The only weak point in the CP is how vanilla the Rhino looks, even after the garden fences have been added.

If I could've asked for one extra thing in this wave of Legion 'dex releases, it'd be a vehicle upgrade sprue for each of them, for cosmetic purposes.

Yeah the CP is great, the rhino is a letdown but ill use those w my canilla csm army and buy some deimos rhinos to use w/the DG (and sex them up a but w some nurgle and dg upgrade bits).

One amusing bit I noticed is the fluff text decribes it as containing a "powerful" rhino, which makes me think that whoever they have writing this stuff has no idea what a rhino is nor have they ever played 40k.

Grey Knights got a vehicle upgrade and nothing else

Oh, the "upgrade" for the Dreadknight. The Nurglings and Rippers are still laughing at it....

But it goes perfectly with the Grey Knight's one Primaris Scale Marine... Senor Crowe.

I expect two GKs to dissappear though: GK Techmarine and GK Librarian.

or it originally had something else, and when they swapped it to the rhino they just did a find&replace

A rhino has a pretty good horsepower, right?

And for a full-grown rhino razorbacks, birds, snakes, fish and every predator around should be no match.

Never mind...

No releases this week, but the last line of the Sunday article is “Does anyone hear howls upon the icy winds?” so I assume next week is going to be Space Wolves.

... you mean soulblight right - howls from the undead and dragons.. not wolfies, couldn't be wolves

At least it is another week of wallet recovery.

I mean, yes please? I’m game for that personally, but was not my first thought.

I need the vampire on skeletal steed real bad, but figured we just got the launch box, so it’s probably going to be a month for the full release.

Could Warcry be heading into a new location?

The new vampire stuff is basically all regular release for AoS.

Warcry itself feels like its stalled. Honestly my impression is that its going to be removed as a product and replaced with something else that fills a similar slot, but which isn't at its core built around chaos vs chaos. It might also come with GW reworking how the kits for it function and interact with AoS. One issue with Warcry is that models would have different weapons and base sizes and yet in AoS they'd be "one unit" profiles. It either had things looking messy as a unit or had lots of multiple sub-profiles that just made them more workload to run than they should.

I feel like GW might be rebranding and building something that's basically like Killteam for 40K - regular infantry packs that get skirmish rpg level rules. Thus taking a bit of flare from the smaller game, but making it work seamlessly with the core larger game.

Since the howling bit is in the part that talks about what's on Warhammer Community this week, I assume we'll get another model reveal for Space Woofs. GW said that there are more models for them than what was shown at Adepticon.

More Space Puppies!

Digging the characters, not so sure about the Terminators though…

i like the guy with the two wolves. very good use of a tactical rock

They all look great. SO many new puppies with this update.

So what wolves are not showing?

The guy on the thunderwolf. Anyone else?

Those are spectacular. Someone hide my wallet from me.

Here, you can mail it to me, I'll watch over it like it was my own.

Those are all fantastic. Mjolnir is a little silly, but optionally silly.

Chris, behave, you just bought Emperors Children...

Did we know they were back to a dedicated codex? Or is that new info?

They’ve already shown the book in the army set, it says codex supplement on the side.

These models are all great, I wonder if I could get away with using the wolf guard as a base for some 30k Varagyr.

Blimey, these new Space Woof characters are good. Looks as though I’ll be buying some actual 40k models soon…

No more Santa sled Grimnar ? Praise the Emperor!

Ah yes all these 1000 year old veterans who suddenly fit in Primaris sized armour.

Agreed, they're some lovely looking models, along with the rest of the range that was already previewed. Its not my army, so its not really a big concern for me but Arjax and his silly hammer could have ended up in the bin without me shedding any tears. I'm happy that the santa sleigh is gone though

Looking at the range as a whole I do wonder if we'll ever see a decent set of releases for White Scars, the two chapters step on each others' toes in a multitude of ways. Animal iconography, furs, birds, a focus on assault, stormseers, runes etc all seem like big areas of overlapping design space.

Space Wolves have been ruined by this latest update.

How on earth are Space Wolf players supposed to go on without the might Battle Sleigh of Logan Grimnar?

There truly is no God.

Cool dogs though.
