Datasheet-related Stratagems
Bitterness has consumed the souls of many thousand Sons champions, seeping from their thoughts into their Rubricae.
Arcane invocations imbue the Thousand Sons’ weapons with sorcerous power, rendering them still more lethal to the foe.
Those not driven mad by their worship of Tzeentch gain the power to harness the energies of the warp like few others.
The sorceries of the Thousand Sons can alter reality itself, rendering whole that which has been put asunder.
Many lesser warp entities whisper dark secrets to selected individuals that can shift the tide of battle.
Even the gathered gheists of the Thousand Sons sing with sorcery. On occasion this manifests in destructive fashion.
To pit oneself against the psychic might of the Thousand Sons is to be trapped, helpless and screaming, within your own mind.
Though the empyrean is a dangerous weapon to wield, the Thousand Sons know better than most how to take the greatest risks and remain unharmed.
The most powerful Sorcerers of the Thousand Sons are battle-psykers who can, if the need is dire enough, siphon a sliver of their corrupted souls into their force staves to temporarily boost their lethality.
The greatest champions of Tzeentch can call upon their thralls and other lesser minions to serve as their sorcerous lieutenants in battle.
The halls of Tizca are replete with sorcerous esoterica, gathered by Magnus and his gene-sons over thousands of years.
The Sorcerer absorbs the chaotic energies flowing thickly around a Mutalith Vortex Beast, healing injuries he has sustained.
The warriors of the Thousand Sons advance inexorably upon their foes while laying down a hail of weapons fire. Unable to falter even if they wished to, they remain deadly accurate at all times.
The Rubricae are superlative, enduring guardians who can absorb great storms of fire directed at their masters.
By breaking into and traversing the winding paths of the webway, the Thousand Sons are able to outflank their foes.
The sorcerers and magick-wielders of the Warpmeld Pacts are wreathed in psychic energy They may well appear to be in one place to their foes, but things are not always as they seem.
When the energy of Tzeentchian magicks flow so strongly, not only can Tzaangor once slain be restored to life, but more can be created from pure warp power.
- If that unit has the BRAY keyword, return up to D3+1 destroyed models to that unit with their full wounds remaining.
- Otherwise, return up to 1 destroyed model to that unit with its full wounds remaining.
The Thousand Sons have vast libraries full of ancient texts. The knowledge contained within can enhance the Sorcerers’ power.
Psychic Powers
Smite
Smite has a warp charge value of 5. Add 1 to the warp charge value of this psychic power for each other attempt that has been made to manifest this power by a unit from your army in this phase, whether that attempt was successful or not. If manifested, the closest enemy unit within 18" of and visible to the psyker suffers D3 mortal wounds. If the result of the Psychic test was 11 or more, that unit suffers D6 mortal wounds instead.- Warp Charge 5: A Psychic test of 5+ is required to manifest Smite.
- Warp charge increases by 1 for each other attempt to manifest Smite made in this phase.
- If manifested, closest visible enemy unit in 18" suffers D3 mortal wounds.
- If manifested with a Psychic test result of 11+, enemy instead suffers D6 mortal wounds.
Discipline of Change
| D33 | PSYCHIC POWER |
| 11 | TZEENTCH’S FIRESTORM The psyker conjures a raging storm of pink and blue fire down from the skies, that mutates his foes and leaves capering daemons that claw and bite in its wake. Witchfire: Tzeentch’s Firestorm has a warp charge value of 6. If manifested, select one enemy unit within 18" of and visible to this PSYKER and roll nine D6. For each roll of 6, that enemy unit suffers 1 mortal wound. If the result of the Psychic test was an unmodified 9+, that enemy unit suffers 1 mortal wound for each roll of 5+ instead. |
| 12 | GLAMOUR OF TZEENTCH The psyker twists and obscures the perceptions of his foes to the point that his allies become all but invisible. Blessing: Glamour of Tzeentch has a warp charge value of 6. If manifested, select one friendly THOUSAND SONS unit within 18" of this PSYKER. Until the start of your next Psychic phase, each time an attack is made against that unit, subtract 1 from that attack’s hit roll. |
| 13 | DOOMBOLT The psyker hurls a bolt of roiling energy that horribly twists its target into abhorrent and mutated new shapes. Witchfire: Doombolt has a warp charge value of 6. If manifested, the closest enemy unit within 18" of and visible to this PSYKER suffers 3 mortal wounds. |
