Oh man I want a plastic Inquisitor to add ally into my army with those silly grenades.

i think the iQ28 group I'm in would explode with a mix of WTF and Squee

heres hoping we get some cool minor Xenos too

I would expect that it would be Daemons and not Xenos, keeping with the current status quo of where things are in the scheme of things

Granted, this is a lot of wishlisting, but I would love the models a Sisters or Inquisition board game would bring. Imagine a Necromunda-style game starting off with Inquisitional, Genestealer, and Chaos bands fighting in the Under-hive of some city. Lots of potential there (insert fan-boy squee right here).
A boardgame would be a good place to put plastic Inquisitional Warbands... granted, I don't think that they would need to be as modular as a normal release. They could be push-fit with 1-3 sculpts of each type of henchman.
Wasn't there a rumor a while back about a GW employee gripping about being required to paint a Sisters of Battle Army vs some unknown alien force in the future? Could that refer to a boardgame like this rather than the 8th edition starter?

sounds plausible, especially if the rumors of marines vs chaos startset are true

I wonder if the units in the book will all be "Imperial Agents" Faction or retain their own ones - Aren't the Stormtroopers on their own their own faction and the entries in the Astra M Codex - Astra M faction?

Be interesting to see what turns up in the next batch of OOP models - would seem an easy tie in?

Which is a shame honestly. as they could do sculpts for Demiurg, Hrud and others heck even a Rak'gol .

Judging by their resent releases, I see this as the most plausible to actually happen.

Look at the death watch game/ starter box thing. People thought that would be a myth also

You can easily do a hero, squad of sisters, heavy weapons, and some new unit vs chaos (or anything really) and people would buy it in boat loads. Then based on how well it sells, they do the Calth treatment and see you the boxes separate for a crazy price

Just shows those leaks in the past were controlled by GW.

It shows that people have been legit fired and removed from positions where they can "leak" for pushing it and going to far.
That is why the ones we rely on now play it safe

Also Atia said there will be a re-print of the Island of Blood Box up for pre-order on the 17th? The Christmas present I didn't even know I needed. Never got IoB but the models are some of the best imo especially for a starter set. What a month this has turned out to be.

GW manages to rescue 2016.

???

Reprint the starter box from a game they killed? Would it be AoS'ed?

Woops sorry yeah, it seems it will be AoS'd but guess you've read the Dakka thread by now, ma bad.

Island of Blood had rules for Age of Sigmar late last year...

If you want to continue the Island of Blood discussion it would probably be better to do so in the Age of Sigmar thread.

Are there any units that have different Factions depending on which Codex they appear in - I think its the case with Stormtroopers - is it with anything else?

Servitors. They have Space Marine and Astra Militarum off the top of my head. I think the Dark Angels, Blood Angels, and Space Wolves have the same Servitors as well but with a different faction.

While I think it's highly plausible we get a inqusitor board game since that marketing strategy has been $$$ win for GW recently. I seriously doubt it's coming in 2-3 weeks considering every other board game release has been teased and leaked months in advance. I do believe sisters are coming and i am fairly certain GW will market the gak out of it

The same could be said for most of the common marine gear. Rhinos/pods/tanks/etc. Some have subtle or non-subtle differences depending on the codex as well. IIRC when the new AM codex dropped, the chimeras there got some significant rules changes from the ones in the inquisition e-codex. (Or so I recall from discussion at the time, not owning either book)

Others differ in faction army-wide rules. Like BA's rhinos being fast, or SoB's getting a 6++

LotD might have their own faction from the mono unit codex they had, not sure. But they are still in the marine book.

I fully expect all units in Codex: Imperial Agents to be granted the additional faction "Imperial Agents".

The purpose of this is to allow your Ordo Xenos inquisitor to get in the Deathwatch Land Raider or Corvus rather than troll alongside. Same for your Ordo Hereticus and Sisters.

I expect to have a proper Imperial Agents detachment made of formations, allowing me to add the different Ordos and add-ons as I see fit.

This is going to make me buy many models.

Some formations would be very good. I just love Inquisitorial warbands as they to me, are the most customizable gang in terms of both modelling and gaming and they just look really nice having a band of unique individuals mixed in with a vast army of soldiers who share colours and uniforms.

I disagree. At least I disagree that pics are released from GW not word of mouth that people could have been fired from you could be correct then. But what for the last year or two all the pics are blurry. I mean come on, even my kids taking pics on their cell are clear so how the heck do all the "leaked" pics are always blurry?

So I still say GW released the blurry "leaked" pics at the least.

At risk of going far off topic, I think that it is very safe to say that Games Workshop did not leak Ahriman on Ebay.
Most of the leaks used to just be people who got their white dwarf early, no more and no less.

That was easily the best bit of this month's White Dwarf and I look forward to more of this.

*dakka explodes*

Although I quite like the art it is based on, the mini doesn't grab me. I am really relieved because as a SoB fan I thought I was going to have to bust my ass trying to get one of these.

I must have it.
Sorry guys, if I missed it: is it a limited run? I need it. Damn, GW, Damn.

The Bolger looks a bit clunky and shoes are a bit crab like, but iirc the art , everything else is just like there. And it looks amazing.

UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUH BABY, COME TO DADDY!

Time to call my FLGS owner and ask him kindly to save me one! (Heck, chances are he already knows he has to save one for me )

Am I a bad person if I buy one and hoard it until I can flip it on eBay for $$$?

Yea, nice picture, but the mini is kinda meh. The legs/feet are too chunky.

Hmm I like the art but don't like the mini,

now is it the sculpting or the painting that's the problem

edit: it's the legs, not long and thin enough (although they probably fit better with gw 'human' proportions)

YES YOU ARE
Dont Monopolize on the Fact that SoB Players have been waiting for this FOREVER

She's hideous.

I want two.
