New Chaos Space Marine Codex Review - Bullet Format

No long winded paragraphs. Here are my thoughts on what I think you might care about in easy to read one liners.

  • Helbrute = Chaos Dreadnought. The Chaos Dreadnought is gone but the Helbrute is for all intents the same.
  • Khorne Berzerkers, Thousand Sons, Plague Marines, and Noise Marines are all elite choices.
    • Can be taken as troops if you take the appropriate character.
  • No Legion specific rules except for the above 4 units and the usual Marks of Chaos, but no rules for Alpha Legion, Iron Warriors, Night Lords, Red Corsairs, etc.
  • No Cypher even though he's on GW site as an HQ choice for ordering (2 to 3 week despatch? possible clue?)
  • Chaos Cultists are troops and can take Marks of Chaos just like standard Chaos Space Marines
  • Chaos Spawn are a Fast Attack choice. 1 to 5 per squad at 30 pts each.
  • All rules and wargear updated appropriately in line with the new generation of the main rules.
  • No drop pods.
  • Fold out reference pages in very back
