This game is TLOS?
*turns cardboard dread sideways...*
Its a genuine GW model so its tournament legal 
I don't see how people are somehow thinking that this is a fake. If it is someone went to a lot of trouble to make some very detailed fan art and have it hard bound.

The prefect example of someone missing the point.
Do not underestimate the Squats. They survived for millenia cut off from the Imperium and assailed on all sides. Their determination and resilience is an example to us all.

Its just a shame that they couldn't fight off Andy Chambers.

High quality fan art at that.

The art does fit in nicely with the current art style used for other GW books.

Space Marines were on the cover of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd edition rulebooks.
It's entirely possible that GW will release multiple covers.

So obviously someone has a BRB, why haven't we seen any more snapshots of the back cover/quick reference/etc? Can someone who posts with the op on heresy or wherever clear that one up?

Yes. Yes they do. I have, in all seriousness, seen people (on Warseer) complain that seeing a Codex cover "spoiled" on the forum has ruined their enjoyment of looking forward to getting the book. Don't ask me why these people look at rumour threads and then complain about spoilers, though.
They're flying rodent gak insane, but they exist.

I read someone else in the last 6th ed rumour thread ask whether a spoiler alert could be put into the thread title if there was a leaked picture of the cover so I did that. Just trying to be a conscientious member of the forums, that's all

To all those saying that the marines on the cover are Black Templars: why would a Templar have tactical squad markings, a red bolter, and dark shoulder pads?

Well, seeing the cover art of the Blood Angels codex tends to have that effect on anyone, really.

I remember when we thought the WD spines meant a Dark Angels codex.
Because, you know, surely a Space Marine wouldn't mean a new rulebook. There's more to 40k then space marines....
