Oman(!) codexin virittelyä II: Paluu

[Darkmage7280]

Jep, nyt jatkuu urakka taas. Koetan pikkuhiljaa saada codexin kallistumaan ehtoopuolelle. Maistiaisiksi tähän hätään pari speciaalicharrua; molemmat lähistelijöitä. Toinen kompaktimpi veijari, joka voidaan ajoneuvon/jetbiken kyydissä saada jopa mättämäänkin, toinen on vanha läski, joka lyllertää lascien maalitauluna kentän halki.

MUROSAK ASHUNTIRIL(Black Siels)

Ashuntiril of the Murosak –clan was the only survivor of his family, and indeed, of his city, when the forces of the Black Legion descended on it to secure the area and the entire planet in preparation of an upcoming offensive in the neighbouring star system. Remnants of his clan rescued the little boy from the ruins of the city and adopted him, impressed by Ashuntiril’s immense will to live, to fight and avenge the death of his family. Training and preparing himself ceaselessly for war, Ashuntiril spent his waking hours in gruelling training, sparring against the mightiest warriors he could possibly find. As years passed and he grew to manhood, Ashuntiril abruptly left the remains of his clan and began travelling the galaxy in search of the Black Legion, attracting other Black SieL along the way, uniting members from clans that had battled each other since the days of the Predecessors.
Along his ongoing journey he has faced and fought champions of most races in this galaxy, from Tyranid monsters to the Lords of Dark Eldar, and triumphed in nearly every encounter. An entire cruiser in his fleet is dedicated to the trophies he has gathered during the years, and passage aboard the vessel is considered a great honour for any member of the army he leads through the stars.
Yet no enemy is as hated to him as the Chaos Space Marines of the Black Legion. He will go to considerable lengths to engage any Black Legion force, be it a small warband or a mighty fleet, and many of the Traitor Legion’s commanders are incensed by his constant attacks. Whispered rumours suggest that even the Arch-Fiend Abaddon the Despoiler himself is starting to take notice, but Ashuntiril cares not: as long as the Legion exists, he will fight it, and any other enemy that crosses his path, until the day he, or the last Marine of the traitorous Legion, breathes his last.

Wargear: Staff of Deliverance, particle pistol, Shredder Grenades, particle grenades, force field, bio-monitor*

* = Bio-monitor estää instakillaamisen; instakillaavat aseet tekevät vain yhden woundin

SPECIAL RULES

Independent Character, Furious Charge, Fearless

Staff of Deliverance: Ashuntiril took this arcane weapon from the corpse of a leader of a rival clan years ago. Resembling an enormous scythe with a jagged blade, it wields through flesh and heavy armour with frightening ease.
Staff of Deliverance is a two-handed power weapon that adds +2 to Ashuntiril’s Strength.

Force field: Ashuntiril is protected by a force field generator, looted from a slain Albino SieL commander, and which has been heavily customised afterwards, creating a rippling shield of energy around him that’s powerful but also quite unreliable. Ashuntiril has an additional Invulnerable Save, equal to the roll of D6 made each turn. If a 1 is rolled, the generator has malfunctioned, and he has no Invulnerable Save at all that turn. Also, if the same value is rolled on two consecutive turns, the generator breaks down for the duration of the game, and Ashuntiril loses his Invulnerable Save.

Hatred of Chaos: Although Ashuntiril will fight any enemy of any race, servants of Chaos evoke a rage unmatched within him. When fighting an army of Chaos Space Marines, Ashuntiril gains an extra D3 attacks each turn. Any Chaos psychic power used against him and the unit he might be part of is nullified on a roll of 4+.

“Allright, who wants some?!”
-Murok Ashuntiril, to an approaching warband of World Eaters.


GANYOKH

No one knows exactly how did the monstrosity known as Ganyokh come to life. The hulking, heavily mutated SieL King was found roaming the equatorial jungles of Turtion-III during the Black Siels’ campaign against the Orks there, and was swiftly brought to serve his new masters. Having rampaged through the Greenskins’ forces throughout the successful campaign, he vanished again, until he was sighted once more hundreds of light years away on another planet, slaughtering his way through a Tyranid splinter fleet of Kraken.
During the years that have passed since his discovery, Ganyokh has been in the possession of numerous SieL armies, and little has been determined of his origins or the source of his mutations. Wild theories range from Ganyokh having been trapped aboard a Warp-bound vessel for an undetermined period, to him somehow escaping from the laboratories of Commorragh. Whatever the explanation behind his wildly transformed nature, he remains a deadly enigma. Sullen and brooding at best, openly aggressive at worst, whichever SieL army employs him, they know that he is just as likely to turn on his allies than his enemies.