| 21 | TEMPORAL MANIPULATION Fashioning a pocket of dilated time around an injured ally, the psyker accelerates the rate at which their flesh reknits. Blessing: Temporal Manipulation has a warp charge value of 5. If manifested, select one friendly THOUSAND SONS model (excluding VEHICLES) within 12" of this PSYKER. That model is healed and regains up to D3 lost wounds. Each model can only be healed once per turn. |
| 22 | WEAVER OF FATES The skeins of the future are laid bare to the psyker, revealing the fates of battle. Forewarned of imminent danger, his warriors dodge bullets and sword blows with seemingly supernatural reflexes. Blessing: Weaver of Fates has a warp charge value of 7. If manifested, select one friendly THOUSAND SONS unit within 18" of this PSYKER. Until the start of your next Psychic phase, models in that unit have a 4+ invulnerable save. |
| 23 | BALEFUL DEVOLUTION Transmogrifying energies erupt from the psyker’s eyes, playing across the enemy’s ranks and reducing their proud warriors to mewling beasts. Witchfire: Baleful Devolution has a warp charge value of 8. If manifested, select one enemy unit within 18" of and visible to this PSYKER that contains 6 or more models. Roll a number of D6 equal to the result of the Psychic test: for each roll of 6, that enemy unit suffers D3 mortal wounds. |
| 31 | CACODAEMONIC CURSE With dark invocations, the psyker summons cackling daemon imps to infest the enemy’s weapons. Malediction: Cacodaemonic Curse has a warp charge value of 6. If manifested, select one enemy unit within 18" of this PSYKER. Until the start of your next Psychic phase, subtract 1 from the Strength characteristic of ranged weapons models in that unit are equipped with. |
| 32 | PYRIC FLUX The psykers makes themselves into a bounteous font of unholy warpflame. Blessing: Pyric Flux has a warp charge value of 5. If manifested, select one friendly ARCANA ASTARTES unit within 12" of this PSYKER. Until the end of the turn, add 1 to the Strength characteristic of all warpflamers, warpflame pistols and heavy warpflamers (and any Relics that replace one of these weapons) that models in that unit are equipped with. |
| 33 | PERPLEX With perspective-warping illusions the psyker obfuscates his enemies’ vision, rendering their targets fluid and indistinct. Malediction: Perplex has a warp charge value of 7. If manifested, select one enemy unit within 24" of this PSYKER. Until the start of your next Psychic phase, each time that unit is selected to shoot, units more than 24" away cannot be selected as the target of ranged attacks. |
Discipline of Vengeance
| D33 | PSYCHIC POWER |
| 11 | GAZE OF HATE Pure roiling hatred surges through the psyker, becoming first dark fire in their veins then leaping from their eyes in searing columns of annihilating energy. Those struck by them risk being scoured from existence entirely. Witchfire: Gaze of Hate has a warp charge value of 5. If manifested, select one enemy unit within 18" of and visible to this PSYKER and roll three D6: for each roll of 4+, that enemy unit suffers 1 mortal wound. |
| 12 | TWIST OF FATE One with sufficient willpower and disregard for their own soul can glean forbidden lore by looking upon the unfettered tides of the warp, plucking silvery skeins of fate from amongst the deadly morass and spinning them into nooses for their luckless foes. Malediction: Twist of Fate has a warp charge value of 8. If manifested, select one enemy unit within 12" of this PSYKER. Until the start of your next Psychic phase, models in that unit cannot use any invulnerable saves. |
| 13 | DARK BLESSING Offering bloody sacrifice to the Dark Gods, the psyker calls down their unbridled generosity upon his foe. Their bodies are wracked by hideous mutations, their sanity collapsing as their mortal forms become a heaving, thrashing mass of horror. Witchfire: Dark Blessing has a warp charge value of 6. If manifested, select one enemy model within 6" of and visible to this PSYKER and roll one D6: if the result is greater than the target’s Toughness characteristic, its unit suffers D3+3 mortal wounds. |
| 21 | PRESAGE The psyker reads signs and omens in the ebb and flow of battle, the whirling patterns of smoke, the spatter of blood as blades bite home. These gleaned warnings he passes on to his warriors, the better for them to predict and thus strike down their enemies. Blessing: Presage has a warp charge value of 7. If manifested, select one friendly THOUSAND SONS unit within 18" of this PSYKER. Until the start of your next Psychic phase, each time a model in that unit makes an attack, add 1 to that attack’s hit roll. |
