Chaos codex release date 8/5/17

[DreamIsCollapsing]

Their is a confirmation that your army can get One relic for free (like the 2+ armor for Daemon prince for Iron Warrior) AND you cand spend one command point to get more relic (exactly like Space marine). 

 

Also i have translate some more Legion specific stratagem and the 3 new dark Hereticus spell on the Codex Chaos space marine subject. 

[The Traitor]

 

I'm seriously hyped for this codex, the EC look awesome and the IW are not bad either... I hope that renegades don't get advance and charge though, that is what WE should be getting!!! Renegades should have a less specific trait, as the renegade chapters are so varied within themselves. But this rumours have been pretty accurate, so I guess it'll be that...

[Sception]

Eh, I'm ok with renegades getting advance and charge if world eaters get +1 attack on the charge.  Sure, their charges might not be quite as easy to pull off, but they'll be much more devastating, especially for berzerkers.

Wow the second one is sick! That means basically all vehicles and monster will get automatically 1d3+3 mortal wounds! o_O

[Archaeinox]

Not questioning our French friend, but I think there may have been some fuzzy words in the picture. That seems a bit much. I could understand rolling OVER toughness.

Well I guess I need to build some spawn with Commissar hats. Because that spell is a must for my Night Lords vs precious, vulnerable, little guardsmen.

Okay just read the rest of the translation in the other thread. If the EC Stratagem really works like that without any restriction....then I officially declare EC as the winner of the CSM Codex. Especially considering the Slaanesh Stratagem (shooting twice) and the Slaanesh Psychic Power (5+ FnP) and the fact that Noise Marines are already awesome on their own. :D

6 is most probably automatic failure.

Still a 5/6  chance to deal an average of 5 Mortal wounds lol

[MoGuy]

Where are these powers from? Are they rumoured to be from a Tzeentch discipline or something?

[Prot]

That is an absurdly good power. Both are. It's going to be mandatory to carry anti-psyker again. I have to wonder if the wording is off.

Generic Heretic Astartes discipline afaik.

[ChaosReigns]

The Iron Warriors are looking pretty awesome. Yes, it's disappointing to see a duplicate of the Imperial Fists Chapter Tactics as their Legion Trait, but their relic is excellent, and their unique warlord trait and stratagem both seem very useful and fluffy.

 

Weaver of Fates will be a great boon to big blobs of Rubricae and Scarab Occult, especially if you have Magnus or an Exalted Sorcerer nearby - 3++ re-rolling ones is nothing to scoff at.

 

Honestly all of the new spells seem really good so far. I'm doubly happy I finished painting up Zardu Layak last night to use as a Sorcerer. A couple squads of Possessed supported by a Sorcerer and a Dark Apostle sounds positively depraved. :P

 

If the Word Bearers get an Accursed Crozius as their unique relic I'll know that the new CEO of GeeDubs can hear my whispered prayers. Ha ha

Not questioning our French friend, but I think there may have been some fuzzy words in the picture. That seems a bit much. I could understand rolling OVER toughness.

 

It may be my bad english. But as i understood it the result of you roll must be > of the Thoughness. So a vehicule can't ever be victim of this spell (or maybe just on six). 

 

Make sense, the more Thoughness you target has, the more it's difficult to turn her into a Spawn. But yea most of this world are more "imagined" than actually read thanx to the bad scann. 

 

And yes it's from the Dark Hereticus spells. Slaanesh got one power (already officialy said on EC teaser), so does Tzeencht. Dunno about the nurgle on. 

 

Kind of sad. Nurgle & Tzeencht will have 7 spells (i expect 6 spells in the DG & TS codex). Slaaanesh only 1. 

[Minsc]

So you need to roll over their thoughness? That makes more sense and makes the spell less... broken.

 

5/6 chance to do 5 mortal wounds to anything with T6+ is not balanced.

[DreamIsCollapsing]

Yep that's it. Sorry for the confusion of my below average english :s 

 

Edit : I just saw i use "below" instead of "above"

My only beef is the need to reserve points for Spawn. I understand from one side, but on the other hand I think with some abilities they should be free.

 

Other than that Waaaagggghhhoooo!

Got a email today, Black Library web site is the right release date.  Not the one in the White Dwarf - they tend work three month in advance if I remember.

 

That's literally what I said. The date has been amended on the BL website for well over a month now.

 

Anyway, I'm sad to see the age of marks giving bonuses disappear.

 

EC rules look cool. IW look a bit disappointing (but they were pretty dull in the Traitor Legions supplement as well so that's hardly surprising, although we don't have the full picture yet).

 

Very interested to see all the relics

It's no problem buddy thanks for translating to English for us. The game has a way of bringing folks together internationally!

[Brother Aiwass]

And tomorrow the best legion!

[Bulwyf]

Am I the only one underwhelmed by the Night Lord's rumored ability? I haven't seen leadership and morale play hardly any role in games in 8th so far.

[Lord Abaia]

I don't know. I've only played against a few armies in 8th, but I've been able to make Grey Hunters and Necron Warriors turn tail and run without any special Legion rules yet.

[Goreshed]

Can we please get over the oblits? Seriously. We get it. Everyone gets it. Everyone has a bunch of them or converted a bunch of them because they were an end all be all of the last editions. GW has turned it around and made oblits a medium ranged power as opposed to a long range one. We are returning to the early days of chaos were we didn't have answers to long range units, we were an assault force and you know what assault forces didn't have? Long ranged weaponry. Time to start thinking about using those oblits outside of the box.

 

Am I stoked about all of the IW release? The building bit is a tad pointless as I have yet to see a single game where anyone used building rules. But I supposed if someone wished to use them and then on top of that wished to also spend units in destroying that building then I could see it as a bonus. I would have much rather seen it act more like tank hunters used to.

 

But all in all I'm just glad every legion is getting love and you know what is better? GW is standardizing the armies. They are giving us our Legions, they are giving the loyalist scum their chapters, they will most likely give orks their clans and nids their hive fleets but at the end of the day they aren't charging us anything to do that. No force org limits, no extra points, no nothing. This means that when you actually sit down and play a game the other guy doesn't have a leg up on you just for playing a certain army. They are finally saying "here play that army you love, we wont make you pay more".
