Okay, I'm going to have another attempt at making the codex for the Relictors chapter.
For those that DO not know, they are a codex adherent space marine chapter that has been proclaimed "Excommunicate Traitoris". This was after the Grey Knights nearly destroyed the chapter, which had been considered corrupted due to their usage of chaos weaponry and (aforementioned) powers.
Their differences to the Codex Astartes are mainly just the fact that they utilize daemonic weaponry and psychic powers. They also have more librarians than other chapters. The bigest difference is that their decisions are made by a group of chosen veterans called the Conclave.
Relictors Army Wide Special Rules
Spoiler:
ATSKNF Combat Squads
Slowly Receding Sanity:
Chaos is seductive and many powerful warriors have fallen to it's clutch. The Relictors chapter, while trained in the use of it's "gifts", are not immune to it.
All chaotic artifacts have set "corruption levels". When the corruption levels of the wargear carried by a model are summarized together, consult the following chart to see the effects.
The bonuses provided by corruption are cumulative.
NOTE! Corruption points are calculated upon wargear or special rule purchasing acquisition or psychic power generation. Inquisitorial units are immune to this rule's effects.
Level of Corruption & Provided bonus:
Corruption Level 5(Resisting Seduction): +1I, -1BS (to a minimal value of 2)
Corruption Level 10(Hearing Voices): +1 A
Corruption Level 15(Innocence Lost): Relentless, -1Ld
Corruption Level 20(Faith Eternal, No More): It Will Not Die, -1WS, -1Ld (to a minimum of 2)
Corruption Level 25(Succumbed to insanity): Eternal Warrior, -1WS, -1Ld (to a minimum of two)
The changes to Force Organization and the Ally Matrix
Spoiler:
Force Organization: Due to the Relictors being reduced to roughly 500 members by the Grey Knights, they lack recruiting worlds and the opportunity to grow.
All scout and scout biker units are each, restricted to 0-1 per army. Scout units are also now elites, and are WS/BS4
Also, every individual heavy support choice counts as 0-1. Devastators are 0-2. This is due the Relictors having scarce supplies of armor and they are rarely able to access manufactorums.
The Relictors use more librarians than other chapters. Up to two librarians can be taken per HQ slot.
The Ally matrix (from C:SM)
As the Relictors have different ideals to most other Space Marine chapters, they have a different ally matrix:
[spoiler]Battle Brothers: N/A
Allies of Convenience: Space Marines, Dark Eldar, Eldar, IG, Orks
Desperate Allies: Chaos Daemons, Blood Angels, CSM Come the Apocalypse: Tyranids, Grey Knights, Sisters of Battle, Black Templars, Dark Angel
The Force Organization itself
Wargear
Chaotic Artefacts
Spoiler:
Marks of Chaos (any mark increases corruption by 6 points):
Any character in this codex, that is not inquisitorial may take a single mark of chaos. If the character is a psyker, they may not have the Mark of Khorne.
Mark of
.............Khorne: The character gains Furious Charge and Rage
.............Nurgle: The character gains +1T
.............Tzeenzch: The character gains +1 to their invulnerable save. If they do not have one, they gain a 6+ invulnerable save.
.............Slaanesh: The character receives +1I
Accursed Crozius(3 points of corruption)
A Crozius Arcanum affected by the powers of the Warp. It once served as a sacred badge of office for a Chaplain of the chapter. Rng.....S......AP.....type
..n/a....+2......4.......melee, concussive, crusader, zealot, accursed*
Accursed:Any enemy unit assaulting a character carrying an Accursed Crozius gains the Hatred special rule towards the character, and any unit they have joined.
Dark Armament(25pts) (6 corruption points)
Dark Armaments are weapons of great enigma. They are coated in mystery, just as their wielders are in armor. All that is known from these weapons is, that somehow they serve as a conduit between The Immaterium, and the Materium. They are like beacons to the creatures of the Warp. Even the Dark Gods themselves. The Dark Armaments use their Warp-connecting capabilities to change their powers depending on the moods and desires of their current wielder... At the beginning of each FRIENDLY assault phase, roll a D3 and consult the following table to see the rules of the Dark Blade.
1. (Fury of the Slain):The Dark Armament's manifestation is infused with the rage of hundreds of screeching, raging and furious souls of all the foes it has slain...
RNG ..S ...AP ..... type
n/a...+2.....3.....melee, two-handed
2. (Orgasmic Frenzy): Lord Slaanesh of Excess him/herself has "blessed" the weapon with a desire to inflict pain and suffering to any, and all. Even the weapon's wielder...
RNG.........S..........AP......type
n/a..........user.......3.....melee, two-handed, Initiative +2
3. (A Berserk's Tally): The armament glows red hot. It floods it's wielder with a maddening fury and desire to drive towards their cause, until it ultimately destroys him...
RNG.........S.....AP......type
n/a........user.....3......melee, two handed, +2 attack
Firebreeders(20pts) (3 points of corruption)
