We had seen glimpses of these before, but now we have a better idea of how all the new Horus Heresy reactions rules, and core reactions, will work!
With the new edition confirmed by GW, you know there would be some leaks out there! The new edition is shaping up to be big as it has basically been talked about for 2 years now, but at least it is finally on the way! Considering these are rumors and a playtest version, they may not be exactly what comes out in the end but should be close.

New Horus Heresy Reactions Rules Spotted
It looks like a vast majority of characters add to how many reactions you can have, so expect most people to be doing more than one per phase, which could slow things down some, but really adds a layer of control.
The limit being thrown in there is good. As it stops someone from going full power on one reaction phase with traits and has like 5.

The Withdraw Reaction can be really annoying when you’re trying to get off your charges and all of the sudden they get way further away. The Shooting reactions are both really strong. One lets you shoot back and the other helps you survive. So we expect to see plenty of both!
Both Hold the Line and Overwatch are also pretty strong, so reactions will play quite the big role in the new edition!
We added this in just to show how you can get your reactions off and when during a “turn”. Pretty neat sequencing here, and good on GW for being upfront how it all may work.
Here are all the latest rumors on the upcoming rules updates and new models for the Horus Heresy system.
