Games Workshop Warhammer 40k - Space Marine du Chaos Rhino (2019)

Product Information

Adeptus Mechanicus - The Adeptus Mechanicus use the Rhino as their primary transportation vehicle for Skitarii regiments. The modern Mars Pattern Rhino(MkIIc) also saw use during the Great Crusade, thought not at the levels seen with the Deimos pattern. The Mars Pattern Rhino was more easily reproduced, but had inferior environmental and secondary systems. [7]

Generally, I believe that these secondary objectives are about 50% of what will keep Thousand Sons afloat competitively. They give the army more to do with its psykers and help it stay ahead on scoring with an army that is otherwise filled with relatively pedestrian datasheets. Warlord Traits If a unit from your army starts your Movement phase embarked within a TRANSPORT model, that unit can disembark in that phase. Three Warlord Traits. Magnus now gets three Warlord Traits, which means that as your warlord, he reduces incoming damage by 1, re-rolls his deny the witch tests, can get 2 Cabbalistic Rituals, and knows every power in the book. The downside is that he has to be your warlord to get these benefits. Bloodletters • Plaguebearers • Horror of Tzeentch • Daemonette • Nurglings • Beast of Nurgle • Plague Drone • Flamer • Screamer

Imperial Armour Volume Two, Second Edition - Warmachines of the Adeptus Astartes, pp. 183-191, 224-225, 233 This pattern of the Rhino also has several different marks, such as the Mark Ic, which is the most prevalent. An unknown mark of Deimos Rhino chassis is used in the construction of older, lesser-known Rhino variants such as the Deimos Predator and its variants the Deimos Predator Infernus and Deimos Predator Executioner. There are many different Marks and Patterns of the standard Rhino and its chassis in use throughout the Imperium, including the following:

There are some great new stratagems here to consider. Ensorcelled Infusion improves the AP of a vehicle’s ranged weapons by 1 while it’s within 6” of a friendly Psyker. Unwavering Phalanx reduces incoming damage on a Rubric or Scarab Terminator unit by 1 (Mike P: Dustingly Resilient?). Implacable Guardians makes a non-Magnus character untargetable while it’s within 3” of a friendly Rubrics or Scarab Terminators unit, and Malefic Scroll just straight-up causes Smite or another Witchfire power to do 3 mortal wounds instead of D3 – a very handy way to reduce variance.

They lost a ton of stratagem support and dropped to WS 4+ from 3+, and the army is now limited in how many you can include based on the number of rubric units. The only upside is that they now cost 7 points per model, making a 10-model squad of T4, 5+ invulnerable save models for holding objectives a pretty amazing deal. They aren’t as cheap as cultists, but the upgrade in durability is almost always going to be worth it. Just note: Tzaangors aren’t CORE. CultistsRobust and versatile, and able to resist the most hostile of environments, the Rhino has become the basic troop transport for Space Marine squads. It has also been used by many other trusted branches of the Imperial armed forces, including the Adeptus Mechanicus, Adepta Sororitas, Adeptus Arbites, Adeptus Custodes, and the forces of the Inquisition. An STC design, the durable, proven Rhino chassis serves as the foundation for an entire range of Adeptus Astartes battle tanks, each modified to better serve a particular role. During the fabrication of a Rhino, Tech-priests perform a wide range of rituals before the Ceremony of Commissioning is undertaken.

Rubrics aren’t nearly as durable as Plague Marines and they’re not really effective in melee but they can buff themselves in useful ways and they have some very strong mid-range shooting they can make use of. The unit gives you 1 cabal point and if you take an Icon of flame the unit will generate 2 per turn for you instead. Another new upside is that they’re immune to morale, which at least means never having to worry about losing models to attrition. Renegade Space Marines - Space Marines that have left the Imperium but do not worship Chaos use the Rhino as their main form of battlefield transportation. In addition to the nine Warlord Traits tied to the Grand Cults of the Thousand Sons, we have six generic traits, most of them returning from the prior Codex, with a few adjustments. Helbrutes basically look like they did in Codex: Death Guard. If you were hoping for the non-Nurgle ones to keep their 8” movement well, prepare to be disappointed. Thousand Sons Helbrutes have Monstrous Resilience to reduce incoming damage by 1 and the ability to re-roll wound rolls of 1 if they’ve taken any damage. They do have a couple of things going for them over Death Guard Helbrutes however, in that there are buffs that can improve their accuracy such as Ensorcelled Infusion to give them +1 to hit, and as an ARCANA ASTARTES unit they enjoy a 5+ invulnerable save, which significantly boosts their durability. They might have some play as a result. Scarab Occult Terminators
