changing pledges and ensorcelled banners

so with the new updates we have two ways of changing pledges with either the daemon prince battle formation or the brand of the unaligned. how does this work with the banners aside from the dread banner.

a friend of mine told me that let's say i have chosen with the slaanesh banner and change it's pledge to khorne through either methode, that the banner reapplies the pledge to slaanesh as the text of the banner says that you have the pledge of slaanesh but keeps the pledge to khorne given to you.

how accurate is this? i am unsure about this but it would be very powerful to have +2 attacks and a 3d6 charge drop the lowest. i believe an faq should clear this up if you can or can't

scourge of aqshy rules

so brand of apoplexy sounds crazy. +1 damage if fury level is 7 i think an autotake with chosen or even warriors.

darkflame pendant i could see on a nurgle daemon prince to make him tankier or if you want to make a beatstick go for the rune of murder. could double up on this with deathmonger for fight twice as the extra attacks last until the end of the turn.

ashy karkadrak lord i could see if running varangaurd. ashy warriors could be a decent anvil with pledge of nurgle as you can easily get a 5+ ward with them. they are more of a counterpunch unit then an offensive one like the book version. they could be good to stand on a point and dare the enemy to charge them as they get anti charge +1 rend and strike first when charged if your fury level is high enough.

Reactive move, surge and heroic intervention

So i believe that these three should be able to work together as they are all in different phases.

​

Reactive move doesn't have prevent another move this turn.

​

Surge moves says that you can't move again this phase.

​

Heroic intervention doesn't also have any wording that you prevents it from being used if move this turn.

​

So if i have cato sicarius with some victrix guard if the opponent get's within 8 inches i can move 6 inches in any direction. Then if i am shot and it kills a model i can move d6 to the closest unit (hopefully not the one you just walked away from) and after that if i am not in engagement range then for 2cp (or 1cp with cato's discount) i can declare a Charge to a unit to a max 6 inches away.

​

If all goes according to plan i can move a maximum of 18 inches during the opponent's turn.

​

This list uses of the -1 to wound while on objectives across the army to make pretty beefy squads. victrix guard and company heroes also have -1 to wound already so would help if the enemy has +1 to wound. It also utilizes the buffs from the libarius conclave with 3 units for pyromancy for the libarian with sternguard or biomancy for 2 extra inches of movement for tigurius and the wardens. It also has avenging avatar for more battleshock checks when enemies are below starting strength in a 9 inch aura which i had the points leftover for.

​

1 thing i am not sure one is i should attach to tigurius a bladeguard ancient for the extra oc or a Lieutenant for better damage. You want to control the objective to get the -1 to wound and otherwise the squad would only be 8 oc. With the ancient it is now 16 oc.

​

The other thing is if i need the Eradicators with Heavy bolters or if i should take them or put 3 more bladeguard with titus and the wardens. The eradicators would give me another action monkey and help with dealing with skirmishers while the bladeguard would make the squad hit harder and tankier.

11th still gladius/blades of ultramar?

With gladius and blades of ultramar being 3dp and having priority assests as a force disposition is it still the best way to run. Priority assests require a lot of actions to be done and hurts pretty elite armies. I think that reclamation force might be better as it is 2dp and has take and hold as it's force disposition which doesn't have many actions to do. You could combine it with librarius conclave to get the very powerful sternguard brick and wardens of ultramar become stronger at it also has a psyker in it. +2 move and +2 charge from biomancy and furious dedication can offset not having advance and charge and calgar still gives his squad advance and charge.

list of space marine dispositions and detachment costs

courtesy of tabletop tactics with their faction focusses on their subscription website

these aren't all the detachments that space marines can run and if there isn't a dp next to it then they didn't mention it as either being able to combine with another 1dp detachment.

these are subject to change

When gw uploads the rest i will update this with those as well but this should be most of it.

Ventris and wardens nerfed

Ventris +1 cp aura is now only once per turn instead of always on.

Wardens of ultramar can no longer run around solo. They need to be attached to a unit as they are a support.
