New 40k Datasheets From Blackstone Fortress SPOTTED!

Janus 40k stats 40k Datasheets Blackstone Fortress

Janus Draik

Janus is able to chew through infantry models if he manages to wound them. He’s got a decent pistol with -2 AP and 2D flat…that can kill a Terminator or finish off a character. He’s only S3 but his sword is AP -4. The AP is ridiculous but at only S3 and three attacks, he probably won’t be doing much in combat other than guaranteeing a few Guardsmen kills.

Just like Elucia Vhane, he’s got his own Concealed Archeotech Weapon that lets him dish out D3 mortal wounds practically for free. He can also reroll ones for himself and embark on any Imperium transport like the inquisition.

Espern Locarno

espern locarno 40k stats

Espern is essentially a mortal wound engine that can target units for his smite. However, he only knows smite and it only has a range of 12″.

Pious Vorne

pious vorne

pious vorne 40k stats

Pious Vorne especially hates Chaos. She’s got a special flamer that can roll 2d6 when hitting and discards the lowest when she targets enemy Chaos units.

She is a literal glass cannon so don’t expect her to stay on the table too long. She can reroll failed hits when she charges an enemy, but with a 5+ FNP and a 7+ armor sv, she won’t last.

Taddeus the Purifier

taddeus 40k stats

The neat thing about Taddeus is he actually buffs Adeptus Minisotum and Astra Militarum units for an extra attack. He also has a built-in reroll for himself and has a S5 AP-1 power maul. Not bad considering he’s only a 3PL character.

UR-025

ur-025 40k stats

UR-025 is coming in strong with a MK1 assault cannon. Talk about a relic! It’s only got four shots at S5, but isn’t that bad considering all the other bonuses he has. He can heal a wound each turn, comes with a 3+ sv at T5, and last but not least, has a S10 power claw.

The bad news is that he can’t be taken in any detachment and remain battle-forged (besides a support auxiliary).

Rein & Raus

rein and raus

rein and raus 40k stats

Rein and Rauss have some really cool rules and for the most part, are really fluffy. The sad fact is that they’ll get squashed like bugs in the first battle round. These guys come loaded with rules that let them deploy almost anywhere, they can operate independently, reroll failed hits/wounds, and even move after shooting. Again, these guys are T3 with a 4+ sv IN COVER.

A single Guardsmen unit has enough volley fire to take these guys out in one round of shooting.

Dahyak Grekh

Dahyak Grekh 40k statsDahyak follows the deepstrike rules which is nice as he can drop right on top of objectives. He’s got a 4+ sv in cover and can target characters. Too bad his weapon literally does nothing. S4 rapid fire 1 is no reason to take a character.

He does have a mini-mortal wound dealer with concealed booby traps which is nice. You may cause your opponent to react a little differently. Bottom line, he’s a cheap disruptor unit.

Amallyn Shadowguide

amallyn shadowguide 40k stats

Amallyn is in the same boat as Dahyak and the Ratlings. She can deepstrike, has a built-in reroll against Slaanesh units, and can (basically only throw grenades) if she advances. Her Battle Focus excludes her only shooting weapon…Phase Crystal is nice as she’s got a 4+ invulnerable and ignores other models/terrain.

Lastly, she has a 3+ sv in cover. More than likely, you’ll be rolling that 4++ more though.

explorer points

These guys all have decent stats when you compare them to their points at the end of the day.

What do you think about the adventurers joining Janus on his journey into Blackstone? Is there one character you’ll be bringing to the 40k tabletop? Let us know in the comments of our Facebook Hobby Group.
