CODEX: ANGELS OF DEATH

Note: This page will be going through some heavy editing in the near future.

Why play Angels of Death?[edit]

For the pure funzies. It represents the Space Marines from an alternate setting in which the Emperor did not create more legions due to the first being phenomenally successful. The setting also makes the Imperium better off, with nothing like the Horus Heresy to stifle their progress. As a result, the Angels of Death number in the hundreds of millions (what would be the combined sum of all 20 legions).

Army Rules[edit]

Unless otherwise specified, the following abilities described below are common to all ADEPTUS ASTARTES units:

  • Know No Fear: Each time a Battle-shock test is taken for this unit, you may re-roll the result and ignore any or all modifiers.
  • Tactical Supremacy: Units with this ability are eligible to shoot and declare a charge in a turn in which they Advanced or Fell Back.

Stratagems[edit]

  • ARMOUR OF CONTEMPT (1 CP) - Battle Tactic Stratagem

Target: One ADEPTUS ASTARTES unit from your army that was selected as the target of one or more of the attacking unit’s attacks.
