GW is doing a good job on only leaking things they want leaked.
I have a bunch of new boxes, but waiting on the codex to be officially released before committing to gluing on my weapon options.
Well, they started giving leakers free stuff on the condition that they don't leak... so yeah it worked!

Well now, that is interesting. More fliers and some interesting psychic abilities and strategems. No new models, but new to us, and new in how we use them. I can live with that.

I know, right? A codex-only release (again...), but with more stuff to choose from and more models to use. Very nice.

I almost stopped using my all-Grey Knights list in 7th edition. my usual opponent would bring a couple HelDrakes and flame the heck out of me, with little I could do to prevent it. Happy to get the air support.

Well i guess its fair considering all the other marines chapters kinda stole the storm raven from the Blood angels and grey knights.

And now we are stealing their Stormtalons and Stormhawks in return!
I have an unbuilt Stormtalon, I am kinda hoping it will be able to be painted Blood Angels red instead of Crimson Fists blue. I suppose there is Secret Option #3, paint it Grey Knights silver!

Dakka does have White Knights and is also rather infamous for it's Black Knights. A new edition brings out the passionate and not all of them are good at expressing themselves in written form. There have been plenty of hysterical responses from both sides so far. So we descend into pointless bickering with neither side listening to each other. So posting here becomes more masturbation than conversation.

cross fingers, maybe we'll get predators and the rest of the Space Marine armory too.
Opinions are not facts please don't confuse the two

I am not counting on that. It doesn't really fit the Grey Knights. Besides, why get Predators when you can get Stormravens?

Maybe on the other hand the stormtalon and stormhawk mark an end to GW's instance on "THE ONLY VEHICLES THEY CAN HAVE ARE TRANSPORTS"

Reboxed Crowe in the newer clampacks? Rebasing for him and Strike Squad?

Well, thats part of his fluff. He uses the sword, powerfull as a Chaos God, as just a normal sword. He should compensate with his rules, but the sword should remain just a normal CCW.

He wont umless they seriously overturn his fluff. His sword is uber powerful. As powerful as Drachnyen. Powerful enough to corrupt even the inccoruptible of the incorruptible. Powerful enough to move on its own and old enough to have a grudge with the first Bloodletter ever made (Skulltaker).
If Crowe were to use any of its supernatural abilities it would corrupt, possess and overpower him with ease. As long as he doesnt its a normal sword the same way a combat knife or normal sword is.
That said, he should get some rule to help penetrate armour and represent his incredible dueling prowess. In 5th Ed, he got the choice between Rerolling to Hit, Attack all enemies in base contact once each or rerolling saves, the choice made each turn. He also had his suicide ability to remove anything that killed him with a 2D6 roll of 10 or less. He also had rending on all attacks, that went on a 4+, but granted enemy units Furious Charge and Hatred when charged.
In 7th he got to use both stances simultaneously, so he could reroll savess, and had the Smash rule, so was always was AP2 and could do a single attack at Str x2. He didnt have the good instantgibb, just a "strike back even if killed rule" which rarely happened as he was Int 6.
I'm guessing something in the middle would be appropriate. He gets to pick between rerolling saves, rerolling wounds, or AP2. He always gets to fight even if killed beforehand.
