4 LEGIONES ASTARTES KILL TEAMS 1

5 THE LEGIONES ASTARTES The Legiones Astartes are the original unit formations of Space Marines, created during the First Founding by the Emperor of Mankind on Terra in the late 30th Millennium. Founded before the start of the Great Crusade that reunited the scattered worlds of humanity beneath the banner of the Imperium of Man, while the Unification Wars were still raging on Terra. A Space Marine Legion was a frontline force of shock-infantry comprising tens of thousands of Astartes warriors armed and equipped with the finest wargear the Imperium could supply. A Space Marine Legion can number anywhere from 10,000 to more than 250,000 Space Marines, as well as the Legion's logistical support forces and fleet elements. A force of a hundred of these genetically and biochemically-enhanced transhuman warriors could quell a rebellious city in solar hours. Thousands could conquer a world in only solar days, and tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands wielded at once were the doom of entire species, capable of reducing alien civilisations to mere dust and memory in a span no greater than the single course of Terra's orbit around the Sun. Founded amid the bloodshed of the Unification Wars of Terra that swept the Emperor of Mankind to dominion over the cradle of humanity, the original military formation of the Legions was the division of twenty numbered units of enhanced warriors, organised very much along the lines of the Thunder Regiments that proceeded them in the Emperor's service and who they would eventually replace. Much of the discipline and organisation of the early Astartes Legions owed greatly to the ancient and proven Terran patterns of military strategy, hierarchy and functions as laid down in the revered texts of the Principia Belicosa of Roma and Krom's fragmentary New Model that had survived in the hands of the tyrants of Old Earth down the blood-stained generations of the Age of Strife. To these venerable treatises the Emperor and His commanders had added their own genius and created a sturdy but adaptable strategic framework that spoke to the fundamental strengths and superhuman abilities of the Astartes themselves. At the outset of the Great Crusade in circa 800.M30, many of these early Legions were raised along the so-called "Terran Pattern" of organisation as formulated by the Imperium's Officio Militaris. Of the twenty original Space Marine Legions, eighteen would survive to grow into vast forces by the end of the Great Crusade in the early 31st Millennium; as for those that did not (the IInd and XIth Legions), nothing can be said of their fate in current Imperial records. Nine of these Legions would continue to stay utterly loyal and faithful to the Emperor of Mankind during the Horus Heresy and thus they serve as the genetic forbears of all current Loyalist Space Marine Chapters of the present era. The Space Marine Legions and their Primarchs were the Emperor's primary military force and most important advisers, respectively, and were intended to be the political and military speartip of the Great Crusade. LINES ARE DRAWN The Allegiances of the Legiones Astartes are perhaps more fluid than any commander would admit. While the broad lines of the Horus Heresy were drawn at the Dropsite Massacre of Isstvan V the truth is far from simple. Many legions suffered a crisis of faith in the leadership and purpose of Imperium of Man. Some Loyalist legions discovered small enclaves of renedages which were either destroyed or managed to escape their parent legion to join the Warmasters forces. The Traitors themselves largley purged their forces of their sizable loyalist elements at the betrayal of Isstvan III. Of all the Legiones Astartes only one turned from the Imperium as a complete force. The architects of the Horus Heresy, The Word Bearers of Primarch Lorgar Aurielian.

6 Choosing a Kill Team CHOOSING AN AGE OF DARKNESS KILL TEAM In the Galaxy spanning wars of the Age of Darkness no two kill teams are alike each is assembled to accomplish a specific vital mission, regardless of the odds or the enemy forces stacked against them, and each contains individuals of exceptional and unique talents that can mean the difference between defeat and victory. ALLEGIANCES The Horus Heresy is a time of total war where brother fights brother. When choosing your force it must belong to one of the following, gaining that keyword: LOYALIST: Steadfast sons of the Emperor fighting to deffend the dream of the Great Crusade TRAITOR: Iconoclastic followers of Warmaster Horus that wish to tear down the Imperium of Man There were exceptions of course. The Blackshield warbands fight primarilly for survival so they do not have to choose an Allegiance unless the player wishes. TACTICS In addition to the 6 generic tactics found on Kill Team Core Manual (KTCM) pg65. the legiones Astartes have their own unique doctines of war. Thus each Legion plays differently due to thier own indoctranation and the desire of their Primarch. Each legion has 5 new tactics including "The Primarch's Strategy", a one use tactic that effects ALL legion models in your kill team. JUMP PACK RULES - In open terrain a model with a jump pack can move over other models and open terrain as if they were not there. Within single story, or terrain that is assumed to be single story, a model with a jump pack moves as if they did not have a jump pack. - A model with a jump pack may land upon terrain features, where appropriate, but must pass a difficult terrain test or fall off the terrain feature. Note that this test cannot be avoided or automatically passed via tactics or legion specific rules. Roll the dice. - When making a charge, if successful, roll a dice, on a 4+ the target is knocked back D3 inches. The charge is still counted as successful and the attacker may pile in as normal. Battle-forged Kill Team In addition to the rules laid out on KTCM-pg62, you must adhere to the following restrictions/ alterations for legiones astartes kill teams: All the members of your kill team must have the same LEGIONES ASTARTES (?) keyword. Your kill team must consist of at least six models You may not include more than two sergeants in your legiones Kill team, one of whom must be your leader A legiones kill team must include a tactical marine, of any type, for each other type of marine in the force. Example: A team of 8 marines could comprise of 1 tactical sergeant, 1 tactical support marine, 2 tactical marines and 4 of any other type of marines Some legions specialise in unique forms of warfare and therefore will have an 'Alternate Formation' that, if the player wishes, replaces this rule while allowing the force to be Battle-Forged Your legiones kill team cannot cost more than 150 points. Legiones Astartes Specialists In addition to the specialists already available to them, KTCM-pg66, you may also choose from the following 4 unique legiones astartes specialists: Heralds, the Vexila bearers and voices of their Primarch.

11 HERALD SPECIALISTS Leader Specialists As the wars of the Horus Heresy spread to consume the galaxy, billions fought and died under the banners of warlords they had never seen or heard firsthand, and even among those such as the Legiones Astartes, near-religious fervour became common for those artefacts touched by Primarch, Warmaster or Regent, and given to a chosen emissary as a sign of authority and favour. The Blackshields, having obscured their heraldry or cast aside former masters were no different, their strange sigils or blackened flags becoming totems of destruction and the foresworn.

