angrom Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 What seem to be the consensus about the chaplain mechanic with the strat. The wording seems to imply that we can choose to chant any of the litanies when using it. Considering the prohebitive cost of the strat and the abscence or chaplain upgrade I would gladly accept that small token. What is your opinion?

Corvus Fortis Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 1. There's no universal rule that prohibits chaplain from chanting litanties, which he doesn't know. 2. Rule on the Chaplain's datasheet states that when he chants his prayer at the start of the command phase, he needs to know litany. 3. Stratagem don't have this restriction. My conclusion - yes, you can chant any litany from the list.

The Woodsman Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 I haven't seen the wording in the Codex, so can't say for sure, but it could make sense for GW to allow that option considering our Chaplains only know the one Litany and have no way of knowing more or getting better at chanting them.

RedemptionNL Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 It's exactly the same as the Commanding Oratory strat from Codex SM, which has the same questions floating around. RAW it seems you can recite any litany. I doubt that's the intention, but they haven't erratad that one either.

Grimlock Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Well I have a question about this since he knows one, if you chant or attempt to chant in the command phase and you go to a different phase, say charge phase can he chant a second?

RedemptionNL Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 No, the strat requires you to select a chaplain that hasn't recited a litany this turn.

Cryminysakes Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 IDK fellas... "This model knows Litany of Expulsion and ONE OTHER litany..... it may recite any Litany IT KNOWS..." that hasnt already been recited by another model. Seems pretty cut and dried to me, you get one extra Litany from the list Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/371272-new-codex-mechanic-consensus/#findComment-5731827 Share on other sites More sharing options...
