Hello everyone! Zak Ludick here from Cape Town, South Africa and this is a Warhammer 40k - The Great Unit Review Wheel! post!
Now known as the Unit Review Library!
What is it all about? It is not there to just give a stat. It is there to give MY review of the unit!
Also this has become quite the Challenge! With so many units to review in the game the consensus in the hobby community is that I will not have enough time to review all of the Datasheets before the new edition of Warhammer 40,000 came out.
I should have started when 10th edition launched!
446 days since the start of 10th Edition.
This is Review #134, I am 312 reviews behind!
Not picking randomly at the moment, I am focusing on Blood Angels to get them done before their new Codex comes out!
Blood Angels, Chief Librarian Mephiston
10th Edition Index
Mephiston, the Lord of Death. This is one Space Marine Libarian that is actually a really big threat in close combat!
Mephiston is such a Legend because he fell to the Curse of the Black Rage and was trapped under rubble and because he was forced to endure it, he managed to survive and conquer his Black Rage and thus unlocked his full psychic potential and emerged from the rubble as an unstoppable powerhouse!
He is 100pts and costs $45 to buy.
He is definitely going to be in the new Codex!
Let's check his stats!

The Quickening
While leading a unit, this unit has Fights First.
Psychic Hood
While leading a unit, this units has a 4+ Feel No Pain vs attacks that are Psychic
Thoughts
Mephiston has always been a scary powerhouse. I have had to play against him many times. His shooting abilities make him challenging, his close combat ability and rules will boost that of the unit that he is with. I assume a nice big unit of Assault Intercessor Squad would do the trick and get that Fights First!
That makes 8 Blood Angels Reviewed putting them on 42.10% Completed! The total Completed is 13.80% Complete! Can I review them all?!
Thank you for reading!
