Raven Guard – Aethon Shaan Rules Here

Chapter Master Aethon Shaan is a straight-up assassin on the tabletop. He can use the Heroic Intervention and Rapid Ingress stratagems for 0CP, even if they were used them on a different unit this phase. Plus he’s got Deep Strike, Lone Operative, and Stealth. Pinning this guy down with ranged fire is going to be nigh impossible. He’s packing a 14″ due to his Jump Pack and has Fly as well. Once he get into melee he’s going to be tearing folks to shreds with his 7 twin-linked, sustained hits 2 attacks. I mean, you can read the stat-line yourself…those Claws of Severax are no joke.

Captain Darnath Lysander Rules Here

Captain Lysander is back with a new miniature and packing the feared Fist of Dorn. It’s got Devastating Wounds for a reason! With 5 attacks at strength 10 that each do 3 Damage at AP -3, there’s new foes that can withstand an assault from Lysander. Furthermore, if you DO try to blast him with some heavy firepower check out this Icon of Obstinacy rule because that -1 to the wound roll is no joke! Plus, once per game, he can use Rampart to give himself a whopping 2+ Invulnerable save! Try chewing on that for a bit.

Both of these characters are coming to pre-order this weekend from Games Workshop. The Imperium is really stepping up their game and the Space Marines are leading the charge!
