In the 8th Edition of Warhammer 40k, we saw the Adeptus Custodes come into their own as a fighting force. With new models, new characters, and new rules, they became far more than a diversion from Space Marines; they became something that stands alone, with a unique golden flavour.Now, in 9th Edition, they’re even more refined, benefiting from many rule changes in the newer version of Warhammer 40k, andmaking an appearance in somecompetitive lists. However you like to play, you’ll find Relics that support your strategies and being able to take two of them** in your army opens up some real tactical flexibility. Adeptus CustodesAn ADEPTUS CUSTODES Detachment is one that only includes models with the ADEPTUS CUSTODES keyword (excluding models with the ANATHEMA PSYKANA, AGENT OF THE IMPERIUM or UNALIGNED keywords).True to their revered and ancient origins as the Emperor’s original praetorians, the Adeptus Custodes are an elite army, featuring few named characters. In the current Edition of Warhammer 40k, there are only three characters available to Adeptus Custodes armies – and, technically, one of those characters isn’t really a member of the Adeptus Custodes at all.

This warlord excels in directing fast and deadly offensives designed to close rapidly with the enemy, overwhelming the foe with a devastating concentration of force.At the start of your Charge phase, select one friendly SOLAR WATCH INFANTRY unit within 6" of this WARLORD. Until the end of the phase, that unit is eligible to charge in a turn in which it Advanced. This might not seem like a huge deal at first, but it’s the most expensive points upgrade – and for good reason.

Codex: Adeptus Custodes Jack Harpster’s Competitive Review of Codex: Adeptus Custodes

Vigil Unending gives your Characters one last chance to punish anyone that intends harm to the Imperium, bringing their Emperor-wrought might to bear against any who think they can go toe-to-toe with the Emperor’s finest. The release was somewhat delayed, as it had been scheduled to drop alongside the new Genestealer Cults codex in 2021, at the same time as the Shadow Throne battle box(which pitted those two factionsagainst one another). Example: Every model in Emily’s army has the ADEPTUS CUSTODES keyword. She selects Rendax as her primary ka’tah, Dacatarai as her secondary ka’tah and Calistus as her tertiary ka’tah. In her first command phase, she selects Rendax stance 2 to be active. This device brings light to the most impenetrable of darknesses, its magnificent gleam so bright that it can strike down foes. EMISSARIES IMPERATUS model only.And that’s not all. Each Shield Host has its own stratagem, such as the Aquilan Shield Host’s ability to close ranks around vulnerable characters – perfect for keeping those slightly squishier Sisters of Silence characters alive.

Each time an enemy PSYKER unit is destroyed, place a Great Tithe marker as close as possible to where the last model in that enemy unit was removed from the battlefield. Add 1 to a unit’s Great Tithe tally each time it successfully completes the following action: A counter-intelligence device that twists and distorts electromagnetic signals, arae-shrikes are considered blasphemous in principle and arcane function by the Adeptus Mechanicus, and persist only in the hands of the Emperor's retinue. By the use of malifica-djinn and hostile blight-code, they pervert data-readouts with lying reports and malign falsehoods, and what they cannot deceive, they simply blind and deafen with a shrieking multi-frequency cacophony.
