About this deal

Before you start highlighting, paint the white of the eyes with Rakarth Flesh (you can correct any mistakes you made by re-applying Darkoath Flesh). To enhance the shading and add depth to your Blade Champion, apply washes to the appropriate areas. For example, use Nuln Oil for metallic parts, Agrax Earthshade for brown and leather areas, or Carroburg Crimson for red surfaces. Apply the wash selectively, ensuring it settles into recesses and crevices. Unlike other members of the Adeptus Custodes, Blade Champions don't take part in the Blood Games that constantly test the matchless defences of the Imperial Palace -- their duty is to train relentlessly to perfect their skills as a warrior. The old adage that the best defence is a good offence is exemplified by the Blade Champions, for they protect the Master of Mankind through their ability to defeat any threat, no matter what form it takes.

Ancestry Feats Level 5In addition to the ancestry feat you started with, you gain an ancestry feat at 5th level and every 4 levels thereafter. The list of ancestry feats available to you can be found in your ancestry’s entry in Chapter 2. And that’s not all. Each Shield Host has its own stratagem, such as the Aquilan Shield Host’s ability to close ranks around vulnerable characters – perfect for keeping those slightly squishier Sisters of Silence characters alive. These sprues give you multiple ways to build the Champion, with double-hand and dual-wielding options (the main sword is the same size – whether you choose to wield it single or double-handed). Behemor - Its clinical strikes, prevent even the toughest hide or armored hull to withstand the Champions' blows. [2]

Oath: Oaths add an additional tenet to your code. You can usually have only one feat with this trait. Roleplaying the Champion During Combat Encounters...You confront enemies in hand-to-hand combat while carefully positioning yourself to protect your allies. Conservi - Conservai emphasises seeing the bigger strategic picture over and above the slaughter of enemies. If every unit from your army has the ADEPTUS CUSTODES keyword (excluding ANATHEMA PSYKANA, AGENT OF THE IMPERIUM and UNALIGNED units), and every unit that is assigned to a shield host is assigned to the same shield host, this unit can use this ability and the following rules apply. Legendary Armor Level 17You shield yourself with steel as easily as with faith. Your proficiency ranks for light, medium, and heavy armor, as well as for unarmored defense, increase to legendary.

Points for Adeptus Custodes Blade Champion

I wanted my Blade Champion to represent a certain celebrity as featured in a recent video game adaptation. I suspect this was GW’s intention if you look at the name they’ve used for the character in Shadow Throne, Aristothes Carvellan. Adeptus Custodes Blade Champion by Crab-stuffed Mushrooms The Genestealer Cults have found their way to the heart of the Imperium, and when such a threat to the Emperor rears its head the elite Adeptus Custodes will stop at nothing to stamp it out. In Downtime...You spend much of your time in solemn prayer and contemplation, rigorous training, charity work, and fulfilling the tenets of your code, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t time to take up a craft or hobby. What’s more, the ranged profile of the sentinel blade has been improved to match the damage output of the guardian spears – after all, they fire the same masterwork ammunition. Calistus is the perfect opener, a light aperitif with notes of sustained gunfire. You can choose to get up-close and personal by boosting your Advance rolls or to lay a withering barrage as you approach.

The Adeptus Custodes are the guardians of the God-Emperor Himself, each a magnificent warrior with martial skills renowned across the Imperium and rightly feared by their enemies. To join the ranks of the Blade Champions is an honour beyond measure – one earned by defeating the mightiest foes in battle time and again. Initial ProficienciesAt 1st level, you gain the listed proficiency ranks in the following statistics. You are untrained in anything not listed unless you gain a better proficiency rank in some other way.In each of your Command phases, so long as one is available, you must select one ka’tah stance to become active for your army. Each time you do so, units from your army with this ability benefit from it until the start of your next Command phase. When selecting a ka’tah stance to become active, the following rules apply: x3 Head Options: Within the kit, you have the flexibility to choose from three different head options for your Blade Champion. Two of these heads are bare, each portraying a distinct expression—a stoic expression and a gritted teeth expression. The third head option features a plumed helmet, adding a touch of regal splendor to your model. This variety allows you to personalize your Blade Champion according to your aesthetic preferences or the narrative of your army. Dacatarai - This aggressive fighting style has been adapted by the Custodes to deal with hordes of foes who vastly outnumber them. These are two interesting ones if you need a bunch of movement to either secure objectives or to just get to your opponent! Class FeaturesYou gain these features as a Champion. Abilities gained at higher levels list the levels at which you gain them next to the features' names. Your Level

Juggernaut Level 9Your body is accustomed to physical hardship and resistant to ailments. Your proficiency rank for Fortitude saves increases to master. When you roll a success on a Fortitude save, you get a critical success instead. We saw rumors about the entire army being able to Heroically Intervene, but this is pretty close so we’ll give the rumor a thumbs up. Then they gain some decent defense against small arms fire. Armor Expertise Level 7You have spent so much time in armor that you know how to make the most of its protection. Your proficiency ranks for light, medium, and heavy armor, as well as for unarmored defense, increase to expert. You gain the armor specialization effects of medium and heavy armor. Offer praise to the Many-armed Emperor, dear child, for he has delivered a tome full of new and updated rules for the Genestealer Cults. Infiltrate a planet’s key institutions and ready your cult for the Day of Ascension with thematic Crusade rules, and ambush your prey with updated units and new abilities. Steed Ally: You gain a young animal companion as a mount. Ordinarily, your animal companion is one that has the mount special ability, such as a horse. You can select a different animal companion (GM's discretion), but this ability doesn't grant it the mount special ability.Using a lighter shade of your base colors, gently apply highlights to the raised areas of the armor and other surfaces. This technique adds depth and brings out the details. For example, if you used Mephiston Red as the base for the clothing, you can highlight with Evil Sunz Scarlet or Wild Rider Red. Unless you’re one of the galaxy’s supernal warriors, you can expect to be casually swatted aside by an Emperor’s Champion as he bestrides the battlefield like a god of war in search of foes worthy of his sword.