Firebreeders are power weapons, corrupted by the Warp and then discovered by the chapter for later use. The Relictors have discovered just a few, but enough to reverse-engineer their own, if weaker version of the weapons. The weapons are wreathed in flames that dance around their wielders and obey their commands...
Burning Lance
RNG............S.............AP.......type
n/a........user/+1........3/4.......melee, soul blaze
(The weapon is S: user, AP: 4, but gains +1 S and 1 improved AP upon charging.)
Once per game, any Firebreeder may be used as a ranged weapon using the following profile:
RNG...........S....AP....type
template....5.....5......assault 1, soul blaze
If the wielding character dies before using the ranged attack, place the large blast template where the model was. (This doesn't scatter.) Every model under the template, friendly or not, takes a S5 AP5 hit with the "soul blaze" effect.
If the weapon was "fired" before the wielder's death, ignore this rule.
The Blade of Eternal Darkness(35pts) (4 points of corruption)
++RECORD DELETED++
Rng.......S.....AP.....type
..n/a.....+1.......3......melee, daemon weapon*, darkness eternal**
*Daemon Weapon: A Daemon weapon grants the user an extra D6 attacks in close combat, determined at the start of each fight sub-phase. If a "1" is rolled for the amount of attacks, the wielder immediately takes a wound with no armor saves allowed. The bonus attacks gained from this rule are lost this turn.
**Darkness Eternal: If the bearer of the blade defeats an enemy character in a challenge, the controlling player may declare the next game turn as night fighting.
Xenos Relics
Spoiler:
Necrodermis Armor This suit of power armor has been coated with the mysterious Necrodermis. How the material has come to the hands of the Relictors, is a mystery of great magnitude. Necrodermis armor is in all intents and purposes a suit of artificer armor. In addition, the save can never be completely removed, but instead any weapon that would normally ignore the armor save merely substracts 1 from the required saving throw.The saving throw is then reduced each time a weapon capable of penetrating a Sv2+ is fired at the character. The Sv is returned to normal at the end of each player turn.
Shard of the Monolith A weapon forged from a very shard of "Living Metal", gained from a destroyed or damaged monolith. It "repairs" it's carrier, come the need... Rng......S.....Ap....type
..n/a....+2......1.....melee, unwieldy, specialist weapon, shard of the monolith*
*Shard of the Monolith: If the character carrying this blade takes a wound, he will gain the "It Will Not Die" special rule. If the wound inflicts Instant Death, the weapon's effect is ignored.
Toxin Carbine & Heavy Toxin Carbine A rifle infested with highly contagious viral compounds. Toxin Carbine:
Rng.....S.....AP.....type
12".......4......5.......assault 1, rending(5+), viral outbreak*, Gets Hot!
Heavy Toxin Carbine:
Rng.....S.....AP.....Type
24"......5.......4.......salvo 2/3, rending (5+), viral outbreak*, Gets Hot!
*Viral Outbreak: Should the compounds harnessed by the weapon break free in the tissues of the target, a needlessly agonizing death ensues.
Any rolls to wound of a 6 cause instant death, if the shot inflicts an unsaved wound.
Agonizer A weapon that sends a powerful neuro-shock through the body of any unfortunate victim. Most likely "acquired" from a Dark Eldar. Rng.........S.......AP.....type
.n/a......user.......3......melee, neural shock*
Neural Shock: An agonizer always wounds at a 4+, regardless of the enemy's toughness.
Unique Relics
Spoiler:
All of these relics are limited to 0-1 per army (each), and may be taken by any non-unique HQ unit in this codex.
Captains may replace their CCW/Bolt Pistol with any ONE of these. If they are in terminator armor, may replace power weapon/storm bolter instead.
Librarians may replace their Force Weapon/ bolt pistol with any ONE unique relic, or storm bolter/force weapon if in TDA.
A chaplain may only replace their bolt pistol with ONE unique relic (or storm bolter, if in TDA).
The Original Firebreeder (45pts) (7 points corruption)
This weapon is the very first, and most powerful one of all the many Firebreeders discovered by the chapter. Many attempts have bee made by chapter artificers to copy the weapon's power, but ultimately all have failed. Rng......S.....AP.....type
.N/A....+2.......3......melee, two-handed, soul blaze, daemon weapon (see The Blade of Eternal Darknes sentry), the ultimate flamebreeder, Rending(6+)
The Ultimate Flamebreeder:
The flames dancing around this blade are truly something else. They are completely superior to the ones in any other Firebreeder, not only in brightness but magnitude and heat alike.
Once per game this weapon can be fired as a ranged weapon, just like a normal Firebreeder. Although, this weapon's power is something MUCH more potent. It does not lose the "soul blaze" special rule, when fired.
Rng.............S.....AP....type
template.....6......5......assault 1, soul blaze, melta*, Gets Hot!*
*Melta: Just like any other melta weapon, this weapon rolls 2D6 when determining armor penetration.
*Gets Hot!: As the Original Firebreeder is a template weapon when used at range, it does not roll to hit. Instead, to see if the Gets Hot! rule applies, roll a d6 priot to firing. On a roll of a 1, apply the usual effect of Gets Hot!
