Games Workshop - Warhammer 40,000 - Kill Team: Legionaries

Product Information

Tzeentch – Empyreal Guidance – Retain a single 5+ normal hit as a critical whenever you make a shooting attack. Fuelled By Hate: While this operative has fewer than half of its wounds remaining, each time it is activated, add 1 to its APL. This operative can only perform this action once, and cannot perform this action if it is within Engagement Range of an enemy operative.

Some worship Tzeentch, the God of Magic and Change, channeling the psychic powers of the Warp in the endless quest for knowledge and improvement through mutation. The usefulness of these two ploys coupled with how CP hungry this team is rewards players for taking either an Undivided Leader or Icon-Bearer. The Champion has a Ballistics and Weapon Skill of 2+for most of its weapons , and for its weapon loadout, you can choose between a Plasma Pistol/Tainted Bolt Pistol (go for plasma here) and one of four melee weapons.

Heretic Astartes are post-human warriors with the natural strength, speed, resilience and mental acuity of such beings. Slaanesh grants Unnatural Agility which adds Triangle/1 inch to an operative’s Movement characteristic. Its Flensing Blades score critical hits on a 5+, which is of course really good, but the actual purpose of this operative is to be found in its Abilities and Unique Actions.

Keep in mind that this ability can only be used ONCE per Turning Point, so you can’t double up on two free ploys per TP. If three or more enemy operatives are incapacitated in combat by that friendly operative, you score 1VP.

This is a standard krak grenade with the Armour Penetration 1 rule as well as the Indirect special rule. Additionally, his Daemonic Aura reduces enemy Fall Back actions by 2 ⬤, effectively preventing them from escaping. Armed with a standard Bolt Pistol and heavy hitting Double Chain Ax that comes with 4 attacks, +4 hit/wound, 5/7 damage, Reap 2, Ceaseless when the attacker, and FINALLY Relentless if it has performed a Charge Action during that activation. If you haven’t already figured this out, the Legionary operatives are utterly terrifying to face in combat. A lot of teams don’t give players much choice with regards to who will be their leader, and in the case of Legionnaires you have a genuine choice to make.
