Hopefully, Daemonic Possession will also grant a 5+ Inv, if it is still an upgrade.

There is a mention of that. All cult troops are elite, and to take them as troops, you need to take a HQ with the corresponding mark.

makes sense.

Hopefully they will manage to even out the cult troops to make Emps Kids and 1k sons more deirable and Plague Marines less of a Must Take in every game.

I'm looking forward to the new codex.....trying to convince the wife to let me get an iPad so i can get the DigiDex.

*lights cigar* well gentlemen, it was nice being in the shadows for a while but... IT'S TIME FOR SOME CHAOS!!!!

I am probably more pissed because I was excited for new rules and models for the main army I play. Have they ever done this release schedule waffling gak in the past?

What?
GW don't announce their release schedule, why are you assuming they have changed or don't have it planned?
Because some rumours said CSM codex in August?
What makes you think they have changed their release schedule?

To be fair, the rumours all said "Chaos in August". And it looks like we are getting Chaos Daemons....so the rumours were half right.

Peronally i thnk half the rumours tha are leaked are put out there on purpose by GW in liue of a marketting
department.
Who needs an advertising campaign when you have an interweb full of rumour-hungry forums to advertise for you?

Oh yeah, I missed that.

Poop ...

Mark of undivided I guess then

Abadon has all 4 marks doesn't he? He would be quite useful for taking all the different cults together, assuming you wanted them all anyway.

edit: I seems odd that the only release next month will be daemos. Surely there will be other things coming out. Should we keep our hopes up for the flyers or should be ditch that too?

i'm not gonna lie i squealed like a girl when i saw PLASTIC plague bearers. I now will do my demons. OH HAPPY DAY!!! Also those prices are not bad to be honest.

So all this means no Tau flier this month? :(

EDIT: I can't math

um... yes you can. Roll 10d6. The chart goes from 6 to 66.

A chart that went from 6 to 66 would be 61 options

I'm gonna guess it isn't 60 options, but an old-style d66 chart, like in Realm of Chaos/Lost and the Damned. So roll a d6 for tens and another for ones.

Updated to reflect split to two threads.

I gotta say I am super disappointed 40k needs a new codex now its been ages. One more month with no army updates this is getting really lame.

Umm. Chaos Daemons are getting a mini-dex add-on for their codex. Chin up!

Video of the new WD.

Last page shows a dark angel fighting a chaos space marine, Rumours of the starter set.

The new daemons stuff does look very nice

That should be added to the OP. New plague bearers don't look all that great and idk if I like the flamer but the Salaanesh chariot looked really cool.

That's been added to the Daemon Thread that Kroot has. We're trying to separate them.

Wow... Soulgrinders in WHFB...LOL!

Nurglings look awesome, I'm glad to see they continued their throwback look on the Demons with the new Plaguebearers. They look great!

Why not? They brought random charges, challenges, Look Out SIr! etc. to 40k. Who said fighting medieval fantasy and futuristic battle need different things?

Also, the warp works in mysterious ways.

Screengrabs for the screengrab god!

That is a ton of nurglings on that base... rofl. Loving the new Nurgle stuff... wonder what changes with the Flamers in 40k?

So that last page, is it for the Starter of DA vs. Chaos, or just Chaos or just DA? I cannot quite tell from the shaky camera.

Its a pity I dislike Slannesh and Nurgle cas they are some sweet models, bravo GW.

The only thing I am really struggling with is accepting that picture of the fantasy army with a soulgrinder with defiler legs, whats the explanation for the most advanced mechanical construction belonging to a demon?

Edit: It looks like a dark angel librarian? Not sure but I am certain the symbols on him are dark angels.

@Brother SRM: I reposted those in the Daemon's thread.

I love it because I love Slaanesh, sadly I play Chaos Space Marines and these wonderful toys will not see my army outside of Daemon allies. However, my wife plays Daemons. Perhaps I can get her to find more love for Slaanesh in her forces.

Hmm so it basically confirms starter set next month. Now to have a guess at the chaos release.

Have they ever done a codex and starter set release before?

If they have not, I hope they do this time.

Me too It would be so epic but be so harsh on my moneys, so so harsh. Unless I can some how sell a load of gear on diablo 3 for £100 even though I have only made £4 since the rmah came out, I shall find a way.