12 MORITAT SPECIALISTS Leader Specialists Said by some to be no less than death incarnate, and by others to be dishonourable murderers with no place in the Imperium s order of battle, Moritats are lone killers operating outside the Legion s usual command structures at the behest, or at least sufferance of its high commanders. Regarded by their fellow Astartes as dangerously unstable outcasts perhaps created by some seldom-exposed flaw of gene-seed or indoctrination they are also savage and proficient warriors however, having become one with the act of killing, honing their superhuman reflexes to gun down their foes at close quarters to a preternatural degree.

THE 1ST LEGION The Dark Angels were the first of the Emperor's Space Marine Legions, and in their earliest incarnation fought as the personal army of the Master of Humanity in the dawning years of the Great Crusade and in the shadowed campaigns that preceded it. Unyielding, technologically capable, ruthless and insular, the Dark Angels at the time of the Horus Heresy were once again a powerful and highly independent Legion, used to operating on its own to conduct large scale campaigns and Compliance actions. The fear of the Ist Legion's intervention led the machinations of the Warmaster to ensure that when his treacherous plans came to fruition, the Dark Angels had been despatched to the outer edges of the Imperium where they would be unable to interfere, at least for a time.

Add 6" to the model's Move characteristic for that Movement phase instead of rolling a dice. In addition the model may fire any weapon as if they did not advance THE PRIMARCH'S STRATEGY LION EL'JONSON Lion El'Jonson, often times referred to as The Lion, is the Primarch of the 1st Legion, the Dark Angels. Raised on Caliban, a beautiful but blighted world tainted by the warp due to its proximity to the Eye of Terror, he spent his early life fighting the tainted monsters of the arboreal world. In recognition of his triumph against the Great Beasts, Lion El'Jonson was proclaimed the new Supreme Grand Master of The Order and Caliban as a whole. The Lion gained notoriety for his leadership and combat capability in the Great Crusade, but was too secretive and stoic to be considered for the honour of Warmaster. Indeed, the Lion himself admitted he had difficulty understanding the emotions of others. This emotional blindness led some of his followers to begrudge Jonson the great honours he has won, these small pangs of jealousy would, at the end of the Heresy, lead to utter betraya.l SIRE OF THE DARK ANGELS Dark Angels Primarch Tactic Use this Tactic at the start of the Initiative phase. All Dark Angel moels add +1 to all to hit rolls in either the Shooting OR fight phases for the rest of the battle round. This tactic can only be used once per game. 15

19 EMPEROR'S CHILDREN If your Kill Team is formed from the Emperor's Children Legion your faction Keyword changes to LEGIONES ASTARTES (EMPEROR'S CHILDREN).

Palatine Charge: In a turn where the Emperor's Children have the Initiative all models may roll 3 dice for Advances and Charges and choose the 2 highest. Sonic Shriekers: The Legions first step in what would become a darker path: Any non specialist model may take Sonic Shriekers for 3pts. Enemies in base to base contact with these models suffer -1 to hit when they attack. THE 3RD LEGION The Emperor s Children have always striven to be exemplars above all others in the arts of war; scorning those who do not meet their own, perhaps unattainable, standards. This led them to seek perfection in war as a fluid, lightning-quick force whose battles were preordained victories brought about by a combination of acute strategic planning and flawless execution. Their attitudes and manner led some to name them as arrogant and vain glorious long before the Heresy, but the Legion's warriors were always ready to answer any such slight with blood. To the Emperor s Children, before there fall from grace, war was a matter of perfection incarnated in violence, intent and action. The Legion took great pride both in its excellence on any battlefield, and its ability to systematise and replicate any tactic or strategic deployment it needed.

Instead of shooting, that model can immediately make a normal move as if it were the Movement phase, but instead of moving up to their Move characteristic they move up to 2D6". THE PRIMARCH'S STRATEGY FULGRIM The mercurial and prideful Fulgrim is the Primarch of the Emperor s Children Legion. Fulgrim strove to be a paragon in all things: generalship, martial skill, governance, reason and endeavour, and passed on his values to the legion where they became enshrined as a remorseless dedication to perfection in war. Such allconsuming ambition came as the price of Vainglory and hubris for the Emperors children and their master, and they swiftly became ensnared in the Warmaster s conspiracy. When the loyalist legions arrived in the Isstvan system, the Emperor's Children were at the forefront of the fighting, aiding in the massacre of their former brethren. During the infamous Drop Site Massacre, Fulgrim and Ferrus Manus met once again, and had their final and fateful duel.

In addition the following special rules apply: Wrack: Iron Warriors fought in some of the most destructive and ravaging battle of the great crusade, inuring them to its effects. Iron warriors automatically pass the first nerve tests they are required to make per game. Ruin: The grenades used by the Iron Warriors are specially designed to rend armour and rip the flesh within to bloodied ribbons. Iron Warrior Frag grenades have an AP of -1 and Krak grenades have an AP of -2 Alternate composition: Instead of the standard requirment for tactical marines a battle-forged Iron Warrior Kill Team must include at least 3 Siege Marines. THE 4TH LEGION The Iron Warriors are the grim-faced, coldhearted masters of the science of war, the exemplars of strength and discipline turned exclusively to the systematic destruction of an enemy. The Legion is commanded by its Lord Primarch as an extension of his own mind and body, the will of each Legionary utterly sublimated to his conception of victory. More so than in any other Legion, the life of each warrior is secondary to his duty, as much a resource to be expended in the relentless calculus of war as bolt shell or lascannon charge. Guided by such doctrines, the Iron Warriors are amongst the most relentless and dogged siege warriors in the ranks of the Legiones Astartes and countless fortresses have been reduced to ashes under their guns throughout the Great Crusade.

