About this deal

There are a couple of units which sound hilarious on paper but are tragically ineffective on the table A Commissar's uncompromising code of law ensures discipline. As such, regiments to which a Commissar is assigned become far more robust and coherent formations. When soldiers falter, a Commissar ensures they do not flee. Where they are weak, a Commissar renews their strength. Selection Days in the Schola Progenium mark the point at which a cadet is assigned their destiny. Cavernous voidships descend into planetary orbit, ready to export progena to their new roles. From dawn to dusk, amidst the slow incantation of ancient litanies and clouds of incense, cadets are divided according to their selected path.

Military exercises with live ammunition are conducted in the harsh landscape surrounding a Schola Progenium or on nearby moons. Cadets are often expected to endure solar days in the wilderness with little food or instruction, and limited weaponry with which to combat whatever violent fauna roams the planet. Contents: 1 Primaris Battle Leader (HQ), 10 Intercessors (Troops), 3 Aggressors (Elites), 1 Space Wolves Primaris upgrade sprue Even a few squads of Tempestus Scions, precisely deployed, can change the course of a war before many regular regiments have even tied their bootlaces. From standing firm against ravenous Tyranid swarms to striking fast against the undying horrors of a rising Necron Tomb World, Tempestus Scions are unyielding in the prosecution of their goals. Groups of soldiers under a Commissar's command can take any size and hail from disparate regiments from across the galaxy. Such units will have more or less respect for Imperial authority depending on their origins and the discipline of their commanding officers. These elite warriors may hurl themselves from the ramps of low-flying Valkyries, plunging through smoke-filled skies with Grav-Chutes, or they might infiltrate behind enemy lines to neutralize the foe's reinforcements before the threat is fully realised. Riding aboard Taurox Primes, Tempestus Scions are able to strike into the most inhospitable of war zones.

Majority Ballistic Skill of 4+ to hit means you suddenly get very inaccurate if your enemy inflicts hit penalties on you Contents: 1 Painboy (Elites), 11 Ork Boyz (Troops), 5 Nobz and ammo runt (Elites), 1 Deff Dread (Heavy Support) A: Unlike most armies, the Imperial Guard have multiple kits for the same unit. This is because different regiments have different uniforms. You’ll see some in the photos in this article. They all work mostly the same in-game, so this is largely an aesthetic choice on the part of the player (competitive gamers are screaming at me right now, since the different regimental doctrines do genuinely make a difference, but big picture: they’re still cheap infantry who die a lot). Because of the way the regimental doctrines rules work, most people will build their whole army (or at least whole detachments) to look like it’s all from the same regiment. Cadian and Catachan soldiers are available in plastic, which makes them the default choices. The only other regiment currently available from GW are the Steel Legion, and even then, only the basic troops are available – and in metal, no less. Old school. These noble scions may include those left behind by a Planetary Governor whose term is brought short by some cruel xenos incursion, or even the sons of a high-ranking Imperial commander who has gloriously sacrificed his life for the good of the Imperium.

As a Starting Thousand Sons player, you want all of these models in your army, and the savings on this box are pretty great. One of these is a fantastic near must-buy for someone who wants to start their own Thousand sons army. The big downside is that because Ahriman is a named character, you don’t really want more than one of these. Though the box savings more than offset Ahriman’s cost, and if you can convert your second copy of him into a regular sorcerer, it’s worth it to buy two so you can make a battalion, and of course there’s the fringe use of having one version of him on foot and another on the disk. The fastest way to ensure you get what you want is to return the item you have, and once the return is accepted,a replacement will be sent to you. The finest human soldiers in the universe make up the Ordo Tempestus. Not only are their soldiers elite fighters, but the Commissars can stir up morale anywhere. Now you can command this brutal army in your games of Warhammer 40,000! This starter set includes everything you need to start a Militarum Tempestus army in 40k. Set contains an Officio Prefectus Commissar, a Taurus Prime and ten Scions of the Ordo Tempestus. The Scions are assemblable as a 5-man Squad and a 5-man Scion Command Squad. When this iron determination and tactical autonomy are wedded to the Tempestus Scions' specialist abilities and lauded martial discipline, the resultant formations are dependable beyond all reasonable expectation. Having trained and developed in the same environment, each is aware of the other's strengths and will instinctively respond the same way in a firefight.Theirs is the right to change the course of history, to send entire battlegroups of the Astra Militarum and Chapters of the Adeptus Astartes into the fires of war, and even to consign fully populated planets to oblivion should they deem it necessary. The Antinomican (975.M41) - Guided by a squad of Sanctioned Psykers, the Tempestus Scions of the 7 th Epsiloid Hawks are deployed to hunt down and destroy a rogue psyker acting as a beacon for daemonic forces upon the megaship Amphinyx. Tempestus Scions that have been elevated to the rank of Tempestor Prime may be rewarded with a regimental greatcoat, an item usually associated with Commissars, as an indicator of their shared heritage and the position of command.

The Schola Progenium takes a constant influx of war orphans from the embattled worlds of the Imperium of Man. These young individuals are officially known as Progena Novum. Mindscaped, schooled and trained to an almost inhuman degree, those who pass their Trials of Compliance and make it past Selection Day are then split off to serve in the different organs of the Imperial hierarchy. When they are dropped into a war zone, these warriors take to war with equipment every bit as specialised as they are. Garbed in baroque Carapace Armour with moulded plates of armaplas and ceramite that almost entirely cover them, Scions are better able to endure the rigours of battle. Miniatures: 10 Battle Sisters, 4 Sisters Repentia, 1 Repentia Superior, 1 Canoness, 1 Penitent Engine, 5 Seraphim, 3 Arco-flagellants, 1 Rhino The only place you can actually get Venomcrawlers, Greater Possessed, or the new Obliterators, the new SC: Chaos Space Marines is a pretty decent deal, even if those were available elsewhere. Every single unit in the box got a points drop in Chapter Approved 2019 and the only stinker in the box is the Master of Possession (and you can proxy that as a Sorcerer with most players). You can also get by pretty well without the units in this box however, so it’s also not particularly necessary to buy. Those who have remained plugged into their masked helmets can go for solar days without needing additional nutrition or sleep. They simply stand side-by-side on their transport between missions in a sort of trance, dormant yet ever alert.

A fanatical Commissar leads his fellow progena among the Tempestus Scions into battle against Greenskins. The Ordo Tempestus commands the finest human soldiers in the galaxy. Its disciplined ranks boast not only the elite Scions of the Militarum Tempestus but also brutal Commissars. Descended from the very best and bravest of the Imperium’s noble bloodlines, these exceptional warriors are called upon to to perform the toughest of missions in humanity’s darkest hour. Once each of their spheres of knowledge is complete, they will be given the uniform and authority of a full member of the Officio Prefectus. Entrusted with a bolt pistol, the holy instrument of authority and vengeance presented to all of their brethren, and frequently given a Power Sword for close-quarters fighting, the Commissar is ready to instill discipline and strike the fear of the Emperor into all those within the Ordo Tempestus and without. This is very much a sidegrade, but it’s an option. The heavy weapon squad and the command squad are essentially 6+4=10 men and lots of useful components. You don’t have to build them as intended. Instead, you can just mix those bits with your regular infantry bits to make three squads. This has the added coolness of mixing up your poses a little, so you can have guardsmen kneeling and firing their lasguns, and so on. Your Initial Army List
