Sneak Peek at New Drukhari Codex

Well, I assume the Nightshields only apply to shooting, so the PfP 5+ actually does improve on them slightly.

I really hope that Scourges get a rule that allows them to ignore heavy weapon penalties.

I don’t mind a bit of redundancy in pfp when it comes to vehicles. You can look at it two ways. The vehicle starts with buffs turn one or it doesn’t gain later in the game. I prefer to start with the 5+.

Also +3 attacks is pretty cool! That means that charging your raider isn’t just a gimmick. It can kill!

I look at it as a 5++ against shooting turn 1, and a invul of 6+ against HTH until turn 4, then a 5+

And with chain snares, 6 attacks at str 7 -1 AP.

Haemunculi can heal pain engines and grots D3 wounds per turn

Kabalites and Wracks 8 pts per model, Wyches 10

I wonder if Haemonculi losing customisation means that Archons will be stuck with Splinter Pistols?

Archon buffs Kabal and Incubi and looks like he can take a blast pistol

Anyone able to see what the army-wide rule does; aristas del filo? Or what the changes are (if any) to Insensible to Pain? Could be important!

Archons have kept all their weapon options. I think Succubi have, as well.

Archons can still get blast pistols and agonizer/venom sword/huskblade/power sword

Chances are it's the new aeldari rule that gives us malus when fighting Slaanesh hahaha

I think it translates to something like “artists on the edge” but I can’t see what it does.

I had a debate with someone where I said I didn’t think we would be given an army wide 6+++ but perhaps this is it???

maybe its the +1 army wide attack we are getting

Cronos is still useless. Same everything except for attack. And some heal, kinda like it was earlier.

Or bonus AP

Google says it's something like "Cutting edge artists"

Lol this is what it’s all about. A load of us trying to work out Spanish! Haha

The English rule is Blade Artists. Still not sure what it does, though...

and to all those naysayer saying redundancy for the invul......think about it!!! you will be able to do your soup and keep your invul thats some good news! no? (i'm just kidding here)

Pain Engines are Core, Skimmers are not. Incubi Core.

So it definitely sounds more close combat based.

Exploding 6’s? Struggling to think what they could add as an army wide buff.

Time for the Archons to sharpen that blade and get in the fight!

So it looks like vehicles have improved and Hamonculi can heal stuff... whilst everything else is garbage.

Agnisers are still crap, the Glaive is still crap, Huskblade has actually gotten worse.

Oh, and a pile of our weapons are Heavy now for no apparent reason.

Sigh. Yet another codex where changes are made via a roulette wheel.

Unfortunately, he apparently tried too hard to sharpen his Huskblade and instead managed to break the thing.

Drazhar got even more tougher it seems. 4++ and -1 to damage if i read this correctly.

Quote :

Agonisers under Poison Tongue wound on 3+ with AP-3 and give +1 to Combat Attrition. Thats improvement.

It looks like Drukhari will be combat army.

actually from everything we have seen so fr it seems like cc is buffed more or less and ranged combat is nerfed across the board...

The heat lance is heavy now?? And the haywire blaster? It’s safe to say I didn’t see that coming. That leaves scourges in a really weird place. I don’t get it.

Some here were convinced that our boats had lost their invul saves, so I’m glad to see that they were wrong. And about the transport capacities too! Very happy to see that change.

Hilarious that the archite glaive is still 1 damage. I guess GW want succubi to cause death by 1000 (or like 6) cuts.

Black Heart
+1 Round for Power from Pain for all Black Heart kabal units.
In a real space raid detachment all Mercs also count as being on an extra round for power from pain.
+1 LD for all Black Heart units.
One reroll to hit per unit with this obssession.


The relic is basically a lieutenant aura for your Archon that works for Mercs in a real space raid detachment
