At the start of the first battle round, before the first turn begins. Until the end of the first turn, all units from your army that are wholly within your Deployment Zone, other than Titanic units, receive the benefit of cover, even while they are are not entirely on or in a terrain feature.
A unit that is already receiving the benefit of cover gains no additional benefit from this Stratagem. These help to reflect the unique strategies used by the Reborn on the battlefield. If a Stratagem is used before the battle to upgrade a unit e. Exalted of Ynnead and you have an army roster, you must note on it which Stratagems are used to upgrade which units. Use this Stratagem in the Shooting or Charge phase, when an enemy unit is destroyed as a result of an attack made with a ranged weapon by an YNNARI model from your army.
Use this Stratagem at the start of the Fight phase. Until the end of that phase, add 1 to the Attacks characteristic of models in those units whilst they are drawing strength from death. Select one enemy unit. Until the end of that phase, when resolving an attack made with a melee weapon by an YNNARI unit from your army against that unit, you can re-roll the wound roll.
Add 3 to the total for that Psychic test if any enemy units were destroyed this phase. Use this Stratagem at the start of the Morale phase. Use this Stratagem before the battle. Those units gain the Strength From Death ability. Your army can have one additional Relic of Ynnead. All of the Relics your army includes must be different and be given to different models. Use this Stratagem during deployment. If you spend 3 CPs, you can set up two such units in the webway instead.
This Stratagem can only be used once per battle. Use this Stratagem before the battle, after nominating your Warlord. Each Warlord Trait in your army must be unique if randomly generated, re-roll duplicate results.
You can only use this Stratagem once per battle. This Stratagem cannot be used on the same model more than once per battle. That unit can still shoot and charge this turn.
Until the end of the battle, units from your army with the Strength From Death ability draw strength from death, even if a unit has not been destroyed in a turn. Until the end of that phase, when resolving an attack against that unit, subtract 1 from the hit roll. The Fly keyword does not negate movement penalties for heavy weapons- it allows you to leave close combat and still be able to shoot but not assault that turn.
The upgrade effects are listed in the weapons and wargear section, in the small sub-table at the end. You have to hunt for them, but they're up there.
Battle Focus allows you to move and to advance during the movement phase, and then shoot normally in the shooting phase- though it doesn't with Heavy weapons. Normally, you would take a -1 to hit with Assault weapons when you advance and you wouldn't get to shoot other weapons at all.
Ah okay so works the same as before just instead you have to move before shooting, will make Eldar able to get up in the enemies face very quickly.
More or less, yeah. It's still a very good ability and makes infantry on foot quite fast. The fact that it also benefits bikes now who I think have it? Does this mean i can't move and advance and then shoot a heavy weapon platform? Or does this mean that i can still advance, except will suffer the -1 to hit with a heavy weapon platform?
Also the Harlequin spell to make a unit move again, can they also advance again with that? Or just move? They way i read it is, Guardian squad cant advance and shoot the heavy weapon platform, but they can move as normal and shoot it at So kinda a nerf to guardians with the heavy weapon platform, but only pts for a unit of 10 with a Blance. But the whole move like tau battlesuits move, shoot and move back was abit too much to be honest.
Also for the harlequins, once again the way i read it is that they can move as if it was the movement phase, including advancing, as when you choose a unit to move, you declare the advance. I don't see any reason they shouldn't be able to advance as part of the movement; it would prevent them from charging that turn, but otherwise be entirely legal.
In the Psychic Phase, if successful, the Harlequin unit gets to move and advance like it is the Movement Phase. In the Charge Phase, the Harlequins can now declare a charge thanks to their "Rising Cresendo" special rule allowing them to charge after advancing. Oh yes, certainly- turn 1 charges are very much a thing now. Hmmm I would of taken it as if the heavy weapon could still fire as the unit is counted as not moving except for the heavy weapon so it can still fire but at -1, hopefully and FAQ or the codex sorts this.
That means all weapons except heavy weapons are allowed to ignore the unit's actions during the movement phase. Since a "normal" unit cannot advance and fire heavy weapons, Eldar cannot either. Yeah, I think it got missed in this one and some of the other photoscans as well. Summary version:. Yeah I really can't be angry at any of the tank upgrades, cheap as they are.
Star Engines doesn't grab me, but I didn't particularly like Enhanced Aethersails on DE vehicles, either, though some people swore by them. Vyper also doesn't have the transport keyword.. A Vyper is no transport vehicle, it was never one…. A guardian will be 8pts but a reaper will cost 36 due to the base 5 cost and the 31 point cost of the reaper launcher, and you can use blade wind if you take three voters as a unit otherwise they use the base movement.
So Vypers cannot get Vectored Engines…. That makes me sad, especially when the Harlequin and DE Vyper sized vehicles get it. If Vypers cannot purchase vehicle upgrades, I wish they would get Vectored Engines automatically as part of their base profile.
Has anyone else noticed that Dire Avengers are 17 points per model? Yeah, I won't field them atm. Hope their points are adjusted when the real codex comes out since they are cool looking dudes.
Notify of. SO the Ynnari seem just better, right? SInce you can put most other eldar in that army anyway? Vote Up 0 Vote Down. June 1, AM. Sadly, GW has disappointed on both ends. Here are the issues with the codex:. It is a blatant copy-paste from the 5 th edition codex. There was clearly no review by any GW authors.
At least the legal team wasn't too lazy to review it and made sure 'Eldar' was changed to 'Aeldari'. They kept copy-pasted the 5 th edition codex lore on Dolmen Gates that does away with the intertialess drives. This is by far my biggest gripe and proof that GW did not have this codex reviewed at all. Here' the tidbit on the Dolmen Gates from the new codex:.
As a race bereft of psykers, the Necrons are incapable of warp travel, and without access to the webway, they would be forced to rely once more on slow-voyaging stasis-ships.
A former GW author mentioned to me that many other GW did not like the Dolmen Gates and wanted to slowly reintroduce the intertialess drives without outright retconning the Dolmen Gates. These were both post-5 th edition.
Worst of all, a developer for Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2 directly mentions the intertialess drives for the Necrons. So we now have a more serious canon conflict, because both the Codex and the new BFG game that is more aggressively reviewed conflict with each other, and both are released in the same year. The new codex doesn't acknowledge newer lore mentioned recently, like the nature of the Ymga Monolith, even though it's sitting named on the map.
As aside, the idea that the Necrons have the technology to duplicate matter, create weapons with an infinite energy source, but somehow can't develop intertialess drives is just absurd. For some reason, some in the community try to argue against interialess drives by arguing they're too OP and allows the Necrons to invade anywhere.
Such an argument is baseless, because warp drives and the webway allow any faction to do the same thing. Every faction is always a threat to every other faction, and the only thing they're lacking is numbers.
I wish there was some way I could complain to GW about this, because the quality of the codex is just incredibly sub-par and I feel cheated.
A codex often pluralised as codexes by Games Workshop, though the grammatically correct pluralisation is codices , [1] in the Warhammer 40, tabletop wargame, is a rules supplement containing information concerning a particular army, environment, or worldwide campaign.
Codexes for particular armies were introduced for the second edition of the game. The third edition rendered these obsolete, and a new series began, including introducing codexes for battlezones and campaigns. Until superseded by newer versions, the 3rd edition and later codexes remained valid for the newer editions of Warhammer 40, Games Workshop no longer produce campaign or battlezone codexes, instead releasing 'expansions'.
