  1. I actually called this one. Well kinda i thought it would be a heavy armor one that also hit terminators. At least now I can play with my dreads that have sat on the shelf gathering dust.

  2. I think GW got the order of operations wrong. They’ve been moving away from FW and hopefully Custodes are going to be a part of that move very soon but as a parting gift they’re trying to force us to buy a crapton of overpriced resin. They need to make the tools available in plastic, then make the detachment to use them

  3. Sneaky allarus captain that’s on his own to do behind enemy lines, engage, containment and whatever else needed in enemy DZ, easy to bring in as 1 model from deepstrike

    Put the fnp enhancement on him…

    He’s t7 2+ 4++ 5+++ with the ability to change damage incoming to 1… so it goes to 1 then you fnp it away…. 8 failed saves on average to kill is incredibly tanky

  4. So there’s some glaring things here that warden bricks are just that good you still want 2 bricks to control primary scoring…

    And 2 tanks for great AT properties and long range support

    And 3 units of sisters to do scoring…

    So that leaves a little bit of wiggle room to fit in some dreads…

    So given that 4 dreads 2 spear 2 shield.

    1 shield takes the reroll 1s, 1 spear takes damage and strength buff, now you wound a t12 on 2s and have d6+2 damage with 6 attacks so kind of a beast and mw on the charge is nice.

    So yeah spear dreads move up slam into the enemy army while you have the shield dreads and wardens to control the midboard

    I think it’s balanced it’a at minimum very usable, but I don’t think it’s better than talons and shield host.

  5. Great translation of the detachment as always, thank you! Thought on the detachment: I’d rather the detachment rules were data sheet adjustments, as the models themselves should have had better abilities rather than just “Crusher Stampede in gold.”

  6. One detail, however: Unstoppable only works at the BEGINNING of your MOVEMENT phase, emphasis by me. You have to declare it before moving anything and rolling any dice to advance, and you cannot use it during the charge phase.
    Meaning that it is significantly worse than usual way in which this rule appears, but given that it is for Custodes, the full rule would be probably way too strong.