The Screaming Flail(15 corruption, 25pts) (If Bardane is in the army, he must take the weapon):
A chaotic flail, imbued by Slaanesh with the essence of an unknown force. It's three flail-ends are all made out of humane faces that constantly whisper in Artekus's Mind and corrupt him with the word of Slaanesh. Rng.....S.....AP.....type
.N/A...user....2......melee, concussive, strikedown, daemon weapon
*Daemon weapon: The user gains +D6 attacks in every assault phase. These are determined in the beginning of the fight sub-phase. If a "one" is rolled when determining the amount of attacks, the user takes a wound without armor saves allowed and does not gain bonus attacks from the weapon.
The Excoriator's Blade:(8 corruption, 30pts, can be taken by DeCario)
A blade once wielded by the the mighty champion of Tzeenzch known as The Excoriator. The soul of a Greater Daemon has been sealed inside, making the blade capable of cutting through even the thickest of armors... Rng....S....AP....type
.N/A....+1....2....melee, specialist weapon, greater daemonic essence
Greater Daemonic Essence: To represent the Greater Daemon sealed inside the Excoriator's blade, any successful invulnerable saves made against this weapon must be re-rolled..
Librarian Psychic Powers:
The Relictors chapter Librarians have access to the psychic disciplines of Divination, Biomancy, Telekinesis and Pyromancy. If a librarian has the mastery 3 upgrade, they are allowed to generate one power from either Tzeench, Slaanesh or Nurgle disciplines. If this is done, no powers may be generated from the Relictors discipline.
Any power generated from Tzeenzch, Slaanesh or Nurgle increases corruption by 4 points.
Discipline: Relictors(3 points of corruption upon generation of at least one power)
Spoiler:
Primaris: The winds of the Warp(1 warp charge)
The librarian calls a hefty wind, infused with warp energies.
TWotW is a witch-fire power with the following profile:
RNG..............S......AP....type
unlimited......5.......5......salvo3/5
1-2 Chaotic Streak(1 warp charge)
The librarian focuses his powers onto a certain point and phases himself, and his unit through the material realm in a single, swift and aggressive maneuver.
Witch-fire, "draw" a line of 4d6, move the Librarian and any unit he is with to the end of the line. Every model, friendly or foe under the line takes a S6 AP5 hit with the concussive special rule.
Any unit the librarian is with, has to immediately take a dangerous terrain check after resolving this power's effects.
NOTE! This power requires no rolls to hit, but a line of sight is required. The models are placed in base contact within each other, as if they had just deep struck. Any models that end up in difficult or dangerous terrain, take the dangerous terrain test as normal. Move any models that would land upon impassable terrain back the minimal required mount to prevent this from happening.
3-4 Warp Surge(1 warp charge)
The librarian bestows chaotic power on his target, either as a blessing or a curse.
Warp Surge can be targeted at any one allied or enemy model within it's range of 18". It behaves exactly like a malediction when targeting an enemy and like a blessing when aimed at a friendly model. The model must immediately take a toughness, strength and initiative check. Each failed check adds +1 to the appropriate characteristic for the rest of the turn, but the model immediately takes a single wound with no armor saves allowed at the end of their next player turn. If casted on a model owned by the user of the power, the hits are taken at the end of the current turn.
5 Warp Portal(2 warp charges)
The caster opens a rift between Real-space and the Warp, effectively altering the courses of any nearby deep striking units and changing the battlefield through heavy distortion.
Warp Portal is effectively a witch-fire power. Place the large blast template within 6" of the librarian casting, and scatter it D6 inches. The caster's ballistic skill has no effect regarding this power.
Any friendly non-vehicle units that are placed in the reserve may immediately arrive within the area of the large blast, without further scatter. If any terrain piece is at least 75% under the template, remove it from the table. Any difficult terrain under the template automatically becomes dangerous, and any clear terrain becomes difficult for the rest of the game.
6 Chaotic Possession (1 warp charges)
The librarian concentrates on creating a special warp rift around his allies, effectively allowing daemons passing from their own world to the material one. The daemons seek out nearby vessels to set into...
This power is a blessing. The unit nearest to the librarian(if he has joined unit, it counts as the nearest one) gain the "preferred enemy" special rule and +1 WS/BS characteristics for the remainder of the turn. Nominate one weapon from each model (the librarian excluded) to receive one better AP.
The Army List
Radical Inquisition Any RI units listed below count towards the respective FO slots, as listed. They have their own entry merely for the sake of convenience. Radical Inquisitorial units may only be taken if a radical inquisitor is included in the army.

