Journal Tactica: Ancient Rites and Forgotten Heroes
By Jackson Green
Restores battlefield roles, Rites of War, unit profiles, and wargear from prior editions, adapted for the 3rd edition Age of Darkness ruleset. Detachments carry the [Ancient Rite] tag: an army may field multiple [Ancient Rite] detachments, but all must share the same name.
Contents
- Category: restored content
- Detachments: 11 ([Ancient Rite] tagged, restored battlefield roles and Prime Advantages)
- Sky Hunter Phalanx, Orbital Assault, Zone Mortalis Assault Force, Underworld Assault, Drop Pod Assault, Fury of the Ancients, Pride of the Legion, Angel's Wrath, Abhorrent Augmentations
- Restored characters: Primus Nullificator, Farith Redloss (Dark Angels), Iron-Father Autek Mor (Iron Hands), Tsolmon Khan (White Scars), Gahlan Surlak (World Eaters)
- Restored units: Nullificator Squad
- Restored wargear: Aether-shock Maul, Hexagrammatic Wards, plus Breacher and Veteran Despoiler squad options
- Play style: legacy restoration, cross-legion
- Points range: any
Compatibility
- Replaces: restored content: rites of war
- Requires: nothing
- Do not use alongside another set that replaces "restored content: rites of war". The [Ancient Rite] detachments here are self-consistent but conflict with any other rites-of-war restoration.
