Editing Varro Tigurius (section)

==8th Edition==

As of writing, Varro has successfully undergone the same process as [[Marneus Calgar|Papa Smurf]] and has become a Primaris Marine with a shiny new (slightly over detailed) model.

He's been hit by the nerf bat a little. Down to two powers per phase (both casting and denying), but he gains the ability to re-roll powers (including successful ones in case of Perils), gets +1 to Deny rolls and Psychic tests, and he has 3 of the powers from the Librarius or Indomitus discipline. In addition, he has the Rod of Tigurius, which is a glorified Force Stave, granting him +3S instead of +2, not that you want him in combat anyway. On top of that, he can protect an {{W40Kkeyword|ultramarines}} unit within 6" of him (including himself, of course, if he likes) with -1 to be hit during the enemy's Shooting phase (regardless of the nature of the attack, if they have way to make melee attacks during the Shooting phase). This ability, while nice, will not protect ''him'' from weight of attacks, as he lacks any form of invulnerable save or even a 2+ armor save; don't shove him in front of sniper spam. Still, a nice, reliable HQ for his cost and a bit more resilient now that he's a Primaris.

However, the Precognition psyker spell from the Indomitus Discipline could help him be a little more resilient, granting a 5++ and a -1 to enemies trying to hit, and an admittedly okay-ish invulnerable save.
