In general you can’t choose the same Stance twice but there are ways to active two stances simulataneously (thereby allowing you to benefit from a single Stance in two consecutive turns) or allow certain units to benefit from other Stances independent from the current active Stance. In each subsequent Command Phase you then have to select the other Stance from the same Martial Ka’tah or choose a Stance from the next Martial Ka’tah in the sequence you set out at the start of the game. Stances must be selected in a specific order as determined at the start of the game and you have to start by selecting a Stance from your first Martial Ka’tah. There are some restrictions and limitations that govern which Stances are eligible to be selected at any give time however. During each Command Phase you pick an individual Stance from a Martial Ka’tah to be active for that Battle Round. When you select the different Martial Ka’tahs you must also decide on an order for them to activate. After both sides have deployed but prior to determining the first turn you get to pick three different Martial Ka’tahs to use during the battle. There are six different Martial Ka’tahs presented in the Adeptus Custodes Codex, each containing two different Stances which provide small bonuses to Adeptus Custodes units in your army whilst they are active.
They also lose the Emperor’s Chosen ability but fear not, the standard 4+ invulnerable save is now baked into the Aegis of the Emperor ability that all non-vehicle Adeptus Custodes units get (and which I’ll cover later).īefore we dive into the different Shield Hosts lets first take a look at the aforementioned Martial Ka’tah mechanic. Instead all Adeptus Custodes models now count as 1 additional model for the purposes of controlling objectives and this is cumulative with other similar abilities (such as the Impregnable Mind Warlord Trait). One last thing before we move on, Adeptus Custodes no longer have the Sworn Guardian ability, an ability which used to grant a sort of nearly-Objective Secured ability to Custodian Infantry and Biker units which was always super useful for such a small model count army. I’ll cover the different Martial Ka’tahs and their Stances later but to summarise, they work as a more flexible version of the Necron Command Protocols, providing very small bonuses for you army whilst active. Each Shield Host also has a ‘favoured’ Martial Ka’tah which provides a one per game bonus when that particular Martial Ka’tah is active, allowing you to benefit from both Stances from that Martial Ka’tah at the same time. There are six such Shield Hosts which I’ll cover in details below.
You choose a specific Shield Host for your Adeptus Custodes Detachment and that grants two different ‘ Traits‘ to each Adeptus Custodes unit in addition to a Shield Host specific Stratagem, Relic and Warlord Trait. The Shield Host Fighting Style is one of the new ‘mechanics’ for the Adeptus Custodes that work in a similar fashion to Grey Knights Brotherhoods. The aforementioned Watchers of the Throne ability allow Adeptus Custodes Infantry and Biker models to count as two models for the purposes of the Look Out, Sir rule – pretty useful considering the small size of many Custodes units.
Unfortunetly an Anathema Psykana does not grant acces to any Detachment related rules or abilities which is a shame.

If you’d rather build an Anathema Psykana Detachment instead your free to choose a Sisters of Silence Warlord but you are not able to include any Adeptus Custodes units at all (with the exception of Valerian).Īdeptus Custodes Detachments also benefit from the Watchers of the Throne and Shield Host Fighting Style abilities which I’ll cover shortly.