Biomechanical implants: Main Interface Implant, Enhanced Stimulant Injector, Barbed Tentacles, Miasmic Cysts, Regenerative Glands, Pheromone Boosters

SPECIAL RULES

Monstrous Creature, Independent Character, Fearless

Mutated Resilience: Ganyokh’s body has mutated considerably during the decades (or perhaps centuries?) he has existed. Biological and mechanical parts of his body have fused together grotesquely, new tentacles and limbs have sprouted in places they weren’t supposed to, and bulging, swelling tissue boils underneath, and on top of, his adamantium-like skin. His Strength, Toughness and Wounds have increased by +1, although he’s rather cumbersome and has –1 Initiative (included in the profile above). Also, any weapon that would cause him to die outright, regardless of remaining wounds, such as force weapons and Blightswords of the Albino SieL, cause a single wound instead.

Enhanced Stimulant Injector: While it’s certainly debatable how “enhanced” Ganyokh’s Stimulant Injector is, none can deny its effects! These Injectors are risky enough to be used on regular Kings, but for a mutated, crazed monster such as Ganyokh, results can be particularly devastating. His Injector works just like a regular King’s (see the correspondent entry in the biomechanical upgrades –section), but consult the table below for effects. Remember that the effects apply for one turn only at a time.

1: The Injector sends an immense shockwave of extreme pain through Ganyokh’s body, causing him to collapse to the ground, roaring and whimpering. He’s Pinned for the duration of the turn.

2: The Injector won’t activate. No effects on Ganyokh.

3-4: The Injector works normally. Ganyokh’s Strength and Initiative are increased by +1.

5: The Injector goes into an overdrive. Ganyokh roars in fury, gaining not only +1 to his Strength and Initiative, but to his armour save as well, representing his bulging tissue hardening due to the effects of the stimulant. He also gains an extra attack.

6: KILL FRENZY! Oh-oh. The Injector goes completely haywire, flushing Ganyokh’s system with heavily altered chemicals, sending him on a mindless rampage of death and destruction, causing him to attack companions and enemies alike. His Strength, Initiative, and armour save are increased by +1, and he gains an extra D6 attacks, as well as the Fleet special rule. He must immediately assault the nearest unit in range, friend or foe! At the end of the turn he receives an automatic wound with no saves allowed, as his ravaged body trembles under the effects of the Stimulant.

Scary shit.. Mutta mutta mielenkiintoisia hahmoja. Pistehinnatkin tuntuvat olevan about kohdillaan. Eniten minua huolestutti kuitenkin Ganyokhin 4+ invu! Se kun jo T7 monsteri! JA ei instakillattavissa. Siis sellainen ökö että kipität kiltisti karkuun..

[Darkmage7280]

Ihan totta. Lascien/plasmojen ristitulella Ganyn voi saadakin alas, mutta ei 4+ Invulla. Invu pois. Nytkin on ihan riittävän kovanaamainen.
Ja tuli muuten hassu lapsus, mainitsin että jetbiken kyydissä Ashu voi saada jotain aikaankin, mutta

Feel no pain?! xD Regehän siltä löytyi kuiten? Olin lukevinani? Noh, invun mentyä iisisti voi hinnasta 25-30 pts tiputtaa.
Erittäin kova! Anna pojulle mopo.. Kyllä se osaa!

[Darkmage7280]

Jep, 30 pistettä lähti pois. Tuo Kunkkujen tavallinen Implant Armour, joka antaa 5+ Invun, maksaa 20 pojoa.
Feel No Pain?! Eieieieieieieieieiei! Ei nyt sentään. Armouryssa, siis tavallisessa, ei Stellaarien, on vehje jolla saa Feel No Pain -kyvyn, ja Stellaarien Symbiontilla saa FNP:n heittämällä D6:lla viitosen, mutta Kunkut eivät saa Symbionteja. (Tsekkaa codexin.) Saavatpas. No, eivät saa enää. T6 W4/5 hirviölle Feel No Pain? JUUSTOA. Kuten alkuperäisessä ketjussa ja tässä totesin, ovat Kunkut parhaimmillaan ajoneuvo- ja Carnifex -hipassa. Fexit ovat turhan hitaita, mutta Greater Daemonit ja Hive Tyrantit antavat kipakan vastuksen.
Ja Ashun voi aina panna sinne Sundogin/Conen kyytiin, kyllä sen perille saa. Eri asia miten ehjänä.

Nyt en ole vähän aikaan Sotussa käynytkään, sillä lukio painaa päälle kuin yleinen syyttäjä.