Add 6" to the model's Move characteristic for that Movement phase instead of rolling a dice. Ignore the penalties for Hardened Armour when using this tactic. THE PRIMARCH'S STRATEGY PERTURABO Weaned on war and intrigue in the strife-ridden courts of Olympia, Perturabo was a grim warrior and a master of technological arcana who wielded logic and the mathematics of warfare as keenly as he did a blade. To his brothers, the Lord of Iron was taciturn to the point of insult, preferring to harbour his thoughts against need and ever wary of treachery, even amongst his kin. Few would call him friend, but none could fault his ability to deconstruct any campaign and plot the most direct course to victory regardless of the cost and despite the strain put upon his loyalty during the long years of the Great Crusade. His word was as unbreakable as iron. Perturabo arrived at Isstvan V in the wake of the bloody pacification of Olympia, a campaign that many would later claim tipped Perturabo and his Legion over the edge of madness and fully into the abyss of betrayal SIRE OF THE IRON WARRIORS Iron Warriors Primarch Tactic Use this tactic at the start of the Initiative phase. Remove all shaken counters from Iron Warrior models. This tactic can only be used once per game. 19

23 WHITE SCARS If your Kill Team is formed from the White Scars Legion your faction Keyword changes to LEGIONES ASTARTES (WHITE SCARS). In addition the following special rules apply: Swift Action: When advancing or charging the Sons of the Khan roll an extra dice and discard the lowest. Headhunters: During the scouting phase the White Scars player may choose "Headhunter" as a strategy. If chosen the White Scars player selects either the opposing teams leader or one of their specialists as the target for this hunt. White Scars may reroll failed to wound rolls against this model. Blades of Chogorian Steel: The razor sharp melee weapons of the White Scars have an additional -1 AP i.e. AP becomes -1, -1 becomes -2 and so on. THE 5TH LEGION A bolt of lightning in clear skies, a sudden gale from an unexpected quarter - the White Scars are war's sudden and merciless onslaught. Swift action and a joy for the rush of combat and clash of blades are the hallmarks of their battles, tempered by a quiet and hidden wisdom that few took the time to uncover. The White Scars thrive in the chaotic heart of battle, anticipating its vicissitudes and flowing with them, always to be found where the foe is weakest, where they were least expected, and leaving only cold corpses in their wake. They were the Great Crusade's pathfinders, the bleak wind that ran ahead of its serried armies culling the weak and harrying the strong that they might fall more easily to those who followed. There were many victories claimed by the Great Crusade that would not have been possible without the depredations caused by these warriors.

This model fights in the hammer of wrath phase section during the fight phase whether it charged or not A PRIMARCH'S STRATEGY JAGHATAI KHAN It is said the most influential moment in Jaghatai's life was the slaying of his adopted father by a rival tribe. The swift and total destruction of the murderers and their tribe serves perhaps as the foundation for the White Scars doctrines of war. Both he and his legion engage their foes in punishing hit-and-run combat, preferring speed and strength of arms over endurance and firepower. Unlike many of the other Primarchs, Jaghatai never even considered betraying the Emperor for the service of the Ruinous Powers. Such a course would have been dishonourable in the extreme since the Emperor had done no wrong to his sons and also because Jaghatai so deeply believed in the Emperor's goal of reunifying the entire human race. At the end of the Horus Heresy he would not be found wanting as an attempt was made on the life of another father. SIRE OF THE WHITE SCARS White Scar Primarch Tactic Use this Tactic at the start of the Initiative phase. All White Scar models may immediatley make a 6" Move as if it was their movement phase.

NAME FENRISIAN WOLF M WS BS S T W A Ld Sv Max Fenrisian Wolf 10" This model attacks with it's teeth and claws (counts as a Chainsword) THE 6TH LEGION Renowned both for their savagery and their obedience to the will of the Emperor, the Space Wolves Legion long stood apart from the other Legiones Astartes. Distant and aloof, they were separated not only by bellicose demeanour, but by an almost impenetrable web of self-generated myth and allegory which guarded well the Legion's secrets, not only of who they were but what they had done in the service of the Master of Mankind. The unique gene-seed of the Space Wolves, altered as it is by the inclusion of what is known as the Canis Helix, had both its advantages and disadvantages, making them at once more animalistic than their fellow Legiones Astartes and to their detractors, it made them more beasts than men.

You can re-roll failed hit rolls for models from your kill team within 6" of that Space Wolf in the Fight phase in this battle round. THE PRIMARC H'S STRATEGY LEMAN RUSS Of all of the Primarchs of the Legiones Astartes, few were as legend-shrouded or as little understood as Leman Russ, master of the Space Wolves and lord of the icy death world of Fenris. To some he was no more than a savage and bestial chieftain gifted the power of a god; one of the Emperor's 'monsters' as terrifying and inhuman in his own way as the horror-obsessed Night Haunter or the blood-bedecked berserker Angron. To others he was an incomparable warlord, ferocious beyond measure, but also faultlessly loyal, as unwavering in battle as adamant, and as cold-hearted to his foes as the killing frost that shrouded his world's winters. Both opinions perhaps were true to some measure, but neither told the full tale. For though as undoubtedly as savage as Leman Russ was he was also wise beyond his Legion's barbaric appearances. SIRE OF THE SPACE WOLVES Space Wolves Primarch Tactic Play at the start of the Initiative phase. All Space Wolves gain +1 LD for the rest of this battle round. In addition they may force an opponent to re-roll injury rolls if they desire. This tactic can only be used once per game. 23

THE 7TH LEGION The legionaries of the 7th are known as the stoic praetorians of Terra, the embodiment of all that the Great Crusade stands for. They are loyal, disciplined and methodical, and masters of both the attack and the defence. As the Imperium expands ever outwards, so the crusaders of the Imperial Fists are to be found at the very leading edge of Compliance. Then, in the wake of victory, the Imperial Fists construct mighty fortresses that are as much garrisons against recidivism as they are beacons of Unification, the noblest of exemplars of the highest ideals and aspirations of humanity.

