    CORRECTION: Sorry the Alpha Legion 'Pick them Off' strat isn't as good as I stated. Turns out I misread slightly and it's 'full re-rolls to hit if below starting strength' and 'full re-rolls to wound if below half strength'. Apologies for the mistake there, will correct it for themain codex review.

The rest of the codex looks cool but I was looking forward getting a mass of mortal troops as horde for my CSM to lead, all robed so it would fit with the dark commune and apostles I wanted to get, and then the stuff leaked about the damned detachment which got me thinking I was about to get what I wanted! Now it feels a little pointless, cultists have no more bite, and all the work I just did is more or less undone. Plus 3 squads of traitor guard really isn't enough to bother when they're 10 man each with nothing keeping them alive. Maybe some day they'll bring special weapons back and I could resume the project.

      @@lousy7580 that's what weddings are: a huge and monumental pain in the ass where you'll do more work and feel more stressed than you probably will in your entire life. But that's why you save them for someone special. They're the final test to see how good your relationship is with the person you love the most in the whole world - the person you want to spend the rest of your life with. Your partner will be just as stressed, if not more stressed out than you are. Particularly if they're a very 'girly' girl who grew up on disney princesses. Weddings are even more of an incredibly huge deal for them. Every thing has to be perfect to justify decades of pent up hype and hope. So everything becomes 1000 times more stressful.
      The bride will always be spending way more time than you on looking absolutely perfect in their wedding dress, and their gal pals will be helping them through quite a complex ritual on a garment that people aren't used to wearing/ takes time to even make fit and feel comfortable in.
      For better or worse, wedding prep requires everyone to focus on the bride way more than the groom, and it's been that way for millenia. It sucks, but nobody else will have time to fix all the millions of little things that can go wrong with such a massive event. That's why the man has to suck it up and be the errand boy. The man has to 'man-up' and take responsibility. That's just par for the course, that is the reality of every groom.
      Ask any man who ever had a happy wedding and a happy marriage. They'll all say it was an absolute nightmare and a pain in the arse and they had to take on way more responsibility than they'd ever needed to in their life until then. But it was all worth it for the slow dance afterwards and the night with their beloved. And all the nights that came after til the end of their days.

    The strategems for the IW seems good, but kind of easily defeated after just one wound. Granted if your REAL good (or lucky) a unit may always have -1 to wound. I would have loved something that was the opposite of the Anvil Siege detachment, like anything with ___ gains ____ or give them the IF old detachment rule where 6s on bolters get an extra attack (though I started after that so I don't know how broken it was). Or even what if they had some kind of rule that gives them added attack, pen, or strength if attacking things behind cover (since they're all about the siege)
