==List of Specialties== Deathwatch uses the term "specialty" to refer to what other games call "[[class]]es." The specialties available in the main rulebook are: *'''[[Tactical Squad|Tactical Marine]]''' - All-rounder/command. *'''[[Assault Squad|Assault Marine]]''' - Close combat jump troop. *'''[[Devastator Squad|Devastator Marine]]''' - Heavy weapons specialist. *'''[[Techmarine]]''' - Engineer/physics-chemistry scientist. *'''[[Librarian]]''' - [[psyker|Psychic powers]]. *'''[[Apothecary]]''' - Medic/biology-genetics scientist. Rites of Battle, First Founding and Honour the Chapter contain "advanced specialties" that can be taken in addition to the normal ones: *'''[[Blackshield]]''' - effectively a Chapter rather than a Specialty; makes your chapter a seeeecret! *'''Champion''' - a hero-hunter. *'''[[Chaplain]]''' - buffing & "spiritual guidance". *'''[[Dreadnought]]''' - walking death-machine. *'''Epistolary''' - super-[[Librarian]]. *'''[[Forge Master]]''' - super-[[Techmarine]]. *'''[[Keeper]]''' - one part emissary, one part kill machine. *'''Kill-marine''' - solo operator, can [[derp|squad mode with himself]] - This specialty is actually designed for use in [[Dark Heresy]]/[[Rogue Trader]] in the event your cell of Acolytes/crew of Space Bums don't want a [[Grey Knight]] [[Mary-Sue]], but still want to have that one guy who makes all the GM's combat encounters into a lame joke. *'''[[Watch Captain]]''' - The Hero, and the guy who gets all the bitches. *'''First Company Veteran''' - All round badass who's seen it all and done it all. First Founding provides Chapter-specific Specialties: *'''[[Deathwing]] Veteran''' - free Terminator Armour. *'''[[Ravenwing]] Veteran''' - free bike. *'''[[Sanguinary Priest]]''' - super apothecary, also buffs Blood Angels & Successors. *'''[[Librarian Dreadnought]]''' - fuck-yeah. *'''[[Scout#I Can't Believe It's Not A Scout™|Wolf Scout]]''' - recon tactical specialist. *'''[[Wolf Priest]]''' - cross between a Chaplain & Apothecary... broken as fuck in-game. *'''[[Veteran Squad#Tyrannic War Veterans|Tyrannic War Veteran]]''' - Ultramarines nid-killer. *'''[[Honour Guard]]''' - EPIC [[Mary-Sue]] ''(though the book attaches them to the Ultramarines, it does say any "codex" space marine should also have access to this specialty)''. Honour the Chapter describes: *'''[[Veteran Squad|Sword Brethren]]''' - Black Templar version of the First Company Veteran, more close combat focused. *'''Emperor's Champion''' - A tougher [[Black Templar]] with a selection of mission-long buffs and a one-time upgrade that turns you into the toughest motherfucker on the Kill Team but it lasts only one mission and costs 500 xp that you are not getting back. *'''Tempest Blades''' - A special class exclusive to the [[Storm Wardens]], who wield massive two-handed [[Power weapon|Power]] [[sword]]s around on the battlefield dueling worthy enemies, which will eventually end in their deaths. The Outer Reach has a single: *'''Dead Station Vigilant''' - Deathwatch servants of the Dead Cabal.
