    Its great that Valdor is a Primarch slot, can you imagine him as an ally HQ plus accompanying troops? It means he can only really be taken in a Custodes primary detach army. So i guess they made the right call even though he technically isnt a primarch, kinda saw that one coming

    The cost of Valdor balances out to other Primarchs because next to everyone is going to take the Teleporter which is 125pts, I believe. Not that having him drop in your backlines is gonna be easy to deal with. Mind, I'd charge a couple of Legionaries into him and tarpit him up for two turns.

    Regarding the Custodes jetbikes, I’m curious what people think about proxying in Dawneagle Jetbikes (plastic) for Gyrfalcon (30k) jetbikes? Normally I’m 100% in the camp of not using 40k models for 30k… but as far as I’m aware from a lore perspective, everything the Custodes have from 40k SHOULD have been around since 30k anyway? I’ve not heard of any lore explaining why they would decide to just completely swap out their jetbikes for a newly invented type halfway through (while invention was becoming a dirty word no less) especially when most of their arsenal hasn’t changed at all. I have six Dawneagles from before I started Heresy and decided to use my Custodes infantry in it, and I’m loathe to go buying six new ludicrously expensive jetbikes to replace models that I would describe to a blind person in exactly the same way (Custodes on a big jetbike, with a Lance, prow-mounted bolt weapon, and no 40k-specific iconography).

    I don’t think it would be a problem to use the Dawneagles- maybe just convert them a little bit so they aren’t completely identical to the original kit. Obviously it’s whether your opponent minds that really matters if they want to allow them for games. I don’t think that Macca would have a problem with it, because he used some in his White Scars “Sagyar Mazan” force a couple of years back. He had the regular 30K Scimitars as well, but I believe that he used the Dawneagles to represent the special White Scars-specific jetbikes, probably because the Forge World Scars-bikes hadn’t come out yet. They looked rather good too, in my opinion. You can find two Legion showcases in his videos if you’re curious, and they are displayed and explained.

That of course doesn't mean the transport is good. But at 180 points, it might not be bad when I get cut to pieces by Mechanicum shooting just trying to footslog them up the board. Edit: I'll also say that the Nemisis rule is basically garbage when you play Mechanicum. My previous opponent had like 1 unit where the rule was even applicable.

    I have a big problem with Valdor personally. He tanks to much but essentially hits with a pillow. Forget fighting terminators with him, he will MAYBE kill 2. Lightning blows rarely ever shows itself useful, Valdor's damage output is not good. Khârn for instance has a better damage output than Valdor, because he gets rerolls from shred. Valdor has no such thing, and in the end you just won't get that many wounds to actually do something. And I've testplayed him multiple times in various scenarios. I'd much rather have him as he was in 1.0, with a 2+/4++ but the "Molecular Severance" special rule. Back then he was way more enjoyable to play and did't tank a shitton amount of damage. And fun fact: Haeteron guards get killed by primarchs like it's nobody's buisness, since primarchs get to allocate wounds by themselves and often cause instant death, against which Custodes only get a 6++ save.
