It does feel like a rework to cash in on Horus Heresy. Equally, if more people play it will get more support. The rules set is solid and it is a very affordable game. The Legion rules are nice, some are clearly better than others. I agree a new mission would be nice, you could use some of my missions from my blog www.jongrantminiatures.com there is a nice Space Marine one 'Infiltrator Extraction'.
@Jon Grant Miniatures Started with 2x Night Lords Squadrons. 1 each Xiphons & Lightnings. Never tried painting the NL's scheme before so wanted to give it a go. Right now have them going up against Imperial Navy. Next will be Loyalist Marines. Haven't decided between Salamanders, Ultramarines or Dark Angels as of yet.
@Jon Grant Miniatures I confess, I don't think I've read the Campaign rules from this book yet. I'm thinking about setting up something set in the Thramas Crusade though. Have you played any "historical" battles from the 30k Fluff yet?
You can mix Custodes with Astartes or Diviso Aeronautica as this is stated on page 108. The Divisio Aeronuatica are a separate list from the Astartes so they cannot be used together in a Competitve game. This is stated with an or statement on page 74.
thanks for the look. Shame GW hadn't put more in it, even a new mission would have been great.

Missed opportunity on not having more missions. Still, the art looks fantastic. A very nice addition to the bookshelf 😁
It is lovely. It has got me painting some Xiphons up for the Blood Angels Legion.
I'm currently using this book for 30k battles. Makes for some good matchups. I've expanded the Marine inventory to include Lightnings however.
It is a good little book. I love the Lightning and the Xiphon. Both are excellent little fighters. Which Legion are you using in your games?

I have Night Lords, Blood Angels, Imperial FIsts, Emperor's Children and Sons of Horus. There are painting guides for all of them on my website
@Jon Grant Miniatures SWEET! Thanks Mate!

Can you mix Astartes, Navy and Custodes in a squadron?

@@jongrantminiatures thank you. Looks like I need to get a Thunderhawk then.
Do you choose mission then make lists?
@@anonymousgeoff5399 you definitely want a thunderhawk. Yes choose mission, then choose the list.