Ice Sabret kummitteli vielä äsken, nyt otin pois. Pitäis muokata koko ketjun yksiköitä jossain vaiheessa codexin mukaisiksi... Ice Sabret tosiaan ovat tehokkaampia Tempesteilla, kun kerran Jump Infantrya ovat. Arpinaamat kyykkivät paikallaan ja ampuvat. Cityfightissa veemäisiä aina siihen saakka kunnes se heavy flamer -Sentinel astelee viereen ja järjestää Arpinaamoille grillijuhlat...

Cobrat tosiaan häröilevät kiusaamassa jalkaväkeä, ja kyttäävät partikkelikranuillaan & Interceptorilla skimmerien kylkiä. Multilaser tekee tuhojaan, mutta tappavin on taatusti battle cannon: S8 AP3 Lätty sattuu. Leman Russ posauttaa suihkupyörien keskelle täysosuman; hups vaan, 184:n pisteen edestä Cobria säleiksi.

Crackshotista: JOKAINEN osuma on AP1? "Any Roll to Hit by a Scarred Elder will be at AP1. " (Jaksanu quotella leikkiä...)

Joo, jokainen Elderin osuma on AP1. Pitänee tosin tehdä tuosta Crackshotista maksullinen lisäominaisuus Elderille.

Mustien veijari aika kova, lähitaisteluun saaminen onin sitten eri asia.

Kyllä sen Cone Shellilla tai Sundogilla saa ihan hyvin perille, molemmat Fast vehicleja kuitenkin.

T7, 5 wuundia ja 3+/4+* seivit? Eikä kuole instanttiin.(Millä tuon instakillaa?) Aiiiii.
Mitenpäs tuonkin tapat? Ja, miksi mustien lähischarrulla on pisteraja johon peliin sen saa ottaa (1,500), mutta stellaarihirmulla ei?

Ei sitä instakillaakaan. Eipä niitä Hive Tyrantejakaan toisaalta instata, eikä Fexejä, jotka ovat Synapsen kantamalla. 4+ Invu lähti pois, olis turhan kova. Miten tapat Ganyokhin? Lascannonit, assault cannonit, rapid firettavat plasmat, krak missilet, railgunit, lancet, Fire Prismit, pulse laserit, starcannon (tietty), ja sitten jos on tarvetta, viimeistellään powerfistilla. Siinä on tohtori Darkmagen Ganyokh-kuuri.
Ganyn päällimmäinen tarkoitus on lähinnä vetää tulta ajoneuvoista, ja mättää isoja hirviöitä.
Pisteraja poistui Murolta, vähän hoopo olikin.

Vielä loppuun:

Aaagh, kuvia saatte odottaa jonkin aikaa. 1. En ole ehtinyt konvertoida vielä mitään. 2. En ole vielä antanut palkkapiirtäjälle toimeksiantoa.

Codexin teko jatkuu nyt fluffilla, ja yksiköiden (ja näiden fluffin) hiomisella. Esim. Desecratorista kerrotaan nyt, että Eldarien lempinimi sille on "Khornen sotavaunut", ja että ensimmäinen Desecrator, jonka Imperiumi kohtasi Aurelius Crusaden aikana, riehui tiensä läpi etulinjojen 22 kilometrin matkalta, kunnes sai kylkeensä Earthshaker-kranun 50 metrin päästä... Loppuun vielä IG-komentaja, joka röpöttää Sielejä ihan urakalla. (Kuka tahansa joka "perinpohjin hävittää" Albiinojen iskujoukon on kova jätkä.) Codexiin tulee nimittäin pari, kolme komentajaa muille armeijoille, joita nämä voivat käyttää Sielejä vastaan.


COLONEL MARREL

“They say these creatures fear me. I don’t want that. I want these creatures to die. Let them defile their own galaxy, this is ours. This is the Galaxy of Man, and it is our destiny to purge them from our stars.”
-Colonel Marrel, after the successful recapture of the Brown SieL-held Hive World of Kaleth-II.

Colonel Hieronymus Marrel was already known for his fanatical devotion to Imperial cause and immense hatred of aliens when he was called to lead the regiments of the Imperial Guard to accompany the Adeptus Astartes forces in the Aurelius Crusade. Marrel had never fought Siels before, but once the fighting began in the earnest, he quickly adapted to their technological superiority, using his skills as a masterful tactician to outwit and outgun the Grey and Black SieL time and again. By the time a Black Templars force was supposed to clear a strategically important space port, Marrel and his men had rampaged through the area, leaving behind piles of SieL corpses, and blackened wrecks of their vehicles. Never despairing or even considering defeat, Marrel continued to wreak havoc like a whirlwind through the lines of the aliens.

After the victorious Crusade, he continued fighting the SieL wherever the new alien threat was encountered. After not only defeating, but comprehensively devastating an Albino SieL raid on Forge World Halukith, he fought a series of bloody campaigns against the Black SieL, and then moved on lead a campaign against the Brown SieL near Tau space.

