The 40K Legions are a far cry from the HH Legions. You are talking about before the fall marines compared to 10K years of Khrone degradation.
It is a pity they decided better options for this release where the 8-Bound and Khorne cultist rather than Bloodstalkers.
Oh please. It has nothing to do with "10K years of degradation". WE players are still using units like Havocs and Obliterators right now. They've been doing so for years now. This is an example of terrible rules writing which invalidates people's collections that have been perfectly fine for years and years. That's it. The end.

People say stuff like this but then you read Black Library books and no, units from the HH are still running around. Incidentally the traitor legions have not experienced 10,000 years in real time.

I think there's a big plaque on a wall at GWHQ that says "Great Ideas. Terrible Execution". It's displayed prominently and centrally, and repeated at every team meeting at every level as it is clearly one of the company's core design principles.
I love the idea of Cult-specific Codices, but they've taken so much away that it hardly seems worth it. Filling the 1kSons with Beastmen was a cop-out, but at least it was on point. Nurgle got a bunch of unique vehicles, which was a nice touch, and heaps of characters. All WE seem to be getting is a massive reduction in available units. I fear for the Emperor's Children.
And then, in the same damned building, we have the AoS god-specific books... and they're great! Why is there always such a disconnect between studios at that place?
Yeah, as someone who does AoS as their main game it remains jarring that the god-specific books there could be done so well while it is done so poorly in 40k. While they certainly have their issues (thankfully more historical than current) each book does a fantastic job representing its army in both lore and mechanical rules. Playing a Nurgle army in AoS FEELS like playing a Nurgle army. Ditto for Khorne, Tzeentch, Slaanesh.

All I wanted was a new berserker kit so make some khorne bikers. I’m at least getting that but will have to use the csm codex in order to use them.

No, the AoO ANgron book has some boarding party rules for some factions, and Angron is still in the codex.

Release this week is AoO Angron, Codex World Eaters, and every new model. However, no Combat Patrol. Need to by everything separately out the gate. You'll need to be patient if you want the Combat Patrol for a less expensive army.

I don't mind waiting. I don't even know if I'm going to bother with the codex, given how long it takes me to paint armies these days. It'll probably be 10th edition by the time I'm able to get a 1K point army together, let alone 2K.

Combat Patrol was Invocatus, 2 boxes of Berserkers and 1 box of Jakhals - if your impulses force you to buy anything just avoid those...

No, but I also know my own painting schedule well enough to assume there might be a 10th WE codex out by the time I've got a full army ready to play.

The most baffling thing about that article is they randomly felt the need to explain to Americans that a corner store is a bodega.
I'm trying to think of who, if anyone, I could find that would know what a bodega is (barring a handful that lived in Manhattan). Bonus points if they're somehow actually confused by corner shop.

What if some of the readers are from horrific, non-euclidean dimensions beyond the ken of mortal men, where things like corners or twinkies don't even exist? What then, huh?

The only thing you find at non-euclidean corner stores is dog food and treats for Hounds of Tindalos.

It's just that the word isn't really used over here, that's all.

I think the term bodega is probably more common in the US than in the UK, which makes it even more baffling. Its like someone on their marketing team just got back from a trip to New York (or Philly, LA, or Miami, or Austin, or any number of other American metropoles with a large latino population where the term "bodega" has been loosely adopted as part of the local lexicon) and learned a cool new word and wanted to establish their street cred by using it, except they didn't realize its not really in widespread use across most of the country.

I’m not exactly a world traveler, but I have lived in most regions of the US other than the Deep South.
In all that time, I’ve never met a single person who wasn’t familiar with the term ‘corner store’.
