| From a 100% reliable source wishing to remain anonymous (confirmed by pics): COVEN Supplement
Power from pain - by turn number. 1 – nothing 2 – Fearless 3 – Fear, Fearless 4 – Fear, Fearless, it will not die 5 – Fear, It will not die, zealot 6+ - Eternal Warrior, fear, it will not die, zealot
This is a straight copy from the book - yes some of the powers are omitted on purpose as they are not listed in the chart every turn
Warlord chart 1 – talos & chronos reroll FNP rolls of 1 within 12”of warlord 2 – warlord plus any grotesques he joins gain it will not die 3 – add or subtract 1 from reserve rolls 4 – If your warlord is slain by an attack/weapon with AP 1 or 2 or with the ID rule, gain D3 VP 5 – Warlord plus wracks he joins gain FNP4+ 6 – Warlord gains preferred enemy
Artifacts 10pts – pick one of the following at the start of your turn which lasts until your next turn – IWND, fleet, poisoned 4+, rampage (used each turn) 10pts – fighting in a challenge – opponent suffers -5 to initiative 25pts – 8”range, S1, AP2, assault 1, blast, instant death, no effect on vehicles (used as a grenade in shooting phase) 10pts – Additional D6 attacks at S3, AP- at initiative 10, grant an additional pile in move at this step, no bonus applicable for furious charge, rending etc 20pts – IWND 4+, only wounded by poisons special rule on 6 35pts - +1 to FNP rolls, negate first wound suffered if it has the ID rule but when this happens, the item is lost
Coven Detachment Required – 2HQ, 2 Elite Optional – 4HQ, 6 Elite, 4 Heavy Support Units that are available in the detachment – Urien, Haemonculus, Raider (DT only), Venom (DT only), Wracks, grotesques, talos, chronos Benefits – if this is the primary detachment you can reroll warlord chart from this book. All enemy units within 12”of 1 or more models from this detachment suffer -1LD
7(!!!) formations as well!

| OK GW, shut up and just take my money IMHO it feels like, from both codex and supplement, GW wanna support Coven while persecuting Kabal and Cult in this edition.

Now if we could just get a Wych Cult supplement that looks like that, everything would be fine with the universe! _________________ House of the Bitter Laugh, uniting the Kabal of Scorn, the Cult of Disdain, and the Coven of Jaded Atrocities

| That looks really interesting. And I expect it will get more interesting once I've gotten to start digesting the core codex.
Man, I am gonna end up spending so much money that I can't really afford to spend. _________________ Dark Eldar plog: Drug-Crazed Space ElvesStupid humans plog: Calyptra's Stupid Humans Vampire Counts plog: Bat Country | |

Does it mean they have no Fearless from Turn 5? _________________ Eldar Alliance: Kabal of the Wraithkind / Craftworld Iyanden / Masque of the Veiled Path / Ynnari Aetheriders (Log) Slaanesh Force: Chaos Daemons / Emperor's Children (both 30k & 40k) / Heretek Metalica | |

| Wow! Seems like some pretty thematic and hard hitting stuff. I may very well end up begging the wife for some extra hobby money this month. I'll just have to call it my very early Christmas gifts.
@Barking Agatha I'm sure GW will produce something decent for the wych cults. Plenty of money to be made. | |

| Formation #5, there, with the haemy/cronos/talos. Looks awesome until I realized that PfP doesn't give FNP in this setup... So no benefit? _________________ I dedicate these deaths to Odin Allfather, Spearshaker, One Eye.

| I am still....a bit confused. Those formations said nothing about troops -- how would that work out when forming an army - Wracks are still elites? | |

IMO you don't need troop as the detachment consists of only HQ and Elite (and HS for your choice). _________________ Eldar Alliance: Kabal of the Wraithkind / Craftworld Iyanden / Masque of the Veiled Path / Ynnari Aetheriders (Log) Slaanesh Force: Chaos Daemons / Emperor's Children (both 30k & 40k) / Heretek Metalica | |

| I don't have 7th ed so how would a force drawn from the coven supplement ally with units from the new parent Dark Eldar codex?
And if I decide to get back into the game what will I need to buy to get current with the basic rules for 7th ed? | |

| Coven troops would be considered battle brothers for everything. Only thing that wouldn't work is the detachment rules wouldn't transfer between detachments.
