Codex: Imperial Agents - What do you guys think?

I was really looking forward to this book, it looked initially like all my favourite factions were getting some spit and polish. But honestly, after looking through, this codex seems horribly rushed and poorly thought out.

I've listed some of the issues I can see below, but what do you guys think? Is there anything praise worthy in this book?

• The latest FAQ stated you cant put a unit in an allied transport, so what's the point of taking a Imperial Navy Valkyrie? Are people honestly going to pay 125 points for a flying multilaser?

• The 'Psykana Division', does this replace the OTHER Psykana division that exists in Mont'Ka or are there now two divisions with the same name? Some clarity would be nice. Also the new version is worse, thanks GW.

• What exactly is the point of a Ecclesiarchy Battle Conclave? The only unit that benefits at all is arco-flagellants, and even then all they gain is a 6++ save....hooray?

• The Adepta Sororitas badly needed an update in general, this is not it. Instead saint celestine has been removed for reasons that are a mystery to everyone.

• There is one thing that the Adepta Sororitas update adds, but it doesn't help the sisters of battle. It gives you a formation thats one HQ unit. So expect everyone to spam priests in every imperial army from now on. For 25 points you can add a priest to a unit, gaining fearless, hatred, and war hymns, and you dont have to go unbound yo do it. Theres no upper limit to how many formations you can have as far as I'm aware, so expect power gamers to add these guys in to every unit. Why would anyone ever take a Space Marine Chaplin again?

• The Deathwatch Kill team in this book is slightly better (in my opinion) than any of the formations in the deathwatch codex itself, because its the same as the Aquila formation without the downside of having to mix and match unit types.

• The office Assassinorum is a carbon copy of the rules that have been printed in Mont'Ka, in the board game, and in white dwarf. Which is consistent at least, but if your not going to update the rules why reprint them again? I would have loved to see a slight point reduction as I feel the assassins in general are slightly over costed. A new formation would not have gone a miss either. But this is just a personal gripe, theres nothing actually wrong with this section.

• The inquisition formation now comes with a bonus warlord trait. Which means for 250 points you can take 10 'inquisitorial representative' formations, each with a single inquisitor in them and take 10 warlord traits. There are so many problems with this, for starters, do they stack? Lets sat you manage to roll 6 times on Strategic and get 'divide to conquer' every time, does that mean the opponents reserve rolls are at a -6 and therefore never come on? Even if they dont stack I think this is ripe for abuse.

• Inquisition forces have lost access to land raiders, glad I spent all that time painting mine up. Yay.

• Needle pistol is now AP6, making it pretty worthless for the points

• The Inquisitorial Henchmen Warband formation is odd, and I'm not sure it does anything the old henchmen warband didn't do, with the exception of the ability to bring an allied Deathwatch/Sisters/Grey Knight unit depending on which inquisitor you use. This is pointless for the deathwatch, as you could just take them as a faction in this book anyway at no tax.

• Inquisitorial relics have now been locked to each type of inquisitor (Liber Heresius can only be taken by Ordo Hereticus for example) makes sense fluff wise but rather annoying for list building. Also would it have killed GW to give us some more relics?

A codex (often pluralised as codexes by Games Workshop, though the grammatically correct pluralisation is codices), ^[1] in the Warhammer 40,000 tabletop wargame, is a rules supplement containing information concerning a particular army, environment, or worldwide campaign.

Codexes for particular armies were introduced for the second edition of the game. The third edition rendered these obsolete, and a new series began, including introducing codexes for battlezones and campaigns. Until superseded by newer versions, the 3rd edition and later codexes remained valid for the newer editions of Warhammer 40,000. Games Workshop no longer produce campaign or battlezone codexes, instead releasing 'expansions'. 'Codex' is now a term solely used for army books.

The rules for all models from 7th Edition onwards have been produced as datasheets. These are normally a concise page containing all the necessary rules for a model or unit. A complete and comprehensive list detailing all the datasheets available for each faction is available on the Datasheet (Warhammer 40,000) Wikipedia page.

The introduction of 8th edition saw a large rules overhaul, and all prior codexes were rendered obsolete. On release, 8th edition introduced Indexes to introduce rules for all their armies, before again eventually releasing individual codexes. As with before 8th edition, codexes remain valid until superseded by newer versions (currently the oldest valid codex is Codex: Space Marines - 8th Edition).

All codexes 6th Edition and prior contained:

• Background - Information about the force and its place in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. This includes artwork, short stories, and copies of fictional documents from the future.
• Bestiary - A description of the units, characters and vehicles that can be chosen for use in a battle. This includes their characteristic values, information on their weapons, and any limitations on their use, as well as background information on the unit. The army's special psychic powers (if any) and wargear is also listed here, showing the rules for each item, as well as any legendary artifacts the army may use.
• Hobby section - Information on collecting, building and painting an army from the codex. This features outstanding example models painted by veteran hobbyists and Games Workshop's'Eavy Metal team.
• Army list - The items in the bestiary are arranged by type and given a points value, with more powerful units costing more points, so that battles are fought between balanced armies. Options are also given here along with their cost.

For 7th Edition Games Workshop overhauled the basic codex layout, 8th edition continued the same layout as such:

• Background - Information about the force and its place in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. This includes artwork, short stories, and copies of fictional documents from the future - (The same style as before).
• Showcase - This is the old Hobby Section that now contains just pictures of the Citadel Miniatures; painted by Games Workshop's 'Eavy Metal team.
• Army List - This contains datasheets for every unit and a wargear list.
  In 7th edition datasheets contained the complete rules and points values needed to field a unit and a picture of the model from the Citadel Miniatures range, along with a description of the unit, as per the old bestiary.
  In 8th edition a datasheet contains the complete rules for fielding a unit including power level and keywords. The points for matched play have been moved from the datasheet to the Appendix.
• Appendix - In 7th edition this contained a complete, detailed list of all the army's weapons, special rules, psychic powers, warlord traits and any detachments or tactical objectives it may have. It also contains a quick reference sheet at the very back.
  In 8th edition this became: weapon profiles, battle-forged rules (such as subfaction traits and stratagems), warlord traits, relics, psychic powers, tactical objectives and finally matched play points values for units and weapons.

Rules for models produced by Forgeworld are available as part of the Imperial Armour series of books, also published by Forgeworld.

Current Books[edit]

Army Codexes[edit]

The range of codexes is regularly updated with new editions of armies and occasionally new army codexes. However, all codexes prior editions of Warhammer 40,000 are still valid in the current edition, unless a later version has replaced it. Upon the launch of 8th Edition, all codexes 7th Edition and prior were invalidated due to a rules overhaul and therefore incompatibility. On launch they were replaced with Indexes to provide compatible rules.

8th Edition[edit]

8th Edition was released in June 2017.

Expansions[edit]

Expansions for Warhammer 40,000 provide alternative ways to play the game. With the release of 8th Edition, all 7th Edition codexes and expansions were rendered obsolete. Four of the most popular expansions were rereleased in the main rulebook upon launch. These are Planetstrike, Cities of Death, Stronghold Assault & Death from the Skies.
