INTRODUCTION

The 8th company is one which is most rapidly deployable as a whole company within the structure of the Adeptus Astartes Chapter organisation. It consists entirely of assault squads and some specialised units associated with command, control, logistics and specific assault roles. Detachments are usually deployed to augment other battle companies at crucial points in the attack or counter-attack.

This list assumes the occasional situation where a large detachment containing it's own generic command structure or even the whole company might be deployed during large campaigns. It is based on the Dark Angels Codex, but can be adapted towards C:SM by simply altering the point values of characters. In game terms this list is aimed at those playing "Big Fun Games" of 5,000 points or more, where a detachment from the 8th Company may join other standard forces.

DEPLOYMENT

This specialised assault company may deploy by aerial assault or ground assault. This must be decided at the beginning of the game. Only units equipped with jump packs and those deployable by drop pods (dreadnoughts) may take part in an aerial assault. (Ground assault squads, assault squads without jump packs and the landraider leviathan cannot air assault) All units may take part in a ground assault with the exception of the Assault pathfinders.

You may field an army using this list, and equip characters from the 8th Company Armoury. Characters can have up to two single-handed weapons or a single-handed weapon and a two-handed weapon. You may also pick 100 points of wargear per model but no model may be given the same item twice. All wargear and weapons must be represented on the model. Items marked with "©" can be taken by independent characters only.
