Warhammer 40,000/Tactics/Talons of the Emperor (30k): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:42, 24 October 2016

So we've had rules for the Legions, the Primarchs, and the Mechanicum. It was only a matter of time until the Emprah's BFFs got rules, and here they are.

There are a number of reasons for playing the Golden Bananas

Because you like gold
Because you like Eagles
Because you like Eagles made out of gold
Because the Emperor was right all along
Because Erebus can fuck a cactus
Because you want to take Phoenix Terminators with a half-Primarch statline as troops
Universal 2+ saves and 5+ invuns minimum
You want to model Pillerstodes
Because one day you might be able to take the EMPRAH as a LoW
Because you want a three man(?) squad that can take out a dozen space marines

Preternatural Skill: If the majority of enemy models in your have equal or less Weapon Skill compared to yours, you get +1I. Considering theres no such thing as a WS6 squad you might as well assume you're always I5
The Sodality: A Custodians unit coherency range is 3" and they always use their usual LD for regrouping. Representing how Custards fight as individuals rather than a squad.
Inviolable Psyche: Forgeworld dancing around ATSKNF again, you are immune to fear, and re-roll DtW.
Bulky: Not a rule specific to the Custodes, but they all have it.

Custodian Armour: Artificer Armour, Refactor Fields, and move through cover rolled into one pimping suit.
Guardian Spear: AP2 +1S on the charge, and reverts to a power sword after, every time you roll a 6 to hit with it, you get another attack. In addition, it's a got an Assault 2 Ap4 bolter hidden inside.
Preasidium Shield: Provides a 4++, which is re-rollable in CC.
Sentinel Warblade: A specialist power sword with rending. In addition, it's a got an Assault 2 12" range bolter hidden inside.

As these are temporary rules, no HQ is provided. However you can use one squad of either Sentinels or Custodians.
