The 120-page codex includes all the usual good stuff: full rules for the new AdMech units, updated datasheets for the army’s existing range of models, expanded lore, and bestiaries.

No specific release date was given,but GWsaid it wouldbe one ofthe “first new codexes coming in 2022”. Now the primary focus of your crusade is to gain scrap for your meks (which as we all know make the best stuff) by killing vehicles that do not explode lol. We’ll have more details in upcoming guides but, for now, you shouldget hypedabout theNecrons’ new ‘Command Protocols’ mechanic.The Sisters’ new centerpiece character model, Vahl is given a lot of attention in the updated codex, and has been designed to synergize with whatever you stick in your Sisters of Battle army. So how do the Orks fare in this brave new world of insanely powerful codexes and incredibly killy units? Many armies rely on massed D2 firepower from mid-quality weaponry to back-fill their damage output when they find themselves up against a VEHICLE heavy list, and against Orks that’s suddenly massively less viable.

Loota’s– their deffguns are now dakka 3/2 which means they always get at least 2 shots now instead of their unreliable D3 shots, plus with the more dakka stratagem they can count as being in short range.Orks come in several flavors, from the vehicle-obsessed Speed Freeks to the brutal Goffs to the new squig-riding Beast Snaggas. For margin

Their trait remains pretty much unchanged from the 8th edition book – it gives them light cover against ranged attacks made from more than 18” away, and they can shoot or charge (pick one) after falling back. For a whimsical look at the history of Warhammer 40k Codexes, we recommend Codex Compliant by YouTubers Snipe and Wib, which has been poking and prodding at Codexes from old editions of the game for over five years! I am not a huge fan of this rule, and with my hackles up from what’s come out in some of the recent books, I’m very, very afraid of it.As expected, anything with the WARBOSS keyword, which comprises Warbosses, Deffkilla Wartrikes, Beastbosses (foot and mounted), and some of the Named Characters are now one per detachment – this is in line with every other codex.
