Legends: Agents of the Imperium | Datasheet | 10 | August 2023 |
Throughout the Imperium there exist numerous martial organisations and shadowy institutions. Bodies of armed warriors or solitary agents from these groups possess specialist skills, unusual equipment and vested interests that lead them to be attached to larger Imperial armies. Some are requisitioned by the army’s commander for their particular abilities, others are assigned by their hidden masters to achieve singular agendas. The most powerful have the authority and reputation to enforce their presence on the field of battle.
If your Army Faction is AGENTS OF THE IMPERIUM, then in the Select Detachment Rules step, you can select one of the available Detachments from this book as normal.

Thousands of years of collated strategic data and hard-won combat experience have provided the Deathwatch with the ultimate battlefield tactics to combat almost any foe.
At the start of your Command phase, you can select one of the Mission Tactics listed below. Until the start of your next Command phase, that Mission Tactic is active and its effects apply to all DEATHWATCH units from your army. Each Mission Tactic can only be selected once per battle.Furor Tactics The warriors of the Deathwatch are often sorely outnumbered by swarming foes, yet by striking for maximum indiscriminate carnage they soon even the odds. While this Mission Tactic is active, weapons equipped by DEATHWATCH units from your army have the [SUSTAINED HITS 1] ability. |
Malleus Tactics Even the largest behemoth has a weak point, and the Deathwatch find them all. While this Mission Tactic is active, weapons equipped by DEATHWATCH units from your army have the [LETHAL HITS] ability. |
Purgatus Tactics Adopting Purgatus tactics, the Deathwatch focus their ire upon the commanders of the enemy host. While this Mission Tactic is active, each time a DEATHWATCH model from your army makes an attack, on a Critical Wound, that attack has the [PRECISION] ability. |
This talisman houses a hate-filled machine spirit that despises alien artifice. Its influence can be focused against the war engines of aliens and traitors alike to disrupt or even paralyse them altogether. WATCH MASTER model only. At the start of your opponents Shooting phase, select one enemy VEHICLE unit (excluding TITANIC units) within 12" of and visible to the bearer. That unit must take a Leadership test. If that test is passed, until the end of the phase, each time a model in that unit makes an attack, subtract 1 from the Hit roll; if that test is failed, that unit is not eligible to shoot this phase. |
The Beacon Angelis was devised to guide the Death watch to the threshold of the alien adversary. Housed within a reliquary, it calls out to the warriors’ augur arrays with the voices of a hundred electric cherubim, its summons so strong that it draws the righteous unto its locale regardless of what darkness may surround it. WATCH MASTER model only. Models in the bearer’s unit have the Deep Strike ability. In addition, you can target the bearer’s unit with the Rapid Ingress Stratagem for 0CP. |
This hypermorphic bodyglove of uncertain origin is worn beneath a warrior’s armour. It forms a fibrous medium that shields the warrior’s most vital systems. AGENTS OF THE IMPERIUM model only. The bearer has the Feel No Pain 4+ ability. |
A fragment of STC technology, this device tastes the spoor of its owner’s foes, then fashions tailored toxins not even the most resilient victim can long endure. AGENTS OF THE IMPERIUM model only. Melee weapons equipped by the bearer have the [ANTI-INFANTRy 2+] and [ANTI-MONSTER 4+] abilities. |
No matter how cunningly their heretical prey hides, they cannot escape the zealous retribution of the Ordo Hereticus.
Ranged weapons equipped by ADEPTUS ARBITES, INQUISITOR, INQUISITORIAL AGENTS and ORDO HERETICUS models from your army have the [IGNORES COvER] ability.
