My faithful inquisitorial courier dropped off a black box with a purity seal just now.
This months spiffy contents:
Valkrie
New Cadian Command Sprue
IG Codex
So if you have a GW store or independent Partnership level store, they should have these by friday at the latest.

Heh. I just checked out the contents at the Bryn Mawr store. The Valk is 4 pretty loaded sprues. Codex looks nice, too. I see what HBMC means about the stormtrooper art...they look a little different than what we've seen before.

No camera on me, but a buddies girlfriend came in. I had her take a picture on her phone and send it to him. Reply was "Bastards, now I have to put pants on and run down." Soon as he and his blackberry gets here we'll get some bitz pictures posted up.

Sweet mother of all gak! Tell him to move his pants and get the pictures flowin'! I'd be eternally grateful, and you'd win half an internets per sprue posted.
It drives me nuts that we haven't seen the command sprues. It's really the only one that hasn't surfaced. The prepainted 'contents' picture SO doesn't count.

I like a codex leak as much as the next guy, if not more, but asking mikhaila now is a bit off as there is too high a likelihood the source will be uncovered.

Albeit one with a Chimera chassis rather than a Russ chassis. Here I was getting excited that I'd have a use for the spare Leman Russ chassis I have. Right now, I've got too many Russ chassis and not nearly enough Chimera chassis. (And really, what is the plural for chassis?)

Man, I wish there was a real Black Library where I could get a Black Library Card and take out Black Library Books without having to buy them. Of course, late fees would be your soul. But it would be worth it. - InquisitorMack |

And - as I mentioned in another thread - mounted further forward than most weapons on a chimera.

Admittedly, my Spanish is not very good but it looks like the Griffon is also indirect fire only. Can anyone that has seen the English version of the book confirm/deny this?

.... FFFF!! Is anyone else massively miffed by the fact our Sgts and Lieutenants can't take Lasguns?!
Just ran my Translator-Fu on that bit and yeah, looks like they can get Bolt pistols, Plasma Pistols (On a sgt?  ) and a bolter for the lieutenant, but no lasgun to be found. Stupid? Si.
Interestingly, Commissars come with Bolt Pistols standard. Gee, sure am glad I don't have any expensive resin Commissars armed with Laspistols...

Wait, WHAT?!?! I can't have my Sgt with a lasgun? If this is true, it is the STUPIDEST thing I've heard yet. What on earth is the point of arming him with a laspistol? So he can die easier?

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat? I have something like 12 Sgts with lasguns. What in the world is the point of having a Sgt. with a pistol?

Indeed. I'm holding out that it's a mis-read, all due respect to the poster.
And the bolt pistol commissars too. I have one armed with a laspistol. I'll be fething PISSED if he can't use it.
