Now that we are getting solid confirmation, I present a summary. I will try to keep it up to date, but it looks like a feeding frenzy is about to start

Please do me a favour and check wen the summary was last updated (noted at the bottom of the post) and then read ALL the posts that are older than that before you comment or ask questions. It is not that hard to do.

NOTE: There is a photo of the Stormraven page doing the rounds.

PLEASE DO NOT POST OR LINK TO IT AS IT BREACHES THE RULES OF THIS FORUM!

Any interesting info from it has laready been included in the summary

Sanguinor, Exemplar of the Host

He adopts the classic “exalted angel” pose similar to Celestine with arched back and arms flung wide. His face is passive with shoulder length, wavy hair. His left hand holds a small grail, his right holds a sword.
Originally Posted by The Voice

The Guard is a typical cross guard, slightly embellished and with no Quillions. The Grip is about a one and a half hander, and the Pommel is quite plain.

Gabriel Seth

He has fairly standard Power Armour, sparsely adorned with some scrollwork etc, and his backpack sports a cloak, small wings and an Iron Halo. His right shoulder pad has trim shaped like a saw blade, and his left sports a Flesh Tearers symbol with a single wing, similar to Tycho’s heraldry. He is posed running forward, pulling back for a two-handed sideways sweep of his blade and has the standard yelling head.

Lemartes, Guardian of the Lost

His armour is adorned with many rivets and purity seals. His right shoulder pad is a jawless skull, and his left sports an embossed Blood Angels icon. His torso has a harness for his Jump Pack which itself is adorned with chains and charms and has the Blood Angels icon embossed on top of both intake vents. His helmet is a haloed skull with pipes to the sides of the mouth, but this time the eyes have lenses and the halo is more subtle.

The head is bare with a fairly typical short-haired Marine face in a “grumpy, but not yelling” pose.

Commander Endova wrote:I agree. Estimates of five or six Dreadnought variants seem ridiculous. I think it'll be 4, maximum. Regular, Furioso (replacing Ironclad), Venerable, and the unique Moriar. As for quantity, can't be more than 6, by taking a MotF or some equivalent.

BoLS wrote:

"A little bit of background: another main theme of the codex is that the curse is becoming stronger. In reaction to this there is a kind of philosophical schism inside the chapter - nothing like civil war but an ongoing dispute. The Sanguinians try to adhere to the principle of their primarch and take the curse as a test of character. They try to overcome the affects and stay as civil as possible. Dante is the leader of this faction and it is the more influential. The Faustians however try to use the curse. They believe it was a gift of their dying Primarch to his children, that he gave them his strength. But it was wasted for millenia by overly hesitant chapter masters. The Faustians were a minor group and only prominent inside the Flesh Tearer Chapter. The ascend of the Lord of Death however sparked a fast growth of this group. Mephiston was the living proof that the black rage was not a curse but a only locked door on the way to the full potential of the Blood Angels. Sanguinary Priest Faustus is the most influential member. He is the lord of the tower of Amareo and has studied the black rage for centuries. The successor chapter have similiar groups. The only exceptions are the Flesh Tearers and Angels Sanguine. The former are all Faustians, the latter all Sanguinians.Speed is one of the main themes of the codex."

We've heard the army is subject to the following special rules:

-Combat squads
-ATSKNF
-Furious Charge
-Red Fury: Unit must pass a Ld check if an enemy model is within 12" or be subject to Rage USR
(Note the lack of Combat Tactics)

Blood Angels - Codex Table of Contents?

Game-Headz has up what appears to be the most concrete list of content from the new Blood Angels book that I have seen so far. Either someone was very bored and made up a false table of contents or this is from a leaked paly-testing copy. My money is on the play testing copy but you never can tell.

From Game-Headz -

Ok stuff is really starting to pour out at this time.

In the UK the feb Wd is showing up and there have been some conformations...
Furiso Dread, and a Librarian Dread!


(NOTE THIS MAY BE the actual page listings, I can not confirm or deny if it's really the one in the new codex, so for now it's just "Fan generated" and not from a GW Codex, take with Salt)

also this got leaked out too.
Its the army list and page numbers from the new codex
Get a look at it while you can ... it came from several trusted forums and trusted posters, I'd rather not directly which ones at this point to keep the ban hammer off them and GW legal off their necks.

Interesting notes ...
1 page for the Land raiders
a lot of Named IC's for several chapters
Honor guard AND the Exalted....they are different people..
2 types of Scout and scout bikers.
Tantalus.... if you don't know don't ask ( or read a couple posts below)
Baal Pread separate from Reg Pred
Mephiston gets 2 pages of entrees
Victor Nergal... a MASTER OF THE FORGE! ( finally....)
Any how enjoy while it lasts
