Are Verlo Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 On page 46 and 47 in Vigilus book 1 the Rubric marines are confirmed to be on Vigilus. So let us speculate on «the comming Rubric Marine Specislist Detatchment», from now RMSD ;-p I guesstimate it will be centered around Rubric marines and the less used 1KS units such as exalted sorcerers. But as we see in Vigilus Defiant, some of the 7th ed IG formations have returner such as Emperor’s wrath and Emperor’s blade. So brothers, what do you divine?

Skerr Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 That's great, can you be more specific on what it says? That does sound exciting though. After reading a synopsis of Magnus vs Robute on Luna I did get a sense that Rubrics were like stormtroopers from SW or red shirts from classic ST (disposable) though I guess you could say that about any faction taking losses in the lore.

Are Verlo Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 There are just a few sentences about rubrics fighting IG tanks. Some Rubrics got crushed by massive tank charge, but all the tanks got melted by inferno-bolts. Wild guess: RMSD lets you spend 1 CP before the battle to increase the damage of inferno bolters up to damage 2. Or perhaps reroll 1’s to wound, wound rolls of 6+ causes a mortal wound or similar effect. 6+ would synergize well with VoTLW, perhaps too good, might be wound roll of 6? Like the veteran intercessors or kataphron stratagem you spend CP before the battle starts to give a unit a buff for the entire game.

Prot Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I think most of these (not all) are medicore rules, more for fluff than anything else. So I tend to agree with the +1 AP idea. That could be a thing, but I really think it might lean towards survival too. Some sort of twist on All is Dust affecting large sections of the Scarabs and Rubrics. I'm guessing there will be 2 Strats so it makes sense if one is offensive, and the other defensive. A Psychic one would be good... FnP on Rubrics for a turn... wow. I'd love that. Shooting twice if you don't move? Lots of cool possibilities.

Panzer Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Iirc they are Black Legion Rubrics so I wouldn't expect anything for TSons.

Tyriks Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 If we get a TS specific detachment, I hope it would unlock new spells for us (maybe instead of warlord trait or relic). Something that isn't just more MWs, preferably.

CrystalSeer Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Iirc they are Black Legion Rubrics so I wouldn't expect anything for TSons. After reading the vigilus narrative in it's entirety, I respectfully disagree. The rubrics on vigilus are mentioned far before the entrance of harken prophesying Abaddon, making them separate entities. Further, the writings go through great pains to mention a narrative for almost every faction with a current codex, including death guard and thousand sons. In vigilus 1, almost all xenos and imperial factions mentioned got some rules support. It is logical that vigilus 2 will do the same with chaos factions. I think the only codexes not mentioned at all so far are necrons and Tau.

Sonoftherubric21 Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Every faction will get detachments *eventually*, and given that the theme follows the 7th ed ones I imagine we will get one for.... 1) Rehati Coven 2) Rubrics and/or Scarab Occult 3) Exiles. This will be interesting.... I hope that this reference in the lore on vigilus 2 does, in fact, translate to one such ruleset. This would certainly be a huge boon to someone like me who plays Rubrics almost every game of taking the 1k sons. If/When we do get something I would imagine that as stated by Prot one will be Offensive, the other will be Defensive. I believe all of the current detachments have the same allotment of items in 1 Warlord Trait, 1 Relic, 2 Strategems. (I want to say that is correct off hand...) Gives me alot of excitement for the future, Vigilus 2 (and really future campaigns) have incredible potential!

Prot Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 The Thousand Sons are mentioned but the Rubrics are definitely referred to as “black clad”. We don’t know what the author intends when they mention Tousand Sons or Deathguard.... they could mean the Legions themselves or representation. However i think considering the scope of this, almost everyone should make an appearance.

Raven1 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Unless GW wanted to do things that only effect Codex: CSM they could do a rubric detachment that TS could use too.

Prot Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I still think since our last topics on this discussion that there’s an excellent chance we’ll see something. I wouldn’t be surprised if this push goes beyond Vigilus in the next year and involves some even bigger players. I think it would be really cool,to open up the storyline like that.

CrystalSeer Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 I've been watching the previews as they went, and have seen a ton of great chaos stuff coming out, but still haven't seen much in the way of helping dusty Bois. Anyone still holding out hope, or seen some stuff that may complement us well?

CrystalSeer Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Disloyal 17 I presume is red corsairs for +8 cp. What's the combo for dark apostle? Or is it just because it looks cool?

Or is it just because it looks cool? -1 to hit against Rubrics, and +1 to invul save stacked is pretty fantastic. CSM Rubrics (elite slot) can get both the new apostles -1 to hit from the prayers, and the weaver +1 invul save. Makes them a dead'ard unit. Stick them mid-board with those buffs and have them bolt targets all game. Dig em out once they get engaged in combat. (My thoughts so far at least!)
