axe of Khorne' boost from the original 3rd ed codex, but now unit wide?! Tasty! :D Of course, the big question remains - how viable will it be to make into combat with shooting supposedly being even deadlier now?

Of course, the big question remains - how viable will it be to make into combat with shooting supposedly being even deadlier now? faction-wide, thousand sons have the rule too. Also, unlike the old axe of khorne, the extra attacks probably don't themselves generate extra attacks on further sixes.

Aside from a few exceptions like the Leviathan Dread it rather looks like shooting got toned a good bit down imo.^^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/333891-death-to-the-false-emperor-and-berserkers-in-8th/#findComment-4755647 Share on other sites More sharing options...
