Datasheet-related Stratagems
The Iron Warriors unflinchingly face their fate, drawing upon millennia of resolve to weather the most punishing of attacks.
No armour is safe from the guns of the IV Legion, and once an enemy war engine is marked for destruction, its doomed is sealed.
The Legion’s contempt for the Imperial Fists runs deep, unleashed in a surge of violent atrocity whenever they clash with Dorn’s sons.
Vashtorr is a being unfettered by linear time and possessed of infinite patience and inventiveness. He thinks nothing of setting in motion centuries-long chains of cause and effect that transform reality into a mechanism of death calibrated to do his bidding and leave his foes with nowhere to hide from his worshippers’ wrath.
The seething hatred that the Heretic Astartes harbour for the Corpse Emperor and his weakling, thin-blooded Space Marines is a weapon unto itself.
Veterans of centuries or millennia, the Long War’s most embittered warriors have learnt how best to focus their need for vengeance.
Fulgrim's scions are renowned for their bladecraft, toying with their inferiors while preparing an exquisite, penetrating thrust.
Warriors who venerate Slaanesh through the most graceful fighting forms are rewarded in their endeavours.
- If used in your Movement phase, do not make an Advance roll for that unit. Instead, until the end of the phase, add 6" to the Move characteristic of models in that unit.
- If used in your Charge phase, do not roll 2D6 for that unit’s charge roll. Instead, until the end of the phase, roll D6+6 for that unit’s charge roll.
The hatred the warriors of the Traitor Legions hold for the Imperium and the Emperor has burned for millennia.
The visceral sensation of every fresh kill causes the warriors of the Emperor’s Children to enter an ecstatic frenzy of butchery and dismemberment.
Isolated survivors and the meek of mind are favoured quarry of the VIII Legion.
- If that attack targets a unit that was below its Starting Strength when the attacking unit was selected to shoot or fight, or it targets a unit that has a Leadership characteristic of 6 or less, re-roll a hit roll of 1.
- If that attack targets a unit that was below Half-strength when the attacking unit was selected to shoot or fight, or it targets a unit that has a Leadership characteristic of 5 or less, you can re-roll the hit roll.
Having fought countless campaigns of terror in complete darkness, the Night Lords know how to make an ally of the shadows.
Never will the outrage in beloved Monarchia be forgiven; the idols toppled there by Guillimans sons will be reforged from their bones.
There is no greater way to venerate Chaos than to bond mortal with daemon. When battle is joined, the daemons within such warriors can burn through their soul, boosting their unholy power.
The sites the enemy deem valuable must be cast down and despoiled in the name of the Dark Gods. Only the foolish would stand between the Word Bearers and their unholy task.
It is a great honour to be the first to slay the foe, and the Black Legion charge their enemies lines with devastating ferocity.
- You can re-roll charge rolls made for that unit.
- Each time a model in that unit makes a melee attack against an enemy unit that is either in range of an objective marker or within your opponent’s deployment zone, improve the Armour Penetration characteristic of that attack by 1.
Bile’s experimental ministrations have left these warriors as freakish monsters. Cursed with clusters of compound eyes, distended, fang-stuffed jaws or myriad other grotesqueries, they are hideous to behold.
Death does not always follow defeat. To the enemy’s most influential champions, the Night Lords reveal their most sadistic talents, the victims’ chilling screams broadcast to erode their allies’ mettle.
To be snatched away for experimentation by Fabius Bile and his creations is a truly horrifying fate.
- Subtract 1 from the Leadership characteristic of every enemy model.
- Your opponent cannot use the Insane Bravery Stratagem.
- Your opponent cannot use the Command Re-roll Stratagem to re-roll a Morale test.
To be snatched away for experimentation by Fabius Bile and his followers is an altogether nightmarish fate.