If it is I suppose the power is sort of silly against horde armies for example. Also please clarify whether placing the template within 6" means that the central hole must be within 6", the whole template must be within 6", or if it means that any part of the template must be within 6". It should also be stated whether the units arriving inside the blast arrive via deepstrike, or do they walk on from the template as if it's a table edge, and does the whole unit have to fit on the template?
I have concluded, that the 6" should be measured from the middle of the template. All models in the unit should deep strike INSIDE the template. If some models don't fit, it isn't all that crucial. Still, you should attempt to make as many fit under the template as possible.
EDIT(7th of February, 2013 9:14PM): Fixed some confusing and lacking "issues" with the rules. Also added some back-story to the Dark Armaments in general. Scribed weapon and psychic power fluff with different color for easier reading.

Why are you increasing the cost of a Relic Blade and then making it worse in every way, and then adding on a complicated mechanic that is a further detriment?

I didn't see the mechanic as that complicated. And i made it worse, because this is a fan dex. I'll first make the slightly UP, if not completely. Thus, I can modify them if needed. It is easier to add up quality to stuff than nerf them into the Warp.

They are a dark angel successor chapter ( theorized) that uses chaos to fight chaos, so they use daemon weapons, banners and other chaos tainted things, they also use some xeno tech, like necron items, with the new allies rules they can now be made again fairly easily, so long as your opponent doesn't mind you using chaos items on your codex marine units.
Op, what other ideas do you have? I also have a relictors army and would be interested in seeing?