| 22 | SWELLED BY THE WARP The psyker opens a ragged channel to the roiling energies of the warp and funnels them recklessly into a chosen target. That warrior’s form expands with iron-hard muscle, lashing extra limbs, gnashing fangs and vicious talons that allow them to tear a bloody path through the foe. Blessing: Swelled by the Warp has a warp charge value of 6. If manifested, select one friendly THOUSAND SONS model within 12" of this PSYKER. Until the start of your next Psychic phase, add 2 to that model’s Strength characteristic and 1 to its Attacks characteristic. |
| 23 | TEMPORAL SURGE With a wrench of mind, body and soul the psyker tears ropey strands of temporal energy through the veil from beyond and hurls them out to wind about his allies. Those so blessed are sped into battle all the faster as their garland of stolen time burns swiftly away. Blessing: Temporal Surge has a warp charge value of 7. If manifested, select one friendly THOUSAND SONS INFANTRY, THOUSAND SONS CAVALRY, or THOUSAND SONS BEASTS unit within 6" of this PSYKER. That unit can make a Normal Move. |
| 31 | EMPYRIC GUIDANCE The psyker conjures a whirling flock of daemonic imps that bear his comrades’ shells and energy blasts across the battlefield on flickering wings of unholy flame. Blessing: Empyric Guidance has a warp charge value of 4. If manifested, select one friendly THOUSAND SONS unit within 12" of this PSYKER. Until the start of your next Psychic phase, add 6" to the Range characteristic of Rapid Fire and Heavy weapons models in that unit are equipped with. |
| 32 | PSYCHIC STALK Astrally projecting a portion of his soul into the warp, the psyker circles the flickering witchfires of his victims’ souls. Should their mental defences drop for even a moment, he strikes with predatory swiftness. Witchfire: Psychic Stalk has a warp charge value of 5. If manifested, select one enemy unit that is not a VEHICLE, MONSTER or CHARACTER within 18" of and visible to this PSYKER. Roll 2D6: if the result is greater than the unmodified Leadership characteristic of that unit, one model in that unit selected by your opponent is slain. |
| 33 | DESECRATION OF WORLDS The worlds of the galaxy shall tremble and shatter beneath the dolorous tread of the Heretic Astartes, starting with this one! The psyker pours their rage and contempt into the bedrock of the battlefield, tainting it with their warpcraft even as they shatter it apart. Malediction: Desecration of Worlds has a warp charge value of 7. If manifested, select one enemy unit within 24" of and visible to this PSYKER. Until the start of your next Psychic phase, each time that unit makes a Normal Move, Advances, Falls Back or makes a charge move, roll one D6 for each model in that unit. For each result of 6, that unit suffers 1 mortal wound. |
Legion Command
Loyal Thrall
This model can attempt to perform a psychic action in its Psychic phase instead of attempting to manifest one psychic power, rather than any.Witch-warrior
Each time this model manifests Smite or a Witchfire psychic power that inflicts mortal wounds on a dice roll (e.g. D3, or rolling one D6 for each model in the unit), you can re-roll one of the dice to determine the number of mortal wounds inflicted.Battle-psyker
Change this model’s Ballistic Skill and Weapon Skill characteristic to 2+, and change its Attacks characteristic to 5.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.
When an INFANTRY model shoots a Heavy weapon, subtract 1 from the hit rolls when resolving that weapon’s attacks if the firing model’s unit has moved for any reason this turn (e.g. it made a Normal Move this turn).
- Subtract 1 from hit rolls if firing model is INFANTRY and its unit has moved this turn.
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.
- Remain Stationary: Models cannot move this phase.
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.

Inferno bolt pistol used in the following datasheets:
A model can make attacks with a Pistol even when its unit is within Engagement Range of enemy units, but it must target an enemy unit that is within Engagement Range of its own unit when it does so. In such circumstances, the model can target an enemy unit even if other friendly units are within Engagement Range of the same enemy unit.
When a model equipped with both a Pistol and another type of ranged weapon (e.g. a Pistol and a Rapid Fire weapon) shoots, it can either shoot with its Pistol(s) or with its other ranged weapons. Choose which it will fire (Pistols or non-Pistols) before selecting targets.
- Can be shot even if firing model’s unit is within Engagement Range of enemy unit.
- Cannot be shot alongside any other type of weapon.
Plasma pistol used in the following datasheets:
– may take Plasma pistol as an option.Warpflame pistol used in the following datasheets:
|
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.
