Ave Imperator, Force Commander,

Available now in the Execution Force DLC.

#ExecutionForce

We do not determine the guilty; we do not decide the punishment; we are merely the cold instruments of the Emperor's vengeance. There is no form of death unknown to us; there is no form of terror beyond our means; there is no enemy outside our reach. We are the blade that hovers over the throat of the traitor; we are the bullet that awaits the heretic's skull; we are the poison in the throat of the alien.

The Officio Assassinorum have arrived. Our second major DLC, Execution Force is now available to all players via Steam and the Epic Games Store. This DLC brings the might of four unique Assassin units to your disposal. Use them wisely in combination with your Grey Knights to decimate Nurgle’s despicable plague. Alongside Execution Force comes Update XIII, which brings a swathe of its own new content and changes. Notably a new squad of enemies, the Tainted Sons have entered the fray, posing a new fearsome challenge.

Four new Assassin units are now available to be recruited to help in the fight against the Bloom. Shortly into a new or existing campaign, Vakir will contact the Officio Assassinorum which will provide you with your first Assassin. Further Assassins can then be recruited with Requisition:

• Vindicare: A long-range sniper specialist, this unit is fast and focused on critical ranged attacks.
  
• Eversor: Applies high stacks of Bleed and finishes enemies with a devastating Eviscerate attack. This unstable unit sacrifices his own health for high damage and extra actions.
  
• Callidus: Moves among enemies without detection to perform assassinations or scout maps and targets.
  
• Culexus: Nullifies enemy Boons and silences enemy psyker abilities. Her owns skills are empowered when allies use their Willpower. Additionally, she can reduce the Warp Surge meter and close Warp Portals.

The Tentarus strain has grown stronger. New Hive Missions will now appear starting in Act 2. When they do, they will slowly corrupt the planet they are on until it reaches 5 Corruption. Without intervention, the planet will be pulled into the warp and the Morbus will increase. Hive missions require you to destroy the Tentarus Hive found at the centre of the map. To do so, you must first destroy the five Hive Germs protecting it.

When you encounter a Deathguard Vessel on the star map many will now offer you the chance to send a strike force to board the ship and disable it from within. Five new maps have been added so that players can board the vessel and destroy the ship’s generators before time runs out. Along with this several of our Deathguard Ship Events have been updated with new options.

Grandmaster Kai has sent Supplies from Titan. The following Tier 1* items will be added to your inventory on new or existing campaigns with Execution Force enabled:

• Condemnation: Falchions specializing in critical strikes.
  
• Daemonspite: A Psilencer specializing in Daemon killing.
  
• Catharsis: A Storm Bolter that can Purge enemy Mutations.
  
• Aelwyn’s Light: A Flamer that Exposes enemies so they can be critically struck by your allies.
  
• Mantle of Purity: Terminator armour that provides immunity to Plague.
  
• Mace of the Abjurer: A Crozius that Nullifies enemy Boons. *This item is Tier 2.

Several new Achievements have been added for you and your Assassins to accrue.

Three new enemies have joined Nurgle’s forces:

• Plague Surgeon: A new support unit. Doubles the effects of other enemy units' mutations, increases their max HP, and regenerates damaged body parts.
  
• Nurgling Swarm: A new leader unit. Resurrects and mutates Poxwalkers with their tainted chant and gives all other daemons extra HP.
  
• Beast of Nurgle: A strong melee bruiser. The Beast hobbles and immobilizing units, marking them for a killing blow.

The new enemies and some older enemies can arrive as part of the Nurgle’s Tainted Sons group. Enemies that are a part of this faction mutate more frequently. You can now find an enemy’s group type in the Unit Info View panel.

Added a new Psycannon, “Sinflayer”, and Storm Bolter, “Salvation”, to the reward pool at Tier 1 and 3 respectively. Both weapons specialize in afflicting Bleed to your enemies.

Three new Wargear have been added:

• The Purgation Skull Purges and applies Burning to enemies.
  
