Reminders

As far as I know GW haven't posted the changes to the core rules anywhere so here are the changes made to the app:

2026-07-22 CORE RULES CHANGES (from app data):

01.02.03 - Revived and Adding Models to a Unit
Add to bottom:

When a model revives, resurrects, returns or is added to an embarked unit, if that TRANSPORT has sufficient remaining transport capacity for that model, that model is returned to that unit and is embarked. Otherwise, that model is destroyed, but it does not trigger rules that apply when a model is destroyed.

05.03 - Modifying Dice Rolls
Add:

05.03.02 - Attacks Modified during Hit and Wound rolls
Some attacks may be modified as a result of the values of hit/wound rolls made for those attacks. When this happens, split those attacks into attack pools based on their new identical attack profiles. The active player can decide which attack pool to resolve first for steps 5.3 and 5.4. Once those steps have been completed for that attack pool, the active player can decide the next pool to resolve and repeat until all new attack pools are resolved.

09.07 - Fall-Back Move
Add:

09.07.01 - Desperate Escape Test
If a stratagem or ability forces a unit to make a Desperate Escape test, that unit:
-Must make one hazard roll for each model in that unit.
-Must make a battle-shock roll.

14.02 - Level Of Control
Add:

14.02.01 - Controlling an Objective at the End of a Phase At the end of each phase and turn, the first thing players do (before any other 'at the end of the phase/end of the turn' rules or abilities) is determine which objectives are controlled by which player.

18.01 - Transport Capacity
Add to bottom:

A friendly unit must be embarked within each friendly DEDICATED TRANSPORT model. At the end of this step, each friendly DEDICATED TRANSPORT model without an embarked unit is destroyed, but they do not trigger rules that are triggered when a model is destroyed.

20.01 - Placing Units In Strategic Reserves
Add:

20.01.02 - Strategic Reserves at the End of the Battle
At the end of the final turn, units in strategic reserves are destroyed, but they do not trigger rules that apply when a model is destroyed.

24.28 - [PRECISION]
Add:

24.28.01 - Precision and Devastating Wounds
Mortal Wounds inflicted by a [PRECISION] attack with the [DEVASTATING WOUNDS] ability are first applied to the CHARACTER group that was selected for those [PRECISION] attacks (if that group is not already destroyed).

24.37 - [TORRENT]
Add:

24.37.01
[TORRENT] weapons cannot have [INDIRECT FIRE] or [PRECISION].

25.04 - Fill Your Army Roster
Change towards bottom:

EPIC HEROES models cannot have be given enhancements.

Add to bottom:

If you are playing an Incursion battle, you can select a 3DP detachment as your only detachment.

Initial thoughts - which armies are left who play purge well after purge got.. well, purged? Especially in teams where you have to have a purge slot

Huge change in the July upgrade which I am not seeing anyone else talking about.

The Titans have been updated.

They now have a force disposition and so can be taken as a legal army again.

Let the Engines Walk!

(Now Just drop warhounds to 1k and reavers to 2k please)

Idk if this was posted somewhere, couldn't find it.

So they added ‘Mist-wreathed Shadow Realms: At the end of your opponent’s turn,

if this unit is unengaged, you can use this ability. If you do:

▫ Place this unit in strategic reserves.

▫ This unit can make an ingress move in your next Movement

phase (including in your first turn).’

But Lion chooses his 2 abilities in your command phase.

So now he goes up on the opponent's turn, which means, you haven't chosen your ability yet if you're second. If you're first, he only goes up on the other player's first turn, which means you can only bring him down on turn 2 anyway.

Oversight? Who knows.. at least they are acknowledging nobody really takes him anymore, though going up on enemy's end of turn is a nerf technically, since before, you could see your secondaries before deciding if you go up.

Hey all,

I gathered all the tournament results from BCP for last week, including all Tournaments with at least 20 players and 5 rounds.

