9th Edition

- Cost: Unchanged
- Strategy: +1
Thousand Sons players rejoiced when the news broke that Magnus can be put into reserves. Long plagued by turn 1 alpha strikes, Magnus should now see steady play in 9th since he can at least evade the worst of the enemy fire power early. In addition, he dodged a major point increase in the shift to 9th, which is a nice bonus.
Notes
- Be ready to place him in Strategic Reserves when you face armies with serious Firepower to bring him down fast
8th Edition (Chapter Approved 2019)
Overall: 3.7
- Performance: 5
- Cost: 2
- Strategy: 4
Notes
- Absolute beast of a unit but comes with some baggage - expensive and weak against horde armies
- Seeing a resurgence during the “Marine Meta” as high damage Alpha Strike armies have fallen out of favor
