70 Points:

Master of Deceit: After both players have deployed their armies, if your army includes one or more models with this ability, you can select up to three friendly ADEPTUS ASTARTES INFANTRY units and redeploy all of those units. When doing so, any of those units can be placed into Strategic Reserves, regardless of how many units are already in Strategic Reserves.

Stealth: If every model in a unit has this ability, then each time a ranged attack is made against it, subtract 1 from that attack's Hit roll.

Infiltrators: After determining which player has the initiative, units where all models have this ability may be set aside before deployment. After all other units are deployed, units where all models have this ability may be deployed anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 9" horizontally away from the enemy deployment zone and all enemy models. Players alternate in placing Scout units, starting with the player that has the initiative.

CT: STEALTHY: - Whenever this unit is shot at by enemy operatives, if you can retain any cover saves, you can retain one additional cover save, or you can retain one cover save as a critical success. This is not cumulative with improved cover saves from Vantage terrain.

Teleport Homer: At the start of the battle, you can set up one Teleport Homer token for this unit anywhere on the battlefield that is not in your opponent’s deployment zone. If you do, once per battle, during either player's activation but before, you can Deep Strike this unit onto the Teleport Homer Token. You must set this unit up within 3" of that token and not within 9" of any enemy models. That token is then removed.

Fury of the First: At the beginning of this unit's activation, select one enemy unit on the battlefield. Each time a model in this unit makes an attack that targets that enemy unit, add 1 to the Hit roll.

INFANTRY, IMPERIUM, TERMINATOR, TERMINATOR SQUAD, ANGEL OF DEATH, ADEPTUS ASTARTES

Equipment

Chapter Reliquaries

You can use the Wrath of Vengeance firefight ploy for 0CP if the specified friendly unit has an Engage order.

Mines

Before the battle, you can set up one of your Mines markers wholly within your deployment zone and more than 2" from other markers, access points, and Accessible terrain. The first time that marker is within a unit's control range, remove that marker and inflict D3+3 damage on that unit.

Razor Wire

Razor wire is Exposed and Obstructing terrain. Before the battle, you can set it up wholly within your deployment zone, on the killzone floor and more than 2" from other equipment terrain features, access points, and Accessible terrain.

Obstructing: Whenever a unit would cross over this terrain feature within 1" of it, treat the distance as an additional 1".

Purity Seals

Once per Battle Round, when a friendly ANGEL OF DEATH or PHOBOS STRIKE TEAM unit is shooting, fighting, or retaliating, if you roll two or more fails, you can discard one of them to retain another as a normal success instead.

Comms Device

Before the battle, you can set up one of your Comms Device markers wholly within your deployment zone. While a friendly unit controls this marker, add 3" to the distance requirements of its SUPPORT rules that refer to friendly units (e.g. ‘select one friendly unit within 6"’ would be 9" instead). Note that you cannot benefit from your opponent's Comms Device markers.

Tilting Shields

Once per Battle Round, when a friendly ANGEL OF DEATH or PHOBOS STRIKE TEAM unit is fighting or retaliating, after your opponent rolls their attack dice, but before re-rolls, you can use this rule. If you do, your opponent cannot retain attack dice results of less than 6 as critical successes during that sequence (e.g. as a result of the Lethal, Rending or Severe weapon rules).

Auspex

Once per Battle Round, when a friendly ANGEL OF DEATH or PHOBOS STRIKE TEAM unit performs the Shoot action and you’re selecting a valid target, you can use this rule. If you do, until the end of the activation (or counteraction), enemy units within 8" of it cannot be obscured.

Ammo Cache

Before the battle, you can set up one of your Ammo Cache markers wholly within your deployment zone. Friendly units can perform the following mission action during the battle: AMMO RESUPPLY (0 AP): One of your Ammo Cache markers the active unit controls is used during this turning point.

Until the start of the next turning point, whenever this operative is shooting with a weapon from its datacard, you can re-roll one of your attack dice.

A unit cannot perform this action while within control range of enemy models, if that marker is not yours, or if that marker has been used this turning point.

Ploys

Adjust Doctrine
Firefight Ploy

Use this firefight ploy during a friendly ANGEL OF DEATH unit's activation, before or after it performs an action. If you have used the Combat Doctrine strategy ploy during this Battle Round, change the COMBAT DOCTRINE you selected.