An artificer-crafted flame projector of focused and terrible vehemence, this weapon has been the bane of countless heretics across the ages. INQUISITOR or MINISTORUM PRIEST model only. The bearers ranged weapons have the [DEVASTATING WOUNDS], [MELTA 1] and [PRECISION] abilities. |
This ancient grimoire contains the collected accounts of many Inquisitorial purges, and is a trove of lore for those seeking to ambush and entrap heretics. INQUISITOR or MINISTORUM PRIEST model only. After both players have deployed their armies, select up to three AGENTS OF THE IMPERIUM units from your army and redeploy them. When doing so, you can set those units up in Strategic Reserves if you wish, regardless of how many units are already in Strategic Reserves. |
None but the most diabolical or desperate stand any chance of slipping through this Inquisitor’s grasp. INQUISITOR model only. While an enemy unit is within 6" of the bearer, each time it is selected to Fall Back it must first take a Leadership test. If that test is failed, that unit must Remain Stationary this phase instead. |
This merciless Imperial agent is monomaniacally focused upon hunting and slaying psykers. INQUISITOR or MINISTORUM PRIEST model only. While the bearer is leading a unit, each time a model in that unit makes an attack that targets a PSYKER unit, you can re-roll the Hit roll. |
Knowing the vital nature of their mission, the servants of the Ordo Malleus fight all the harder to lay their enemies low.
Each time an INQUISITOR, INQUISITORIAL AGENTS or ORDO MALLEUS model from your army makes an attack, re-roll a Hit roll of 1 and, if the target of that attack is a DAEMON unit, re-roll a Wound roll of 1 as well.
Some whisper this weapon of banishment is in fact host to a hostile warp entity in its own right. INQUISITOR model only. Add 1 to the Attacks characteristic of the bearers melee weapons, and those weapons have the [ANTI-DAEMON 3+] ability. |
Inquisitors of the Ordo Malleus are amongst the hardiest and most bombastic of their kind. They must be to survive their duties. INQUISITOR model only. Improve the bearer’s Leadership and Wounds characteristics by 1. Once per battle, at the start of any phase, you can select one friendly Battle-shocked unit within 12" of the bearer. That unit is no longer Battle-shocked. |
Guided by the scryings of their Prognosticars, the Grey Knights strike with deadly precision and timing. INQUISITOR model only. Once per battle, if the bearer is on the battlefield, you can use the Rapid Ingress Stratagem for 0CP. When doing so, you must target a GREY KNIGHTS TERMINATOR SQUAD unit from your army, and when using that Stratagem, that unit can be set up anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 3" away from all enemy units. |
To wield the true name of a daemon is to control its supernatural power, though whether in the name of banishment or to be unleashed as a weapon of terror falls to the discretion of the grimoire’s keeper. INQUISITOR model only. While an enemy unit is within 9" of the bearer, worsen the Leadership characteristic of models in that unit by 1. In addition, while an enemy DAEMON unit is within 9" of the bearer, each time a model in that DAEMON unit makes an attack, subtract 1 from the Hit roll and subtract 1 from the Wound roll. |
While the nature of the missions undertaken by Imperial agents is as varied as they are, the vital importance of these tasks rarely changes. The enemies they face are the most unholy. The prizes they seek are as priceless as they are nightmarishly dangerous. Thus, when such warriors of the Imperium identify a priority target for elimination or acquisition, no effort is too great nor price too high to see their aims achieved.
At the start of your Command phase, you can select one of the following to apply:Eliminate At All Costs Select one enemy unit on the battlefield. Until the start of your next Command phase, each time an AGENTS OF THE IMPERIUM model from your army makes an attack that targets that enemy unit, add 1 to the Hit roll. |