• The Autoloader Skull can be used to reload a unit for no Action Points.
  
• The Rad Grenade applies Bleed to enemies in the blast radius.

Bleed now stacks each time it is applied. At the end of a unit’s turn, they take Bleed damage equal to their Bleed stacks and then the Bleed stack is reduced by 1. Several changes have been made to Bleed abilities, equipment, enemy abilities and precision target points to support this change:

• Hammerhand Warp Charge now Afflicts +3 Bleed stacks
  
• Apothecary Psybolt Upgrade now Afflicts +2 Bleed stacks
  
• Apothecary Force Strike Upgrade now Afflicts +3 Bleed stacks
  
• Scourging now Afflicts +3 Bleed stacks,

• The Storm Bolter Liberator now has Afflict Bleed +2 stacks (25%) and Psybolt +1 damage. It can be upgraded to Afflict Bleed +2 stacks (35%)
  
• The Psilencer Doom’s End now has Afflict Bleed +2 stacks (100%) and can be upgraded to Afflict +1 Bleed stack
  
• Apostate and Bloomspawn Preachers head target point now applies +4 Bleed stacks
  
• Nurgle Wardog Reaper Chaintalon now Afflicts Bleed +2 stacks.
  
• Bloated Poxwalker Torso target point now applies +3 Bleed stacks.

Ave Imperator, Force Commander!

Heute dürfen wir dir Execution Force ankündigen, einen neuen DLC, der am 25. Juli für Warhammer 40,000®: Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters neben dem kostenlosen Update XIII veröffentlicht wird.

Execution Force ist ein brandneuer herunterladbarer Inhalt für das Basisspiel, der zum Preis von 12,99 £/14,99 US$/14,99 € auf Steam im Epic Games Store erhältlich sein wird. Denk daran, ihn auf deine Wunschliste zu setzen, damit du benachrichtigt wirst, sobald der DLC verfügbar ist.

Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate - Daemonhunters - Execution Force
Execution Force stellt vier brandneue Einheiten vor, die dein Angriffsteam nutzen kann. Setze die Agenten der Vindicare-, Eversor-, Culexus und Callidus-Tempel mit ihren individuellen Fähigkeiten ein, um den Feind zu vernichten. Diese furchterregenden Spezialeinheiten bringen unvergleichliche Fähigkeiten und Fertigkeiten mit und werden für jede beliebige Mission einsatzbereit, sobald du sie in einem Zeitlinien-Event der Hauptkampagne nach und nach freigeschaltet hast. Der Einsatzverband, den du auf eine Mission schickst, kann eine beliebige Kombination aus Grey Knights und Assassinen enthalten, jedoch nur einen Assassinen-Typen.

Meistere die Kunst der Vindicare-Assassinen, hochrangige Ziele mit chirurgischer Präzision aus der Ferne auszuschalten. Diese Scharfschützen-Spezialisten sind mit einem Hochleistungsgewehr und unerreichten Schießkünsten ausgestattet, um feindliche Befehlshaber und gefährliche Bedrohungen mit tödlicher Genauigkeit zu bekämpfen.

Ihre Präzisionszielerfassung ermöglicht es dir, deine Gegner kritisch aus der Distanz zu bekämpfen und mit einem Bluten-Effekt zu belegen, der ihnen nach und nach LP entzieht. Mit der schlagkräftigen Fähigkeit „Todesschuss“ vernichten sie außerdem sofort jedes lebende Ziel.

Das Arsenal der Vindicare umfasst das Exitus-Gewehr (ermöglicht die Präzisionszielerfassung), die Exitus-Pistole (diese zuverlässige Sekundärwaffe hat unbegrenzte Munition) und den Tarnanzug, eine Rüstung, die Zugriff auf eine Tarnfähigkeit gewährt.

