You then make a Charge roll for the charging unit by rolling 2D6. The result is the maximum number of inches each model in that unit can be moved if a Charge move is possible. For a Charge move to be possible, the Charge roll must be sufficient to enable the charging unit to end that move: In early M42, a scarred and aged Ventris reappeared, once again leading the 4th Company during the return of Roboute Guilliman. Ventris has since crossed the Rubicon Primaris and took part in the Indomitus Crusade. [10] However another source states Ventris and his 4th Company took part in the Ultramar Campaign and Terran Crusade, meeting Guilliman earlier than initially depicted. [11c] Sycorax At the Battle of Bridge Two-Four on the planet Thracia, Idaeus sacrificed himself to help capture the objective, leaving Ventris in command and giving him Idaeus' power sword. [1] Some weapons have ‘Blast’ listed in their profile’s abilities. These are referred to as Blast weapons. In addition to the normal rules, the following rules apply to Blast weapons:

If you’ve read any of the novels, you’ll know that Ventris is famed for his unconventional solutions to battlefield problems, which is reflected in his Unorthodox Strategist ability. This allows him to reduce the CP cost of the Adaptive Strategy Stratagem from Codex: Space Marines , letting you react to the changing situation in your games and disrupt enemy plans with ease.It is likely, however, that it was the same athame that Remus Ventanus had taken from the Word Bearers officer Hol Beloth during the Battle of Calth, though it could also have been the dagger Ventanus had taken from one of the other Word Bearers officers to bear an athame, Morpal Cxir, and used to banish the Daemon Samus. With the Daemon army and Honsou's forces defeated in all the theatres of the war, the Imperial forces proceeded to engage in mopping-up operations, and within six solar months, the Realm of Ultramar was declared free of the touch of Chaos. Ominously, while the ruins of the Tomb of Ventanus were searched thoroughly, the body of Warsmith Honsou was never recovered. When setting objective markers up on the battlefield, place them so they are centred on the point specified by the mission. When measuring distances to and from objective markers, measure to and from the closest part of them. Models can move over objective markers as if they were not there, but they cannot end a move on top of an objective marker.

During their journey, Ventris and Pasanius encountered renegade Space Marines, led by former Raven Guard Shadow Captain Ardaric Vaanes. The Ultramarines followed the renegades to their sanctuary, and met the few remaining survivors of 383rd Jouran Dragoons, left after the Iron Warriors overran the Forge World of Hydra Cordatus. Based on what he heard from the renegades, Ventris worked out that the new castellan of Khalan-Ghol, Warsmith Honsou, had created a new "factory" of Chaos Space Marines, using the Heart of Blood (a powerful daemon) and geneseed captured from Hydra Cordatus. [7] The whole Chapter rose in defence of the realm, aided by an Adeptus Mechanicus contingent under Magos Locard, the warband of the system-based Ordo Malleus Inquisitor Suzaku, a squad of Raven Guard Space Marines, the mobilised Ultramaran Planetary Defense Force regiments, and many civilians. The war expanded to encompass several Ultramar worlds, at least one of which was destroyed. Ventris went on to become a hero of the Chapter himself, playing a role in most of the major conflicts to consume the Ultramarines in the final years of the 41st Millennium, including a leading part during the Invasion of Ultramar in 999.M41 by the Daemon Prince M'kar the Reborn, the Warsmith Honsou and their army of Iron Warriors Heretic Astartes and other Chaos Space Marine warbands called the Bloodborn. At some point before he attained his Captaincy, Ventris was seconded to the Deathwatch, the Chamber Militant of the Ordo Xenos that specialized in hunting xenos threats. [4x] [5]

New Uriel Ventris Rules Preview

Uriel delivered an ultimatum to the T'au; either their forces withdrew unharmed, or he would have the 4th Company Strike Cruiser Vae Victus unleash an Exterminatus action on Pavonis to deny the planet to the T'au. Realising Ventris' threats were not empty, the T'au reluctantly retreated. Uriel Ventris is the young captain of the 4th Company of the Ultramarines Chapter of Space Marines. The final rule we got a sneak peek at his Crusade ability. This is great to have access to, giving you the option to use a stratagem twice and at a 60% discount, each time seems pretty good. During transit in the Warp, the ship's Geller Field inexplicably failed, and all those within the ship perished, except for Ventris and Pasanius. A daemon known as the Omphalos Daemonium appeared, and overpowered the Ultramarines, taking them captive on board his Daemon Engine. They were transported to the Iron Warriors homeworld, Medrengard, and charged with the task of retrieving the Heart of Blood from the fortress of Khalan-Ghol. Threatened with the annihilation of Macragge and Ultramar, Ventris complied with the Omphalos's demands. However, after the daemon departed, Ventris assured Pasanius that he would not honour the pact, and instead would destroy the Heart of Blood. [7]

In the aftermath of that campaign, following the departure of Guilliman for Terra during the Terran Crusade, Ultramar came under a renewed assault by the servants of the Plague God Nurgle that was led by the Daemon Primarch Mortarion and his Death Guard Traitor Legion, a conflict known as the Plague Wars.

The Swords of Calth , the first new Uriel Ventris novel in a decade, headlines the Celebration. Author Graham McNeill has taken the beloved Ultramarines captain to the next level – Ventris has crossed the Rubicon Primaris, and taken his place among the new breed of Space Marines defending the Imperium.

If the Devastator Doctrine was active for your army during the previous battle round, you can change it so that the Tactical Doctrine is now active.The Unfleshed were the mutated rejects of the Daemonculaba; born disfigured and without skin, they were cast away by their creators. The Iron Warriors mass-produced skin to flesh newly born Iron Warriors, but those rejected were discarded. Ventris convinced the Unfleshed, who still worshipped the Emperor, to join him in his mission to destroy Khalan-Ghol. Vaanes and the other renegades abandoned Ventris, except for Leonid. As the Chaos assault worsened and the Loyalist defenders of Ultramar found themselves slowly losing ground, Ultramarines Chapter Master Marneus Calgar despatched Ventris to find the primarch, now the ruling lord commander of the Imperium, and seek his help in safeguarding their common home. You can add Captain Uriel Ventris to any army with the Ultramarines faction keyword for 110 points or 6 Power. For this cost, he brings everything you’d expect from a Primaris Captain to the table and a fair bit more.
