Eradicator Squad Datasheet Changes - normanthesquid/wh40k-fundapocalypse GitHub Wiki

The Eradicator Squad Datasheet was created using the Aggressor Squad datasheet.

Melta Rifles were built using the Meltagun profile from the Ironclad Dreadnought profile.

Heavy Melta Rifles were a little tricky, since they are just Melta Rifles that are Heavy and do more damage. We decided to make improve the SAT from 7+ to 5+. This makes Multi-Meltas still better, since they have 1 point better SAP and SAT

The additional Multi Meltas presented a bit of a challenge. The profile should probably be "pick 3/6 weapons, all have to be rifles or heavy rifles, except 1/2 can be multi meltas", but that is pretty complex for an Apocalypse datasheet. In the end, we decided to just make it so that the Multi-Meltas are in addition to the Melta Rifles, and cost an additional PL. One dude in the squad is dual wielding like a badass.

For Power Level, we made them cost 1 PL more than Aggressors, which matches the changes in the Jan 2021 FAQ.

Total Obliteration

This was a little tricky, since "Advance" means very different things in 9e and Apocalypse. In the end, we tied Total Obliteration to the Aimed Fire order - technically a small nerf compared to 9e, but its not like Eradicators are gonna suffer that much from a small nerf:

"When this unit's detachment carries out the Aimed Fire order and this unit makes a Shoot action, double it's Attacks characteristic and the Attacks Characteristic of any Multi-meltas it is equipped with for that action."
