    Nope. Not buying it.

    Quite easily knocked up. Stats are also ludicrously (read higher than Primarchs) high.

    I'm filing this under S for shenanigans.

    Could be a store specific thing..... But the two month bit? Why bother? GW have moved away from opponents permission in their books, including Forgeworld. So why add it to an article? It only limits sales, and that's not a good plan.

    it could be something locally produced for a specific event, and not an official release at all. not saying I buy it or anything, just saying it might be explainable.

    I don't think it is a new model for sale Mystery, I think it is just a one off rules sheet, if Spain is running a two month campaign, you can use those rules for the duration of the campaign to add Cypher to your force. It could be Dark Angels vs Chaos as a plot, and any none dark angels army may take Cypher for example.

    His stats arn't even close to a Primarchs. Hell, his key stats (S, T & W) are lower then Mephistons.

    You seem to forget Mephiston is a total bad ***, He punchs marines to death!

    And he's still not as tough as a primarch (though he's up there), and Cypher is weaker still. The original claim was Cypher was tougher than a primarch, which is just patently false.

    Also, for those who don't speak Spanish, his wargear is Artificer Armor, (Precision?) Bolt Pistol, (Precision?) Plasma Pistol, frag and krak, and C'tan Phase Blade. His special rules are Independent Character, Deep Strike (? [Maybe Scouts? Translates as Rapid Deployment]), Eternal Warrior, Hit & Run, and Fleet. The Phase Blade is AP3 Instant Death.
