- exactly like we theorised. All have multi-meltas and all can swap for plasma cannons/Volkite culverins.

BA dual hand flamer moritats have been gotten rid of, chain fire rules have had another sentence added to them saying that weapons which don't roll to hit can't use chain fire.

Garro from the Heresy 30K forum is also compiling a list.

Assault squads are big winners. Not only do they get the 75 pt cut, additional bodies are -2 each. And this is big -- especially for a WE player like me -- apothecaries can take jump packs (and bikes, great for WS and DA players)! Their unit restrictions are now mostly lifted too.

Yea according to someone Breachers are cheaper in squads of ten, but +25 points for a full twenty man squad. At least recon marines are cheaper.

No power fist on primus medicae anymore......Boo means I have to rip the arm off mine and put on a new arm prolly destroying the shoulder pad as result.......

Glad I only did that for 1 of my legion forces. Hate when they take away options on a character as it can really ruin a model.

Hear, hear. My chainfist PM is very sad right now.

My WE chainaxes are happy...they're now +1 S, apparently.

From the outhouse to the penthouse, baby!

Ugh I hate the drop pod point increase, its already 65 points per pod why change it to 100

Less about the pod itself than what you can put in it. *cough* Leviathan *cough*

Shhh I want a cheap transport for my murderous washing machine

Because when the eldar release they will have to be supreme lolz.....cant have shielded leviathons at an already high point cost having a chance....

Dont really feel some of the point increases were warranted esp when you think of the other 30k army books already printed and the future ones most likely coming down the road.

Some of the point changes seem strange. The Javelin going down in points, but gaining extra abilities?

Yeah it is making me think there is a chance this is fake or partially wrong.