- Subtract 1 from the Leadership characteristic of every model in your opponent’s army.
- Your opponent cannot use the Insane Bravery Stratagem.
- Your opponent cannot use any rules to re-roll a Morale test.
The machine spirits of bellicose weapons blaze in Vashtorr’s sight just as mortal souls do to other daemons. With but a flicker of his will, the Arkifane twists and redirects those fierce energies back against the weapons’ wielders.
Ancient artefacts have exchanged hands many times, but only the most ambitious champions have the strength to wield them.
Daring pre-emptive strikes against the enemy’s supply lines and rearguard ensure that their reinforcements are either diverted or delayed by logistical anarchy.
The gibbering of Vashtorr’s imps replicates itself through the enemy’s command and control networks, a data-daemonic wall of binharic gibberish that fouls the best-laid plans.
Chaos Space Marines are not easily diverted from their obsessive need to kill, and can accomplish their battlefield goals without having to relent in their acts of destruction.
The wrath of Chaos Space Marines is inescapable.
More illusive than shadows, the Alpha Legion are amongst the keenest infiltrators in the galaxy.
The Black Legions ranks are host to warriors of diverse origins, enabling their warbands to draw upon an array of deadly skills.
The Black Legion let nothing stand in their way.
- That unit can ignore any or all modifiers to its Move characteristic, Advance rolls and charge rolls.
- That unit is eligible to shoot and declare a charge, even if it Falls Back this turn.
Death is but another thrilling experience, and the Emperor’s Children are loathe to deny the enemy such vistas of ecstatic sensation.
Contempt for lesser warriors drives the Emperor’s Children in their punishing reprisals.
- If that unit is not a CHARACTER unit, it is eligible to perform Heroic Interventions as if it were a CHARACTER unit.
- If that unit is a CHARACTER unit, it is eligible to perform a Heroic Intervention if it is within 6" horizontally and 5" vertically of any enemy unit, and when performing a Heroic Intervention with that unit, you can move each model in that unit up to 6".
- Each time a model in that unit makes a pile-in or consolidation move, it can move up to an additional 3".
The Iron Warriors see their thrall-servants as mere tools, fit only to soak up the foes ammunition and clog their blades.
The ploys and machinations of the Alpha Legion are ineffable to outsiders, the heretics' foes kept guessing or else deliberately fed contradictory disinformation.
Alpha Legion agents and saboteurs infiltrate enemy targets long before the foe join the battle.
A wise commander never takes their eyes off the Alpha Legion for a moment, for they will disappear in an instant, biding their time before reappearing for the final strike.
The Alpha Legion are as illusive as a shadow, their operatives stealing forward to occupy advanced positions or swiftly outmanoeuvre the foes carefully laid fire lanes.
The Hydra knows all. Accessing scan-feeds from hidden Legion ships, interpreting the whispers of warp gheists or acting on data from embedded traitors, few esoteric incursions are unexpected by the Alpha Legion.
These clandestine warriors can disappear at a moment’s notice, employing psychocrystalline camouflage, distorting warp-emitters or silenced servos coupled with obscuration skills honed over millennia.
When the Night Lords descend, there is no mercy.
The sons of Nostramo strike from the dark, outmanoeuvring the foe in the murk of war before surging forward like bloodhungry spectres.
The honourable fight is a laughable concept to the Night Lords, who employ darting strikes, feigned retreats and all manner of dirty tactics to win the battle.
Diabolical wards of protection can turn aside the enemy’s blows, and every Word Bearers armour is covered in dark script devoted to the Chaos Gods.
Diabolical wards of protection can turn aside the enemy’s blows.
Hideous screams of an aggressive techno-virus infiltrate the communication systems of the target, temporarily rendering it incapable of command.

