More new 10th Edition 40k Space Marines rules rumors from their Codex are here, including detachments and their bonuses!
We know there will be some significant rules changes from the index cards, including seven new detachments in the 10th Edition Space Marines codex. GW confirmed the book would have rules that any chapter can use, so no matter how you painted your minis, they can now use any detachment’s rules for them!
However, each different detachment will have the flavor of a significant codex chapter. So, it will be nice to know what each one does. Before we go further, these are rumors, and nothing is confirmed until GW says it is, so take these with as much salt as you need!
RUMORS: More New 10th Edition 40k Space Marines Codex Rules Leaks!
These new 10th editions 40k Space Marines Codex Rules leak rumors are from Auspex Tactics (via Discord.)
Auspex is giving out a healthy serving of caution, and good on him for that. Even if this is the most reliable source ever, rumors are rumors, (and even if they are legit and perhaps from a testing period,) GW might make changes before release.
Ironstorm Detachment Rules Rumors
Armored Wrath seems solid as re-rolls are ALWAYS good, even if different than more standard options. Favoring smaller units does seem to be on flavor with the general shift seen across the 10th edition.
On theme with Iron Hands, the leak also features a decent Lethal Hits trait for Techmarines, improving Iron Hands Vehicles, as they should! His breakdown seems pretty accurate, as we all know how good Lethal Hits can be against high toughness units.
For the detachments stratagems, 1 CP guaranteeing Deadly Demise is a solid option, even if not used frequently, Ancient Fury giving a wide arrange of small buffs is solid, and the third one seems good but is obviously pretty specific and restrictive.
Space Marines Codex Vanguard Detachment Rules Rumors
For the Raven Guard-themed detachment, we see a supposed return to something very similar to the 9th edition rule. making your units hard to hit is absolutely fantastic, end of story.
Units and leaders potentially get Infiltrators, which could be disgusting, and we’d be surprised if there are no other restrictions. Even with some restrictions to unit types, it will still undoubtedly be strong if true.
For the stratagems, there are two in the set of leaks. Strike from the Shadows buffing hits and AP, plus forcing a battle shock test, is great! However, it does seem to favor larger units compared to the mobility trait, generally favoring smaller ones. Guerrilla Tactics allows for a standard re-deploy option, which is usually fairly good (and common) in 10th edition.
