in one of the Apocalypse Rulebooks there is a mention of a 'Sever the Head, Slay the Body' stratagem for Space Marine players i believe yet i'm pretty sure its not in either of the two books.
Can anyone pinpoint it for me?
Cheers

You're right. It is not included in any of the books. Hurrah for GW's extensive proof-reading!

GW and proof-reading?
That's an urban myth, that is.
The stratagem does not exist except for that reference.

thanks, its nice to know it ain't just me.
i spent ages buying/converting/painting the models needed to make the selection in the Apocalypse rulebook and then i came to use the rules and we spent an hour looking through everything we could find to see what it was.
never mind eh. Cheers GW

There is one close to it in name, "Trophy kill" I think.
Most people I know who used that stratagem, just used it AS "TK".
