The Grey Knights got a Dreadknight, which is a bit like a Terminator riding a giant Terminator. I WANT TO GO ONE BETTER. Give the Dark Angels a DarkKnight, which is like a Dreadknight but for us, but also give us an DarkKnightKnight, which is a Terminator riding a giant Terminator riding an EVEN MORE giant Terminator.

Our last edition allowed a Company Master to carry a vast quantity of wargear -- for example, you could give him a pair of Lightning Claws AND a combi-melta AND a plasma pistol. If a mere Company Master can have all that, give Belial and Sammael MORE STILL! Belial: twin Thunder Hammers, a Multi-Melta built into his left eye, at least five kinds of grenade. And a jetpack. Sammael gets his Land Speeder, but a bit beefed up (14/14/12, maybe), and if the enemy destroys his Land Speeder, he RIDES OUT from the flaming wreckage, on his jetbike. Which by this point is also a lion. On fire.

The page that was linked to, on GW's website... did anyone else get an empty icon in the usual list of four shinies that you must have for(ced down your throat) that army?

Methinks January looks good! I'd even be willing to place a bet on it, and I'm quite skittish normally.

I do hope we get a flyer that is storm talon sized... so I can use mine as a count as. I have no idea where it'd fit points-wise, but that is for another thread.

At any rate, I am eagerly awaiting any further news about the Codex. I'm really hoping the rumors of a new plasma-based Predator are true, as I'd love to run one with a Vindicator (or two! ).

Ok, that will be quite enough.

Rule #2 is stay on topic.

Rule #3 is don't spam.

Respect the rules and leave the thread be if you don't have a serious comment to make or news to submit.

Interesting page..looks like they're getting ready to launch soon.


I wish this was new, but it isn't. At least 6 months, maybe as much as a year ago, somebody else linked this same page. GW has placeholder pages like this for a few other things as well, I cannot remember what the others were for, but I will try to find that old thread linking to them.

That said, fingers crossed that we get a new dex in January. I really hope they get it out in time that I have a chance to learn the new book decently before having to play in a few events at Adepticon.

Wow, pretre. Nice bit of detective work there, though what a way to deflate my enthusiasm.

You'd think someone would clean up the pages and site map, from time to time, eh?

CRAZY TALK!

The amusing part is that the number is basically sequential with some bit of time or batch reference. So you know that all the 440XXX numbers were done at the same time. I.e. The BT, WH, etc so on were all done when they revamped the webstore last. Armies with newer releases (SoB, Necrons, etc) have higher numbers.

I'm thinking the DA flier will be larger, in between the Talon and Raven, sitting at the $66 price point of the Heldrake rather than the lower price point of the Small fliers or the high point of the Raven.

As for the page linked, when I go it has 2 blank spots, and 2 filled with the SM Landspeeder and the DA company Veterans squad.

Hahaha I love it.

But seriously i really do hope they beef up Sammaels speeder to something like 14/14/12 and 3hp because at the moment 14/14/14 2hp just isnt worth putting a 205pt HQ into. Its not even like he's got a lot of firepower, just and fragile!

They are when you have 2HP, open topped and things like Gauss and Haywire knocking around. Also seeing as the assualt cannon range is only 24" its puts you right in range of multi meltas and the like. Plus rear armour 10 means a bolter can open you up on the rear with 2 glances...

Tell me that isnt fragile.

Well, they really have no scale for the price they charge for fliers though. The Necron Doom/Night Scythe has the same number/size sprues as the Heldrake. Yet the two are widely priced, even though you get the same amount of plastic in both boxes, which are also the same size. -ing GW and their pricing schemes....

That isn't fragile. If you get within range of a unit with Gauss Blasters or Haywire Grenades you deserve to lose your skimmer. You are so much faster that it's almost silly.

Hahaha I love it.

But seriously i really do hope they beef up Sammaels speeder to something like 14/14/12 and 3hp because at the moment 14/14/14 2hp just isnt worth putting a 205pt HQ into. Its not even like he's got a lot of firepower, just and fragile!


AV14 vehicles are fragile? Wut?


They are when you have 2HP, open topped and things like Gauss and Haywire knocking around. Also seeing as the assualt cannon range is only 24" its puts you right in range of multi meltas and the like. Plus rear armour 10 means a bolter can open you up on the rear with 2 glances...

Tell me that isnt fragile.


That isn't fragile. If you get within range of a unit with Gauss Blasters or Haywire Grenades you deserve to lose your skimmer. You are so much faster that it's almost silly.



Ok.... but when you have to get close enough to their guns to use your guns, its kinda fragile....


My point exactly.

And i think the rumour mill might be running a bit dry at this point.

On that topic is anyone else getting a little more anxious about this release, as its getting very close now and still we've heard nothing solid just mountains of rumours served with lots of salt that so far have been pretty hard to digest!

Honestly, I lost interest in the DA once the rumour mill started flowing.

Too much Wardism, and while a lot of it likely won't turn out to be true, I just don't see anything in there which appeals to me.

I'm hoping GW reigns him in, but time will tell I guess.

Therefore, I conclude, Valve should announce Half Life 2: Episode 3.
