Seriously, anything that subtracts one from being hit or wounded is good. This seems especially useful against tank and dreadnought Characters, or a nice little boost against a knight with the character keyword. Nice! this weapon hits seriously hard and seems particularly mean when used against characters. Everyone meet Shalaxi Helbane, who happens to be the first named slaaneshi greater Daemon thats gotten a mini.(Not counting the Lord of War option Zarakynel of course) while we don’t have the statline for Shalaxi we do have the info for his special spear Thats right, after what seems like forever we finally have a named Keeper of Secrets. That image up there isn’t just any old Keeper of Secrets, its a new named character. If i had to guess, id say that shield bumps up your invuln save and the whip adds a ranged attack similar to a Bloodthirsters. This seems very good, as a big problem with greater Daemons is they tend to be big targets and being able to go up on the damage bracket or get another turn with one is really helpful. while the rules for most of these still elude me, I do have the sinistrous hand. The options include a living whip, sinistrous hand, ritual knife and shining aegis. Normally greater Deamons would come in differnt varients and have fixed set of rules and wargear, but not the new Keeper of Secrets. However, the biggest change is the inclusion of wargear options and quite a few at that. The Keeper of Secrets’ standard loadout reains largely the same aside from an improvement in Ap. Not to mentionThe Keeper of Secrets now is a little faster too, which for such a big target is very important. Even then, its still way more reliable than rolling a D3 so I would say its a flat upgrade. Now, instead of rolling a D3 you just go off the chart that starts at 4 and goes down to two. Another change was to how The Keeper of Secrets generates extra attacks. Though the witstealer sword is now always streangth eight, which allaows you to reasonbly threaten knights and other toughness 8 models. Additionally, their streangth no longer degrades along with the damage table so you always hit at at least streangth six. This is somthing that is always nice, sometimes a wound or two makes all the difference. So, the first noticable change is that The Keeper of Secrets has gained some more wounds. Well, I know a lot of you are eager to see whats changed stat wise so lets start with that. One thing is for sure, 2019 is shaping up to be a good year for Chaos. thats right, we are finnaly getting an updated mini! however thats not all thats changing as the Kepper of Secrets is also getting a rules update as well. Today, we are talking about the new and improved Keeper of Secrets. Hello Everone! the Dak here, back from the international accordion championship to talk about one of Games Workshops new releases.