All the data is here on my site:

https://warpfriends.wordpress.com/2026/07/22/40k-11th-meta-stats-from-july-20-2026-2/

Please take a look and let me know if you have any suggestions (I know the site is not pretty 😞 I focus more on the Youtube side of things) And feel free to check out my youtube video for indepth breakdown of the stats!

Thanks!

Pictures in the comments. Specifically, they only have unit compositions of 3 models listed for divergent chapters, meaning only UM and Codex compliant chapters can field the full 6. But you can still increase the model count, it just throws an error saying you have an invalid number of models in the unit.

The MFM corroborates this change.

This seems an odd choice. There is precedent for divergent armies having different max squad sizes - see Chaos Terminators capped at 5 in EC vs CSM and WE capped at 10 - but those are distinct units with different datasheet abilities and faction abilities. This is merely divergent chapters being arbitrarily restricted to a minimum model count size. Having just bought and painted 12 of the damn things for my DA, I must say I'm displeased if this is RAI. Not the end of the world, obviously, but frustrating if it's intentional and I truly don't understand the why.

Hey all,

As everyone might have noticed we have had a big patch. We did also receive a warhammer community update to explain. You can go over the PDF's yourself but this post is to show you what exactly changed inside of the app.

One of the biggest changes are the map layouts of a couple of dispositions but those are digital images I can not host here so check those out for yourselves.

According to some of my colleagues in the Warhammer 40K developers Discord ruins have also swapped/flipped/changed so take care in setting up those tables.

It is a huge one this time, so I was not able to directly verify every change with the actual app. Since the Patch Log is HUGE I had to cut it up and you can find the Faction changes in comments below.

================================================================================

Are the new boyz a great unit? Yes absolutely! but what is so bad about that? we don't have points yet or anything else to compare them to and people have been complaining about 10th being dumbed down.

Orks have already had 2 abilities and now they are at 2.5. A situational "do action while engaged" that requires you to survive 1 fight phase if you get charged first or 2 full fight phases if you charged before you get to even use that ability. Even then, what if you're not running an action heavy disposition? Priority assets for example only has you doing 1 action in all but mirror matches. Sticky is very much better than doing actions while engaged.

A once per battle +1 to hit does basically nothing for everything but rokkits. shootas hitting on 5s are not scary because they're still str 4 ap 0 dmg 1. rokkits are only gonna hit on 5s and are not the anti elite monsters they were before with the loss of blast. Just a bunch of str 4 ap 0 dmg 1 shots.

Getting lethals on charge is nice and is probably more of a side grade to losing 2 leaders more than anything. it does make them quite scary but they are also losing the +1 Attack in the waagh. And I'm sure they will get a price adjustment for all the extra weapons and the extra nob.

People have complained that 10th is too dumbed down and now that we are starting to look like older editions in complexity again people do not like it.

TLDR: People are overreacting to new things as usual

with the change to company heroes of not needing a captain attached anymore they can run solo or you can now attach a lieutenant to it. so for 150 points you get a t4, -1 to wound with 20 wounds. they also have decently good damage between melee and ranged. i think as a durable mission piece these can be pretty solid. kind of like how in 10th the wardens of ultramar were being used as cheap but durable objective holders.

Going live in fifteen minutes! Slate day is upon us, and with it jubilation and despair in equal measure. Come join the commiserations and celebrations in the chat!

Good day all! I've recently started W40k with Aeldari, and got table on my first two games due to strategy mistakes, getting overwhelmed with rules, and generally not aligning the detachment with my units constructively.

Below is a 1000pts list I've drafted, please let me know if you see any obvious oversight, or have recommendations for swaps/strategies. I'm a beginner so anything useful is welcome!

