Genestealer Cults and Deathwatch Rules


Warhammer World is continuing its campaign event Vidar's Fate on June 22-23rd in Nottingham. There are several interesting things about this campaign, and that is first of all that armies can be chosen from any codex or Imperial Armour book or 40k approved units. The second of course is there are rules in the campaign for Genestealer Hyrbrids and Deathwatch units (called "Imperius Reavers Alien Hunters")



Could these be in the future for 40k? Of course we all hope something could be in the works, so lets take a look at what is being presented for the rules of these units.

Genestealer Hybrids
WS4 BS3 S3 T3 W1 I3 A2 Ldr 8 Sv 5+
comes mostly with autoguns and heavy stubber options

Magus
WS3 BS3 S3 T3 W2 I5 A2 Ldr8 Sv5+
the magus is a level 2 psyker that gets the powers dominate and puppet master automatically

The Imperius Reaver Alien Hunters (Deathwatch) are very much standard marine stats, with a gun called a Hypnoth pattern bolter which comes with can fire standard rounds, or a Hypnoth round S3 Ap- 18" Assault 1 blast.
