Stratagems

eitherPlayer

Codex Discipline

1 CP
ShootingFight

Holding to the teachings of the Codex Astartes, these warriors unleash disciplined volleys of firepower.

When:

Your Shooting phase or the Fight phase.

Target:

One ADEPTUS ASTARTES unit from your army that has not been selected to shoot or fight this phase.

Effect:

Until the end of the phase, each time a model in your unit makes an attack that targets an enemy unit, re‑roll a Hit roll of 1. If that target is auspex scanned, re‑roll a Wound roll of 1 as well.

Guided Disruption

1 CP
ShootingFight

Employing auspex data to reveal weak points in the foe’s formation, the Space Marines exploit these to sow confusion and suppress their targets.

When:

Your Shooting phase or the Fight phase, just after an ADEPTUS ASTARTES BATTLELINE unit from your army has finished making its attacks.

Target:

That ADEPTUS ASTARTES BATTLELINE unit.

Effect:

When an enemy unit is auspex scanned as a result of those attacks this turn, if that enemy unit does not have the MONSTER or VEHICLE keywords, until the start of your next turn, it is pinned. While a unit is pinned, subtract 2 from that unit’s Move characteristic and subtract 2 from Charge rolls made for that unit.

One ADEPTUS ASTARTES unit from your army that has not been selected to shoot or fight this phase.

Effect:

Select the [LETHAL HITS] or [SUSTAINED HITS 1] ability. Until the end of the phase, weapons equipped by models in your unit have that ability while targeting an auspex scanned unit or if the bearer has the BATTLELINE keyword.

Shock Bombardment

1 CP
