Games Workshop - Warhammer 40,000 Index: Xenos 1

Product Information

It includes 137 datasheets covering the Ork, T’au Empire, Tyranid and Genestealer Cults range of miniatures, with overviews of each army. Updated abilities, psychic powers, weapon profiles and points values allow you to field your collection in games of Warhammer 40,000. There’s also a blank army roster and detachment roster, which you are free to photocopy and use when building a Battle-forged army in Matched Play games.

He has Psychic Mastery as his mandatory warlord trait, giving him a second known power, two denies and a mighty three casts, letting him Smite, Castigate and use a utility power. That’s a bargain for 90pts, considering the popularity of Yvraine in a similar role in Eldar lists at 115pts. Weird f This is super nice, as you don’t have many minis, and getting a 4+ Fell No Pain (FNP) for all mortal wounds will give you a save against basically anything your opponent throws at you. Plus, most models already have an invulnerable save as well, so they are pretty stout on defense. You really want exactly one of the powers and nothing else. Most plausibly, you have something you want to give an invuln to that’s starting on the board with your army.

Topic info

Same deal as above – the Scorpius is a big winner here owing to its ability to fire twice and the new blast rule. It took a minor increase in the new points, and is still worth consideration. The Grav-flux bombard getting upgraded to blast doesn’t do a ton for it but it likelise is really nasty against large units of power-armor models. Index: Forces of Xenos

While this is a decent change to the rule, we’re not sure it’s a big enough change to really NERF them, as you can still get re-rolls for basically everything anyways. Rapid Regeneration is huge as, most of the time will give you a 5+ FNP (when in Synapse range), for only 1 CP. These Index datacards contain profiles for every xenos unit in the new edition of Warhammer 40,000, accompanied by fresh army and Detachment rules for each. For 2,000 points, you can take two characters and two retinue units, which could be a pretty big part of your army. You also can not elect to have your army led by an Assassin operative. This is pretty insane, as every unit in your army (with the keyword) can get huge buffs. Plus, all you have to do is pass an LD test, and even the Legionaries have LD6+, meaning you should statistically pass, and even if you do fail, it should only be one model falling.Ordos are the inquisitorial sub-factions, with each unit having an keyword to replace with your chosen one from a list of four (named characters obviously have specified ones). Angron’s World Eaters are the bloodthirsty, maniacal warriors you know and love, joining the new edition with myriad Blessings of Khorne. Yes, they do, but the contents of the stratagem list for the Inquisition makes them something of a special case. We think most Inquisitors are going to show up as lone agents in other armies, which would normally make them unlikely to be your warlord, making traits and relics kind of academic. However, GW have cunningly foreseen this, and the first and most important stratagem on this list is as follows: Let us know in the comments of our Facebook Hobby Group, and make sure you enter the latest monthly giveaway for FREE today! Plus, if you manage to roll twelve 5’s and 6’s, this will be pretty strong. Even some 4’s thrown in there wouldn’t be too bad.