Until the end of the battle round, add 1 to this models attacks and saving throws. THE PRIMARCH'S STRATEGY ROGAL DORN A being of thunderous zeal and stone made manifest, is how many described the Primarch of the Vllth Legion. The zeal was the fire of a son who believed in his father's dream for the Imperium without reservation and without question. To Rogal Dorn there was no higher purpose to the existence of the Legiones Astartes than the unification of Mankind, and the illumination of the Imperium's ideals. The stone in his soul was his ability to bear whatever his father needed of him, an unyielding nature, which made him both a master of defence in war, and an indomitable fighter on the attack. If the Primarchs were the Emperor's nature split like white light through a prism's rays, as many scholars of the Imperial Court suggested, then Rogal Darn was the Emperor's implacable disciple in the pursuit of the cause given flesh; in who loyalty and duty was as integral as blood and breath. SIRE OF THE IMPERIAL FISTS Imperial Fists Primarch Tactic Use this tactic at the end of the Movement Phase. Pick a model within 3" of an objective marker that is not shaken.

THE 8TH LEGION Even before the Isstvan V Dropsite Massacre, the Night lords Legion were renegade in all but name, having entirely devoted themselves to the arts of terror and murder. The Legion's Primarch Konrad Curze is the master of the unheralded strike from the least anticipated quarter, an attack delivered with such brutality and wanton cruelty entire planetary populations were brought to their knees in abject surrender. Never given to mercy, few who oppose the Night Lords ever live to tell the tale, unless they are allowed by design to escape in order to sow the seeds of dread still further. Given the dark demeanour of the Legion, it takes an equally ruthless leader to rein in its propensity for atrocity, at least until such time as it is called for.

WRAITH OF NOSTROMO Night Lords Tactic Use this Tactic at the end of the Movement phase. Pick a model from your kill team. Until the end of the battle round, enemy models can only shoot that model if it is the closest target visible to them. THE PRIMARCH'S STRATEGY KONRAD CURZE Called the 'Night Haunter' by the people of his home world of Nostramo, Konrad Curze was from his earliest days a figure of dark renown. Growing to maturity upon benighted city streets ruled by criminals while corrupt overlords enjoyed lives of luxury, Curze took it upon himself to exert hrs own bloody brand of justice. Instituting a reign of terror that cowed criminal and tyrant alike, the Night Haunter brought order, of a kind, to Nostramo. When at last the Emperor came, Curze had foreseen his life, his role as Primarch and his ultimate end, his sanity ever stretched taut by grim visions of the horrors soon to overwhelm the galaxy. By the time the Warmaster's treachery was revealed to an appalled Imperium of Man, Konrad Curze and his Legion were already renegades in all but name, on the verge of censure by the highest authorities in the Emperor's domains. SIRE OF THE NIGHT LORDS Night Lords Primarch Tactic Use this Tactic at the start of the Initiative phase. All models within 3" of a Night Lords model has its Leadership reduced by -2 for the rest of the battle round. This tactic can only be used once per game. 27

Models that are set up in this manner cannot move further, Advance or charge during the battle round they arrive, though they can otherwise act normally. The must be set up at least 6 from enemy models. THE 9TH LEGION In battle, the Blood Angels Legion are the incarnation of the Emperor's wrath upon those who rejected the gift of Unity, and their coming often nothing less than apocalyptic judgement delivered upon the guilty from on high. Their arrival on a non-compliant human world was heralded by blazing assaults on the strongest points of enemy resistance. Descending from the heavens on wings of fire, the Legion conquered by their preternatural fury as well as by the dread and awe they created. Whole worlds fell to their knees cowering before the wrath and splendour of these 'red angels', less they too perish beneath their burning blades. Against the xenos, no such quarter was given, and the wrath of the Blood Angels was as a tide of unrelenting carnage that only gave way once complete extermination had been achieved.

The exception to the Imperium s view of mutants his wings are taken as a blessing of the emperors, a living Aquila. His wings ultimately became mighty pinions that would bear him aloft through the warzones of the Great Crusade, inspiring awe and devotion from the lesser beings beneath. Sanguinius is the noblest of the Primarchs in physical aspect. Proud and resolute, the Angel radiates a confidence so vital that any shadows of doubt were banished beneath his light. His faith and trust in both is his mighty brothers and his own sons was seldom misplaced. However, his love for both Horus and their father would lead to a fateful confrontation, one he had foreseen, one that would lead to his death.

THE 10TH LEGION The Iron Hands are masters of the engines of war, wielding weapons and armoured tanks with the skill a master swordsman might a blade. Proud and relentless, the Legion has fought for many years at the forefront of the Great Crusade, and seen victories uncounted, though many have labelled them as callous and as inhuman as the machines they employ with such devastating skill. The Iron Hands' preference for close range, brutal engagements, where their relentless firepower could be brought to its fullest effect, was exemplified by a tactic that became known as the 'Head of the Gorgon'. This was where the enemy would be brought to battle, held in place and allowed to smash itself to pieces against the body of the Legion's forces, while reserve forces of mechanised armour encircled them, before closing to create a withering crossfire.

THE PRIMARCH'S STRATEGY FERRUS MANUS The Primarch of the Iron Hands Legion was a figure of Legend amongst the peoples of his home world of Medusa, named by them 'the Gorgon' after the most ancient of mythic creatures. Ferrus was amongst the strongest of the Primarchs, his fury tempered by an exterior as cold and unyielding as iron. The Gorgon was known for his uncompromising demeanour, refusing to show favour to his closest followers or even his brother Primarchs. He insisted upon strength in all things, such that he refused the people of Medusa many of the easements of civilisation in order to ensure they produced the toughest of offspring from whom the Legion could recruit. The demand for physical excellence extended beyond the body and mind to include the tools of war and so the Gorgon was a master of the forge, his skills matched only by Vulkan, the Primarch of the Salamanders Legion.

Tales of their predations and massacres were numberless, and their reputation was as the Emperor's war hounds. as such a name they once carried-beasts, butchers and madmen whose fury was fuelled by bloodshed, and was such that no sane warrior would stand willingly against them. Their reputation was well deserved, if an oversimplification of them as a fighting force, which knew well the virtue of tactics and weapons, at least before their fall.

THE PRIMARCH'S STRATEGY ANGRON Angron, the most bloody handed and savage of Primarchs, was the master of the World Eaters Legion. In his youth cast upon a world of brutal oppression he was enslaved and surgically mutilated to become a gladiator in the games of death, where he became the undefeated lord of the red sands, a killer without peer. After leading a revolt the emperor saved him from dying with his rebellion and placed him at the head of his legion, but he never forgave the emperor for the death of his followers, nor was any love lost between him and his fellow Primarchs. When Horus began his rebellion, Angron was quick to join in his treachery, but his only true master was the rage and blood lust within him. Angron's nerve-implants known as the Butcher's Nails which tremendously heightened his aggressiveness, but also had the side effect of uncontrollable rages outside of battle.

