So many good Relics to choose from!

  • Tarentian Cloak gives the bearer Eternal Warrior and It Will Not Die special rules. Seems pretty good for only 35 points.
  • Helm of Censure gives the wearer Preferred Enemy and allows re-rolls for failed to Hit and to Wound against Chaos Space Marines for 30 points.
  • Sanctic Halo can only be taken by a Space Marine Captain and gives him Adamantium Will and Feel No Pain.
  • Soldier’s Blade is a AP2 melee weapon that uses the strength of the user.
  • The Standard of Macragge Inviolate and Vengeance of Ultramar are note worthy as well.

The improved Warlord Traits Table will definitely change some battle outcomes!

  • Noble Visage allows the Warlord and all friendly units within 12″ of the Warlord (that is part of the Armies of the Imperium) to re-roll failed Pinning, Fear, and Morale checks.
  • Warden of Ultramar gives the Warlord the Counter-attack special rule.
  • Paragon of War gives the Warlord Preferred Enemy.
  • Master of Strategy allows you to add 4 to the Seize the Initiative roll.
  • Master of Tactics gives you the option to discard an active Tactical Objective. If you do, you can generate a new Tactical Objective.
  • And last but not least is Adept of the Codex that fives your Warlord and friendly units within 6″ the Split Fire special rule.

So what does everyone think? What is your favorite Relic and Warlord Trait?

The Gathering Storm: Rise of the Primarch

Cadia, the long-standing symbol of Imperial defiance against the relentlessly encroaching tides of Chaos, has fallen to the fury of Abaddon’s Thirteenth Black Crusade. Craftworld Biel-Tan has been shattered, along with the dreams of their restoration to prominence. Chaos is ascending – all across the galaxy, raging Warp storms cause havoc as reality itself twists in agony.

Hope, however, remains. An alliance of Ynnari and Celestinian forces has found common ground in their desire to ward off Chaos. These heroes of the Imperium and warriors of the Aeldari race through the webway to Macragge, there to attempt the unthinkable – awaken Roboute Guilliman, Primarch of the Ultramarines, and seek his leadership in this desperate battle for nothing less than survival. The Storm Gathers…

The Book

Rise of the Primarch is the third book in the Gathering Storm series. This 136-page hardback introduces the Triumvirate of the Primarch – a trio of heroes including Roboute Guilliman, Primarch of the Ultramarines – and draws the threads of the thrilling story of the Gathering Storm together in dramatic fashion. Heroes new and old rise in defense of the Imperium, and the universe of Warhammer 40,000 will be changed forever.

The Rules

As is appropriate for such an apocalyptic tome, Rise of the Primarch is packed full of rules content for Warhammer 40,000:

– Datasheets for the Triumvirate of the Primarch – field Cypher, Grand Master Voldus of the Grey Knights and Roboute Guilliman in games of Warhammer 40,000;
– Warlord Traits and Relics for Ultramarines forces;
– Formations allowing you to field The Fallen, the Grey Knights’ Bulwark of Purity, the Victrix Guard of the Ultramarines and the Triumvirate of the Imperium;
– Daemonic Adversaries – these special rules allow you to field Grey Knights against enemies that are not necessarily Daemonic in nature, meaning your Grey Knights can be fielding without breaking narrative;
– 5 Echoes of War missions, detailing key battles from Rise of the Primarch;
– 3 Cataclysm of War missions – these represent desperate battles fought during the Gathering Storm.
– In Pursuit of the Fallen – special objectives to be used when fielding Cypher, units of the Fallen, and models of the Dark Angels faction.