With the number of atrocities committed by SieL forces against Imperial citizens growing, Marrel’s unquenchable thirst for the total purging of the aliens from this galaxy grows even stronger. Whenever there is a campaign being fought against the SieL, he always makes an effort to attend. While an inspiring and steadfast presence to his men, he is a merciless Angel of Death to the SieL; a bringer of doom and destruction.

An Imperial Guard army of at least 1,500 points may be led by Marrel. If you take him, he counts as one of the HQ choices for the army. He must be used exactly as detailed here, and may not be given additional equipment.

Wargear: Artificer-crafted particle carbine, bolt pistol, power weapon, Medallion Crimson, Macharian Cross, carapace armour, refractor field

SPECIAL RULES

Fearless, Independent Character

Artificer-crafted particle carbine: Marrel took this weapon from a Grey SieL commander during the Aurelius Crusade. Although members of the Inquisition frown upon him using an enemy weapon, Marrel insists that using the enemy’s own equipment against them holds a delicious irony and morale-boosting effect. The particle carbine counts as being master-crafted.

SieL-Fighters: Marrel regularly leads forces who’ve fought Siels before, and who have correspondent experience on defeating them. Any Imperial Guard army lead by Marrel gains the Preferred Enemy: SieL –special rule.

Bring it Down!: Marrel’s troops are especially adept at shooting down speeding SieL skimmers, and have learned to target even fast-moving targets accurately. Any Anti-tank squad or vehicle in an army lead by Marrel may be given the Bring it Down! –ability at the cost of +20 points. If a vehicle or a squad with this ability scores a penetrating hit on a SieL skimmer, that would be reduced to a glancing hit due to the skimmer moving at least 6” during its last turn, it remains a penetrating hit on a roll of 4+. NOTE: This ability only affects penetrating hits scored on fast-moving skimmers, not ones protected by the Distortion field –upgrade.

No, Sielit ovat alunperin lähtöisin yläaste-aikaisesta roolipelistä, joka ei koskaan oikein edennyt kunnon toteutumisasteelle. Sitten reinkarnoituivat scifi-henkisessä ropessa, jota peluutinkin toisinaan.
Lopulta muunsin ne 40K-universumiin, joskin jouduin kehittämään uusia yksiköitä runsaasti, mm. Puppeteerin, tankit, Tempest Warriorit, ja Firewolfit.

Spessucharruja ei ole tullut lisää, olen laiska. Ja lisäksi on se yliopisto.
Sen sijaan jo valmiiksi (ajat sitten) kirjoitetuista napataan nyt Scavenger Team. Ja bonusyllärinä pari superheavya.

ELITE

Scavenger Team (G,BL)

Most Siels don’t loot enemy equipment for their own reasons. The Brown SieL are bound by their rigid doctrine, which enforces the use of their own hardware, and not that of the enemy. The Albino SieL won’t use the “inferior” equipment of other races. They’d be more than willing to use Eldar or Necron weapons, but lacking any psychic powers, cannot use or replicate captured Eldar equipment, and defeated Necrons simply Phase Out with their weaponry. The Red SieL fight a swift-striking hit and run –style warfare, and never linger in one area long enough to gather substantial numbers of enemy equipment, apart from individual trophies.
The Grey and Black SieL, however, are more than happy to use a good piece of equipment when they recognise one, be it from friend or foe. While many of their soldiers have a penchant for walking (or driving) away with captured enemy hardware, the ones who have the training or the experience to maintain the captured equipment are organised into dedicated Scavenger Teams. These pillagers descend on the battlefield after a victory, or if at least an opportunity presents itself, and depart with all salvageable Imperial and Tau hardware they deem useful.

Wargear: Ion rifle

Weapon options: Members of the Scavenger Team may replace their ion rifles with hellguns for no points cost. They may alternatively upgrade their weapons to Imperial boltguns at +2 points per model, Tau pulse rifles at +4 points per model, or SieL particle carbines at +6 points per model. One member of the team may replace his ion rifle with one of the following SieL weapons: a fusion rifle at +7 points, a fusion melta at +10 points or a plasma rifle at +10 points. Two members of the team may man a heavy weapon from the following list: lascannon at +20 points, plasma cannon at +25 points or an assault cannon at +30 points.

Equipment options: Members of the Team may upgrade their armour saves to 4+ at +5 points per model. Members of the team may have particle grenades at +3 points per model, Tau EMP grenades at +4 points per model, Imperial melta bombs at +5 points per model, or Shredder grenades at +6 points per model. The team leader may have a Tau markerlight at +10 points. NOTE: The markerlight may only be used by Scavenger Team(s) with Tau weapons, and captured Tau vehicles, if any.

