Warhammer 40k - Adeptus Custodes Captain General Trajann Valoris

Product Information

One or more units from your army can start to perform this action at the end of the Move Units step of your Movement phase if they are within 1" of a Hatchway. This action can be performed by any unit that is not within Engagement Range of any enemy models, even if that unit is being affected by a rule that would normally prevent it from performing actions. The action is completed at the end of your Movement phase if no enemy models are within 1" of that Hatchway. If there are any enemy models within 1" of that Hatchway, your opponent can attempt to prevent the action from being completed. If they do so, roll off with your opponent; each player adds the Strength characteristic of one of their models that is within 1" of that Hatchway to their respective scores. If you win, the action is completed; otherwise, the action fails. If completed, that Hatchway opens (if it was closed) or closes (if it was open). All of the weapons carried by the Talons of the Emperor are masterworks, with powerful ranged weapons often built into the hafts of their swords and spears. Even amongst these relics, though, the Executioner Greatblades carried by Vigilators are doom incarnate for enemy psykers, and can rend through sorcerous wards as if they were nothing but air. It’s safe to say that, if you love the modelling aspect of Warhammer 40k, then the Adeptus Custodes are your dream army. They offer almost limitless opportunities for customisation and developing your own paint schemes, and each model tells a story through their sculpting.

Though the Captain-General traditionally only served as one of the High Lords of Terra under the most dire of circumstances, as during the War of the Beast, the fervent persistence of Chancellor Lev Tieron persuaded Valoris to take the seat left open by Lord Brach. Tieron had hoped that Valoris would serve as the High Lords' deciding vote to abolish the Lex Imperialis, which would allow the Custodes to leave Terra and fight against the Despoiler's forces [1a], but the Captain-General disagreed with this. He was about to vote no against the abolition and defeat the measure when pandemonium broke out as word of Cadia's destruction reached the High Lords' chambers. [1b] Later it is revealed that Valoris had been quietly preparing the Custodes for war for some time and had possibly issued a summons for the reformation of the Sisters of Silence years in advance, making it suspect that his objection might have been a ploy to avoid tensions with the High Lords. [1e]Lord Commander of the Segmentum Solar • Lord Commander Militant • Lord High Admiral • Cardinal(s) of the Holy Synod of Terra • Abbess Sanctorum • Captain-General • Chancellor of the Estate Imperium • Speaker for the Chartist Captains • Lord Constable

The Chessmaster: Valoris, Fadix and Guilliman orchestrated the events of The Regent's Shadow to get rid of the traitorous High Lords. Champion of the Imperium: Friendly ADEPTUS CUSTODES INFANTRY, BIKER, and DREADNOUGHT units within 12″ of your Warlord at the start of your opponent’s Charge phase can Heroically Intervene. This is Trajann’s required trait. A solid trait and a great way to make your army into a solid deathball that can’t be charged – important in 9th where melee is powerful and key f Buried under hordes of teeming alien chaff ? The Dacatarai Stance will blend them up in moments. Charged by some optimistic but towering brutes ? Adopt the Kaptaris Stance and parry their clumsy swings, then enter Rendax Stance in your turn to slice through their armoured hides. It really is that easy to become the undisputed master of the Fight phase. Canon Immigrant: Aleya and Valoris were eventually made into miniatures in the Warhammer 40K tabletop game, with rules that preserve their Bash Siblings dynamic.For most of 8th edition the Adeptus Custodes were firmly at the bottom of the pile, flaming out hard after a brief initial run when their codex first launched and spamming Vertus Praetors was the flavour of the month. A few players saw moderate success with them, and for another brief period the Caladius Grav-tank was everywhere thanks to being extremely undercosted for its capabilities, but they spent more of the time at the bottom than at the top and had a very low win-rate, particularly as a pure army. Once you select a stance of a different martial ka’tah, you cannot select a stance of a previous martial ka’tah. Hand Signals: As a Sister of Silence, Aleya communicates with others through thoughtmark, a form of sign language. All this has combined into some excellent performances. Custodes lists have regularly shown up in our Competitive Innovations series, and they’ve made appearances in top 4s every month of the edition so far. If you’re looking for a time to play Custodes, it is right now. You must complete all your Endeavours within nine games of claiming Magisterium Lex Ultima. If you fail, you will be forced to select a Dishonour, the Custodes equivalent of being told your eyes are too big for your tummy. One example is Petition the Tower of Hegemon.