I intend to play soon against two 500pts friends' armies (likely wolves and necrons), in a pseudo 1000pts vs 1000pts matchup, with the following general directions:

• the Wraithguards and Spiritseer together in the Wave serpent, pushing to a mid-map objective, with the WG and Wave serpent obstructing to protect the Spiritseer, joined by a Wraithlord when possible, while the Serpent might go back to the guardians blob to give them shelter/mobility once they are 12 or less models (starting as 14).
• the Guardians+Farseer+Conclave (Farseer leading Conclave leading guardians) stay back and attempt to screen against deepstrike, where the Wolves will no doubt try to attack. If/when enemies get close enough to shoot the blob, I'll have them fade back for free into cover or out of assault range.
• The Wraithblades and one Wraithlord stay near ish the blob, to benefit from psyker auras and screen any incoming melees.
• The Lone Warlock skyrunner is more or less destined to die on something scary, putting a vengeful dead token on it.

ABILITIES

Ammo Runts (Once per battle, per unit): In your Shooting phase, when this unit is selected to shoot, you can use this ability. If you do, this unit's ranged attacks have +1 to Hit rolls until the end of your Shooting phase.

Tide of Muscle: In the Fight phase, if this unit made a Charge move this turn, this unit's melee attacks have [LETHAL HITS].

Never Too Busy to Fight: Being Engaged does not prevent this unit from being eligible to start an action.

-----------

Lethal hits on charge is crazy for Boyz

The change says you use a circular “foundation marker” but I saw no where that the size is mentioned.

so with the repex for codex space marines going up 25 points to 265 for the first and second version if running with the heavy laser destroyer. is it still worth it's price point or has it became so expensive that something like the gladiator lancer 160 points or ballistus dreadnought 150 points has become the better choice for anti tank shooting per points.

It feels really weird seeing this amount of keywords, abilities etc. on a simple Battleline Unit.

I have a doubles tournament this Saturday and I was wondering if I could get some advice for my list

Von Ryan’s Leapers (55 Points)

• 3x Von Ryan’s Leaper

from the I’ve come up in my head. The general idea is that the Psychophage sticks with the geneSteelers and broodLord as much as possible to male a death blob.

The two other big monsters are the main tank killers, and the Pyro sticks with the Exocrine to give it’s bonus and it’s a harvester

other than that everything else in there is either set up to be and action monkeys

any and all advice on both the list and a better potential strategy would be greatly appreciated

It existed for a big chunk of 10th and was more flavorful from memory than anything else. Why is it so much better now? What in 11th changes its effectiveness?

2,000 point Gladius Advice

Howdy, I’m just getting into 40K, both models and tabletop. I’m trying to plan out my list before purchasing too many models to avoid shredding money, that being said this is my current idea and would love some tweaks, advice, tactics, anything!

I’m mostly playing casually with friends at the moment, but would love to have a tournament capable list as well so that I don’t have to spend a second fortune on models.

Thanks!

VEHICLES

Impulsor (85 Points)

Gladiator Lancer (160 Points)

Land Raider Redeemer (250 Points)

Repulsor Executioner (245 Points)

So, due to how new I am I’ve only played a couple games via tabletop sim, but the game-plan thus far has been the following:

Lancer and Repulsor executioner sit in the back and use their main guns to pick off vehicles and tankier units while sitting out of range of majority of weapons.

Grimaldus and the crusader brick march up the middle for the central objective and then sit on it

Helbrecht and his 10 sword brothers, riding in the land raider, go on a flank and mow through everything they can before pivoting and squeezing anybody who’s threatening Grimaldus in the center.

Scouts sit on a side objective and do just about nothing the entire game, I have no idea how to effectively use that unit.

Infiltrators rot on the home objective and screen off deep strikes as best they can

Emperors Champion runs with the smaller sword brethren squad, hunts down any characters that could cause trouble while trying to avoid any massive engagements they can’t win

Assault Intercessors go in the impulsor and kind of do nothing the entire game, I only really take them because I feel like I need more infantry but I don’t know how to go about it in a way that helps my army as a whole, Assault Intercessors are cheap but I feel like taking them AND the impulsor is a point pit that I get no use out of.

Thanks in advance for any advice y’all could give me!
