All the New Codex Previews

Here’s the latest codex reveals and more for Warhammer 40k! Be sure to see how these previews match up to what left to release on the GW Roadmap and the remaining Rumor Engine teasers.

Space Marine Codex Table of Contents Revealed New Units

Senatte66 on Reddit,took the new Space Marine Table of Contents page out of theCodex preview from July and went all CSI on it, and all of it was pretty much revealed this weekend.

5 new units were revealed (or confirmed- depending on how you look at it) in the video above!

Not only that but we even got some rules revealed too! Check out what’s coming in the near future to bolster the Space Marines!

Captain with Master-Crafted Heavy Bolt Rifle

This captain will surely shoot like a beast and he is also wearing Gravis Armor, so he’ll be hard to take down. His Captain status is sure to bring a great aura or two as well.

Wait a minute… a heavy bolt rifle? Yes, indeed! Heavy bolt rifles also happen to be the standard armament of… wait for it… Heavy Intercessors!

Heavy Intercessors

And they’re called that for a reason – like their Captain, these bad-boys aren’t just heavily armed, they’re heavilyarmouredtoo, thanks to their Gravis armour. A Toughness 5 Troops unit with 3 Wounds apiece, anyone?

The datasheet doesn’t lie, these heavy troops pack a serious punch. Gravis is now coming as a troop choice is nice too. Now your elite primaris force has an even more elite troop option that can bring the heavy support if need be.

Eradicators

Is that a Primaris wielding a Multi-Melta I see? You bet it is!

The kit includes loads more options, such as the ability to swap out their melta rifles for aneven harder-hittingheavy version. You’ll even be able to give one Eradicator in the set a multi-melta, complete with its devastating new profile.

This re-release from Indomitus is now also multi-part, so you should get a little more freedom with it than any Indomitus versions you may have. With of course the new Multi-Melta upgrade option for at least one model in the squard.

Bladeguard Veterans

As of the new codex, Bladeguard Veterans will also be officially picking up the Deathwing/Wolf Guard keywords too, so they’ll seamlessly fit in as members of the fighting elite within the structure of the Dark Angels and Space Wolves Chapters.

These new Bladeguard Veterans will also be coming in a new multipart kit so you’ll have more poses and kits to choose from. Hurrah for freedom of choice!

Assault Intercessors

A multipart Assault Intercessors kit is also on its way. In addition to more flexible posing options throughout, the squad’s Sergeant can be assembled with a hand flamer or plasma pistol, and can even wield a power sword, power fist, or thunder hammer too!

Not only does this kit include super sweet weapon options now, but also fun running legs to for all those primaris models that just wanna go fast! Let’s face it, if you are not first, you’re last right?

New Chaplain Rules

The new codex has also consolidated many of the most popular rules features that first made an appearance in the various Psychic Awakening books. The Chapter Command rules are one such example, meaning you’ll be able to upgrade one of your Chapter’s Chaplains, Librarians, Techmarines, and a variety of other Characters to the head of their order, but at a small cost inPoweror points instead of using a Stratagem.

All of these seem okay and its always nice to have options. Hopefully, this consolidation of rules from Psychic Awakening means 9th edition will have fewer books for us all to keep track of!

Crusade Dreadnought Upgrading

Similar to the Necron Destroyer upgrade, Space Marines can turn a character into a Dreadnought! When a Primaris character gets their second battle scar, you can remove and replace them with a Dreadnought with the same XP and amount of battle honors. They can only be a psyker Dreadnought if they were a Psyker beforehand.

That’s just one of the cool things you can do. There’s even the opportunity for one of yourfirstbornCharacters to brave crossing the Rubicon Primaris, though doing so does not come without risk…

They also snuck in a little hint about upgrading basic marine characters into Primaris counter-parts. A cool lore option for your Crusade games, considering the state of the Rubicon Primaris.
