A Warband of Tzeentch must always contain a Sorcerer or can pay the points for a Sorcerer but instead give their Warlord the Magic Special rule. If a Warlord is a Sorcerer he will generate two magic Dice. So a Warband led by a Tzeentch Sorcerer Warlord would Generate 3 Magic Dice.

Additionally a Tzeentch Sorcerer Warlord can choose to either pick three spells for any of the Lore’s of magic or all the Spells from a single Lore.

Prince of Excess: Slaanesh is the prince of Excess and Depravity and rewards those that embrace those ideals.

Some SAGA Abilities will reward the player with Pleasure Points which are added to the Pleasure Pool. These then give you Pleasure Tokens on a depreciating scale shown below.

Slaanesh drives it’s followers to more excess, more depravity and with each step down the path of damnation more is required to feel pleasure which is represented with the diminishing returns.

Each Yellow Number reached adds a Pleasure Token to the Pool.

It is not merely the killing that stimulates the sense but relishing each second of it, each bullet impact or blade cut must be perfect

Savor the Kill (1-3, 4-5 or 6)
Melee or Shooting

Perform the attack as normal but only a single enemy model may be removed as a casualty regardless of how much damage is done.

Instead for each unsaved hit that would result in a model being removed from the unit gain Two Pleasure Points.

Unbridled Excess (1-3 and 4-5)
Melee or Melee/Reaction

Melee or Melee/Reaction

Select an enemy unit in melee and force them to discard attack dice equal to your Pleasure Tokens

To take aim at the followers of Slaanesh is to receive but a taste of their full glory and depravity before the trigger is pulled

Just a Taste (1-3 or 4-5)
Shooting/Reaction

Gain Two Defence Dice

At the End of the Shooting Attack the attacking unit takes as many fatigue as your unit has.

Occasionally the Followers of Slaanesh may become fixated on the sheer scale of the excess and perfection surrounding them and fall into a pleasure trance that makes them useless to their leaders but gives off an aura that drives their comrades on even further than any drug

Lost in Pleasure (1-3, 4-5 or 6)
Melee

Remove 1-3 Warriors or Hearthguard Models from the unit.

Gain Three Attack Dice for each model removed (4 each if you used a 6).

The Eagle Eyed Among you will have noticed that the Genestealer Cults have only 8 SAGA Abilities rather than the Usual 10.

Genestealer Cults can be roughly split down into Four Major Types. if anyone can think of any other major types they’d like to see comment below and I’ll see what I can do. These are designed to add a little flavour to the list rather than a total overhaul.

The Hive Cult

The Hive Cult – The Hive Cult’s are those who have emerged from the sprawling Hive’s of the Imperium. They are the Bureaucrats, menials and workers who take up arms to fight for the Cult.

A Mining Cult gains the “At Home in a Hive” and “Masters of Concealment” Battleboard Abilities

Cover is no protection again Cultists who have spent their entire existence in the claustrophobic confines of a hive where shooting at targets in cover is the norm.

At Home in a Hive (1-3 or 4-5)
Shooting

Activate a Unit to shoot. The enemy do not gain any bonus’s from cover.

If the enemy is not in cover instead gain two attack dice.

Living among so many people forces Hive Cults to be even more secretive and as such they develop a keen ability to move and strike unseen

Masters of Concealment (4-5 + 6)
Activation

Your Unit in Ambush is immediately placed on the table and may make a shooting attack or charge, no fatigue is placed on this unit.

An enemy unit that takes any casualties from this ability also takes a point of fatigue.

If no unit is in ambush then choose two enemy units within M, they both gain a fatigue.

The Mining Cult

The Mining Cult – The Cults that emerge in the mining world and communities of the Imperium are experts at moving over terrain and stockpile large arsenals of everything from simple blasting sticks to earthshaking mining charges.

A Mining Cult gains the “Hidden Explosives” and “Masters of Movement” Battleboard Abilities

Mining Installations of the 41st Millennium use so much explosives that a stick here or a detonation charge there does not even register, with stealth, bribes and a few decades a Cult can amass quite the arsenal.

Hidden Explosives (1-3 or 4-5)
Shooting or Melee

If shooting at a target within M your attack dice get a +1 bonus.

If in melee you can re-roll 4 attack dice but if the re-rolled dice is a ‘1’ then the unit using the explosives takes an automatic hit.

Those who dwell permanently underground amid the crags and rubble heaps are the true and unrivaled masters of movement in such environments

Masters of Movement (4-5 and 6)
Orders

Until the end of your turn all your units treat rough and dangerous terrain as open terrain.

