Atia posted today on Disqus that her preview will be up on thursday.

So that's probably the earliest GW is wanting them out? That's a bit annoying.

No, not neccessarily. And not what she said.

Pre-orders generally go up in about an hour from now right?

Also, those dice look incredible!

Wait, the pre-order isn't up in the website for me! How is everyone pre-ordering already?

it went up on the NZ site at their usual time, then rolled out everywhere for a couple of hours or so...guess someone pressed the wrong button they've been down again everywhere but NZ for the past hour or so, but a couple of us got in while we could...and hopefully there won't be any dramas with our orders :/ ...should be up again soon in Aus, and around the normal times for everywhere else...

For those complaining about the dice...order some custom dice of your own. Chessex (despite having a website from the 1980's) is excellent to deal with. I have customized dice for my Nurgle-influenced Chaos Space Marines. Thirty dice w/ custom 6's cost me around $34 shipped. They're 16mm, and I ordered two opposing colours (for special weapons/etc.).

It's exceptionally easy to do. I have similar dice for my Eldar craftworld.

Is it possible to get less rounded corners than what is normal for cheesed?

Not per Chessex I don't imagine - may be some other options. There are companies who do custom casino dice, but I baulk to imagine the prices that might involve.

Ah cool, I was a little worried there for a sec

Ye boiz! Codex collection with dice and cards all pre-ordered along with the glory that is Mortarion! Somehow I managed to stop myself from buying the crazy $400 edition. Probably because I'd of gone bankrupt

Anyone looking for the dice all by themselves still, the NZ site has the dice up all by themselves. So if you're ordering on other sections of the world you may want to just wait for them to fix the error and put them up there too.

Is that figure with the scythe in almost the direct center of the picture, to the left of the big vehicle, the new Typhus? He has the central horn and the scythe, and his backpack looks larger and more hive-like than the other terminators.

Yup, that's him all right. Or someone that looks exactly like he does.

That drone to the left of him... does it have a lawn mower attachment?

Yup.

There's the regular guns, a lawnmower, and some type of multi-barrelled thing with an ammo/gunk drum to the other side.

I rather really like those dice. Most likely not super balanced, but very cool and don't look too bad to read. Probably better than the Marine dice and Definitely better than the Tzeench ones.

Anyone see this yet?

Way better looking than the super-bright paint job.

TBF indented pips on a normal d6 unbalance them somewhat---something along the lines of a 3% improvement in average rolls thanks to the 1 side being a bit heavier than the 6.

Has the codex already. Hopefully some reviews leaks today. But not from this guy...

Aww, the one time I'm tempted by special dice I miss the erronous early opportunity to order.

Still waiting for the release of sprue pics for the Plague Marine kit to judge what kitsit can best be bashed with and how posable the Marines will be before my hype can reach critical levels.

Preorders up in the UK. I was going to get the limited codex with the tokens but £95 more for a different cover and some tokens no thanks my brain isn't THAT addled by Nurgles Rot.

Digital samples are up on the iStore. I havent read both yet. Looks like they focus on fluff and artwork like with previous codices. Some interesting read though and they arent brief.

I will type the previously unknown entries instead

Daemon Prince of Nurgle
Chaos Lord
Chaos Lord in Terminator armour
Sorcerer
Socerer in Terminator armour
Plague Surgeon
Deathshroud Terminators
Blightlord Terminators
Beasts of Nurgle
Myphitic Blight-Haulers
Nurglings
Plague Drones
Plaguebearers

Everything expected like Defilers, Chaos Cultists and the previously mentioned like the Biologus are in the book.

I knew it!!!

How much cost the world? This much? So, just a small codex for me please.

The 360° view of Morty made it final to me, that I won´t invest in him. If he is ruleswise the thing to play, I will look for a proxy.

The dice look really hard to read, I would wash them lightly with Agrax, to distinguish the pimples better. But I think they are rigged. Somebody has to roll the dice 100 times, so we can get the average outcome.

So no GUO, huh. Can you get us the new pts values of Nurgle Daemons?

Point values arent in the sample

Noooooo, not Beasts


I'm a bit bummed out that Mortarion really has only five Nurglings. They cram in (un)holy numbers in squad sizes and everything else that's not bolted shut, but the Death Lord can't afford to have a bigger posse?! That and the price are the big letdowns. He seems to be the same size as =I= Artemis, which was less than a third of Mortarion's price.


PS: Buy the dice yes/no? My gf tells me they're butt ugly, I kinda like them if I picture them painted.

Butt ugly is the highest praise Nurgle themed dice can get, purchase away

Hmm, what are "myphitic Blight-Haulers"? A variant of the plaguecrawler or of the drone? It's obviousely a fast attack choice.

I'm known as Plagueknight on this forum, Plaguecaster is my B&C name

I think the size comparison is off on the website. Are 100mm bases that much thinner than 32mm bases? And the 100mm base looks smaller than three of the 32mm bases across.

Thanks, Plagueknight and Marshal Loss

Unit variants are listed together, so probably a Drone.