Force stave used in the following datasheets:
Force sword used in the following datasheets:
Frag grenade used in the following datasheets:
- If a Blast weapon targets a unit that has between 6 and 10 models, it always makes a minimum of 3 attacks. So if, when determining how many attacks are made with that weapon, the dice rolled results in less than 3 attacks being made, make 3 attacks instead. For example, if a Grenade D6 weapon with the Blast rule targets a unit that has 6 or more models, and you roll a 2 to determine how many attacks are made, that roll is counted as being a 3 and that weapon makes three attacks against that unit.
- When a Blast weapon targets a unit that has 11 or more models, do not roll dice to randomly determine how many attacks are made – instead, make the maximum possible number of attacks. For example, if a Grenade D6 weapon with the Blast rule targets a unit that has 11 or more models, that weapon makes six attacks against that unit.
- Blast Weapons: Minimum three attacks against units with 6+ models. Always make maximum number of attacks against units with 11+ models.
- Can never be used to attack units within the firing unit’s Engagement Range.
When a unit shoots, one model that is equipped with a Grenade in that unit can resolve attacks with it instead of shooting any other weapons.
- Only one model can use a Grenade when its unit shoots.
Krak grenades used in the following datasheets:
- 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.
To manifest the psychic power, you must first pass a Psychic test. The opposing player can then select one of their PSYKER units that is within 24" of the PSYKER unit attempting to manifest the power and attempt to deny that power before its effects are resolved by passing a Deny the Witch test.
So long as the Psychic test was successful and the psychic power was not denied by a successful Deny the Witch test, the psychic power is successfully manifested and its effects, which will be described in the power itself, are then resolved. If the PSYKER unit can attempt to manifest more than one psychic power in its Psychic phase, you can then attempt to manifest those, one at a time, as described above. The number of psychic powers each PSYKER unit can attempt to manifest in its Psychic phase is listed on its datasheet.
- Select psychic power.
- You cannot select the same psychic power more than once per battle round, unless that power is Smite.
- Attempt to manifest the psychic power by taking a Psychic test.
- The opponent can attempt to deny the psychic power by taking a Deny the Witch test.
- If successfully manifested, resolve the psychic power’s effects.
- Select another psychic power.
- Deny the Witch: Passed if 2D6 exceeds result of the opposing PSYKER’s Psychic test.
- Only one attempt can be made to deny each psychic power.
- Psychic test: Passed if 2D6 equals or exceeds psychic power’s warp charge.
- If double 1 or double 6 rolled, PSYKER suffers Perils of the Warp.
- Warp Charge 5: A Psychic test of 5+ is required to manifest Smite.
- Warp charge increases by 1 for each other attempt to manifest Smite made in this phase.
- If manifested, closest visible enemy unit in 18" suffers D3 mortal wounds.
- If manifested with a Psychic test result of 11+, enemy instead suffers D6 mortal wounds.

Sometimes there will be insufficient room to set up all the models from a unit, or it will not be possible to set up all the models so that they are in unit coherency. When this is the case, any models that cannot be set up are considered to have been destroyed.
- Unit coherency: 2" horizontally + 5" vertically.
- Each model must be in unit coherency with one other model from own unit.
- While unit has 6+ models, each model must be in unit coherency with 2 other models from own unit.

- Can never fire Overwatch while enemy units are in Engagement Range.
- When firing Overwatch, shoot with unit, but attacks only hit on unmodified 6s.
If every model in an INFANTRY unit is within 3" of an Obstacle terrain feature with this trait, then it can either Hold Steady or it can Set to Defend (see below) when an enemy unit declares a charge against it if, were you to draw a straight line, 1mm in thickness, between the closest parts of the bases (or hulls) of the two closest models in the two units, that line would pass over or through that terrain feature.
A unit cannot Hold Steady or Set to Defend while it is within Engagement Range of any enemy units.
If a unit Holds Steady, any Overwatch attacks made by that unit this phase will score hits on rolls of 5+. If a unit Sets to Defend, it cannot fire Overwatch this phase, but you add 1 to hit rolls when resolving attacks made with melee weapons by models in that unit until the end of the next Fight phase.
- INFANTRY units can Hold Steady or Set to Defend (if no enemy within Engagement Range).
- Hold Steady: Overwatch attacks hit on 5+.
- Set to Defend: Cannot fire Overwatch but add 1 to hit rolls in next Fight phase.

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.
- Advance: Models move up to M+D6".
- Cannot move within Engagement Range of enemy models.
- Units that Advance cannot shoot or charge this turn.
- Declare targets of the charge (must be within 12").
