Warhammer 40K: Chapter Approved Point Change Leaks
The 2021 points update for the game is leaking out all over the place and there are a LOT of changes. Take a look.
It’s that time of year. It hasn’t quite been 1 full year since 9th Edition of Warhammer 40,000 hit the scene with the Indomitus reveal, and this week we have Chapter Approved 2021 going up for pre-order.
No one has received the book, but that that of course didn’t stop all kinds of leaks from showing up all over the internet. There are over twenty factions in the game, so we aren’t going to talk about every single thing, but instead give you a roadmap of what is breaking where, and some of the highlights of faction changes.

I Want to Believe
Remember that all of this is evolving by the hour, and the books will be on shelves this Saturday. This is no way a complete list, and more details will certainly be leaking out on the usual places this week, if the weekend’s leak tidal wave was anything to go by.
What do you think of the changes?
