• Units can disembark from any transport after it moves but cannot charge
• Marine vehicles don't care about primaris
• Objective Control is determined by adding the OC stat of all models together
• Models can move over friendly models. Monster,Vehicle cant move over each other
• Desperate Breakout is core fallback option. D6 for each model. Models die on 1 or 2.
• Can't split a weapon's shots.
• Big Guns Never Tire: -1 on all guns in melee. Monster,Vehicle can be shot at while engaged at a -1.
• Charging models must end closer to target and in B2B if possible.
• Defender takes priority in fight-first and normal selection.
• Pile-in must get into B2B if possible.
• Ranked fighting is now B2B
• A model's Aura can effect themselves if they have the keyword.
• Strategic Reserves has point limit (rather than a CP cost). Deepstrike and similar rules don't count against this limit.
• Insane Bravery Strategem: 1cp and is used after failed Battleshock test.
• Grenade Strategem: 8in ; 6d6 ; 4+ = MW
• Tank Shock Strategem: Choose a melee weapon. Roll D6 equal to its Strength, add 2D6 if S>T. 5+ = MW
• Heroic Intervention Strategem: And unit can perform it, but this is the only way to do them now.
• Fire Overwatch: Can be used in Movement or Charge phases.

• Can Monster,Vehicle shoot outside engagement? - The way the shooting in engagement part of the rules says the they are an exception and the way the BigGuns section doesn't say 'must' or 'only' for targeting inside engagement make it seem like this is possible.
• Charging needs to be tweaked to actually say it requires to be ended in engagement when it is not enough to actually get B2B. The way it is worded there is a sweetspot of rolling jut enough to technically get engaged but the rules only require that you ROLL enough but say nothing about actually ending in engagement. So a unit could theoretically charge and move technically closer to capture an objective but never engage. I think they overlooked this and got thorough about the B2B part and overlooked the engagement part.
• Epic Challenge Strat: does the attacking model need to be engaged with the Character? Seems like they really are treating them like a unit but it is just so different I am not sure of intention.

1. You must include at least one CHARACTER
2. You can only include one of each named EPIC HERO
3. You can only include up to three units of each datasheet
4. However, you can include up to six units of each datasheet with the BATTLELINE or DEDICATED TRANSPORT keywords
5. Each CHARACTER can only have one Enhancement, you can’t include more than three Enhancements in total, and these must all be different

Psychic abilities are now spread out among the pertinent phases.

• Tested in Command Phase
• Units below half-strength/health must test
• Must succeed on 2D6 against Ld stat

OC becomes '0'
Cannot use Strategems
Must take Desperate Breakout test to Fallback

• Note - most every USR is built as a bonus and not a debuff like the old Heavy or assault.
• Critical Hits/Wounds is default a '6' but is improved by Anti- and possibly army rules.
• There seem to be a few rules that are treated as USR's but are much more limited and will have descriptions on unit cards.

Why no USR for…

• RR Hits
• RR 1's to Hit
• RR 1 Hit
• RR 1's to Wound
• RR 1 Wound
• +x AP (Piercing X is perfect here)

I've seen some game system that had “Accurate L1/L2/L3” to convey what kind of re-rolls you get. Something like that would be neat since Hit re-rolls are so common in in 10th where there is supposed to be less re-rolls. Maybe Accurate for Hits and Rending for Wounds.

The concept of 'Fully Visible' is what most of this hinges on now. Not in leak.

Benefit of Cover = +1 save

• Can never give you better than 3+
• Does not stack. You are either benefiting or not.
• Also cover is on or off for the entire attack sequence. If entire target unit is not FV to entire attacking unit then models that are causing that get cover even if certain models can see them. Basically to simplify fast dice. Not missing out by doing so.

Mostly a lateral move from 9th it seems.

Tough as ever. Seems like they will still have a lot of tricks to make 3 models feel like 10.

Way simpler doctrina system. Possibly OP mortal wound generation.

Possibly OP fate dice mechanic. Though models are pretty fragile still.

Simplified order system. Still pretty solid.

Pretty similar to 9th rules so far. Daemons is daemons.

Feels like they are still gonna encourage lots of `dogs.

Solid marine stats with optional buffs that can be risky.

Generally nerfed if there isn't more to them. Not as durable but they with wither you down once they spread across the board. Looking worse with every article.

Bondsman is still around so a mix of knights seems the encouraged way to play. Canis Rex is a beast.

Overall a huge nerf. Might go from being as elite and durable to a more straightforward shooting army with some bodies. Points are a huge part of where they end up.

They can actually dies now and the shooting might be reigned it a tad.

Trimmed down but more preparatory Waaagh. General stat buffs or lack of nerfs seemingly.

Solid stats. Ability to focus down a target. Seems like most play styles will be viable even from the little we've seen.

Have to work for plan out their shooting, but it can can get real good and more focused that the previous shoot gallery it was before.

The Rituals are amazing and reliable. Ahriman is OP.

Scary bugs are scary…and not so afraid of you.

Less reliable but still very powerful army rule on top of slightly better stats.