Transport: A Scavenger Team numbering 10 or less may be mounted in a Sundog at +85 points. A Team numbering 5 or 6 may be mounted in a Coneshell.

Captured vehicle: The army must have one Scavenger Team for each captured vehicle it uses. For example, a SieL army using a captured Land Raider and a Tau Hammerhead must have two Scavenger Teams occupying two Elite slots on the force organization chart. Each captured vehicle occupies a Heavy Support slot of its own. See the Captured vehicle entry below for details.

***Tähän liittyen:***

HEAVY SUPPORT

Captured vehicle (G,BL)

In addition to infantry weaponry, Scavenger Teams are ever so eager to use vehicles captured from the Imperial Guard, Adeptus Astartes, or the Tau Empire. In addition to filling a tactical niche, they possess a certain demoralising effect on enemy troopers, who don’t expect to come under attack by vehicles once used by their own armies. Numerous different enemy vehicles are used in different roles by the Grey and Black SieL, but for reasons of simplicity, only the most common are included here.

Options: The SieL player may select any number of vehicles from the list below, and vehicles of different powers may be used. Each vehicle must have a correspondent Scavenger Team occupying an Elite slot on the force organization chart, and each vehicle also occupies a Heavy Support slot of its own. The points costs and weaponry options for each vehicle are listed in the Codex: Imperial Guard, Codex: Space Marines, and Codex: Tau Empire. The only equipment upgrades allowed are those detailed in this codex.

The Basilisk may be given Indirect fire.
The Land Raider may be used as a transport by any infantry unit that could normally be mounted in a Sundog, carrying up to 15 members of infantry.

Imperial Guard: Basilisk, Leman Russ Demolisher, Hellhound

Adeptus Astartes: Predator Annihilator, Whirlwind, Land Raider

Tau Empire: Hammerhead, Skyray

SUPERHEAVYT

STORM DRAGON

There are situations when the elimination of enemy armour cannot be relied on Rampage Huntsmen and Desecrators alone. Perhaps the enemy is fielding a multitude of tanks, or simply the range of the standard Desecrator gun is insufficient to effectively engage enemy armour.
Whatever the situation, it may see the deployment of the immense Storm Dragon. This enormous vehicle is the SieL species’ ultimate tank-killer, a behemoth against which there is little defence. A single Storm Dragon can take on entire Armoured Companies and super-heavy tanks, and triumph. Used sparingly by all SieL races, the appearance of one on the battlefield is a sight dreaded by any enemy fielding armoured vehicles or large organisms.

SPECIAL RULES

Heavy Desecrator gun

Range: 72” Strength: 10 AP: 1 Special: Ordnance

Advanced Twilight Shield: Every Storm Dragon is protected with this much more powerful version of the standard Twilight Shield. Enemy units that roll for armour penetration against the Storm Dragon roll two dice, and use the lower score to determine penetration. Attacks that normally roll two dice for armour penetration, such as melta weapons at half range, and Monstrous Creatures, roll two dice, and use the lower score as well.

Hoverer: Hovering just above ground, Storm Dragon may ignore Difficult and Dangerous Terrain.


MAELSTROM

When all other options are out, the Maelstrom is deployed. Mounting no other armament than the massive Heavy An-Mat Gun, it can annihilate infantry, vehicles, large organisms, and war machines with a single blast. Firing a concentrated, minuscule amount of pure anti-matter, the Maelstrom is the heaviest tank in the arsenal of all SieL. Rare even in the Siels’ own galaxy, in ours they are precious commodities, deployed only at the direst of circumstances. And time and again, they have turned the tide of battle from the brink of defeat to crushing victory.
While their armament is tremendous in power, Maelstroms need infantry and lighter tanks to accompany them in battle, as they do not have any self-defensive weaponry. This is because the Maelstrom’s sole purpose is to hunt down and destroy enemy war machines, and if any aren’t found, concentrations of smaller targets.

Options: None.

SPECIAL RULES

Heavy An-Mat Gun

Range: G48” Strength: X AP: 2 Special: Ordnance 1, Massive Blast, Titan-Killer, Gets Real Hot!

Heavy An-Mat Gun: Every model partially or completely under the template takes a wound on a roll of 2+. Multi-wound models that are wounded die outright on a roll of 4+, regardless of remaining wounds. Against targets with an armour value, the Heavy An-Mat Gun always inflicts a glancing hit on a roll of 3-4, and a penetrating hit on a roll of 5-6. Penetrating hits inflicted by this weapon cannot be downgraded into glancing hits by skimmers moving fast, or special equipment such as smoke launchers. Vehicles that are Obscured may still downgrade penetrating hits to glancing hits, however.

