I'm working on an Epic 40K web page devoted mostly to the Dark Angels. One
of the sections is going to be "New Detachments". The first detachment
I'll be posting there will be the Deathwing detachment. I thought I would
post it here first and see what everyone thinks of it. So fire away! I've
enclosed the >doc format also, for those that can view it.

Notes: Any unit that is part of the detachment can be assigned as the
detachment HQ, subject to the detachment�s chain of command. If the
original HQ is eliminated the next unit below on the chain of command
becomes the new HQ.
Chain of command: Master of Deathwing> Librarian> Terminator> Any other
unit.
Deathwing: As described in Codex: Angels of Death Members are immune to
the effects of psychology. Members of the Deathwing are know for their
unwillingness to back down in the face of horror. To represent this the
Deathwing special ability gives it�s detachment members: +2 to their
Assault value, and the Rampage special ability. Note that the +2 to the
Assault value is added after the doubling for any Hero ability.
You may include as many Deathwing detachments in your army as you wish.
However, you should note that the Deathwing is just a single company and
can muster a maximum of 50 units (split as you wish).