The Ganger Cult

The Ganger Cult – The Cults that grow among the Gangs of an under hive or feral world are truly dangerous as they combine a culture of absolute violence with the mindless obedience of the Cult.

Ganger Cults have the “Despicably Dirty Fighters” and “Thunderous Charge” Battle Board Abilities

The Ganger Cultists have adopted the cunning of their Gang opponents in the under, they will wait and look for an opportunity to throw dirt in someones face or trip them before truly committing themselves to the melee

Despicably Dirty Fighters (4-5)
Melee

Reduce your armour by 1 and discard three attack dice.

Each of your opponents attack dice that does not score a hit adds an automatic hit to the hits you inflict on them.

When the Bikes of a Ganger Cult go to War their engines are amplified to intimidate the foe, on their thundering steeds the Bikers surge forward with a common purpose unheard of in the Under Hive.

Thunderous Charge (4-5 + 4-5)
Activation

Activate all your mounted units to move or charge.

Units which engage in melee using this activation get 2 bonus attack dice.

The Military Cult

The Military Cult – The Cults that infest the local PDF forces are perhaps the most destabilising. When the fighting starts the people instinctively turn to those sworn to protect them and find only the smoking barrels of lasguns and a autoguns.

Military Cults gain the “Seeds of Doubt” and “Traitors Within” Battleboard Abilities

Once the first PDF unit has turned the seeds of doubt are sewn across the planet, no man can be sure that the man men around them are not the foe and will scrutinise their allies every move

Seeds of Doubt (4-5 or 6)
Activation/Reaction

Trigger this ability after the resolution of an enemy rest action.

Place a fatigue on another unit within M of the unit which rested.

You may place fatigue on Two units if a 6 was used.

One or Two Cultists in an otherwise Loyal unit can spread chaos and confusion among the chain of command, men ordered to fire suddenly find themselves told to halt and a charge that would have ended with many dead cultists finds itself halted in it’s tracks by an anonymous man in a PDF Officer’s uniform

Traitors Within (6)
Activation/Reaction

If the targeted Unit is activated to charge or shoot and has one or more points of fatigue remove a fatigue and cancel the action.

This unit may not be activated again this turn.

Reanimation Protocols: Each Necron can reassemble itself after death and continue to fight on despite suffering grievous bodily injuries.

Keep each Necron casualty aside then at the end of the turn roll a D6 for each. Warriors will return to their unit on a 6 and all others will return to their unit on a 5+. I advise painting a number or symbol on the underside of a models base to identify it’s unit.

Those models which do not return to play are discarded and cannot make any further attempts, they’re dead.

If a unit is wiped out then no rolls can be made. If a unit of Creatures or a single model like a Hero is killed mark their position and make the roll as normal even if their unit is wiped out.

Units which are exhausted or Creatures and Single Model unit who die while exhausted cannot make rolls.

For each model returned to the unit place a fatigue token on the unit, this cannot exhaust the unit and if returning models would cause a unit to become exhausted return as many models as you can and discard the rest. A player can choose not to roll for reanimation protocols but if they do roll must abide by the results. Characters and Single models units return with two extra fatigue.

Choose a Friendly unit and immediately make a shooting attack.

If the attack causes any casualties the enemy gains one fatigue.

The Soulless Husks of the Necrons do not bother showing off in combat but rather kill as efficiently and mindlessly as they can

Activation

Activate a Unit to charge.

During the melee, your unit counts as being the defender and the opponents unit counts as being the attacker.

Special Units

Army Special Rule

Scarabs: Warriors – 1 Point – 4 Bases

Scarabs are Warrior units made up of 4 Models with the following profile

Armour 3 (3)
Aggression 1 (0)

Resilience (2)

Living Shield: Scarabs do not block line of sight or prevent units from firing through them at other units. If an enemy units fires at a Necron unit through a unit of scarabs they suffer a -1 to hit.

Interception: Scarab Unit which shields a friendly unit via the “Living Shield” Rule will lose one base for every three identical results rolled. For example if the roll was (1, 1, 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 6) then a single scarab base would be lost (Resilience may not be used but reanimation can) since Three 1’s were rolled.

Deathmarks – Warriors 1 Point

Sniper, Concealment

Sniper Rifle: Range: 2L

SNIPER: Snipers may fire at 24 Inch Range as normal but the target counts as being in one level better cover than they actually are at all ranges over L. Instead the Snipers can make a special snipe attack at range L. Roll dice as usual (no bonus’s of any kind can be used but fatigue may be used as normal) and for each 6 rolled reduce the target unit’s armour by 1 (1) for the remainder of the turn.

CONCEALMENT: This unit always counts as being in cover one level above what it is actually in.

Flayed Ones – 1 Point – Hearthguard – One Per Army