Entfessle gnadenlose Wut mit dem Eversor-Assassinen. Diese nahkampforientierte Einheit verfügt über eine eigene Opfer-Mechanik. Die Fähigkeiten des Eversors werden weder durch Willenskraft noch Abklingzeiten beschränkt, kosten aber LP, die sich durch Nahkampf-Kills wieder auffüllen lassen. Der Eversor ist mit einem Energieschwert ausgerüstet, der Gegner mit „Bluten“ belegt und gesammelte Mengen davon sofort in hohen Schaden umwandeln kann. Außerdem verfügt er über eine Henkerpistole mit Nadler-Angriff, mit der die gegnerische Resistenz gesenkt wird. Der Synskin-Bodyglove ist eine Rüstung, die den Eversor immun gegenüber automatischen Fähigkeiten macht.

Nutze die aufhebenden psionischen Kräfte des Culexus-Assassinen. Dieser Anti-Psioniker-Spezialist bietet dir komplette Immununität gegen psionische Angriffe. Deswegen ist er sehr gut für das Kontern feindlicher Psioniker und dämonischer Einheiten geeignet. Außerdem kann er Warpwogen zu einem gewissen Grad steuern. Zu seiner Ausrüstung gehören das Animus-Spekulum, ein Helm, der seine einzige Waffe darstellt, sowie die Synskin-Bodyglove-Rüstung.

Widme dich der Kunst der Täuschung und Infiltration mit dem Callidus-Assassinen. Er ist mit erweiterten Aufklärungsfähigkeiten ausgerüstet, die ihm das Annähern an feindliche Trupps ermöglichen, ohne einen Kampf auszulösen. Mit diesen Fähigkeiten umgeht er Gegner mit hohen Rüstungswerten und LP. Das Phasenschwert gewährt dir die Assassinen-Rüstungsdurchdringung, während der „Neuronale Shredder“ seine Ziele aus der Entfernung mit „Betäuben“ oder anderen Nachteilen belegt. Er trägt außerdem die Synskin-Bodyglove-Rüstung.

Der herunterladbare Inhalt „Execution Force“ bietet dir außerdem zwei neue Missionstypen, in denen du deine Assassinen und dein Können als Force Commander unter Beweis stellen kannst.

Begib dich ins Herz des Tentarus-Stammes der Blüte. In diesen Missionen erhält der Einsatzverband Xiphos die Aufgabe, eine Tentarus-Makropole zu zerstören. Zunächst einmal ist die Makropole unverwundbar, bis du fünf Makropolen-Keime ausgelöscht hast. Sieh dich auf der Karte nach ihnen um und vernichte sie. Es wird nicht einfach sein, die Makropolen-Keime zu zerstören. Die Tentarus-Makropole kann regelmäßig Verstärkung anfordern und feuert mit einem Ferngeschütz. Kannst du deine Einheiten zusammenhalten und den Großteil dieser Last tragen oder wirst du es riskieren, deine Gruppe aufzuteilen, um deine Ziele schnell zu erreichen?

Auf diesem Missionen dringen die Grey Knight in den Kreuzer der Death Guard ein, um dessen Stromgeneratoren zu zerstören. Erreiche dein Ziel innerhalb der Zeitvorgabe, sonst lernst du die Folgen deines Fehlschlags kennen. Gelingt es dir nicht, den Kreuzer zu deaktivieren, wird das Edikt des Unheils schwer beschädigt. Bei einem Erfolg wirst du großzügig belohnt. Für die Enter-Missionen der Death Guard und die Aufgaben in der Tentarus-Makropole gibt es jeweils fünf neue Kartenvarianten.

Darüber hinaus erweitert der DLC Execution Force dein Arsenal um neue Waffen und Rüstungen. Nutze sie in Kombination mit den neuen Assassinen-Einheiten, um der wachsenden Bedrohung durch die Blüte zu begegnen. Weitere Details und Informationen zu den gesamten Inhalten geben wir ab sofort bis zur Einführung bekannt. Denk daran, regelmäßig auf unseren Social-Media-Kanälen nachzuschauen!

Folge Warhammer 40.000®: Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters auf Twitter, Facebook, Instagram und YouTube.

