The third reason is that while the other two Iron Warrior-specific warlord traits are good they also have big drawbacks that force the unit to do specific things like move towards an enemy. The second reason I picked this warlord trait is I get a second reaction during my opponent's shooting phase. One reason is that it is similar to the old Shatter Defences Warlord trait in that it removes cover from a piece of terrain which then also becomes difficult and dangerous for the game. The Tyrant of the Dodekathon Warlord trait is one of three Iron Warrior-specific warlords traits. He is restricted to only being on foot, though so no bike jetbike or jump pack for him. The upgrade gives the character a Servo Arm, a cortex controller, Master of Automata and Battlesmith (3+). This upgrade existed in HH 1.0 but it cost 35pts, its now only 20pts. The Warsmith upgrade for Iron Warriors is a special Preator upgrade available only to the Iron Warriors legion. Legion Cataphracti Herald – Combi-melta, Powerfist, Grenade Master-crafted Paragon Blade, Plasma Pistol, Meltabombs, Tyrant of theĭodekathon Warlord Trait, Hammer of Olympia Rite of War Warsmith (Artificer Armoured Praetor) Martok – Servo Arm, I decided not to use any of the units from any of the PDFs because I just wanted to see what I could do with the rules printed in the actual hard cover books. This is how I made my army list before the day of the game. If you watch the video on a large enough screen you can read each page of the book. I used the YouTube video reviewing the Liber Hereticus put out by Sprues and Brews to build my army list. There's a lot to talk about so let's get started. I will also have a battle report about the game we played and I want to point out some interesting things we both noticed during the game.Īt the end of this post I want to talk about my thoughts on Horus Heresy 2.0.

In this post I want to go over the army that I used, I want to comment on the two PDFs that GW recently released, and the PDF that the Eye Of Horus Podcast guys released. I intend to buy the Liber Hereticus at some point, possibly at Gen Con.

Seti brought over a box of Cataphracti Terminators which he also gave me a good deal on. I also pre-ordered the Iron Warriors dice and the White Dwarf with the Zone Mortalis rules for 2.0. I bought the rulebook from a friend of mine who bought two box sets and was kind enough to sell me one of his rule books for a good price. I have been saving money for Gen Con so I haven't bought a whole lot of HH 2.0 things. This past weekend I played my first game of Horus Heresy 2.0.
