This Came up in a game today. We couldnt find it in a the da codex. I told my oppent since it was not in the codex they dont have it.
Was i wrong since we couldnt find it in the codex?

**Baldsmug**

Yeah they do, check out the unit profiles in the army list section, its the first special rule listed.

**armitron187**

So use too seeing it on the special rules for the army. I saw the selection but not all the da have that special rule mainly the hqs and the deathwing. Is that a mistake?

**SoloFalcon1138**

remember, the units that may not have ATSKNF have Fearless or Inner Circle.

**Breng77**

So a few things here.

Unlike for old Marine Dexes ATSKNF is now a universal special rule in the BrB, so given that DA are the first Marine Dex in 6th they don't have the rule printed in their Codex. I assume this will hold True for the rest of the 6th ed marine books.

Second as has been mentioned DA essentially have 2 types of units.

Inner Circle Units (DW, RW, HQ choices) all these units are fearless and as such lack ATSKNF (a problem against powers like terrify)

The other units all have Stubborn and ATSKNF. (Rule called Grim resolve or something I think)

**Mozzamanx**

Slight tangent to the discussion but Inner Circle units are lacking ATSKNF? Does this then mean that they can be caught up in a Sweeping Advance when under the effects of Terrify?

Shenanigans ho!

**MarkyMark**

Unit composed of just those, yes you can i.e terminators and such.

**Kisada II**

Inner circle = fearless so no you can't sweep them because they don't flee
NM missed the terrify piece

Ravenwing aren't Inner Circle (excluding Sammael obviously), they get ATSKNF and Grim Resolve like most of the army, this is even true of the Black Knights.

**Vector Strike**

May I use this thread for another rules-query about DA bikes?

In Battlescribe, when I give a DA bike to a Librarian, (Int.)Chaplain or Techmarine, they get Skilled Rider besides the bike item, in the preview list. But, in the codex, the DA Bike only gives the Bike type and a TL boltgun. Am I missing something?

**HoverBoy**

In the old rulebook ICs automatically got skilled rider, guess BS is still full of that erm BS.

**TechMarine1**

Inner circle are fearless and grim resolve are stubborn.

**Drunkspleen**

As HoverBoy said, the skilled rider would be a throwback to 5th edition and earlier where it was an automatic rule for ICs, as it stands, only Black Knights and Sammael get it in the current incarnation of Dark Angels (However do note, a whole unit benefits even if only one model has the rule).
