L30n1d4s Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 (edited) Well, they have redone almost everyone else to Primaris level (in Calgar's case, redone twice!), so I am betting that eventually GW will make a new Chaplain Cassius model and give him tournament worthy rules again. If this happens, what's your prediction about what his rules will be like? I'm guessing he will have slightly buffed Chaplain stats (maybe an extra wound), an AP-2 Crozius, an improved Combi weapon, a 5++ FNP, and two Abilities something like 1) If he is leading a unit, it gains anti-Monster 4+ on its melee weapons and 2) He gains +1A, +1Dmg, and Dev Wounds in melee when his target is a Tyranid Edited October 30 by L30n1d4s Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387025-chaplain-cassius-primaris-predictions/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtleknife Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 I dont think he will have a tyranid specific ability. At least I hope he doesnt, as that would he a complete waste of an ability most of the time. Personally, I hope it is something that reduces charge moves.

Prot Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 He was such a cool character before we lost him. (In game as well as fluff wise). I think he'll be a lot of work to make useful as a Chaplain. I mean they aren't terribly useful right now. I think he'd need First First to really stick out. UM have so many great characters, it would be tough to not see him get the "Njal" treatment.

Casual Heresy Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 If we do get a new Cassius, I hope he isn't primaris. Give him a rescale to modern firstborn size like Crowe and the HH lines, but I really want a model that emphasises how ancient and battlescarred he is. After all this is a man held together by hatred and bionics and half his face being exposed skull, I would think at that point there is very little left to cross the Rubicon Primaris. Rules wise I would hope for nice unique weapons and rules that mark him out as an expert tyranid hunter. But I'd like to see those rules be something generally useful against any opponent, just slightly better against nids. Something like grants the units re-roll 1s to hit/wound, which become full re-rolls against tyranids, for example.

Tacitus Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 If he does show back up he shows up in Deathwatch not Ultramarines. But hes probably not showing back up. I expect to see a different chaplain before I see UM Cassius again Redrandy93 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387025-chaplain-cassius-primaris-predictions/#findComment-6139966 Share on other sites More sharing options...
