Are the Harlequins including Death Jester the same models as normal? I can't see the Jester very well but it looks like a different pose.

- Any veteran may be equipped with CCW, Special Weapons or Shot Weapons (Translation may be inaccurate)
- Up to 4 veterans may be equipped with Heavy Weapon
- Any model may be equipped with Heavy Thunder Hammer (+30/model)
- One Veteran may be upgraded to Black Shield
- One Veteran may be upgraded to Watch Seargent and may change his CCW for a Xenosomething blade and may purchase equipment from the Special List

Iuchiban, you're the man.

I CAN HAVE A SQUAD OF 4 WITH HEAVY BOLTER/HEAVY FLAMERS?!

YAAAAAAAAY! PURGE ALL THE THINGS!

Yeah, that may be the deathknell right there.

How much points for additional vet ?

When the purging is just right.

Also Heavy Thunder Hammers? Ya'know, just in case they weren't fething heavy already. No wonder Xenos themselves when they see DW.

Just what I was hoping for, small expensive kill teams, would make the Astartes seem badass next to a big Imperial army.

No drop pod?

Or an obvious typo by someone typing up a bunch of stuff for us in a hurry

Pretty sure they're 5 dudes. 5 Sternguard IS 110 points after all.

Iuchiban, thanks for doing this!

Is there a way for models to gain special rules based on their background chapter, or was that just something special for the named characters in Overkill?

Even if it's not a DT, you can always take it in Fast Attack.

Or just a consolidation for the tabletop.

Given what they can equip, thats VERY much usable.

Editted

Looks like you're definitely gonna want 5 man squads and jam as many heavy weapons as possible.

I love it.

Can't wait until the inevitable DE releases.

Hmm...definitely confirms that DW is an elite-style army like GK (less models on the table, but each unit very specialized)...

Well, on to Formations and detachments, Iuchiban!

It'll all be about the formations.
