Berzul Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 If I were to run a Successor Chapter using the pick 2 system, would that lock me out of First Founding units and warlord traits? To be more precise The 2 trait system does NOT work for the codex. So you would not be playing DARK ANGEL successors. You would be playing as a Generic Space Marine Successor. If you played as a Dark Angels Successor, youd only lose named characters, relics (unless you spend extra cp), and thats it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, until the new Space Marine codex comes out, Dark Angel successors are supposed to use the rules in Codex: Dark Angels and not any of the rules in Codex: Space Marines; it's one or the other. It's not too far to guess that once the new Space Marine codex comes out that DARK ANGELS will be like any other First Founding <CHAPTER>. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, suddenly I find myself thinking, though... What if the Successors change, to just having the basic units from the codex? Meaning, what if Dark Angels Successors change, to now EXCLUDE dark angels exclusive models? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt_Reaper Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 I should have specified, using the new codex. I am unfamiliar with the trait system and chapter units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berzul Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 I should have specified, using the new codex. I am unfamiliar with the trait system and chapter units. Sorry then, I do not know. Are the rules for the new codex out yetz in any case? I figured everyone was sti playing with Codex Dark Angels + Chapter Approved + Ritual of the Damned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt_Reaper Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 As I understand it the new codex comes out in October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UtariOnzo Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 (edited) We’re in a holding pattern right now until the codex comes out. None of our Indomitus models even have the relevant Wing rules (except the Master can be given the Inner Circle keyword via CP) In terms of successors, I suspect it’ll work like it does in Codex SM currently, with those wanting to use the DA/BA/SW picking Inheritors trait similar to how those wanting First Founding specific relics do Edited August 2, 2020 by UtariOnzo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
