Because it's totally b0rken IMBA OP on Vanguard right now?

Vanguard are limited by being Elites, being way too overpriced and competing with better stuff.
Which means you can't have that many of them, and they can be gunned down after they do their thing. If you had lots of units doing it, and they were cheap to have other toys too, then it gets nastier.

So I guess the real solution is that BA should have discounted Vanguard or assault marines.

dont know if its true or not but i heard black templars are going to be getting an update the same time as ba codex is released

Yeah. They can take them as Troops, for example.

Scoring Vanguard maybe, assault marine troops definitely.
.

In fact, I'm eagerly waiting for the new BA codex.
I already have a large BA army, but it hit the shelf when the jervisified 'dex came out.

Baah! We Totally need Codex: Rainbow Warriors

Talkin to plants, being purged by the SoB, and oil slicks on the forehead... I see much win
------
But seriously all we BA players need is some Assault Marines with fleet.

Like wuestenfux I am waiting for the new BA codex. With a real dex instead of that Jervy dex my friend would have done a lot better in the Ardboyz semi earlier this year. My BA are waiting while I play Eldar for now.

I even put my Eldar on the shelf when the 5th ed came out.
Now I play DW or vanilla SM or CSM.

Latest rumors at Warseer say that BA will be released earlier than March 2010.
January seems to be an option. That would be absolutely great!

Don't think so. Jan is 'Nids.

Though the two armies were kind of packaged together with Space Hulk - I can see them continuing that theme.

Double release?
Or twin -dex? Maybe like old WD ( turn the mag to read the "other stuff" )

December or February:?

Oh, so there is going to be a double release of Nids and Blood Angels in January.

I guess that's what the cryptic Brimstone comment meant.

No way, a double release has never been done before!

GW can't put out two releases in the same month. We'll see I guess, but I think it's bs.

I hope that everyone is wrong and they do Angels of Death again and Dark Angels get even more overcosted and worthless that people destroy the internet under the weight of NerdRage.

C'mon Jervis you've thought about it haven't you?

But seriously what happened to the codex book Rowboat says? Blood Angels misplaced their copy?

Sneak peak form the flavour text of the new Dex.

Brother Lestat:"My lord Dante, our recent shipment appears incorrect, Instead of Landraider Redeemers, we got 666 jumppacks."

Dante: "Jumpacks for Everyone! I'll show that Shrike chump! Blood for the Blood Angel God Emperor!!!"

Weeeelp. Hopefully I'll beat my friend's BA army before they make Mephiston more kickass. So far if I don't shove Runes of Warding halfway down his throat he turns into Alucard and rips my Eldar to shreds. The good thing about a real BA codex is that I can show him where it says no Death Company Terminators with wargear.

For the record, could we get the quote in here or a link to it?

Now listen carefully, for I will say this only once....

Vanguard are Fast Attack ffs, read the codex! Seems everyone thinks they're Elite but they're not. I can see a lot of p***ed off BA players if the VAS don't become Fast Attack as well.

I have fear.... if they are going to release the BA with a Codex of their own, I might even start a little army just for fun.

@ Shaman = LOL that could happen indeed.

Don't fear it.
Go for it!