SOULS OF THE DEVOTED Chaos Space Marines Stratagem The most unscrupulous amongst the Traitor Legions will think nothing of sacrificing the souls of their followers for personal glory. Use this Stratagem at the start of your Movement phase. Pick a DAEMONKIN RITUALISTS POSSESSED unit from your army and a friendly DAEMONKIN RITUALISTS CHARACTER that is within 6" of that unit and roll a D3. The POSSESSED unit suffers a number of mortal wounds equal to the result. The CHARACTER then regains a number of lost wounds equal to the result. | ||

VESSELS FOR THE NEVERBORN Chaos Space Marines Stratagem The proximity of a Master of Possession allows Daemon and mortal to bond more closely, allowing even greater power to be unleashed. Use this Stratagem at the start of the Fight phase. Pick a DAEMONKIN RITUALISTS DAEMON unit from your army that is within 6" of a friendly DAEMONKIN RITUALISTS MASTER OF POSSESSION. Add 1 to the Strength and Attacks characteristics of models in the unit you picked until the end of the phase. | ||

This datasheet has Elites Battlefield Role. Full list of Chaos Space Marines units sharing same Battlefield Role follows:
When a model shoots a Rapid Fire weapon, double the number of attacks it makes if its target is within half the weapon’s range.
- Double number of attacks made if target is within half range.
If a unit includes any models equipped with Assault weapons, that unit is still eligible to shoot with in your Shooting phase even if it has Advanced this turn, but you can only resolve attacks using those Assault weapons when you select that unit to shoot with. If a model shoots an Assault weapon in the same turn in which its unit has Advanced, subtract 1 from hit rolls when resolving that weapon’s attacks.
- Can be shot even if firing model’s unit Advanced.
- Subtract 1 from hit rolls if the firing model’s unit Advanced.
If an attack is made with a weapon that has an ability that says it ‘automatically hits the target’, no hit roll is made – that attack simply scores one hit on the target unit. An unmodified hit roll of 6 always scores a hit, and an unmodified hit roll of 1 always fails. A hit roll can never be modified by more than -1 or +1. This means that if, after all the cumulative modifiers to a hit roll have been calculated, the total modifier would be -2 or worse, it is changed to be -1. Similarly, if, after all the cumulative modifiers to a hit roll have been calculated, the total modifier would be +2 or better, it is changed to be +1.
If an attack inflicts mortal wounds in addition to the normal damage, resolve the normal damage first. If an attack inflicts mortal wounds in addition to the normal damage, but the normal damage is subsequently saved, the target unit still suffers the mortal wounds, as described before. If an ability modifies the damage inflicted by a weapon, and that weapon can inflict mortal wounds in addition to the normal damage, the modifier does not apply to any mortal wounds that are inflicted (unless the rule specifically states otherwise).
- Each mortal wound inflicted on a unit causes one model in the unit to lose one wound.
- No saving throws can be made against mortal wounds.
- Mortal wounds inflicted by attacks in addition to normal damage always apply, even if normal damage saved.
| ||||||||||||||
If the result of the wound roll is less than the required number, the attack fails and the attack sequence ends. An unmodified wound roll of 6 always successfully wounds the target, and an unmodified wound roll of 1 always fails. A wound roll can never be modified by more than -1 or +1. This means that if, after all the cumulative modifiers to a wound roll have been calculated, the total modifier would be -2 or worse, it is changed to be -1. Similarly, if, after all the cumulative modifiers to a wound roll have been calculated, the total modifier would be +2 or better, it is changed to be +1.
|
If a model has more than one melee weapon, select which it will use before resolving any attacks. If a model has more than one melee weapon and can make several attacks, it can split them between these weapons however you wish – declare which attacks are being made with which weapons before any attacks are resolved. If the selected weapon has more than one profile that you must choose between, you must declare which profile is being used at the same time. Different attacks made with such a weapon can be made using different profiles if you wish.
If your unit is making attacks with more than one melee weapon against a unit, and those weapons have different characteristics profiles, then after you have resolved an attack with one of those weapons you must, if any other weapons with the same characteristics profile are also being used to make attacks against that unit, resolve those attacks before resolving any attacks against the target with a weapon that has a different characteristics profile. Note that all the attacks you have declared are always resolved against the target unit even if, when you come to resolve an individual attack, no models in the target unit remain in range (this can happen because of models being destroyed and removed from the battlefield as the result of resolving other attacks made by the attacking model’s unit first).
- Each close combat attack is made with a melee weapon.
- A model makes attacks using the close combat weapon profile if it has no other melee weapons.
- If a unit attacks with multiple weapons, all attacks made with weapons that have the same profile must be resolved before resolving attacks with the next.