Shock Assault
Firefight Ploy

Use this firefight ploy when a friendly ANGEL OF DEATH unit is performing the Fight action during an activation in which it has performed the Charge action, at the start of the Resolve Attack Dice step. Until the end of that action:

  • Its melee weapons have the Shock weapon rule.
  • The first time you strike during that sequence, inflict 1 additional damage (to a maximum of 7).

Shock: The first time you strike with a critical success in each sequence, also discard one of your opponent's unresolved normal successes (or a critical success if there are none).

Transhuman Physiology
Firefight Ploy

Use this firefight ploy when an enemy unit is shooting a friendly ANGEL OF DEATH or PHOBOS STRIKE TEAM unit, in the Roll Defence Dice step. You can retain one of your normal successes as a critical success instead.

Wrath of Vengeance
Firefight Ploy

Use this firefight ploy when a friendly ANGEL OF DEATH unit is counteracting. It can perform an additional 1AP action for free during that counteraction, but both actions must be different.

Critical Shot
Firefight Ploy

Use this firefight ploy when you resolve a critical success for a friendly PHOBOS STRIKE TEAM unit that is shooting with a bolt weapon. Inflict D3 additional damage.

This ploy must be declared before rolling attack dice for shooting attacks.

Stealth Assault
Firefight Ploy

Use this firefight ploy when a friendly PHOBOS STRIKE TEAM unit that has a Conceal order is activated, is given an Engage order, performs the Charge and then the Fight action, and you’re resolving your first attack dice from this activation. After doing so, you can immediately resolve another of your attack dice (before your opponent). The unit cannot have performed any other actions during this activation (but can do so after resolving this ploy).

Astartes Training
Firefight Ploy

Use this firefight ploy during a friendly SCOUT SQUAD unit’s activation. Until the end of that activation, that unit can do one of the following:

  • Perform two Fight actions.
  • Perform two Shoot actions if an Astartes shotgun, bolt pistol or boltgun is selected for at least one of them.
  • Perform two Shoot actions with a heavy bolter, missile launcher or sniper rifle, but 1 additional AP must be spent for the second action.
Covert Position
Firefight Ploy

Use this firefight ploy during a friendly SCOUT SQUAD unit's activation. Until the start of its next activation, while that unit has a Conceal order and is in cover, it cannot be selected as a valid target, taking precedence over all other rules (e.g. Seek, Vantage terrain) except being within 2".

Emboldened Aspirant
Firefight Ploy

Use this firefight ploy when a friendly SCOUT SQUAD unit performs the Fight or Shoot action. If it is the first friendly unit to perform either of those actions during this Battle Round, or if the enemy unit in that action (Primary target, if relevant) has a higher Wounds stat than that friendly Scout Squad unit, you can retain one of your normal successes as a critical success instead.

Raw Physiology
Firefight Ploy

Use this firefight ploy during a friendly SCOUT SQUAD unit's activation. Until the start of its next activation, add 1" to its Move stat and you can ignore any changes to that unit's stats from being injured (including its weapons' stats).

Adaptive Tactics
Strategy Ploy

Change your secondary CHAPTER TACTIC. Note this ploy only lasts until the end of the Battle Round, at which point your original secondary CHAPTER TACTIC returns.

And They Shall Know No Fear
Strategy Ploy

You can ignore any changes to the stats of friendly ANGEL OF DEATH and PHOBOS STRIKE TEAM units from being injured.

Combat Doctrine
Strategy Ploy

Select one COMBAT DOCTRINE from those presented below. Whenever a friendly ANGEL OF DEATH unit is (X), its weapons have the Balanced weapon rule. (X) is the COMBAT DOCTRINE you selected.

  • Devastator Doctrine: Shooting a unit more than 6" from it.
  • Tactical Doctrine: Shooting a unit within 6" of it.
  • Assault Doctrine: Fighting or retaliating.

Balanced: Can re-roll one Attack die for each model that made attacks.

Indomitus
Strategy Ploy

Whenever an enemy unit is shooting a friendly ANGEL OF DEATH unit, if you roll two or more failed defense rolls, you can discard one of them to retain another as a normal success instead.

Deadly Shots
Strategy Ploy
