White Scars

In battle, Space Marines swear mighty oaths to destroy the enemies of the Emperor and uphold the honour of their Chapter, and such vows are sacrosanct. When the Angels of Death strike, they do so with the precision of a surgeon and the force of a thunderbolt. Experience and strategic expertise help them to read the shifting shape of the battle with post-human speed and clarity, directing their wrath towards one priority target after another. Command assets are annihilated, leaving the enemy reeling leaderless. Heavy armour, potent artillery and the vaunted elites of the foe’s forces are laid waste with horrifying speed, until the Emperor’s Angels of Death stand victorious over a field of smouldering wreckage and bolt-riddled corpses, and honour is finally satisfied.

If your Army Faction is ADEPTUS ASTARTES, at the start of your Command phase, select one unit from your opponent’s army. Until the start of your next Command phase, that enemy unit is your Oath of Moment target. Each time a model with this ability makes an attack that targets your Oath of Moment target:

• You can re-roll the Hit roll.
• If you are using a Codex: Space Marines Detachment and your army does not include one or more units with the BLACK TEMPLARS, BLOOD ANGELS, DARK ANGELS, DEATHWATCH or SPACE WOLVES keywords, add 1 to the Wound roll as well.

• If an ADEPTUS ASTARTES unit has a second Faction keyword on its datasheet, that Faction keyword is the name of that unit’s Chapter. For example, Marneus Calgar has both the ADEPTUS ASTARTES and ULTRAMARINES Faction keywords, and is therefore from the Ultramarines Chapter.
• You cannot include units from more than one Chapter in your army.
• If your army includes one or more BLACK TEMPLARS units, it cannot include any ADEPTUS ASTARTES PSYKER models, and cannot include any of the following models that do not have the Black Templars keyword: GLADIATOR LANCER; GLADIATOR REAPER; GLADIATOR VALIANT; IMPULSOR; REPULSOR; REPULSOR EXECUTIONER.
• If your army includes one or more SPACE WOLVES units, it cannot include any of the following units: APOTHECARY; DEVASTATOR SQUAD; TACTICAL SQUAD.
• DEATHWATCH*
• Your army can include ADEPTUS ASTARTES DEATHWATCH units, but it cannot include any ADEPTUS ASTARTES units drawn from any other Chapter.
• With the exception of KILL TEAM CASSIUS (see Legends: Agents of the Imperium), your army cannot include any AGENTS OF THE IMPERIUM DEATHWATCH units.
• Your army cannot include any of the following units: ASSAULT SQUAD; ASSAULT SQUAD WITH JUMP PACKS; ATTACK BIKE SQUAD; DEVASTATOR SQUAD; LAND SPEEDER STORM; RELIC TERMINATOR SQUAD; SCOUT BIKE SQUAD; SCOUT SQUAD; SCOUT SNIPER SQUAD; TACTICAL SQUAD; TERMINATOR ASSAULT SQUAD; TERMINATOR SQUAD.
