Lautrec the Embraced Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago (edited) Cool, they even added some new Oaths of Moment (The Blade of the Just, Reapers of Lives, Alone and Forgotten). Maybe this will persuade me to start playing 3.0 ... edit: I really like Endryd, but having T5, Eternal Warrior, D3 fist and providing Infiltrate for the whole detachment seems like a lot for only 165 pts Edited 9 hours ago by Lautrec the Embraced Agramar_The_Luna_Wolf 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386877-blackshields-rules-for-the-horus-heresy/#findComment-6135689 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astartes Consul Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Good to see continued PDF support running to the timetable and that they keep adding things. I was expecting just a rewrite of the old rules, so the extra Oaths are nice. Alone and Forgotten is very cool. An Allied datatchment of up to six Centurions is a modelling opportunity I'd love to take. jaxom and Jings 1 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386877-blackshields-rules-for-the-horus-heresy/#findComment-6135691 Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Allied datatchment of up to six Centurions is a modelling opportunity I'd love to take. I didn't catch that on my first skim. It's incredibly cool. Basically a throwback to the old Action Movie marines. Playing with those alongside and/or against Militia/Mechanicum/SA would be like rocking lore Marines.

This supplements are better made than official ones. With more care.

Ripper.McGuirl Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago Woah, yeah, Endryd Haar is an absolute monster. And also doesn't seem to limit your Oath choices in any way, so you can really cause some ruckus. I'm going to have to look at making my proto-carcharodons with him.

Gorgoff Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago Oath Lost and forgotten plus the Taint of Xenos= Jedi. Or Sith Then you have a bunch of Centurions running around on their own, all carrying around some pretty nasty melee weapons. They even thought of “If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine,” because the player gets tons of victory points for every Centurion they kill Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386877-blackshields-rules-for-the-horus-heresy/#findComment-6135729 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoriyaSchism Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago Oh, they got rid of the las carbine and the stub carbine. I guess there's no point in having the las carbine around when both las options have the same AP stat.

Gorgoff Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago I guess so as well. Their heavy stubbers and such things are way better than the militia ones. I wonder why they felt the need to do so.