Massive Blast: Heavy An-Mat Gun uses its own 7” blast template that you have to make yourself.

Titan-Killer: Due to its size, the Heavy An-Mat Gun inflicts 1D3 Structure points damage on a target with structure points.

Gets Real Hot!: The Heavy An-Mat Gun is just as unpredictable and unstable as its smaller versions. When firing the Heavy An-Mat Gun, the Maelstorm suffers a single glancing hit on a roll of 1.

Advanced Twilight Shield: Like the Storm Dragon, Maelstrom is protected by the Advanced Twilight Shield. Enemy units that roll for armour penetration against the Maelstrom roll two dice, and use the lower score to determine penetration. Attacks that normally roll two dice for armour penetration, such as melta weapons at half range, and Monstrous Creatures, roll two dice, and use the lower score as well.

Hoverer: Hovering just above ground, Maelstrom may ignore Difficult and Dangerous Terrain.

No niin. Threadi lähes vuoden vanha, mutta koska en todellakaan ole haudannut tätä projektia, olisi idioottimaista aloittaa uusi ja selittää sama skeida uudelleen ja uudelleen. Jatkamme, saamme elää. Toivottavasti.

Kuulumisia: Olen codexin virittelyä lykännyt kunnes palkkamaalarini saa jotain aikaiseksi... hetkonen, pitääpä muuten hoputtaa! Ellei sitten joku muu(kin) tarjoudu (huikean suurta) palkkiota vastaan piirtelemään... Ja kunnes ostan 5. edikan. Mikä tapahtuu pian. Noi edellisen viestin super-heavyt muuten on menny täysin uudelleenmietintään, unohtakaa ne. Toistaiseksi.
Niin! Koska 5. edikka toi mukanaan kaikenlaista kivaa, mm. lähestulkoon tuhoutumattomat skimmerit, ajoneuvoille vaarallisemman jalkaväen, ja consolidaten poistumisen näyttämöltä, on pistehinnoissa ja statseissa rukkaamista. Fluffissa otan huomioon tuon Time of Endingin, eli päin helvettiä ei mene pelkästään Imperiumilla, vaan myös osalla omista veijareistani.
Mitäs siis arvon SieLeille kuuluu 5. edikassa?
Harmaiden Linnunrataan perustama valtakunta natisee liitoksissaan. Tyranideja tulee niin perkeleesti, Necronit ovat alkaneet hyökkäillä, ja kapinoita on koko ajan. Imperiumin kanssa tapellaan koko ajan, ja aina ei laatu korvaa määrää ihmisten höyrytankkeja ja taskulamppuja vastaan tapellessa.
Mustat rymistelevät Imperiumiin oikein urakalla, mutta klaanien väliset loputtomat sodat murentavat yhtenäisyyttä. Lisäksi Harmaita piinaavat tyranidit lätkivät myös näitä oikein mielellään, örkit tulevat Waaaagh!eineen jatkuvasti, ja Kaaos käärii hihojaan, kiitos Murosak Ashuntirilin tihutöiden (tyypin elämäntehtävä on terrorisoida Black Legionia).
Ruskeat linnoittavat jo valtaamiaan maailmoja lähellä Tau-avaruutta, ja valmistautuvat uuteen rynnäkköön Tau:ta vastaan. Imperiumin suhteen tyytyvät lähinnä odottelemaan mitä karvattomat simpanssit tekevät. Mikäs tässä muurien takana odotellessa... Barguzk 'Orniestompa on tietysti aina johdattamassa muita ruohonaamoja Ruskeita vastaan, ja tyrkkyjä tulee lisää Taun suunnalta... Nyt pitäisi edetä eikä nynniä, mutta Ruskeat tyytyvät lähinnä odottelemaan mitä tuleman pitää.
Albiinoilla menee hyvin-- no, hyvin ja hyvin. Sota Eldareita vastaan neitomaailma Lir-Iolarissa sujuu hyvin, Biel-Tanin vetäytyessä hiljalleen, ja hyökkäys örkkien Naireet-mini imperiumiin on jo loppusuoralla, kun useita maailmoja on säteilytetty, viruspommitettu, ja muillakin keinoin putsattu örkkien itiöistä. Huom: kyseessä ei siis ole Exterminatukset, vaan tieteellisin keinoin suoritettu örkki-itiöiden putsaus. Rajakahakat Taun kanssa jatkuvat, mutta enimmäkseen kalanaamat ovat häviäjien puolella. Imperiumi vaan otti ja meni julistamaan Ontarius Crusaden, ja ihmisten kanssa tappeleminen vie joukkoja, joita tarvittaisiin parin tyrkkyjen splinter fleetin ja parin örkkien mini-imperiumin kurmoottamiseen. Laajemmalla tasolla Albiinot ovat tajunneet että nyt Linnunradan galaksi menee päin helvettiä ja nopeaan: jotain on siis tehtävä. Järkevintä onkin vallata elintilaa, resursseja, ja ennenkaikkea AIKAA, kunnes Poikkeaman (Anomaly) toimintaa ymmärretään paremmin, ja joukot ja siviilit kalustoineen voidaan evakuoida takaisin kotigalaksiin, pois Kaaoksen, tyrkkyjen ja Necronien valtakauden tieltä.
Punaiset ovat epätoivoisempia kuin koskaan. Lisääntyminen pysyy hädintuskin tappioiden tasolla, ja Linnunradan galaksi on pian mennyttä. Nyt on päästävä takaisin kotiin, mutta miten? Teknologiaa siihen ei ole, ja Albiinojen kanssa liittoutuminen ei tule kuuloonkaan. Ei auta kuin sinnitellä ja toivoa parasta...

