Just in reference to the title of this post: No, it's not actually a leak, the WD is just out in Denmark...for some odd reason. I picked up my own copy yesterady at a local kiosk.

Tid bits of note in the WD:
Dark Talon: Rift cannnon (no rules sited), hurricane bolters and stasis bomb (one use only, dropped on an enemy for - 3 WS and - 3 I)

Niphilim fighter: heavy bolters, blacksword missiles (no rules sited, but the battle report later in the issue mentions that the fighter is supposed to be good at taking on enemy flyers, so I guess the missiles are for that), avenger mega bolter/lascannon.

Deathwing Command: multiple options incl. apothecary and standard bearer. A "Champion" wielding the "massive halberd of Caliban" is mentioned and there's a picture (no rules sited).

Deathwing Knights: Terminators with WS5, Storm Shields, power mauls and special rules, incl. Hammer of
Wrath and "Smite" which makes them strike at S10 AP2 for one round. BTW both DW terminators and the knights can be fielded in units of 10 now! Oh and the DW can take plasma cannon and they have USR "split fire"!!!!

Land Speeder Vengeance: AC/HB, plasma storm battery (mentioned in the battle report to be able to fire either 3 small blasts or 1 large blast, I'm guessing plasma stats).

Darkshroud: HB/AC, Shrouded USR and conferes Stealth to allies within 12", and it has a rule that gives units +1 to charge distance (as far as I can read - the picture is quite small and hard to read, so perhaps it's plus 1 to something else).

RW Black Knights: plasma talons (instead of bolters, no rules sited, and not being called twin-linked plasma gun/pistols leads me to believe the rules could be a bit different), corvus hammer (no rules sited, but I guess they are power mauls), they also have the option of a RW grenade launcher.

Sammael: pretty much the same as before, as far as I can tell, though with a 4+ inv.save (which is confered to the land speeder if he chooses that instead) - can't remember if that's new.

Dreadnaught: has option for dual twin-autocannons, venerable dreadnaught has "DW vehicle" rule
Rules mentioned:

DW knights and black knights have a rule called "Inner Circle" and in the battlereport it is mentioned as giving them some form of re-roll in close combat.

New rule calles DW Vehicle

DW assault rule is mentioned in the battle report as ensuring a DS in turns 1 or 2 with no dice roll needed, decided by the DA player before the game begins.

There are more special rules mentioned but no rules sited.
DW, DW command and knights are in the same box.
RW command and RW black knights are in the same box.

This was what I could decern, but there are probably loads more if you really study the WD.

I feel with you guys "over there" who have to wait until the 5th of January for your copy of WD, so I hope my little run down will at least give you something over the holidays.

...and happy holidays once you get to it.

**primalexile**

call me excited!

**Matt.Kingsley**

I'm really liking the look of the last 2.

Hope they have great rules!

**Melcavuk**

The speeder variant looks a little off to me, it might just be the angle of the photo but the turret gunner seems really far forward. Black Knights look cool with twinlinked plasma

**pretre**

Holy crap! Rumors may be correct for once.

**Sigmundr**

Wing mounted hurricane bolters look sexy.

**pretre**

Wow. Bikes with TL-Plasma on the bike itself. Ravenclaw fighter looks great! Awesome Terminators! Not sure on the super land speeder though.

**Matt.Kingsley**

Well, next year is the time I should start to make my space marine army, BA with DA seems perfect from just looking at these pictures....

**phantommaster**

I'm loving the look of those Deathwing.

**TBD**

The wait has definitely been worth it! I like these a lot

The turret on the speeder

The flyers look good too from what I can see. Finally a Marine flyer that doesn't (seem to) look like a box.

Also the Hurricane bolters incorporated in the wings like that.... very nice!

And LOL to the people in the other thread trying to argue we would get just a box of DV Terminators

**lucasbuffalo**

Interesting. Wonder what special rules that Landspeeder of Doom will have.

**Moronic Nonsense**

you just made my day
Thank you so much

**ChiliPowderKeg**

The Stormtalon correction to end all Stormtalon corrections

**ZombieDK**

Now with more pictures

**Mathieu Raymond**

Is it me, or is the flyer just a kitbash of the stormtalon, but with wings? Well at least I know I can use mine soon, then... (and not putting a load of candles on it either)

Lurv the termies, completely. Dark knights are very cool.

The landspeeder Mobile Worship Platform(tm) is not to my taste.

**cygnnus**

The Deathwing look nice, but wow... The rest of that DA stuff is really, really, bad. Obviously, that's just one man's opinion, but wow... Bad.

Belial's pose looks a bit awkward and bland. I have no idea what they were going for with the Speeder variant, but they can't have hit their goal. And those fliers? GW really needs to take a step back and revisit how they're doing flyers, especially marine ones. There've definitely been some hits (Valkyrie, Ork Jets, the Eldar flyers), but quite a few misses (Storm Talon, Storm Raven, Night Scythe, Chaos Daemon flyer thingie, and now this...)

Wow... I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around how bad the Speeder and flyers are!

On the plus side, that's another army that absolutely won't tempt me...

Valete,

JohnS

**Coolyo294**

That Belial model looks really awkwardly posed. Not a fan. The bikes and flyers look nice though.

**tuiman**

The flyers look like based on the stormtalon, this is how they should have looked in the first place, well done gw

**MeanGreenStompa**

Most everything looks great, especially how much the flyer is improved by longer wings. It now seem to remind me of the 'recently deceased' forgeworld aquila flyer.

The Terminators look very characterful and verymuch Dark Angels.

The speeder, however, looks bad, like someone stuck a lot of spare parts on with little thought on aesthetic or functionality. The forward turret looks strange and front heavy, like it's gunner must have had his legs amputated and the thrusters with thrusters on top again, looks like when we see poor examples of ork kitbashing and they just glue extra stuff on ad infinitum.

**ZombieDK**

You cant see it because of the crappy picture quality but most of the biker helmets are Corvus helmets

**Moronic Nonsense**

Hey, It looks like Asmodai is back!

**Experiment 626**

pretre wrote:

Well, let's just hope that the rumored rules aren't all that right...

Not looking forward to seeing BS5, special ammo Termies myself...

**plastictrees**

That super speeder is pretty horrifying.
So, Gunner, Pilot, and extra guy furiously playing Insaniquarium in the back there.
Those little planes are pretty sexy though. Speaking as someone who has modeled little candles onto his marines, the candles on the back are ridiculous.

What have I become...

**ergotoxin**

Thanks for sharing! Is there any mention of the new Predator variant in the magazine?

**Dr. What**

Did anybody else think "Skyray Missile Platform" when they saw the super Land Speeder?

**plastictrees**

Oh snap, and there's Super Deathwing now.

The LANDSPEEDER VENGEANCE looks slightly better with the twin plasmacannons. I guess the other version launches weaponised religion at the enemy.

**spiralingcadaver**

Nice terminators, but, wow... not really liking anything else. Kind of disappointing, actually.

**Mathieu Raymond**

Ridiculous good, or ridiculous bad? The way you young'uns express yourself, I never know.

**Agamemnon2**

Damn, I was hoping for a new generic biker kit. Maybe next time.

**Grimtuff**

Soooo..... do we have an entrant at the 11th hour for 2012's worst model with the Land Speeder Vengeance or is this the first entrant for worst model of 2013?