Ave Imperator, Force Commander.

Wir freuen uns, ein kostenloses Update mit zusätzlichen Inhalten und Verbesserungen anzukündigen, das am 25. Juli für Warhammer 40:000®: Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters eintrifft. Damit das Eingreifteam Xiphos ausreichend vorbereitet ist, haben wir hier einen Überblick darüber erstellt, was dich erwartet:

Die verderbten Reihen von Nurgles Armee blähen sich weiter in alle Richtungen auf und werden um die Befleckten Söhne ergänzt. Diese widerliche neue Brutgruppe setzt sich zusammen aus:

Der Nurgling-Schwarm existiert nur in der Brutgruppe der Befleckten Söhne, gewährt allen Dämonen Stärkungen und wird dadurch zu einem wichtigen Ziel

Diese Unterstützungseinheit ist ein Einzelziel, das seine Verbündeten heilt, stärkt und die Vorteile ihrer Mutationen multipliziert. Der Wundbrandner wird meist von den anderen Befleckten Söhnen begleitet, taucht aber auch oft auf, um anderen Gegnergruppen zu helfen.

Diese Einheit erscheint zwischen Mitte und Ende des Spiels und ist ein körperlich fordernder Gegner, der dich mit Nahkampfangriffen eindeckt und Schaden für andere Dämonen einsteckt. Wenn er zu nah kommt, macht er deine Grey Knights bewegungsunfähig und fokussiert sie, bis sie ausgeschaltet werden. Lass deine Einheiten nicht dieses Schicksal ereilen.

Die Befleckten Söhne haben im Allgemeinen viele LP und einen raschen Zugriff auf Mutationen, jedoch nur wenig Rüstung und Resistenz. Diese Neigung zu Mutationen ist ein Statuseffekt, der den Befleckten Söhnen zum Vorteil gereicht. Der Vorteil hat eine Chance von 15 %, die Einheit zu mutieren, wenn sie angegriffen wird, weswegen du im Kampf schnell viel Schaden verursachen musst.

Es gibt nicht nur neue Gegner, auch das Schlachtfeld selbst wird immer gefährlicher. Zwei neue Warpwogen des Tentarus-Stammes werden nun geortet:

• Die Warpwoge „Großzügige Ergüsse“ sorgt dafür, dass Gegner drei Runden lang explodieren, und stärkt die Gesundheit der verbündeten Einheiten in ihrer Nähe (+3 LP).
  
• Das Warpwogen-Ereignis „Tosende Mutationen“ lässt alle Gegner auf der Karte mutieren.

Mach deine Grey Knights mit brandneuen Kriegsausrüstungsoptionen gefechtsbereit. Im Kampf gegen Nurgles Seuche wird ein strategischer Einsatz dieser zusätzlichen Ausrüstung das Kriegsglück zu deinen Gunsten wenden:

Mit dieser Kriegsausrüstung lässt sich ein einzelner Gegner auf eine Entfernung von bis zu 10 Feldern reinigen. Deckung wird dabei ignoriert. Auf Rang 2 verursacht sie drei Züge lang „Brennen“, auf Rang 3 sogar fünf Züge lang.

Der Autolader-Schädel unterbindet alle Nachladen-Fähigkeiten seiner Ziele (beide, wenn der Dreadnought anvisiert wurde) auf eine Entfernung von bis zu 10 Feldern. Die Ränge 2 und 3 erhöhen den Munitionsvorrat der Kriegsausrüstung um 2.

Die Radikalgranate führt einen Explosivangriff auf eine Entfernung von 10 Feldern durch und belegt Gegner mit „Bluten 3“. Auf den Rängen 2 und 3 wird daraus jeweils „Bluten 4“ und „Bluten 5“.

Wir glauben fest daran, dass dir der Erhalt dieser Informationen Zeit für deine Vorbereitungen gibt, bevor Nurgle seine Machenschaften umsetzt. Weitere Informationen über die kommenden Änderungen werden im Laufe dieses Monats veröffentlicht.