- Charge roll = 2D6".
- If insufficient to move charging unit into Engagement Range of all targets, charge fails.
- If charge successful, models make their charge move.
- Cannot make a charge move within Engagement Range of any unit that was not the target of the charge.
- Normal Move: Models move up to M".
- Cannot move within Engagement Range of any enemy models.
- Fall Back: Models move up to M".
- Units that Fall Back cannot charge this turn.
- Units that Fall Back cannot shoot or manifest psychic powers this turn unless they are TITANIC.
Favoured as they are by Tzeentch, the Thousand Sons are ever-wreathed in the coiling energies of the empyrean. It is the gift of their sorcerous leaders to channel this power through battlefield ritual, beseeching the Changer of the Ways to gift them forbidden knowledge, to enhance their already potent magicks or to ravage their foes with warpfire and mutation.
In your Psychic phase, unless otherwise specified, you can use each Cabbalistic Ritual once, and each unit from your army can only benefit from one Cabbalistic Ritual. A unit can only benefit from a Cabbalistic Ritual if it has this ability.
Note that when a Cabbalistic Ritual specifies a ‘unit from your army’ with regard to when it can be used (e.g. ‘when a unit from your army is selected to manifest psychic powers’), that Cabbalistic Ritual can only be used if that unit has the THOUSAND SONS keyword.
4 Cabal Points
Like flame leaping along a trail of spilled promethium, the Thousand Sons’ magicks feed upon the latent energies clouding the air and race hungrily away through them towards the foe.
Use this Cabbalistic Ritual when a psychic power is successfully manifested by a unit from your army. Add 6" to the range of that psychic power’s effects (if that psychic power specifies multiple ranges, e.g. Astral Blast, add 6" to the first range specified in that psychic power).MALEVOLENT CHARGE
4 Cabal Points
The malefic energies of dark sorcery flow together in ever more lethal concentrations into fiery, mutating storms.
Use this Cabbalistic Ritual when a psychic power is successfully manifested by a unit from your army. If the psychic power inflicts mortal wounds on enemy units, after inflicting the mortal wounds select one of those units and inflict D3 additional mortal wounds on that unit.KINDRED SORCERERS
5 Cabal Points
For an instant, the chanting voices of the Thousand Sons’ champions achieve perfect synchronisation, words of malign incantation rolling out like the peal of some cursed bell.
Use this Cabbalistic Ritual after taking a Psychic test for a unit from your army. Add 1 to that Psychic test.WARP SIGHT
3 Cabal Points
With their tainted souls melded as one amidst the empyrean, what one champion of the cabal sees, all their fellows see also.
Use this Cabbalistic Ritual when a psychic power is successfully manifested by a unit from your army. If the psychic power requires you to select a unit visible to the PSYKER, for that manifestation you can select a unit visible to any friendly unit with the Cabbalistic Rituals ability.ECHOES FROM THE WARP
4 Cabal Points
Plucked from amidst the howling winds of the immaterium and the gibbering of countless damned voices come whispers of invaluable daemonic prophecy.
Use this Cabbalistic Ritual in your Psychic phase. Select one PSYKER unit from your army. Until the end of the phase, that unit can perform the following psychic action: Echoes From the Warp (Psychic Action - Warp Charge 3): If successful, gain 1 Command point.7 Cabal Points
Though it is always perilous to make deals with the entities of the warp, the support of one’s cabal ameliorates the risks somewhat.
Use this Cabbalistic Ritual when attempting to manifest a psychic power with a unit from your army. Do not make a Psychic test: that Psychic test is passed at the minimum required warp charge value.8 Cabal Points
With the champions of the cabal incanting as one, their sorceries become an unstoppable tidal wave.
Use this Cabbalistic Ritual after a Psychic test made for a unit from your army is passed. That psychic power or psychic action cannot be denied.PSYCHIC MAELSTROM
8 Cabal Points
By establishing a recursive temporal loop, the cabal are able to lash the enemy with the same terrible moment of loss over and over again.
Use this Cabbalistic Ritual when a unit from your army is selected to manifest psychic powers. Until the end of the phase, that unit can attempt to manifest one Witchfire psychic power that another PSYKER in your army has already attempted to manifest during the phase, even though the same psychic power cannot normally be attempted more than once per Psychic phase, and even if that unit does not know that psychic power.WRATH OF THE IMMATERIUM

Such is the aura of latent energy roiling at the cabal’s command, it is as though the daemons of the warp lend their own unnatural power to the champions’ conjurations.
