Dark Angels

This ability is described in full in the Army Rules section of Codex: Space Marines.

• If an ADEPTUS ASTARTES unit has a second Faction keyword on its datasheet, that Faction keyword is the name of that unit’s Chapter. For example, Asmodai has both the ADEPTUS ASTARTES and DARK ANGELS Faction keywords, and is therefore from the Dark Angels Chapter.
• You cannot include units from more than one Chapter in your army.

Designer’s Note: The rules presented in this section assume that the ADEPTUS ASTARTES units in your army are from the Dark Angels Chapter, but they can also be used to represent any Dark Angels successor Chapter, such as one described in the background section of this book, or even one of your own invention. However, players who wish to faithfully recreate the Dark Angels Chapter on the tabletop should only include DARK ANGELS EPIC HEROES if their collection is intended to represent the First Founding Chapter itself; Ezekiel is the Chief Librarian of the Dark Angels, for example, and not of any of their successors.

The following ADEPTUS ASTARTES units gain the RAVENWING keyword if they are drawn from the Dark Angels Chapter:

• MOUNTED units
• VEHICLE units that can FLY

The following ADEPTUS ASTARTES units gain the DEATHWING keyword if they are drawn from the Dark Angels Chapter:

• TERMINATOR units
• BLADEGUARD ANCIENT, BLADEGUARD VETERAN SQUAD, STERNGUARD VETERAN SQUAD and VANGUARD VETERAN SQUAD WITH JUMP PACKS units
• LAND RAIDER, LAND RAIDER CRUSADER, LAND RAIDER REDEEMER, REPULSOR and REPULSOR EXECUTIONER units
• DREADNOUGHT units

If your Army Faction is ADEPTUS ASTARTES, at the start of your Command phase, select one unit from your opponent’s army. Until the start of your next Command phase, that enemy unit is your Oath of Moment target. Each time a model with this ability makes an attack that targets your Oath of Moment target:

• You can re-roll the Hit roll.
• If you are using a Codex: Space Marines Detachment and your army does not include one or more units with the BLACK TEMPLARS, BLOOD ANGELS, DARK ANGELS, DEATHWATCH or SPACE WOLVES keywords, add 1 to the Wound roll as well.

• If an ADEPTUS ASTARTES unit has a second Faction keyword on its datasheet, that Faction keyword is the name of that unit’s Chapter. For example, Marneus Calgar has both the ADEPTUS ASTARTES and ULTRAMARINES Faction keywords, and is therefore from the Ultramarines Chapter.

• You cannot include units from more than one Chapter in your army.

• If your army includes one or more BLACK TEMPLARS units, it cannot include any ADEPTUS ASTARTES PSYKER models, and cannot include any of the following models that do not have the Black Templars keyword: GLADIATOR LANCER; GLADIATOR REAPER; GLADIATOR VALIANT; IMPULSOR; REPULSOR; REPULSOR EXECUTIONER.

• If your army includes one or more SPACE WOLVES units, it cannot include any of the following units: APOTHECARY; DEVASTATOR SQUAD; TACTICAL SQUAD.

DEATHWATCH

• Your army can include ADEPTUS ASTARTES DEATHWATCH units, but it cannot include any ADEPTUS ASTARTES units drawn from any other Chapter.
• With the exception of KILL TEAM CASSIUS (see Legends: Agents of the Imperium), your army cannot include any AGENTS OF THE IMPERIUM DEATHWATCH units.
• Your army cannot include any of the following units: ASSAULT SQUAD; ASSAULT SQUAD WITH JUMP PACKS; ATTACK BIKE SQUAD; DEVASTATOR SQUAD; LAND SPEEDER STORM; RELIC TERMINATOR SQUAD; SCOUT BIKE SQUAD; SCOUT SQUAD; SCOUT SNIPER SQUAD; TACTICAL SQUAD; TERMINATOR ASSAULT SQUAD; TERMINATOR SQUAD.