THE PRIMARCH'S STRATEGY ROBOUTE GUILLIMAN Sometimes referred to as the "Avenging Son," and "The Blade of Unity", the Primarch of the Ultramarines Space Marine Legion. Held by some as a paragon among the Emperor's sons, Roboute Guilliman was as much a patrician statesman as he was an indefatigable warrior. A being of preternatural intelligence, cold reason and indomitable will, Guilliman forged his XIII Legion into a vast force of conquest and control, a weapon by which he made himself the master of a stellar domain in the Eastern Fringe of the galaxy, the Realm of Ultramar, which during his lifetime spanned five hundred worlds. When the Horus Heresy set the galaxy ablaze, Roboute Guilliman fought with loyalty and determination for the Imperium that he believed in with all his heart.

THE 14TH LEGION The Death Guard are stalwart and implacable fighters, who have made a speciality both of endurance under the harshest of circumstances and of overcoming the most nightmarish and inhospitable of war zones. Their name is a byword for unflinching determination and victory through bloody, gruelling attrition when all else fails, as well as for expertise in the darker arts of warfare, such as the use of bio-alchem and rad weaponry. The Death Guard are arguably the most remorseless and among the most feared of the Space Marine Legions, This was not simply because of their power in battle or force of arms, but also because there seemed to be no loss they would not accept to ensure eventual victory and no hell they would not endure to reach their foe.

THE PRIMARCH'S STRATEGY MORTARION The shadowed and sinister Mortarion is Primarch and Commander of the Death Guard Legion. Raised upon the nightmare world of fell secrets and necromantic horror where humans were hunted like animals, the darkness that surrounded him seeped into his soul and would never leave him. Fiercely driven and relentless, the reaper- Primarch led his legion to become wrathful liberators, spectres of death and judgment to whom no battlefield was insurmountable and no foe too terrible to face. Wielding a massive chain scythe and silhouetted against the blossoming explosions of the Death Guards advance he struck terror into the souls of any who opposed his legion. With lies and half-truths did Horus sway Mortarion to his cause, and the price that he and his legion would pay for their heresy would be nightmarish beyond imagining.

It was these esoteric arts of war that made them one of the most formidable Legions, but also one of the most distrusted. Wherever they went, the Thousand Sons culled lore with an insatiable hunger. Parchments, books, data-vaults, works of artifice and art, and countless other artefacts from both human and alien worlds were gathered by the Legion. Many were taken during the wars of conquest prosecuted by the Thousand Sons, but missions sent to already Compliant worlds also recovered wonders thought lost to the darkness of the Age of Strife.

While a!! of the Emperor's sons were transcendent beings, forged not just of physical matter but of psychic force, in some this quality was channelled into superhuman physicality, but others held the power to manipulate the Warp either directly or subconsciously as prophetic foresight, preternatural stealth or an aura of majesty beyond the mortal. But above a!! his brothers, Magnus the Red was the most numinous, a psyker of prodigious power. Magnus' very essence boiled with psychic potential, to the extent that his physical form seems likely to be more a matter of will, or a reflection of a deep spiritual imprint than a mere physical constraint. It is said that alone amongst his Primarchs, Magnus met the Emperor in the Realm Beyond long before they met in the flesh.

THE 16TH LEGION The combat doctrines of the Sons of Horus were those of the application of overwhelming force directed to where the foe was weakest. These shattering blows were used to utterly destroy enemy command cadres. vital strategic support structures and wreak terrible slaughter on the pride of an enemy's forces, often turning the tide of an entire conflict with a single, well-placed and savage attack. Even on a personal level, the Sons of Horus took this merciless doctrine to heart and, like the wolves they were once named for, were swift to exploit a foe's weakness, surrounding and brutally tearing apart an outnumbered or exposed enemy before they could recover from the shock of an assault.

A tactical genius and charismatic battle leader Horus proved himself over the course of the great crusade as a warlord second only to the Emperor whom he served and called father. So it was that when the Emperor stood apart from the burden of the command of the Great Crusade, it was Horus that he named as Warmaster to act in his stead. But ambition and pride festered within the Warmaster s heart and at Davin he fell, and the lies and corruptions of the warp infected his soul. From then on he plotted with dark forces to usurp the Emperor s throne and become the master of mankind, throwing the galaxy into a bloody civil war.

THE 17TH LEGION Where once the XVIIth Legion brought the light of the Emperor to benighted humanity, now the Word Bearers bring the blinding darkness of Old Night. No longer driven by duty and honour, but by the thirst for forbidden lore and undeserved power, they seek to bind the Warp itself and to enslave its denizens to their will. After it came to the worship of older and more nightmarish gods, parts of the Legion took to enacting horrific rites on the eve of battle to curry favour from the Warp. When the Word Bearers march to war, the fabric of reality is distorted and the dread things of the Abyss march at their side. To stand against the Word Bearers is to invite insanity, death and, unknown to most yet the worst fate of all, the damnation of the eternal soul.

You can only use this Tactic twice per battle. THE PRIMARCH'S STRATEGY LORGAR AURELIAN The Golden Son as many called him, who alone amongst his brothers wielded the raw power of devotion as his preferred weapon, was the lord of the Word Bearers Legion. In his earliest days he swayed an entire world with his powerful oratory and the sheer force of his charisma, leading Colchis, his adopted home world, through the fires of civil war to the veneration of the Emperor, whose coming he had foreseen in dreams. Reunited with his father, and at the head of the Word Bearers Legion, Lorgar conquered, not simply through stratagem, overmatching power or simple brute violence, but by the subtle craft of exaltation, liberation and example. But in his literal interpretation of the meaning of the Great Crusade upon which he was embarked, he and his Legion strayed from the path that had been set out for them SIRE OF THE WORD BEARERS Word Bearers Tactic Use this tactic at the start of the Initiative phase.