With skills honed in vast, bloody wars against the most heavily armoured or dug-in opposition, Chaos Space Marines punish such enemies with malicious barrages of utter destruction.
While this unit is engaged in Wanton Destruction, each time a model in this unit makes an attack with a Heavy, Rapid Fire or Grenade weapon, an unmodified hit roll of 6 scores 1 additional hit.Barbarous firefights and the indiscriminate slaying of foes have been notorious hallmarks of the Heretic Astartes wars for millennia.
While this unit is engaged in Wanton Massacre, each time a model in this unit makes an attack with a Rapid Fire, Assault or Pistol weapon, an unmodified hit roll of 6 scores 1 additional hit.Close assaults are the favoured tactics of many traitors, coupling murderous short-ranged firepower with the unrestrained slaughter of hand-to-hand execution.
While this unit is engaged in Wanton Slaughter, each time a model in this unit makes an attack with an Assault, Pistol or melee weapon, an unmodified hit roll of 6 scores 1 additional hit.Drawing upon countless years of festering bitterness and hate, Chaos Space Marines attack with a ferocity that is terrible to behold. Whether annihilating the foe at range or butchering them without mercy at close quarters, there is no aspect of death unknown to these traitors. Unencumbered by stultifying doctrines, they are capable of adapting their murderous priorities with horrifying ease, and there are no limits to the levels of devastation they will unleash to vent their anger.
If every unit from your army has the TRAITORIS ASTARTES keyword (excluding models with the AGENT OF CHAOS or UNALIGNED keyword) and every unit from your army (excluding ABADDON THE DESPOILER) is from the same Legion, this unit gains the following rules:- Each time a model in this unit shoots with a flame weapon, when determining how many attacks are made with that weapon this phase, add 2 to the result (e.g. a model shooting with a flamer makes D6+2 attacks).
- This unit gains a bonus (see below) depending on which wanton act it is engaged in, as follows:
- During the first battle round, your army (and every unit from it) is engaged in Wanton Destruction.
- During the second battle round, your army (and every unit from it) is engaged in Wanton Massacre.
- At the start of the third battle round, select either Wanton Massacre or Wanton Slaughter; until the end of that battle round, your army (and every unit from it) is engaged in the wanton act you selected.
- During the fourth and subsequent battle rounds, your army (and every unit from it) is engaged in Wanton Slaughter.
- Invulnerable save: Saving throw that is never modified by attacking weapon’s AP.
- A model with an invulnerable save can use it instead of its normal Sv.

Note that CHARACTERS cannot use their Aura Abilities while performing actions.
To commit to battle within the claustrophobic corridors and gothic chambers of a void ship necessitates near-suicidal courage, or else sufficient fear of the consequences of refusal. To stand their ground against impossible odds during such a fight requires warriors to exhibit a kind of single-minded madness.
Battle aboard a void ship is anarchic and confusing. Auspicators and map-slates must be watched constantly. Enemy contacts ghost in and out of sight as steam billows in clouds, lumen flicker and gunfire roars on every side. Amidst such conditions, the steady hand of a veteran commander is more important than ever, and can spell the difference between triumph and disaster.

HYPER-GROWTH BOLTS
These rounds contain Bile’s most unstable growth-inducing serums, causing victims to explode in eruptions of swelling flesh.
CREATIONS OF BILE model with bolt weapon only. When you give a model this Relic, select one bolt weapon that the bearer is equipped with. That weapon is considered to be a Relic for all rules purposes. Each time the bearer is selected to shoot, you can choose for that weapon to fire a hyper-growth bolt. If you do so, the bearer can only make one attack with that weapon this phase, but if that attack scores a hit, unless the target is a VEHICLE unit, it automatically wounds the target, has an Armour Penetration characteristic of -1, and has a Damage characteristic of D3+3.MAELSTROM’S BITE
This weapon heretically blends the pinnacle of Imperial thermal technology with the twisted energies of the immaterium.
RED CORSAIRS model with combi-melta only. This Relic replaces a combi-melta and has the following profile:Before selecting targets, select one or both of the profiles below to make attacks with. If you select both, then each time an attack is made with this weapon this phase, subtract 1 from that attack’s hit roll.

