Emperor's Children

In order to use this supplement, you will require a copy of Codex: Chaos Space Marine, which contains all of the core units involved in making a Emperor's Children army.

Keywords

All units have the <Legion> keyword. This is replaced with Emperor's Children Keyword.

Mustering an Army

You will build an army according to the Battlepack you and your opponent agree to play with. By default, the Crusade battle pack is the safest bet for most games.
