Wow... wishlisting for a codex that is not even 2 years old and is reasonably good?

My most humble apologies most gracious maker of the rules. Please enlighten me as to the correct and appropriate time one must wait for to begin wish listing for their codex. I'm so embarrassed that I broke protocol by wish listing at an inappropriate time. Again, I'm so sorry.

Oh I wouldn't worry yourself with him. Most of his "contributions" to any thread are along similar lines and barely warrant a second look. SoloFalcon is dakka's resident Negative Nelly.

add to decent of angels the ability to deepstrike and assault in the same turn.

You think an entire army should be able to deepstrike and assault, for no extra cost?

Whatever you're smoking, I want some

Not for free, but it would add to the fluffy

I'd love to see an imperial codex that doesn't hand out extra niche units to an already niche army ala deathwing knights when Chaos didn't even get an option for cult terminators.

How strange that I agree with this post

I am amazed to see so many wishlists asking for more and more special rules and exceptions for an army. We should be looking for smaller changes and subtle differentiations in units I think.

Death Company assault after Deep Striking with a risk of casualties.

that would work!

That would be ridicu-crazy. Vanguard is one thing, arguably our most powerful close-combat unit being able to get into the safety of assault with only Overwatch to stop them? Not happening.

I'd like some kind of smokescreen defence on Deep-strike arrival. Something like:
Smoke Grenades
The unit may use smoke grenades on the turn it arrives immediately after arriving by Deep Strike using their jump-packs. If it does so, it cannot shoot or Run in that turn's Shooting phase but receives a 5+ cover save for the rest of the game turn.

Worded specifically to cover two things - Vanguard that fail their charge, and Interceptor.

Never. At best, they should be able to Deep Strike half their forces on Turn 1.

I think blood angels need the ability to recover a wound if they kill someone with a 6 in close combat.

Just wow at some of these suggestions. Why not go all the way and make them all T10 and give Dante 14/14/14 while we're at it.

Seriously some peoples' idea of balance is wayyyy off.

Don't forget to make all units with a Jump Pack turn into Flying Monstrous Creatures.

In all seriousness though, some of the suggestions here are pretty ridiculous.

Some are ridiculous, but then that's why I entitled it 'wish listing' rather then 'balanced movement into the future'

I like a lot of these suggestions. Obviously all of them together would be too much, but there are some good nuggets here. I really like DC Tycho being an upgrade for footslogging DC. I also like letting Dante hit at initiative. Then there's the suggestion that half of BA's jump pack units deepstrikig on turn one. All good stuff imho.