I've been pretty much planning on making some more wargear and adding radical inquisition units. Also I'll make a "Relictors" psychic discipline to best make use of their fluff and nature as a chapter. This will include daemon summoning and possibly a warp portal thing. Not much needs to change since they are a codex-adherent chapter. I'll make rules for Librarian DeCario, whom was the first of the chapter to utilize chaos wargear and for the chapter master, Artekus Bardane, who makes use of the three-headed flail that screeches (I think of calling it "The Screeching Flail").
Also I've been thinking about a "conclave" squad

I'd say a big no no to daemon summoning, they use chaos against chaos, daemons are too intelligent and will just as likel. Turn on them as the enemy, now summoning deamons into weapons temporarily would be.cool, like binding them to the relictors units bolters for some buff, with a downside of course haha

True. But I remember hearing somewhere in a gaming club about their habits of summonig daemons. After the battles, they would simply exterminate them as any good astartes would do. You see, even Dark Eldars have the technology to control them, so why not the Relictors? Although the DE are far more advanced...
But I did like the idea with the xeno artifacts.
I'm still heavily considering of leaving the daemons out though.

Well theres the thing, if this is post gk attack, you can make.them full on chaos or full on loyalist, its your choice.
How about allowing JUST the characters to take a mark of chaos, this could represent there slow downfall to chaos, on the flipside also allow only units without a mark to have chapter tactics "prefured enemy" chaos and have the stubborn rule and atsknf.

I'd take the game turn toughness test thing out for the dark armament, I like the D3 random effects though.
I had forgot the Black Templars, Thank you for reminding me. I put in the toughness check to the dark armamen, because I wanted to nerf it into 35pts-ish levels of quality.
I guess the random effects are quite balanced though.

Ok a few things you should probably clarify/change on the rules.
First of all, I think the Dark Armament costs too much for a weapon that's only AP3, and would probably drop the cost to somewhere around 25pts.
Second, you should clarify how the librarian's squad is placed when using Chaotic Streak (whether they bunch up like deepstriking of remain in the formation thay had before using the power). You could also add some kind of limitations to firing heavy weapons while using it. Also, what happens if the squad ends in impassable terrain/on top of other models? You'll also want to make it hit automatically, unless it's actually intended to need a roll to hit.
Third, I feel that Chaotic Possession should only use 1 warp charge, seeing that it isn't really all that powerful. Oh and you should probably limit the use of Warp Portal to your own units.

Looks a whole lot better now. Still a few things that need clarifying though.
First of all, what does the Warp Surge need a line of sight to? The enemy unit targeted by the Librarian's unit or the direction the unit intends to surge? I'd also remove the word 'back' from moving the models from terrain since it's quite restricting and may cause silly things because the unit needs to be as close to each other as possible and the models can't really be moved any further towards the center of the squad.
What units/models can take Chaotic Artefacts?
How long does the Dark Armament retain its statline? Until the next time it's rolled for?
On the topic of Warp Portal, I suppose it isn't meant to make the ENTIRE table difficult, and all terrain dangerous for the rest of the game, just the terrain under the template? If it is I suppose the power is sort of silly against horde armies for example. Also please clarify whether placing the template within 6" means that the central hole must be within 6", the whole template must be within 6", or if it means that any part of the template must be within 6". It should also be stated whether the units arriving inside the blast arrive via deepstrike, or do they walk on from the template as if it's a table edge, and does the whole unit have to fit on the template?
Regardless of the rulings, I think it's a fair attempt at making a fandex and I'd gladly play against it.

I was actually going to get to making some actual force organization rules later. I am aware that it isn't clarified yet, but as of now let's just say that a captain/a librarian may replace his close combat weapon with one of the chaos artifacts. The "Necrodermis Armor" is only valid for captains and chaplains for now.