ASHEN AXE
A malefic nexus for the warp’s denizens, foes of the Word Bearers find themselves unable to flee the Ashen Axes blows, as invisible claws seem to root them to the spot. In truth, their minds are assailed by the entities, who circle impatiently for the soul feast the Ashen Axe will deliver.
WORD BEARERS model with power axe, exalted power axe, daemonic axe, axe of dismemberment or accursed weapon only. This Relic replaces a power axe, exalted power axe, daemonic axe, axe of dismemberment or accursed weapon and has the following profile:WEAPON | RANGE | TYPE | S | AP | D |

Abilities: Each time the bearer fights, if any enemy models are destroyed as the result of an attack made with this weapon, roll 2D6. If the result equals or exceeds the Leadership characteristic of the destroyed model’s unit, then until the end of the battle, that unit cannot Advance or Fall Back, and that unit is not eligible to fight in the Fight phase until after all eligible units from your army have done so. | |||||
THE ARMOUR DIABOLUS
This ancient battle plate is etched with a thousand and one dark runes of vengeance. Should the wearer’s blood flow into one of these graven sigils, it glows white hot and the infidels who dealt the blow burst into warpflame.
WORD BEARERS model only.- The bearer has a Save characteristic of 2+.
- Each time an enemy unit shoots or fights and the bearer was selected as a target of any of that units attacks, after that unit has finished making its attacks:
- Roll one D6 for each wound the bearer lost as a result of those attacks: for each 4+, the attacking unit suffers 1 mortal wound.
- If the bearer was destroyed by those attacks, before removing it from play, roll one D6: on a 4+, the attacking unit suffers D3 mortal wounds.
VIPER’S SPITE
This ornate bolt pistol has a wide, serpent head muzzle and a magazine that never seems to run dry. When fired, it makes no noise louder than a dry hiss, but a cacophony of screams is never far behind. The projectiles it fires glow with acrid viridian witchfire so virulent that they can sizzle through even Terminator war plate.

- Subtract 1 from hit rolls made for ranged weapons if at least 3” tall.
- Does not apply to models that are only shooting through their own terrain feature.
- No penalty when shooting at AIRCRAFT and units with W characteristic of 18+.
ICON OF THE HYDRA CULT
This unassuming, apparently meanly finished sigil hides a powerful device beneath its serpentine exterior. Within its coils lies unknown cloaking technology that emits a gloomy pall to hide the vilest of deeds from the most vigilant of sentinels.
ALPHA LEGION model only. This Relic can be given to a CULTISTS model. The bearer has the following ability:Icon of the Hydra Cult (Aura): While a friendly ALPHA LEGION CULTISTS unit is within 6" of the bearer, each time a ranged attack targets that unit, if the attacker is more than 12" away, the target is treated as having the benefits of Dense Cover against that attack.
DISTORTION
The unblemished sheen of this faultless blade reflects an alluring countenance to the bearer, their seemingly unmatched beauty a peerless example of perfection. In reality, the bearer is a hideous wretch, every ounce of elegance leached away to power the blade’s fearsome edge.
EMPEROR’S CHILDREN model with power sword, force sword or accursed weapon only. This Relic replaces a power sword, force sword or accursed weapon and has the following profile:Each time an attack is made with this weapon, select one of the profiles below to make that attack with.

ARMOUR OF ABHORRENCE
A canvas of the perverse, this suit of armour is adorned with fleshy mementos of captured warriors. The war plate turns its wearer into an effigy of excess, a mosaic of dark exuberance that delights the Emperors Children, but instils sheer horror in their enemies. In battle, enemy warriors experience utter revulsion at this ghastly display, yet they are unable to turn away from its mesmerising repulsiveness.
EMPEROR’S CHILDREN model only. The bearer has the following ability:Armour of Abhorrence (Aura): Each time an enemy unit (excluding TITANIC units) within 3" of the bearer is selected to Fall Back, roll one D6: on a 4+, that unit cannot Fall Back this turn.
