http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/16.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net BT codex and was planning on including something similar to Righteous Zeal. However I am stuck as to whether on taking casualties to shooting the unit should have to pass their leadership to charge forwards as was the case before, or whether they should have to pass to remain in place. My thoughts behind this were that in the latter scenario, the BT are having to control themselves and refrain from charging off recklessly. Which do you think is best?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560989/6208581.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560989/6208581.page GMT BT were featured in Demonifuge and just before codex Armageddon came out, I have this to say.

I have nothing but respect and admiration for you efforts brother, but since we already have new rules and maybe a supplement someday soon perhaps this might be a bit to soon?

If not then continue on brother and may the emperor guide you to victory and glory on your crusades.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560989/6208615.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560989/6208615.page GMT , I only meant to have a codex for crusading at home, just with a few new bits and pieces I made up.

Here'e the Righteous Zeal rule as it stands:

Righteous Zeal:

Losing battle brothers to the insolent enemies of the Emperor only stokes the already fervent anger of the Black Templars, driving them to push forward even more determinedly so that they might avenge their fallen. However this is not always tactically sound and the crusaders must check their rage lest they recklessly charge towards the foe.

If any Black Templar unit takes casualties (servitors do not count as casualties for this purpose) from enemy fire, take a leadership check at the end of that shooting phase. If the unit fails, they must move 2D6 inches towards the nearest visible enemy unit. If they pass, they remain in place. Note that regardless of how many casualties the unit takes or to how many different enemy units they lose battle brothers to, they only take one Leadership test for Righteous Zeal and only move once as a result of it.

If the unit looses 25% or more of its current models to one turn of enemy shooting, test for Righteous Zeal first at the end of that Shooting phase. If the test is failed, they do not have to check their Leadership for losing a quarter of the unit as well: they are too enraged to pay heed to such losses. If the test is passed and the unit remains in place, they subsequently have to also take the conventional morale check for losing 25% of its models.

Did the BT keep some version of zeal in the new dex?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560989/6209057.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560989/6209057.page GMT