Subject: Re:LlamaAgility's Relictors codex (revised and returned!)
Well the necrodermis armour seems really expensive for what actually is only fnp, since captains and chaplains already have a 4++ save, so the additional effect in reality does nothing against anything with the exception of a few things such as the swarmlord, or null zone. For comparison, a captain can have artificer armour for 15pts, and cassius costs 25pts more than a usual chappy, so why would you ever buy necrodermis armour? I'd probably make it allow the user re-roll armor saves of 1 or something like that so it actually has a use.
Blade of eternal darkness. 20pts
type: melee
Range: -
Str: +1
Ap3
Special rules: deamon weapon, darkness eternal: if the bearer of the blade kills an enemy character in a challenge, he may declare the next GAME turn as nightfight.
Shard of the monolith 30pts
Type: melee
Str+2
Ap1
Special rules: unwieldy, specialist weapon, shard of the monolith: if the bearer of this blade takes a wound, he then gains the "it will not die" special rule, if the bearer suffers instant death, this item has no effect.
Book of the end times. 30pts
This allows the bearer to use one more psychic power than normally would be allowed, this power may be one already cast previously, this does not use up an additional warp token, this does not increase the power level of the bearer and cannot be used to activate a force weapon. After useing the power roll a d6, on a roll of a 1 the book is lost and cannot be used again for the rest of the battle.
Banner of starlight. 40pts
This may be taken instead of a company standard.
The bearer ( and any unit they're with) have the shroud special rule, in addition, if the night fight rules are in effect this banner has no effect....sparkle sparkle
Hope these helped

I actually like these ideas a lot, save for the fact that the blade of eternal darkness is extremely cheap compared to Dark Armament already introduced in the dex.
Automatically Appended Next Post: Just to add some ideas of my own:
Infested carbine/pistol (10 or 15pts):
Spoiler:
A handgun infested with highly contagious viral compounds.
type: assault 1
range: 12"
S: 4
AP: 5
Special rules: rending (5+), viral outbreak, gets hot
Viral outbreak: should the compounds harnessed by the weapon break free in the tissues of the target, a needlessly agonising death ensues.
Any rolls to wound of a 6 cause instant death, if the shot inflicts an unsaved wound.
Artistic pendant (20pts):
Spoiler:
An artistic pendant blessed by the Chaos god Slaanesh. Beautiful colours dance around its surface, capturing the eyes of any who behold its bearer.
Any enemy unit targeting the bearer's unit with a shooting attack (even overwatch!) must first pass a leadership test using the lowest leadership in the unit.
If the test is failed, the unit may not shoot or declare a charge that player turn. Vehicles and units consisting entirely of models with a leadership of 10 are unaffected.
Any psykers (friend or foe) targeting the bearer's unit suffer a leadership penalty of -2 for the purposes of their psychic test.
Feel free to use them however you like.

Well, thank you both for your help. I will get to work on adding them to the codex immediately.
I'll have to tweak the pricing on the Blade of Eternal Darkness, however, as it might make The Dark Armament seem overpriced for what it does comparing to the BoED.
I'll add Enor's ideas to the Radical Inquisitorials' side of the 'dex.

Didn't notice this reply. I think I should reduce the cost to 20pts and add up on something. Like that ability to re-roll all saving throws of a .
Automatically Appended Next Post: All right, Necrodermis Armor is now a suit of Artificer armor. That makes it a 2+Sv that grants FNP and cannot be entirely removed by lascannons and the like.
I think I should make a note, that each armor penetrating hit substracts one from the saving roll, until the end of the turn.
Nothing really wrong with the degrading armour, even if it does involve a lot of bookkeeping.
The inquisition is, at least imo, radically (pun intended) overpriced. The inquisitor could be brought down in points cost to the GK level of 25pts. Also practically all of his upgrdes could be shaved down by 5-10pts. I mean he`s paying for wargear like a SM captain even though he's just S3 Ws4.
The stormtroopers, I feel could also cheaper since they don't have their IG special rules. Would you buy 10
stormtroopers and a transport when in the end you're paying around 200pts for 10 guardsmen with shiny gear?
Also don't forget adding unit types and making the sarge a character.