THE 18TH LEGION The Salamanders are the exemplars of forgewrought duty, masters of artifice and possessed of a fearsome and uncompromising sense of honour. They stand for roil and sacrifice, bearing arms and armour forged to the highest possible standards and often by the hands of the legionaries who bear them in battle. The Legion wields the tools of the smith as weapons of war, bringing heat, iron and raw strength of arms to strike down all those who would deny the Imperial Truth or attempt to undermine the Imperium of Man. Under the tutelage and spiritual leadership of their Primarch Vulkan, the Salamanders have become a Legion of warrior mystics; slow to anger deliberate in action and supremely disciplined.

THE PRIMARCH'S STRATEGY VULKAN An indomitable warrior whose strength in battle was tempered by the depth of his wisdom, Vulkan was sire to the Salamanders Legion and its paragon. In war, his fury was a match for any of his brothers, and yet was ever mastered by a keen understanding for the destruction he caused and the power and dread responsibility he and his Legion carried as Angels of Death. In all his undertakings Vulkan ever sought to limit needless and wanton destruction, seeing in that a path to ruin and desolation of the soul, shouldering whatever hardship this might bring him or his sons without compliant and absorbing the wisdom such suffering brought, allowing it to forge him into an ever better protector for the growing Imperium.

THE XIXTH LEGION The Raven Guard are equal parts light and darkquick to exact justice and retribution upon the tyrant and the oppressor by striking from the shadows with lightning speed and shocking strength. The annals of the Great Crusade tell relatively few tales of the numerous great deeds the Legion has enacted, for it has ever shunned the glare of adulation. Though the master of the full specrrum of war, the Raven Guard Legion favours the tactics of patience, guile and subtlety. It is adept at reconnaissance and infiltration, of identifying its foe's weakest point and then rapidly striking at that point with precisely applied force.

THE PRIMARCH'S STRATEGY CORVUS CORAX Lord Corax presents a striking countenance, at least when he wishes to be seen. His skin is alabaster white and his shoulder length hair as black as the feathers of his namesake, the raven. Most remarkable and unsettling are his eyes, which are entirely black shards of solid shadow. His sable armour is edged with fine, golden filigree and upon his back is mounted a jet pack formed into a pair of articulated pinions that he wields as a murderous, bloody-edged cutting weapon. Like most of the Primarchs, Corax is blessed of an extensive armoury of artifice-wrought weapons but those he most often bears to war are a pair of metre-long lightning claws and a coiled whip at his belt. Though few even amongst his sons know of it, Corax is blessed with the ability to pass unnoticed should he will it, this preternatural ability allowing him to slip from the perception of his enemies.

Move through cover: Ignore difficult terrain Adamantium will: Do not include friendly models who are out of action when performing Nerve tests. THE 20TH LEGION There is no other Legion like the XX. Of all the mighty forces the Imperium commanded during the Great Crusade, there were none so wound about with falsehood, supposition and paradox than they. The annals of the Great Crusade make mention of the Legion, but invariably each entry contradicts some other. All that is known is that the warriors of the Alpha Legion are the unsurpassed masters of misdirection and guile. Most foes have no inkling they are even fighting before the Alpha Legion's masterful stratagems cause their defences to collapse beneath them, torn apart from within so that when the final overwhelming attack finally comes, the enemy's defeat is total.

THE PRIMARCHS' STRATEGY ALPHARIUS The Primarch of the Alpha Legion shrouds himself in mystery, often moving unseen even amongst the ranks of his own Legion. However, when the time comes to cast off the cloak of misdirection, Alpharius is as awe-inspiring a being as any of the Primarchs of the Legiones Astartes. Clad in armour forged in the manner of some terrifying beast ancient terran myth and armed with a fearsome panoply of weapons of unknown provenance, Alpharius bestrides the battlefield like a figure from legend. Like the hydra he and his Legion take as their symbol, in battle Alpharius fights by repeated attacks from multiple and unexpected quarters. None can predict where or how the Primarch will strike, what weapons he will bring to bear or which of his many different forces will fight at his side. In many cases, the enemy are not even aware they are fighting until the very moment battle is joined.

53 SHATTERED LEGIONS

54 PLAYTEST EDITION V2 - NOT FINAL VERSION SHATTERED LEGIONS Born upon the blood-soaked sands of the Urgall Depression, the Shattered Legions were the consequence of betrayal and fratricide. At the Isstvan V Dropsite Massacre, three entire Legions were rendered all but destroyed, all cut down by the treachery of their supposed brothers when the forces that constituted the second wave of the assault revealed their allegiance to the Warmaster. In the days and weeks following the Dropsite Massacre, elements of the Iron Hands, Salamanders and Raven Guard were scattered far and wide across the northern Imperium having been forced to make hastily plotted warp jumps to escape the Traitors' ambush. While some scattered alone, it was also the case that vessels of all three Legions came together in small clusters in the darkness, wounded and distrustful of one another following the massacre, and violently shorn from their Legion's chains of command. Often, once damage was repaired and wounds bound, these clustered forces split apart again to seek their own paths, often cast wide by the burgeoning warp storms that would slowly erupt into the great Ruinstorm, in order to find their way back to their homes or reliable commands, but in other instances, these ragged squadrons remained together, seeking better odds of survival in a galaxy at war in the company of allies who had borne the same savage trial they had, and so were the Shattered Legions born. Because Legion ranks were invariably kept intact, it was not uncommon for Shattered Legion forces to feature an uneven proportion of officers and Legionaries from different Legions. Other Shattered Legion groups were heavily dominated by a single faction, but had far smaller contingents from several other Legions in their ranks. As the Horus Heresy progressed, it became evident that the Traitors had their own Shattered Legion forces, though often brought into being under somewhat different circumstances. Many were simply forces cut off from their own Legions and pursuing existing orders for fear of censure or worse. Some Traitor forces appear to have come into being as some manner of punishment, cast into exile and instructed not to return until some grave task was completed, often the execution of scattered Loyalist survivors. Thus Shattered Legion formations made of mixed Legiones Astartes forces orphaned from their parent Legions were to be found on both sides of Mankind's galactic civil war, engaging in ceaseless, unseen and bitter shadow wars throughout the Age of Darkness and beyond. Battle-forged Kill Teams In addition to the rules laid out on KTCM-pg62, you must also adhere to the following restrictions/ alterations for Shattered Legions kill teams: All the models in your Shattered Legions kill team must have the same keyword, either LOYALIST or TRAITOR.

