None of these changes have rules implications and the effect of the rule remains unchanged – it is simply to match the style of rules that appear in other 9th edition publications. Stratagems have had labels applied to them (Battle Tactic, Strategic Ploy, Epic Deed, Requisition etc.) and if a rule is an aura ability, then that rule has been reworded or labelled in such a way as to make it clear it is an aura ability.In all such instances, the effect of the rules remains unchanged it is simply a style and formatting change to match how such rules are presented in other 9th edition publications. If the original rule had two separate effects, those rules have been reformatted so each individual effect is presented with its own bullet point.Such rules have been reworded, but are functionally the same. The original rule required updating as the result of rule presented in either the 9th edition of Warhammer 40,000 or the 9th edition of Codex: Space Marines, in order to function as intended with the rules and terminology presented in one of these books (Engagement Range, use of the Core keyword, etc.).In either case, the rule has been reworded to incorporate any previously published errata and clarify any raised ambiguities. The original rule contained an error, or else an ambiguity that caused us to publish an FAQ.If the wording of a previously published rule has changed, it will be due to one of the following circumstances: With the exceptions noted below, these rules have not been revised or altered since they were originally published, and no new rules have been added. Some of the rules found in this section have previously been published in Psychic Awakening: Saga of the Beast. When Codex Supplement: Space Wolves is released, all of the rules within that will then replace and supersede this entire document, at which point none of the rules here can be used. Similarly, if a Space Wolves rule from Psychic Awakening: Saga of the Beast does not feature within this document, it cannot be used. The rules presented in the 8th edition (printed 2018) version of Codex: Space Wolves are no longer supported, and cannot be used. In the meantime, this document will allow you to wage war using your Space Wolves-specific units alongside those units presented in Codex: Space Marines, as well as use a selection of Space Wolves rules that were published in Psychic Awakening: Saga of the Beast. The only rules and units that matter are the ones featured in this FAQ.Ĭodex: Space Wolves will soon be replaced with Codex Supplement: Space Wolves, and will fully integrate with the latest edition of Codex: Space Marines. This means that the 8th edition codex and Saga of the Beast (which almost no one got to really use due to covid) are now dead. The FAQ opens with a very clear and direct statement that tells us, if it’s not in this index or in the new Codex: Space Marines it is gone. The major difference is that some old models will be coming off the shelf and some new ones will be heading back there. The October FAQ has brought us a wealth of changes to get through, and while Space Wolves did not get majorly hit like Imperial Fists or get huge buffs like Dark Angels, there were a bunch of key changes – although overall we made out just fine. In this article we’re looking at The Space Wolves and the many changes to their way of life. There’s a lot to digest, so we’re poring over every word of the updates and noting what’s changed and our thoughts on what it means for the faction. In advance of the upcoming release of Codex: Space Marines and as promised, Games Workshop dropped a massive FAQ update on us today (remember when we said fifteen books needed FAQs? Turns out it was more).
