Still sorting through it all 2 pts per model upgrade for wyches/wracks/warriors to the trueborn/bloodbride etc.. Bloodbride buffs seem MEH, but good god, the wrack buff!

Casket of flensing autohits now... nice
Hexrifle ap-2 strength 6 and damage 2, ignores Look out sir and mortal on a 6
no rerolls for shatterfield missles anymore
Chainflails is make two attacks for each attack, and is ap0. not as good as we all thought
claws and talons +1 str -1 ap (kymerae?)
I was wrong with a prediction- hektari blades DO give +1 attack
monstrous cleaver is freaking gross! +1 attack, -2 ap 2 flat damage!

yeah is this a joke lol? d3 for EACH 1 ?
Maybe. Maybe not. Keep in mind that the original person who posted the massive leak dump doesn't play DE, and just recently returned to 40k after a hiatus. Also, the rules are written down to be as succinct as possible, after (presumably) one read-through of the codex, so there may be a lot of nuance/specificity missing.

I find it hilarious that the Shardnet and Impailer is outright better than the Huskblade.
Also, the Huskblade still costs points? Seriously?

I'm feeling really positive about the Codex as a whole but there are absolutely some changes in here that I genuinely don't understand. Just some utterly baffling decisions.

Void mine. Pick a spot it flew over. roll D6 for each unit within 6" of that spot, -1 if it has the character keyword. on a 4+ that unit suffers D6 mortal wounds.
that is not a typo... d6.
Say goodbye to tau castles! good god!

For each hit.

I also heard the Haemonculus lost upgrades.
Trueborn, Blood Brides, and the Wrack versions (Hemoxitas in Spanish), cost 2 points extra per model.

mandrakes can be set up out of enemy deployment and 9" away from enemy models. this is before the game turn this is before scout moves, etc...
this is how they normally deploy.
once a game, you can pick em up and put em back down next turn.

Perhaps I've missed it, but has anyone figured out the "insensible to pain" ability for covens ? (I've seen it on the leaked Spanish datasheets). Is it still a 5+ invulnerable save ? Also, based on the same Spanish datasheets, it looks like the Haemonculus lost all weapon options, is it confirmed ?
The spanish leak I saw made insensible to pain for covens as a 5+++ FNP (ignore wounds on 5+), which makes sense with the changes to PFP.

It could all be from the same source mate, so not confirmed.

I am sorry to admit this but I missed what exactly Blade Artist does. Is this the Army Wide rule? What does it do for Vect's sake?

It is confirmed. You can see it in the Spanish rules - there's no equipment options.

From what I understand it's -1 AP on wound rolls of 6....unless you are Blood Bride in which (Wych?) case its -3.

I think it gives -1 ap to melee weapons on a roll of a 6???
But I’m not entirely sure myself. Wyches are back...and that’s before I’ve even seen their drugs chart.

It kinda is, the english and spanish leaks had the points page, and the heami has no options there
And how are the chances that all the upgrades are free?
Plus the spanish ones had the datasheet, no?

There are no upgrade costs for the haemi... not sure if that means the hexrifle is free (ha!) or not available to him (there you go!)
Blade artist is: on a 6 to wound, it is an extra ap-1 for bloodbrides, it is a -3. (so -4 in total)

I'm hoping for a relic hexrifle... though at this point, it may be very unlikely.

I saw the Heamy data sheet and he had a ton of weapon options on it.
When I say ton...I mean 4 lol
