I really like all the new unique units, though it seems these two new traitor terminators may be my favorite in terms of rules. Conversion beamer on terminators sounds sweet, though it seems they should be taking advantage of the high ws

Big thanks for all the info Brother Garrod! You deserve a commendation

[Tyrendian]

wow the AdMech stuff is appropriately painful... those guns hurt! great stuff!

[Brother Garrod]

Big thanks for all the info Brother Garrod! You deserve a commendation

Not a problem , I know a huge number of people can't get to events like this ( due to various factors) and waiting for the rules can be painful

[desert_hack]

Thanks for this. Have you got the actual statlines for the mechanicus stuff? Sorry to be demanding. Mechanicus player and the anticipation is killing me.

[Tyrendian]

Not a problem , I know a huge number of people can't get to events like this ( due to various factors) and waiting for the rules can be painful

recognising that and doing something about it by taking the time to do a massive writeup like this are two very different things though - thanks a lot!
