I think the new wraithknight rules are FW trolling GW - anyone with a brain can see it needs extra points added or a bit of a nerf, but, no! you're even more screwed!

I'm not keen on the new leviathan dreadnought - again, FW trolling GW?

It is to the contemptor, what the 'devcent' is to spehs muhreens - especially the feet.

Can we call this new dread "Big McLargeHuge"?

Leaky Leaky? Lovely!

Eldar rules leaks courtesy of Over My Cold Coffee:



Interesting that the Lynx is no longer a superheavy, but a 5HP flyer!
Warp hunter back to being its old, brutal self...
Firestorm also much improved and nasty now - 6 shot, rending, twinlinked, skyfire, interceptor with laser web (no jinks for zooming flyers or fast skimmers!)

Oh look, more Eldar with D weaponry....

At least they don't have Holo Fields anymore, I wonder if the Craftworld Lynx will become the same or not.

Well, the Warp Hunter has the Dispersed rule - roles of 6 on the d-weapon table count as 5 instead. That's one way of toning it down. Pulsar and all the rest, not so much...

Still, nice army and I've been mean to expand my tiny collection of Corsairs - hope they re-release the Firestorm. That thing looks nasty

I"m a bit late but does anyone else find it odd that the Tau vs Admech display from FW has no casualties besides the riptide in the titans hand? I couldn't figure out what was wrong until it hit me that there are swarms of combatants and no fallen bodies

Maybe it is just a paintball scrimmage?

So the tau and ad-mech have teamed up!

IIRC there are models strewn across the ground in between the titans.

Has this been posted?

If you look at the picture showing the whole battle, in the middle towards the bottom (directly below the reaver titan) I am sure there is a burnt out knight chassis... just the legs and a chargrilled hull.

Not quite the littered bodies your are after but quite cool!



Just noticed the knights chainsword arm and armour surrounding it as well!

Yea I think the board is stunning but that is definitely something funny about it. I remember the table last year with Ultras fighting Word bearers and it had bodies littered all over the place.

Just a funny observation.

Hmm, there are some bodies, but not many. I remember someone mentioning that some of the models on it are painted to a really quick, poor standard too, so I reckon it is just WIP and will be properly completed soon. Unless the esoteric weapons the Adeptus Mechanicus are using leave no corpses...

I guess they turned persistent bodies of, due to framerate issues..? Wait, what?

There's a huge difference between bolters and infantry weaponry compared to Titans going after infantry.

Solar Auxilia and Transfers

Oh yes, that's my Christmas all sorted out.

Hydra Dominatus!

Imperial Space Firemen!

I blame those Sallies - always burning everything

that 255 point Lynx with the twin-linked triple-D cannon sounds amazing

I love the Axemen. And the transfers continue to knock it out the park.

The amount of detail on those Velataris is incredible.

I want one of those axes for a conversion O_O

Normally I'd agree but...huh?

Anyway, axes akimbo - I love it!

The transfer sheet Alph...

I see it now so, OK!

Anyway, in that case, yes, Hydra Dominatus!

For the Emperor!

Some of the ork stuff has gone up in price as well. Been eyeing the killbursta, and where it was previously 105 pounds, it's now up to 110. :(

Those axe guys look cool, but what do they do in the game?

Where is this "over my cold coffee"? Are there any more pics? Also, I like the lynx as a 5hp standard vehicle, I find the alternate fire mode interesting for the pulsar. Since this is the first unit with one that can jink, they felt the need to give it a way to still fire. No such love for the sonic lance it seems... Honestly wish they hadn't, dropping that much firepower would have allowed people to think twice about jinking. With the alternate fire mode, not so much of a choice.

Think Storm Troopers with power axes instead of rayguns. If you make them Household Retinue (an elites choice) they gain +1 WS and Preferred Enemy (Infantry), meaning in assaults they'll hit at WS 5 and eat marines like no tomorrow.
