Shroud of Heroes

25 pts

Formed from the death shrouds of some of the Chapter’s greatest warriors, this robe inspires its wearer with the might and selflessness of those who came before.

ADEPTUS ASTARTES* model only. The first time the bearer is destroyed, roll one D6 at the end of the phase. On a 2+, set the bearer back up on the battlefield as close as possible to where it was destroyed and not within Engagement Range of any enemy units, with 3 wounds remaining (if the bearer was Battle-shocked when it was destroyed, it is instead returned with its full wounds remaining).

Stubborn Tenacity

15 pts

Even for a Chapter as famously stubborn as the Dark Angels, this warrior is known for their intractable nature.

ADEPTUS ASTARTES* model only. While the bearer is leading a unit, each time a model in that unit makes an attack, add 1 to the Hit roll if that unit is below its Starting Strength, and add 1 to the Wound roll as well if that unit is Battle-shocked and below its Starting Strength.

Weapons of the First Legion

15 pts

Beneath the surface of the Rock lie vaults within which weapons of antiquity and terrible power are stored.

ADEPTUS ASTARTES* model only. Add 1 to the Attacks, Strength and Damage characteristics of the bearer’s melee weapons. While the bearer is Battle-shocked, add 2 to the Attacks, Strength and Damage characteristics of the bearer’s melee weapons instead.

Pennant of Remembrance

10 pts

This hallowed banner records the names and deeds of legendary members of the Deathwing, stoking still firmer resolve in those who fight beneath it.

ANCIENT* model only. While the bearer is leading a unit, models in that unit have the Feel No Pain 6+ ability. While that unit is Battle-shocked, models in that unit have the Feel No Pain 4+ ability instead.
