I don't think that it is particularly fair that at the moment that only the codex armies can give relics to there characters so I had an idea for relics that can be taken by any army, excluding those that already have a codex which are:

Holy Relics
You may give a single character in your army one of the following Holy Relics. Named characters already have one or more artefacts, and cannot be given any of the following relics.

Sacred Blade
The weapon used by this warrior is no ordinary weapon but is instead an ancient relic used by many before them that has defeated many enemies.

Select a single Melee used by the character. Increase its strength profile by 1.

Master-Crafted Firearm
The firearm used by this warrior was created by a master artisan and is far more powerful then an ordinary weapon

Select a single ranged weapon used by the character. Increase its strength profile by 1.

Legendary Armor
The armor used by this warrior is said to be able to stop even the powerful of blows from harming its user.

Increase the models SV characteristic by 1 to a maximum of 2+

Legendary armor is too good. The other two options are generally far too weak.

Yes, Space Marines and CSM have relics which give +1 Save as well as an extra additional buff, but Space Marine characters generally A, already have access to a 2+ save at the cost of mobility options or B, aren't hard to kill regardless of their armor.

Giving a 6w T5 character (like a SM Biker) a 2+ save is strong. Giving a 14w, T8 character (a Tervigon) a 2+ save is broken.

your mind

I like the idea of generic wargear cards. Second edition used that sort of thing if I remember correctly.

That's better than most faction relics, which are usually limited and only give +1 to Smite.
