Halo: The Banished Codex

The Banished is a interesting army to build upon as its fluff creates a interesting relationship to the Covenant. If you don't know who they are, it is because they are relatively new to the Halo universe. Essentially they are a breakaway group of Brutes (And their subordinates) lead by Atriox who has a reputation for being formidable and cunning.

The Banished offer a completely different perspective on the Brutes and how they function as a whole.

Like its bigger cousin, The Covenant Codex, discussions are more than welcome for this codex too. The Codex is currently under construction and more updates will be added in the near future.

Army Special Rules

Atriox's Wrath- The feelings of betrayal and resentment channels through not only Atriox but through his subjects as well, his ideology comprised of racial nationalism and Jiralhanae pride creates unrelenting fury against all those who stand in the Banished' way, smashing and crushing those whose hubris got the better of them. Any unit with this rule or that contains a model with this rule must take a Leadership test during each fight sub-phase before attacks are made. On a success, that unit can re-roll failed To Hit rolls for that fight sub-phase.

Dual-Wielding- Like the Covenant, numerous weapons from the Banished can be wielded by Elites and Brutes one-handed, allowing them to fire two weapons at once. A model with two different ranged weapons with this special rule may only choose to fire one in the Shooting phase. If the weapons are the same they may be fired as a single twin-linked weapon of that type. If the weapon is already twin-linked to begin with it may also re-roll failed rolls to wound.
