Space Marine Special Rules

An ADEPTUS ASTARTES Detachment is one that only includes models with the ADEPTUS ASTARTES keyword. ADEPTUS ASTARTES Detachments gain the Company Command ability. ADEPTUS ASTARTES units the ADEPTUS ASTARTES Detachments gain the Chapter Tactics ability. Troops units in ADEPTUS ASTARTES Detachments gain the Objective Secured ability.

Chapter Tactics: All ADEPTUS ASTARTES units with this ability, and all the models in them, gain a Chapter Tactic so long as every unit in their Detachment is from the same Chapter. The tactic gained depends upon which Chapter they are from. If your Chapter does not have an associated Chapter Tactic, you must instead select Successor Tactics for them.

Angels of Death: This unit has the following abilities: And They Shall No Fear, Bolter Discipline, Shock Assault, and Combat Doctrines.

And They Shall Know No Fear: Each time a Combat Attrition test is taken for this unit, ignore any or all modifiers.

Bolter Discipline: Instead of following the normal rules for Rapid Fire weapons, models in this unit firing Rapid Fire bolt weapons make double the number of attacks if any of the following apply: The firing model’s target is within half the weapon’s maximum range. The firing model is INFANTRY (excluding Centurion models) and every model in its unit remained stationary in your previous Movement phase. The firing model is a TERMINATOR or BIKER. For the purposes of this ability, a Rapid Fire bolt weapon is any bolt weapon with the Rapid Fire type. A bolt weapon is any weapon whose profile includes the word ‘bolt’ (boltgun, bolt rifle, storm bolter, combi-bolter, hurricane bolter, etc.). Rules that apply to bolt weapons also apply to the boltgun profile of combi-weapons and and Relics that replace bolt weapons.

Shock Assault: If this makes a charge move, is charged or performs a Heroic Intervention, add 1 to the Attacks characteristic of models in this unit until the end of the turn.

Combat Doctrines: If your army is Battle-forged and if every unit from your army has this ability (excluding Servitor and Unaligned units), this unit gains a bonus (see below) depending on which combat doctrine is active for your army, as follows: During the first battle round, the Devastator Doctrine is active for your army. During the second battle round, the Tactical Doctrine is active for your army. At the start of the third battle round, select either the Tactical Doctrine or Assault Doctrine: until the end of that battle round, the doctrine you selected is active for your army. During the fourth and subsequent battle rounds, the Assault Doctrine is active for your army. Unless specified otherwise, this bonus is not cumulative with any other rules that improve the Armour Penetration characteristic of a weapon (e.g. the Storm of Fire Warlord Trait).’

Devastator Doctrine: The Armour Penetration characteristic of Heavy and Grenade weapons this model is equipped with is improved by 1 whilst this combat doctrine is active.

Tactical Doctrine: The Armour Penetration characteristic of Rapid Fire and Assault weapons this model is equipped with is improved by 1 whilst this combat doctrine is active.

Assault Doctrine: The Armour Penetration characteristic of Pistol and Melee weapons this model is equipped with is improved by 1 whilst this combat doctrine is active.

Chapter Tactics: All ADEPTUS ASTARTES units with this ability, and all the models in them, gain a Chapter Tactic so long as every unit in their Detachment is from the same Chapter. The tactic gained depends upon which Chapter they are from. If your Chapter does not have an associated Chapter Tactic, you must instead select Successor Tactics for them.
