Chapter Tactics

Faction Rule

Select primary and secondary tactics for Angel of Death operatives each battle.

Angels of Death 💀

Each Space Marine Chapter is a martial brotherhood with its own combat philosophies, suited to the unique skills and temperaments of its battle-brothers. These tenets of war may be clothed in esoteric rituals built up over thousands of years, but remain as brutally effective as when they were first laid down.

When selecting your kill team, select a primary and secondary CHAPTER TACTIC for friendly ANGEL OF DEATH operatives to gain for the battle. Multiple instances of the same CHAPTER TACTIC aren't cumulative. Designer's Note: If you're playing a series of games, i.e. a campaign or tournament, you must select the same primary and secondary CHAPTER TACTIC for every battle (you can still change the secondary with the Adaptive Tactics strategy ploy). CHAPTER TACTIC OPTIONS ARE PRESENTED ON THEIR OWN CARD

Astartes

Faction Rule

Perform two Shoot or Fight actions per activation; can counteract regardless of order.

Angels of Death 💀

These genetically modified superhumans are made for one purpose: war.

During each friendly ANGEL OF DEATH operative's activation, it can perform either two Shoot actions or two Fight actions. If it's two Shoot actions, a bolt weapon must be selected for at least one of them, and if it's a bolt sniper rifle or heavy bolter, 1 additional AP must be spent for the second action if both actions are using that weapon. Each friendly ANGEL OF DEATH operative can counteract regardless of its order.

Angels of Death 💀

This is the Era Indomitus. The Imperium wages galaxy-spanning crusades to drive back the horrors that plague it, and the battle-brothers of the Adeptus Astartes are spurred on by this righteous purpose.

Whenever an operative is shooting a friendly ANGEL OF DEATH operative, if you roll two or more fails, you can discard one of them to retain another as a normal success instead.

Adaptive Tactics

Strategy Ploy

Change secondary CHAPTER TACTIC until turning point end.

Angels of Death 💀

There are few more tactically flexible warriors than the Adeptus Astartes. Supplementing the teachings of the Codex Astartes with their own experience, Space Marines may adjust their strategies at a moment's notice.

Change your secondary CHAPTER TACTIC . Note this ploy only lasts until the end of the turning point, at which point your original secondary CHAPTER TACTIC returns.

Angels of Death 💀

Adeptus Astartes kill teams adapt their strategies on the fly to overcome the foe. Swiftly traded hand signals and abrupt vox exchanges herald a shift in doctrine.

Auspexes come in many forms. These scanning devices can detect motion, analyse atmospheric conditions and reveal heat signatures.

Once per turning point, when a friendly ANGEL OF DEATH operative performs the Shoot action and you're selecting a valid target, you can use this rule. If you do, until the end of the activation/ counteraction, enemy operatives within 8" of that friendly operative cannot be obscured.

Angels of Death 💀

As well as displaying company colours and personal heraldry, a Space Marine's tilting plate serves to protect the bearer in the press of melee combat.

Once per turning point, when a friendly ANGEL OF DEATH operative is fighting or retaliating, after your opponent rolls their attack dice, but before re-rolls, you can use this rule. If you do, your opponent cannot retain attack dice results of less than 6 as critical successes during that sequence (e.g. as a result of the Lethal, Rending or Severe weapon rules).
