Chaos gets nothing! Just like always.

I joke (maybe. . .) Most likely the same amount of things they got during the tank WD rules.

Chaos will most likely get their flyer rather in their first wave or in the rumoured 2nd flyer wave alongside the Voidraven and aTau Flyer apparently. If there is a 2nd flyer wave it wouldn't suprise me to see the Chaos flyer in it freeing up a slot in the Chaos first wave for something else.

In proud GW tradition I expect a Stormtalon with a spiky bit sprue for £10 more than the standard version.

Pictures will most likely leak before the day's end, like they do with each month's White Dwarf. Tomorrow at the latest.

Must.....have.......pictures.....!

As I already have a decent idea of how the Stormtalon looks and how it plays, I'd more curious for which codexes it becomes available. Vanilla marines is a given as it was seen in Ultramarine colours.

True, I'll bet june willbe a big month for white dwarf, or which ever month the rules come out in. The last WD I purchased was SOB part 2.

Where?

So theres pics?

Beasts of War, from which the sketches on page 7 come from, have stated they based the Stormtalon sketch on an Ultramarine version. I'm assuming they worked of an inside source with a White Dwarf picture or the box art.

Also note the White Scars vs Orks vs Necrons battle report which was announced in May's WD. 3 armies which just happen to get new models that month.

Yeah, since white scars are the speed freaks of the astartes, it seems fitting to use that chapter to show off the gunship in action.

Apparently a mechanical dragon...

I'm really hoping that Space Wolves will be able to use the Storm Talon, I'd really like to field it. Although that rumored Escort rule makes me doubt that they will get them

I hope every sm codex can use it. It would suck if every chapter excpet for BT SW and DA can use fliers.

I also hope that, but as mentioned I see it as a bit unbalanced with the Escort rule.

But then again that wouldn't be the first unbalanced thing in the Space Wolves codex. so here's hoping

Megatron is intrigued by your ideas, and wishes to subscribe to your newsletter.

So far as the thread, man I'm simultaneously super excited (news stuff) and kinda annoyed with myself (I still haven't finished painting my Spyders/Wraiths/Stalker!).

If the Escort rule is real, I wonder if you could attach them to Drop Pods for a guaranteed first turn arrival...

An interesting idea, say hello to my dreadnought and his hovering friends

Though no worse than for the other 4 non marine armies that wont have flyer models/units and probably better than the 2 armies with existing flyer units with no models.....personelly I hope that only SM and one other probably DA get it and SW and BT get a third flyer type just for extra diversity and individuality. Though I don't play any marine armies atm so I wouldn't be one of the folks waiting so....

I wonder if Chaos Daemons will get a flyer at some point?
Getting bored waiting for pics now.

Wouldn't be surprised if that rumoured Chaos 'mechanical dragon' was actually for Daemons, and CSM get something akin to a Hellblade/talon.

Everyone need to stay on topic please.

And by way of clarification - asking for pictures is NOT on topic.

The second pictures are available, you can rest assured that they'll show up here.

Thanks!

Here is what I received from a FLGS for pre-orders:

2 June:
Necron Night Scythe/Doom Scythe
Ork Bommer
Space Marine Stormtalon Gunship

Cost is 45.50 USD

Apparently new rules will be in the june WD

Not sure if already posted .. if so .. many apologies

I don't think we knew the price yet, so that is nice.

$45,50 will probably mean 39,- Euro.

If shops are taking preorders, it's because they've received information with the prices.

A little less. For comparison, the Ravager is 49.50 USD and 39,- Euro. The Talos Pain Engine is 44.50 USD and 35,- Euro.

I posted the USD CAD prices yesterday afternoon.
I've been holding off posting the SKU's

From Faeit 212:

via Darnok
Multiple birdies have mentioned sightings of an Eldar flyer though. "In the warehouse", make of that what you will.

via Eldargal
There is supposed to be a second flyer wave later in the year, it isn't beyond the realms of possibility that we will see an Eldar flyer then with WD rules like the incoming batch are presumed to have.

Not sure if this is in the thread already.

While I agree about chaos vehicles just being the SM one with a spikey sprue, isn't it a bit odd to suggest they'd charge more for the sprue? Chaos and SM rhinos cost the same, vindicators, LRs, predators, all the same price. So this is a bit (lot) inaccurate.

It's a reference to the Chaos Bastion, which is just the Imperial Bastion kit but with a sprue of spikes for $10 more.
