I do find that opponents aren't quite as miffed when Kharn gets a good assault off against one of their units if he takes a few of his own with him at the same time. That said sometimes it doesn't take Kharn too long to run out of 'friends' to Betray :-)Master Jarlaxlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00164959614080260774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668255476316917252.post-15084574316055973872017-04-26T08:35:05.083+01:002017-04-26T08:35:05.083+01:00I like slow and Purposeful, its rules fit the fluf...I like slow and Purposeful, its rules fit the fluff and it confers both advantages and disadvantages.Knight of Infinite Resignationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02680099835726778306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668255476316917252.post-53463431907768086042017-04-25T21:28:16.437+01:002017-04-25T21:28:16.437+01:00Reanimation protocol is the best because crons jus...Reanimation protocol is the best because crons just keep coming backNormanSanyaproductionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13247879517835653296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668255476316917252.post-90724313686196449942017-04-25T20:38:07.440+01:002017-04-25T20:38:07.440+01:00Thanks for the comments Craig!

In terms of the special rule that most appeals to me, having just read through the main rules I would have to say the Monster Hunter one - I'm not too sure as to its gameplay efficacy, but the concept of a specialist group hunting down giant space abominations sounds really cool to me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01929905272805288287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668255476316917252.post-69291120668374541902017-04-24T01:08:11.938+01:002017-04-24T01:08:11.938+01:00My favourite special rule is Lucas the Tricksters ...My favourite special rule is Lucas the Tricksters rule where he gets to roll to remove his opponent when he dies, my friend always brings him along to games and I can never remember the rule but many a banter has been had with fully upgraded chapter masters and grand masters getting removed thanks to him!

Cult Ambush comes to mind but by itself it's actually not a great rule, you need the Cult Insurrection detachment for widespread Infiltrate, and Return to Shadows, to really make it work. Still, as system it's really amazing, and one of the most fun and fluffy ways to play an army.<br /><br />For universal special rules I'd have to say Fleet, it's one of the few rules where I really notice a difference in how the unit feels on the tabletop.Jesse Sinclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01363667921446132400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668255476316917252.post-46285520826511242732017-04-13T16:17:16.563+01:002017-04-13T16:17:16.563+01:00Vortex.

Not sure what my favourite rule is, apart from just having fun. The most 'important rule' is a good one although I know I've spent far more time looking up obscure rules just so I know the answer rather than just solve it quickly and dice off a quick 50:50 result. 40kaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763647828123242837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668255476316917252.post-68931702633320233622017-04-07T18:56:48.972+01:002017-04-07T18:56:48.972+01:00And They Shall Know No Fear.
