Codex: Cadia (IPAD)

For thousands of years, the people of Cadia have known nought but war. Fighting always to hold back the infernal hosts of Chaos, all Cadians – no matter their age, gender or station – must know how to fight. By the age of five most Cadians can strip and reassemble a lasgun. By six, most are deadly shots, and before their seventh birthdays they have received a no-nonsense introduction to the horrors of Psyker-taint and mutation. The Cadian Shock Troops are believed by many to be without equal in the entirety of the Imperial Guard. Displaying enviable levels of discipline, excellent marksmanship, and a cynical gallows humour, Cadian soldiers hold true to the tenet that to do your best and give your life for the Emperor is the highest form of honour.

This Warhammer 40,000 expansion will allow you to field an army of Cadian Shock Troops in your games of Warhammer 40,000. It is designed to be used in conjunction with the army list in Codex: Astra Militarum, and contains the following:

• Datasheets for 8 super-heavy tanks to add to any Astra Militarum army

• 12 Astra Militarum formations, groups of models that gain additional special rules when used together on the battlefield

• Tactical Objectives for Astra Militarum forces to use in Maelstrom of War missions

• A new Cadian Battle Group detachment representing the armies of Cadia

• Cadia-specific Warlord Traits and Heirlooms

• An Echoes of War mission based on a famous engagement of the Cadians

This is not a standalone product. It requires copies of Warhammer 40,000: The Rules and Codex: Astra Militarum to use. The content within this book is taken from 'The Red Waaagh!', 'Mont'ka' and 'Echoes of War: Last Step Backwards'.
