Only thing is you must spend 10 pts for krak nades, so they sorta cost the same as before..

Can Armored Sentinels take Augur Arrays?

This is something I want to know before I go too overboard assembling Sentinels...

It does make me question the "just two" specials for Scions though...

Why not 3! Gah! RUINED!

Because it's not fluffy. An highly trained detachment of soldiers hailing from the IoM's most prestigious military school should not have access to more special equipment than a bunch of grunts who were lucky enough to not die.
Wait...

Great. Spanish players are going to be thrilled that the translator forgot one sentence

Eh, I'll just live without 'em.

If only there were something which updated problems in a codex. Some kind of errata system. Surely GW would never delete something like that out of the blue...

I note as well that you can still have 3 specials AND a HWT if you want.

Same, They were always an afterthought. I am much more excited that we can still take three special weapons.

Really looking forward to trying and build a list this weekend. IG armored is still going to be... interesting.

Cool, my Valkyrie finely gets its crew chief.

Too bad the Primaris no longer counts as a cheap HQ. Guess it's back to the FW Salamander.

Yes they can; the only thing they cannot take are stubers/storm bolters, dozer blades and fire barrels; thought in order to sue the Augur, the ‘source’ must be on the table already, so no outflanking scouts and then deepstrike in the same turn.

And Inquistor Jex saves the day! +1 interwebs to you sir. So really Vets had no price change, just options flipped around (well, cheaper doctrines too).

Overall this isn't so much of a wash anymore (in my opinion).

Mwhahahahaha.

Armoured Sentinels with Augur Arrays as part of my daggone AM force with my Scions deep striking...that can get nasty, I think.

On the other hand Spanish players can add up to 9 special weapons in their IS. Seriously, did somebody proofread the Spanish codex?

eh... aren't vets with triple plas, lascannon, and camo cloaks only like 135pts? Basically a unit that was good before now has +1 cover saves and defensive grenades, but no krak, for the same cost.

I might not be good at this game anymore, but that seems like a good unit.

Must be because there is not other logical reason.

wow Harker sucks even harder now than he used to.

But he gives relentless to his squad now

fair enough, but now he doesnt confer infiltrate, stealth and move through cover to his squad anymore, nevermind having lost feel no pain.

And relentless on veterans really I dont know how thats useful...would have been pretty solid in 5th edition

Are we correct in reading that he lost the whole Catachan Devils thing (infiltrate, camo, etc.)?

Yes.

Yeah....what the....

Relentless to the whole squad is nice but at the cost of everything else & fluff? Pretty dumb

You should no by now: GW doesn't give any of the Legions rules. That includes Penal Legions.

Wrong.

Legion of the Damned got an entire codex.

I hope Harker enjoys the shelf because that is where he will be living from now on.

I used to like Harker. Used him all the time in a crazy grav insertions vet sniper squad that always became a high priority target.
Yes, it really was a veteran sniper squad.
Looks like that unit gets to continue in the new codex.

So can I assume that autocannon chimeras are still FW only?
