I'm thinking the book is going to be more daemon oriented, but hell yea if thousand sons get some lovin'

So, for those with the book, what is the deal with the space wolf character? What loadout and abilities does he have in both forms? No need to post stats but just an overview would be appreciated.

He's nails and may randomly turn into a werewolf, makes 1 unit of grey hunters infiltrate, and he and any f wolves may out flank.

Small tidbit that I put here instead of starting a new thread:

This was up on the wall in the Forgeworld studio in Lenton.

Given that it's supposed to be monsters etc. It seems a little odd that they aren't (from the sounds of it) tying it into the February masterclass on painting... monsters?


Automatically Appended Next Post:
My copy of IA11 arrived this afternoon. As expected, it's a really nice looking book with some very nice artwork. Each volume takes another step forwards in quality; I'm looking forward to reading it over the next few days.

Having said that... I've encountered one copy/paste problem already. On page 196 they have the stats of the Eldar Scorpion and Cobra super-heavies. The Scorpion has twin linked Pulsars; the Cobra has a D-cannon; all the options are the same for both. Unfortunately the weapon stats under the Cobra are the Pulsar stats, not those for the D-cannon.

Found by Deff Mekz over at Warseer:

From Forge World on there FB page. (not me btw who asked this)

Q-"Hey guys, just reading my copy of IA11, the Void Dreamer has 2 entries for corsair jet pack, should 1 of them be jet bike or is it not meant to be there at all?"

-I guess that is where they should have mentioned the Webway Portal (35 points)

FW -One of them should indeed be Webway Portal..........+35pts

So that explains the Webway Portal anyway.

Oh Forge World, you so copypasta.

At this point we've gone way past 'oops', embarrassing and WTF already?!?

I thought I read somewhere that the Tzeentch book would be about Tzeentch marines that ARE NOT Thousand Sons, but who knows?

At least Slaanesh finally gets some Forgeworld loving!

WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS???

Seriously, that's below the belt stuff.

I'd take that to mean that they focus on the psykers who control the Rubric marines. It's kind of hard to write anything interesting when your main characters are basically unthinking automotons.

Death Korps of Krieg, what?

so when does DE get their FW book? also....aside from the special characters dosent everything this book have already exist in other books? namley the recent apoc book FW put out? i dont think 42 pounds (like 100 $$ for me) is really worth some new fluff and special characters. especially when i already bought the new apoc book and it has everything.

Well the corsair army list is certainly unique, as are about half the eldar units contained within this book...

Conversely:

Its a lovely creation full of fluff and great imagery and about three times the size of a Codex at about twice the price.

new stuff includes
Full Corsairs army list - which is pretty interesting
new Special Characters for Eldar, Imperial Guard and Space Wolves