Limited manpower: For each assault, recon or siege marine from a legion the team must also include a tactical marine from the same legion.

With the exception of Alternate Formation all Legion specific rules apply to those with the associated legion keyword.

56 BLACKSHIELDS

57 PLAYTEST EDITION V2 - NOT FINAL VERSION BLACKSHIELDS The term 'Blackshield' refers not to a single military body or even a class of warriors as such, but to a phenomenon that came into being in the early to middle years of the Age of Darkness. A warrior might, for any one of a myriad reasons, choose or be forced to cast off or conceal his allegiance. Covering his armour with cloth or painting over it entirely. It cannot be known when the first Blackshields appeared upon the battlefields of the Age of Darkness, and in truth the definition is so broad that some may not have been noted as such at the time. Certainly, a small force of Legiones Astartes warriors clad in black and bearing the Terran Aquila in the stead of any Legion icon was sighted at the climax of the Liberation of Numinal during the war for the Coronid Deeps in early 008.M30. As the veil of Dark Compliance fell across the northern lmperium and beleaguered Loyalist armies fell back en masse before the Traitors' inexorable advance towards distant Terra, Blackshields similarly clad were counted amongst the defenders who mustered upon the walls of Fort Stranivar, giving their lives for the Loyalist cause alongside so many other dutiful and stoic servants of the Emperor. It is a truth that sits ill with many who are party to such knowledge that not all Blackshields were the sons of Traitor Primarchs. The warrior lodges had spread their pernicious philosophies far and wide in the y ears prior to lsstvan, and few indeed were the Legions entirely unaffected by their hidden workings. Indeed, it is notable that in some bands ofblackshields, adherence to the tenets of the various warrior lodges remained strong and some were even accompanied by small covens of Davinite lodge priests. How many Blackshield bands were in fact renegade elements of otherwise loyal Legions, or how many individual Blackshield warriors in the ranks of a Marauder squad were secretly turncoat sons of loyal Primarchs While the term 'Blackshield' is fitting, it was not always a literal description of the warriors in question. Some groups were observed clad in highly idiosyncratic, personalised heraldry, no two Legionaries bearing the same colours. Some applied camouflage patterns to their armour, a practice only rarely observed amongst the Legions. At least one group was observed to wear composite battle plate, each part scavenged from other Legions and mixed together with no rhyme or reason, a sea green vambrace taken from a slain Legionary of the Sons of Horus worn alongside a bone white gorget torn from the corpse of a defeated World Eater, for example. Battle-forged Blackshield Kill Teams In addition to the rules laid out on KTCM-pg62, you must adhere to the following restrictions/alterations for Blackshield kill teams: All the members of your kill team must have the LEGIONES ASTARTES (BLACKSHIELDS) faction keyword. All the members of your kill team may be given the LOYALIST or TRAITOR keywords. Your kill team must consist of at least six models. There is no maximum size for legiones kill teams. With the exception of Bolt weapons, chainswords, combat blades, Frag and Krak grenades, and jump packs a Blackshield kill team may not include duplicates of any weapon or piece of equipment.. Your Blackshield kill team cannot cost more than 150 points. Despite their rejection of visible Legion heritage, most Blackshields remained nonetheless recognisable as Space Marines. A small number however stretched such a definition to a point where onlookers may not have taken them for the product of the Emperor's vision at all. Throughout the Age of Darkness and beyond, accounts of Legionaries fallen to physical mutation persisted, hinting at a creeping instability in gene-seed purity, corruption of the implantation process, exposure to certain influences or even deliberate tampering with the Legiones Astartes genetic template. At first sight these warriors might appear blessed of superior strength, speed or resilience, but invariably they proved unstable in other ways. Some were prone to physical or mental collapse in the heat of battle, while others experienced spontaneous and uncontrolled mutation under stress, their limbs distending into horrific forms as bones re-knit and muscles distorted, battle plate splitting apart in the process. Some were indistinguishable in appearance from any other Legionary, yet possessed of such an unnatural mien or aura that others could not stand their presence, and with prolonged exposure would be driven by an inexplicable urge to strike them down.

This model gains +1 to hit modifiers against the enemy Leader or Specialists in the Shoot and Fight phases BROTHERHOOD ORPHANS OF WAR Having seen betrayal, atrocity and unthinkable carnage at the behest of distant and uncaring masters, these warriors are hardened veterans who have survived against all odds and now trust only in the man next to them in the line of battle. For brothers they will fight and die and strive to see another dawn, but for great cause or Primarch, and the lies and whispers of lords and potentates alike, they have nothing but scorn. BlackshieldsTactic Use this Tactic when a model from your kill team takes a flesh wound. One friendly model within 6" may immediatley make a move of up to 6" in the direction of the wounded model. This may bring the model within 1" of an enemy model. The most difficult class of Blackshield to define or identify with any certainty were those who were constituted en masse from the ranks of a parent Legion having refused to align themselves with the declared allegiance of their Primarch. Though their true numbers remain unknown, they cannot have been great for most of the Traitor Primarchs proved horrifyingly willing and able to purge their Legions of those sons they suspected would not stand alongside them against the Emperor. What trauma such warriors experienced upon learning of their masters' treachery can only be imagined FANMADE SUPPLEMENT 56

In addition the Player must pick one of the following special formations to apply to All Models in your Kill Team. Death Seekers: These Blackshields may never be shaken and ignore any negative modifiers when checking if their kill team has been broken. Orphans of War: When Targeting an opponents leaders or specialist in both the shooting or fight phase these models gain +1 to hit and +1 to Wound. Outlanders: Models equiped with jump packs may arrive as reinforcements in any Movement phase within 6" of the kill team's leader and 3" away from any enemy model.

In addition this kill team can only take Leaders, Medic, Veteran, and Zealot specialists. DEATH SEEKERS These Blackshields are motivated by an allconsuming drive to offer up their own lives upon the altars of war. Psychologically unstable, either as a result of what they have witnessed or endured or through brutally enforced and accelerated psychoindoctrination, death has become the centre of their being, either as a blessed release, sought-for atonement or programmed obsession, but they will not meet death vainly and without taking as many of the foe with them as they can. Through sheer force of will or other more malign influence, such as prohibited gene-seed experimentation, they are able to shrug off otherwise debilitating injury as they abandon themselves to the anarchy of battle. They aim to sell their lives dearly and are consumed by hatred for a galaxy in which they no longer have a place.

