New Terrain

Barbed Venomgorse just sounds deadly. But once you get to reading you realize it gives you a 4+ cover save if at least 25% of your model is blocked by it. The downside is, when trying to move through it, you roll one less dice when taking your Difficult Terrain test. Now for the deadliness… It has the ability to move 2D6 towards the nearest non-vehicle unit at the beginning of each game turn, stopping 1″ away. All units within 3″ then suffer 2D6 Strength 4 hits with the poisoned special rule. Ouch!New Terrain New Terrain

Eldritch Ruins just has an amazing look and feel about it. Being that they are ruins, your Psyker units will get some added perks for being near it. All Psyker units within 3″ may add D3 additional dice to their pool when generating a Warp Charge. Additionally, one Psyker unit within 3″ of an Eldritch Ruin can attempt to harness the powers of the ruins to amplify the raging warp storm, costing 1 Warp Charge point. If successful, you can immediately generate an additional Empyric Storms event.

This terrain really and truly does look amazing. The overall design, as well as the rules that go along with them, are going to make for a couple good twists on your already interesting match. How will you use these to your advantage?
