The much-anticipated Legends of The Horus Heresy rules have arrived, opening up a realm of exciting possibilities for Warhammer 40,000 players. Now, you can incorporate miniatures from Warhammer: Horus Heresy into your Warhammer 40,000 games. In this blog post, we’ll delve into the details of this release, including the downloadable datasheets, recommended gameplay settings, and a glimpse of what’s to come.
With the introduction of Legends of The Horus Heresy, players can seamlessly merge the iconic miniatures from Warhammer: Horus Heresy with their Warhammer 40,000 collections. These legendary vehicles, still viable for matched play and Crusade games, bring a touch of nostalgia and epic battles to the tabletop. However, it’s important to note that they are not recommended for competitive tournament play, as they are intended to enhance the immersive experience rather than adhere to strict balancing requirements.
To make this crossover accessible to all, you can freely download the Legends of The Horus Heresy datasheets. The collection includes three documents: Adeptus Astartes, Heretic Astartes, and Adeptus Mechanicus. Additionally, within the Adeptus Astartes and Heretic Astartes documents, you’ll find rules for using select units in Chaos Space Marines, World Eaters, Thousand Sons, and Death Guard armies. These datasheets provide valuable insights into the units’ abilities and stats, empowering you to integrate them seamlessly into your Warhammer 40,000 battles.
While the downloadable datasheets cover a vast array of units, it’s important to note that the Adeptus Custodes and Knight Households are not included in this release. Fear not, for their rules will be unveiled in the upcoming Imperial Armour compendiums, set to be released in the near future. Furthermore, prepare for the arrival of datasheets featuring non-Heresy-era units entering the Legends of The Horus Heresy realm.
As the exciting free rules downloads for the new edition of Warhammer 40,000 draw to a close, there’s still more to look forward to. Tomorrow, the highly anticipated Boarding Actions rules will be unleashed. Brace yourself for intense, close-range duels within the claustrophobic confines of space hulks. Stay tuned for this thrilling addition, which promises to elevate the adrenaline-fueled battles to new heights.
Conclusion:
Legends of The Horus Heresy ushers in a new era of crossover gameplay, merging Warhammer: Horus Heresy miniatures with Warhammer 40,000. With the downloadable datasheets at your disposal, you can seamlessly integrate these venerable units into your battles. Remember, while these units are perfect for matched play and Crusade games, they are not intended for competitive tournaments. Explore the Legends, anticipate the upcoming Imperial Armour compendiums, and prepare for the exhilarating Boarding Actions rules. Unleash the full potential of your collection and embark on epic adventures in the grim darkness of the far future. The Horus Heresy awaits!