At the start of the Declare Battle Formations step, you can select up to three VOIDFARERS units from your army - those units gain the Deep Strike ability. |
These potent, short-ranged energy weapons are concealed in precious items of jewellery, the better to lethally surprise the foe. AGENTS OF THE IMPERIUM model only. Each time the bearer is selected to fight, roll three D6: for each 4+, one enemy unit within Engagement Range of the bearer suffers 1 mortal wound. Mortal wounds inflicted by this Enhancement are allocated as if they had the [PRECISION] ability. |

If the bearer is included in a Crusade army whose Army Faction is not AGENTS OF THE IMPERIUM, the maximum number of REQUISITIONED, RETINUE and AGENTS OF THE IMPERIUM CHARACTER units that can be included in that army is increased by 1. Each time you start a Shadow Operation, you start with 1 Influence point.A favour owed or leveraged persuades a legendary Imperial killer to impart their teachings to this willing student.

Sooner or later, force is almost always required.
There is a horrible art to the battlefield interrogation of captured foes. It must be done swiftly and with the greatest efficacy, prying loose the enemy’s vital secrets using a mixture of shock tactics and frantic agony.
Sometimes the enemy’s plans can be thwarted by the timely application of a single perfectly placed bolt shell or envenomed blade. Such executions of vital targets delay and disrupt an enemy’s plans, buying time to further your own investigations.
Imperial agents will often work in the utmost secrecy to implant embedded operatives behind the enemy lines, such combat-capable assets only revealing themselves when the moment is right.
The Deathwatch stand sentinel over some of the most heavily alien-infested and dangerous expanses of Imperial space. They have guarded these sites for millennia against horrors uncounted, and they seize every opportunity to refine their battle strategies. With each victory over their enemies, so the Shield That Slays is fortified for its next battle against the xenos threat.
In helping an Inquisitor to achieve their own inscrutable agendas, a few honoured servants of the Golden Throne have earned the gratitude of the Holy Ordos. The reward for excelling in the eyes of such remorseless individuals is typically... another job.
Those veteran Space Marines who earn the station of Watch Master become adept at recognising how best to fuse the disparate skills of their subordinate battle-brothers. They know well how to ensure that rival Chapter cultures blend without friction while complementary tactical approaches are exploited to their greatest potential.

It is within the gift of some Imperial agents to requisition warriors augmented by master artificers, enhanced through rare gene therapies or provided with additional elite combat training.
This facility provides your agents with powerful cogitators, encrypted vox-channels and an array of covert assets that can hugely enhance their abilities.

These veterans have raised the slaying of xenos to a high art, the creatures' every flaw and weakness known to them.
From foetid xenos burrows to the pulsating innards of hive ships and the ramshackle confines of Ork scrap forts, these warriors are masters of driving deep into the territories of their prey and causing maximum damage.
Zealous and ever-suspicious, these heartless warriors never miss a chance to wring secrets from their tormented foes.
This band of agents displays a cunning knack for moving undetected and appearing wherever their master needs them most.
So single-minded and unrelenting are these agents that their every thought and deed is utterly dedicated to furthering their ability to serve the Master of Mankind.
These Arbitrators are swift and uncompromising in their response to heresy.
This squad executes their unrest suppression drills with an icy calm that seems almost inhuman.
It is second nature to these Arbitrators to stun, disarm or otherwise incapacitate combat opponents for later excruciation.
It often falls to naval landing parties to seize and ransack key strategic objectives during bridgehead operations.
Long experience ofsweepingfoesfrom shipboard corridors has taught these warriors to focus their fire to great effect.

This agent’s sheer faith armours them against the horrors of the galaxy.
An agent such as this has no qualms about employing tools deemed heretical if it serves Humanity's interests.

PURITAN model only. The first time the bearer is destroyed, roll one D6 at the end of the phase. On a 2+, set the bearer back up on the battlefield, as close as possible to where it was destroyed and not within Engagement Range of any enemy units, with its full wounds remaining. All enemy units within 6" of the bearer must then take a Battle-shock test.High-ranking imperial agents maintain a veritable museum of unique treasures about their flagships and bases of operations, many dating from the dawn of the Imperium.

Through your dedication, cunning and strength at arms, you have proven yourself a truly worthy asset. Whichever shadowy patrons you serve, they no longer consider you expendable and are instead watching your endeavours with interest. There are few who can long endure the shadow wars fought in the Emperors name, but you may yet prove to be such a one.
You have halted profane rituals, exposed debased cults and brought stability to entire Imperial systems. Your battles may have cost many lives, but they have preserved vital Imperial infrastructure and institutions. Your star might be veiled amidst the shadows, but it is rising nonetheless.
Where once you fought to fulfil the agendas of other - more powerful - patrons, now you are the one pulling the strings. You have crushed mighty enemies of the Imperium. You have set worlds ablaze in the name of the Master of Mankind, and feel no regret. Your name is whispered in terror by heretics and aliens alike, and spoken with respect in Terras halls of power.

Weapons with [BLAST] in their profile are known as Blast weapons, and they make a random number of attacks. Each time you determine how many attacks are made with a Blast weapon, add 1 to the result for every five models that were in the target unit when you selected it as the target (rounding down).
