The God of War is back!
1) Iron Resolve – Most Characters have this as thier warlord trait. Gives Feel No Pain!
2) Storm of Fire – Warlord trait now makes one squad’s weapons ‘Rending’ once per game within 12″

4) A Squad of there Vindicators can combine their shots into one Apocalypse Blast, that gains Ignore Cover! – BOOM!

8) The Shield Eternal remains unchanged.
9) Librarus Conclave – allows you to cast psychic power on a 2+ if you’re within 12″ of other librarians in the formation. In addition each librarian knows the same powers if within 12″ as well. Tigarius can be included in this formation.

I love the smell of promethium in the morning…
Overall seems like the Marines are more upgunned and ready to take on the threats to the 7th Edition head on now!
Super friends seems unaffected by the new book, and some staples went evendown in price. Expect to see a ton of psychic and centruion heavy lists in the short term as these are clearly the easiest combos to make now!