Mitä muuta siis odottaa? Aiemmat ominaisuudet codexiin tulee, lisäksi esim. Albiinoille lisää varusteita ja optioita yksittäisille squadeilla ja platooneille. Stellaareille lisää optioita, ja kenties pari öttiäistä lisää.

Laittakaas lista pdf-muotoon jonnekin jakoon. Nykyisen 'hyväksytyn' muodon lukeminen on himan *köh* hankalaa.

[Darkmage7280]

PDF tulee ihan viikon, parin kuluessa, kunhan palailen omalle asunnolle ja saan nettiyhteyden taas toimimaan.

Advanced Twilight Shield: Every Storm Dragon is protected with this much more powerful version of the standard Twilight Shield. Enemy units that roll for armour penetration against the Storm Dragon roll two dice, and use the lower score to determine penetration. Attacks that normally roll two dice for armour penetration, such as melta weapons at half range, and Monstrous Creatures, roll two dice, and use the lower score as well.

Muuten ihan jees, mutta vähän turhan rankka meltoja ja muita 2D6 vehkeitä vastaan. Jos nämä 2D6 vehkeet heittäisivät vain yhden nopan ja käyttäisivät sitä?

[Darkmage7280]

Hmmmm, miksei. Ajattelin kyllä pistehinnassa heijastella tuota alemman nopan penetraatiota, mutta kyllähän tuokin toimisi.
Ja nuo superheavyt siis ovat rukkauksen alla, niihin tulee muutoksia, kiitos 5. edikan.

Fluffissa otan huomioon tuon Time of Endingin...

Hö :( Älä vaan sano, että olet itsekkin lähtemässä tähän ihme "tulta&tulikiveä"-hössötykseen mukaan...

Eivaa, onnea projektin jatkumiselle.

Kaaos, necronit, tyrkyt ja örkit tulevat. Ihmiskunta ajautuu ikuiseen kärsimykseen, pimeyteen, jota valaisevat vain loputtoman tuskan liekit. Kaikki kuolevat, aivan kaikki, ja tuskallisesti. Ensin syödään naminami kehitysvammaiset, odottavat äidit, lapset ja vanhukset, kaikkisyödäänjakaikkipoltetaanjasittenvastaaletaanoikeinilkeäksi kun...

*Kuola valuu GW:n fluffin kirjoittajan suupielestä*

Ei.
En lähde k.o "päin helvettiä" -pelleilylinjalle. Mitä hiton motivaatiota olisi taistella ihmiskunnan puolesta jos se kerran joka tapauksessa tuhoutuu eikä asialle mahda mitään? Eijeijei. Omana lähtökohtanani, tiedä häntä onko 100% GW:n linja, on että galaksi on suurten muutosten edessä, ja tämänhetkinen status quo ei voi enää pitkään kestää. Sielit ovat tämän myös, enemmän tai vähemmän, hoksanneet, ja toimivat sen mukaan. Kuka valtaa alaa, kuka vikisee pelosta, kuka pyrkii takaisin kotiin. Muut rodut ovat tajunneet että hittolainen, tuollaisia häiriköitä tunkee Halo Starsien ja Ghoul Starsien luota meidän porstualle. Kuherruskuukausi on päättynyt ja nyt tapellaan ihan urakalla. Kuka haluaa Sielit tappaa (örkit, ihmiset), kuka orjuuttaa (DE, Kaaos), kuka syödä (tyrkyt), kuka helvettiin meidän pihamaalta (Eldarit), kuka halia (Tau). Jokaisella rodulla on nyt selkeä agendansa.

