So I have heard rumblings that the csm are getting updated to have a similar chapter tactics format that SM armies currentlu have. Is this true? Who knows for sure but if that's the case I think it's a step in the right direction for said army.

Pretty much I thought I'd put forward my own tactics for each of the traitor legions/big warbands.

Iron Warriors

- Any 2 units with warband tactics Iron Warriors may choose to gain one of the following rules which last till the end of the battle:

Wrecker
Tank Hunter
Furious Charge

-At the beginning of the game, after all units have deployed , select a piece of terrain. Said piece has its cover save value increased by 1.


Night Lords

-All models with Warband tactics Night Lords have the Fear special rule. All Independent characters with Night Lords tactics force a -1 modifier to the fear test they cause.

-Raptors & Warp Talons may be taken a compulsory troops and have the Furious charge special rule.


Word Bearers

-Possessed become troops and gain the Rending special rule.



More to follow soon. Just thought I'd share what I have now

It's probably better to say the Night Lord fear penalty is in addition to any other penalties. Otherwise someone will probably try and argue it's a set modifier so no matter how many debuffs there are it's always -1.

Not sure where you heard that rumor but it's most likely false.
