So the new Captain is coming out at 87 points per model, while the Librarian is 93 points, neither of these values include wargear. The only weapon we’re seeing on the list is the Master-crafted stalker bolt rifle and it’s going to cost you 5 points to bring that. Both of these models can be added to the list of units from the Blood Angels, Dark Angels, Space Wolves, and Deathwatch.
- The Dark Angels Primaris Librarians gain the Deathwing keyword and Unforgiven ability.
- The Space Wolves Primaris Librarians generate their powers from the Tempestas discipline instead of the Librarian discipline.
You can get your very own new Captain or Librarian this weekend at hobby stores everywhere!