61 PLAYTEST EDITION V2 - NOT FINAL VERSION CHYMERIAE As the Age of Darkness progressed so there came into being Legiones Astartes who simply should not have existed. Some were the by-blows of failed rapid implantation and psychoindoctrination programs, others the product of prohibited experimentation on gene-seed stock or the influence of malign forces from beyond. Most often the cause for such 'Chymeriae' creation was to create a breakthrough that would see their faction, Loyalist or Traitor, gain a decisive edge in the war; a goal which for some any taboo or stricture was worth breaking. All, be they Primarch or master apothecary, who attempted this soon learned the folly of their error. Such warriors were at best invariably unstable or unpredictable when compared to those Legiones Astartes brought into being by conventional means, while others succumbed to irreparable madness or cancerous mutation as terrifying to behold as it was ultimately fatal. At first sight these warriors might appear blessed of superior strength, speed or resilience, but were invariably unstable in other, darker, ways. Blackshield Marauder of the Gerasene Host clad in A mix of MkV 'Heresy' armour. The tribal markings of this Chymreiae warband armour are of unknown provenance OUTLANDERS These Space Marines have seen the depths to which both sides in Mankind's civil war will sink to in order to destroy the other, and they have washed their hands of either side and are now pursuing their own goals, having turned towards the path of the marauder and void corsair to determine their fate. For some who have previously served in the nomad-predation fleets and the flotillas of the Rogue Traders at the forefront of the Great Crusade's darkest frontiers, this may be merely a reversion to a path welltravelled in the past, although with themselves as master, while others will have been forced into exile by the wroth of enemy and one-time ally alike. Many of those warriors who escaped the betrayal of their kin fled into the darkness and were never seen again, while others embarked upon shortlived campaigns of bloody vengeance, determining to sell their lives dearly and consumed by hatred for a galaxy in which they no longer had a place Blackshield Fighter of the Third Covenant in MkII 'Crusade' armour.

63 MECHANICUM TAGHMATA KILL TEAMS

64 PLAYTEST EDITION V2 - NOT FINAL VERSION MECHANICUM TAGHMATA During the cataclysm of the Horus Heresy, the Taghmata was called upon on every Forge World and outpost as war and the threat of attack was constant. Soon, the Mechanicum was engaged in a battle for survival both against outside enemies and against rival factions of their own kind. At the time of the outbreak of the Horus Heresy, the Taghmata Omnissiah was the principal type of operational military force of the trans- Martian Mechanicum and also the most numerous. To those outside the arcane secrets and strange mysteries of the Mechanicum, the Taghmata was a difficult thing to grasp, seeming at once a purely descriptive term applied to a bewildering tapestry of Magos, machineworks and indentured manpower, and also a rigid and labyrinthine hierarchical structure, the equal of any in the lmperium's armed forces in complexity. Its name, however, translated from the lingua-technis into the Terran-Gothic of the Imperial Court betrays its fundamental nature; Taghmata Omnissiah being related then as 'That which is divinely ordered for war' - being the military reflection of a Forge World's essentially feudal power structure mustered for battle. Alongside the elite Skitarii regiments, whose allegiance and command was owed ultimately to Mars, and the Collegia Titanica which comprised the planet-shattering Titan Legions, both of which organisations operated separate military traditions of their own, the Taghmata formed the great trinity, the 'Triad-Magna', of the Mechanicum's power during the Great Crusade. Besides these three there stood the 'lesser' independent and allied divisions of Battle-forged Kill Teams In addition to the rules laid out on KTRB-pg62, you must also adhere to the following restrictions/ alterations for Mechanicum Taghmata kill teams: All the models in your Mechanicum Taghmata kill team must have the MECHANICUM keyword. If the player wishes they may add (LOYALIST) or (TRAITOR) to their faction keyword Your kill team must consist of at least six models If the Magos Auxillia is selected then that model must be your Leader. Your Mechanicum Taghmata kill team cannot cost more than 150 points. the Mechanicum such as the Knight Houses, the Ordo Reductor, the.explorators and the Legio Cybernetica, among others. Each was a great power in its own right, but all were dwarfed both in scale and reach by the great three. During the Horus Heresy when, just as the lmperium was riven by the treachery of the Warmaster, so was the Mechanicum, already rife with internal discord and disharmony, all too readily riven alongside it, turning on itself as well as siding unequally for the warring parties of Traitor or Loyalist, with Forge Worlds and domains siding along longheld fealties and feudal obligations as much as they did for Emperor or Warmaster. AUTOMATA RULES At the start of a battle models with the Automata keyword are assigned to Tech-Priests and must remain wholly within 6 of that model for the rest of the battle. While within this control range Automata models automatically pass any nerve check they are required to make. If out of control range it takes a stun counter and may only move until within 6 of the assigned Tech Priest. If in combat when out of range it may fight as normal. If during a battle the tech-priest to which it is assigned is removed from the table this model takes a stunned counter and must move within 2 of another tech priest. It is now assigned to that tech priest but no longer automatically passes Nerve checks. A Tech-Priest may be assigned a maximum of 4 models with the AUTOMATA keyword SKITARII REGIMENTS To play a battle-forged Mechanicum Skitarii kill team use the Adeptus Mechanicus rules found on pages of the Kill Team core manual with the following alterations. Change the ADEPTUS MECHANICUS Keyword for all units to MECHANICUM.

These 'lesser and righteous works' of synthetic life, deemed sacred by the Crimson accords or Mars, we to be protected in battle allowing them to bring destruction to the enemies of man. In war the Battlesmiths can be found at the centre of massed Servo-Automata repairing some even as they commanded other to bring ruin to their foes. During the Horus Heresy whole cohorts of mechanoids fought alongside both Loyalist and traitor forces. Those traitorous Battlesmiths laid the seed for the dreaded Dark Mechanicum that would plague the Imperium for millennium to come.