Ja lisäsääntöjäkin tulee, ja yksiköitä viilaan. Captured Vehicle on kaapattu ajoneuvo, eikä mikään &%¤:n nerffattu örkkivehje! Aivan niinkuin aikoinaan saksalaisilta kaapattuja Panthereita annettiin kunnostautuneille neukkutankkien miehistöille, myös kaapattuja Hammerheadeja annetaan "palkintoina" ansiokkaille Harmaiden panssarimiehille. Ja Mustien klaanipäälliköistähän on tietty hemmetin cool juttu ajella raitilla jollain Land Raiderilla...
Mustista puheenollen, taas esimerkki uudesta erikoissäännöstä, nimeltään "Whoops!". Koska Black Sielit eivät tunnetusti kauhean tarkkoja ole ajoneuvojen huollossa ("Kietaise siihen maalarinteippiä"), joka kiekalla nakataan 1D6 per ajoneuvo, ja 6:lla tulee glänäri. Nyt kun glänärit eivät enää tuhoa ajoneuvoja, ei tuo ole niin kauhean julma. Ja rohkaisee ottamaan sitä jalkaväkeä, joka on Black Sielien armeijoiden sielu, selkäranka ja ratkaiseva tekijä.

[Darkmage7280]

Mitä hemmettiä? Codexhan alkaa olla loppusuoralla, pikkuhiljaa! Hoo! Seuraavana odotellaan sitten G&R:sin Chinese Democracyn ilmestymistä.

Hehheh, yeah, right.
No niin.

Kuten ehkä muistatte, codexiin tulee myös hahmoja muiden rotujen käytettäväksi. Tällä kertaa on vuorossa Eldarien Ji Con Eth, Stellaarienmetsästäjä. Ei liene vaikea arvata että legendaarinen suurriistanmetsästäjä Jim Corbett on toiminut inspiraationa. Kommentteja ja parannusehdotuksia odottelen, sillä en todellakaan ole Eldar-expertti.

Ji Con Eth,
The Alaitoc Stellar SieL hunter

Many an Exodite world of the Eldar is plagued by native beasts of many kind. Eldar Rangers must be constantly aware of them, lest they turn prey to the hunters lurking in the wilderness. Yet the fear inspired by native life forms is nothing compared to the dread birthed by the presence of Stellar Siels. Spread constantly by more advanced SieL races, the Stellars are a growing threat to all inhabitants of the galaxy. Often when a planet is cleared of Stellar SieL nests, individual stragglers remain. In addition, Myrmidons, Drones and Warriors are occasionally, for varying reasons, driven from their communities and forced to go rogue, traversing the wilderness in search of prey. Many an Eldar has been taken in the darkness of the night, or even in the light of day, by such beasts, with nothing left behind but foreboding pools of blood next to unfired weapons. Such enemies require a special breed of warriors to hunt them down. One such hunter is the master Ranger Ji Con Eth.
Among the Rangers of the craftworld Alaitoc, he is a legend. A dedicated and courageous hunter, he has saved countless Eldar lives from rogue Stellars that would have devoured them. Among his feats are the killings of the Myrmidon of Lammas with 31 Eldar victims, the Warrior and Worker of Lir-Iolar equator, number of victims unknown, the two Drones of Mirus Prime with 19 Eldar victims, and the infamous Myrmidon of Alúsar, with 77 Eldar victims. Always up for a hunt and never ending the hunt until his prey lies dead, he is a true hero, embodying the courageous fighting spirit characteristic to the entire Eldar race.

SPECIAL RULES

Independent character

Fleet of foot

Fearless: Having stalked and killed Stellar Siels of all kind, Ji’s nerves have been tested to such extent that he fears nothing any more. He is Fearless.

Acute Senses: Many a night spent in ambush under moonlit skies have honed Ji’s senses keen and sharp. He has Acute Senses.

Master of Stealth: Ji is a masterful stalker, able to move through the foliage as easily as walking on an empty field. He often creeps within few feet of his prey to squeeze off the fatal shot, using the surrounding terrain to mask his movements. He can ignore difficult terrain, and has the Infiltrate and Scout abilities. Any cover save used by him is improved by +2.

Modified Long Rifle: The hunting rifle used by Ji is a highly modified Ranger Long Rifle, lighter and more stabile to use, and which fires destructive carrier shurikens: shuriken-shaped capsules that release a swirling torrent of small projectiles into the target’s flesh, destroying tissue and bone alike. The Rifle wounds on a roll of 3+, regardless of target’s Toughness. Also, on multi-wound models, any wound caused by the Long Rifle causes an additional wound. Any shooting roll to hit of 4+ by Ji counts as AP1.

Eikös jonkin verran pitäisi maksaa tuon enemmän. Aika kova tyyppi jolla on aina koverissa 2+, infiltrate,scout ja ap 1 iskun +4 tekevä snipu. Hieman lisää pisteitä.
