I don't like the price one bit, but I love Titans and paid way more than was wise before. I have made up my mind and will buy one, but it had better be magnetisable, I will want all the options I like open to me.

One more thing, when this is released I will be doing a lot of shopping around.

Check these guys out on your shopping trip

No vested interest other than they're my closest independent, but while they don't discount as deep as some, they do offer free shipping on everything, which may well work out better.

They're still new and getting off the ground, so I'm sure if their price is competitive they'll appreciate the business.

If thats your local independent you might want to do them a solid and let them know there webstore is breaking some establish GW rules, would be a shame if they lost out on the ability to get GW product

They are likely to be my shop of choice. I've not bought from them before but Dakka member Col Gravis is one of the owners and he's done a good job with Curious Constructs and never let me down with that enterprise.

Then you might want to do me a solid and let me know what they are?

I have never pre-ordered a GW model. I will be at my local store this Saturday with $140 in hand to pre-order this one!

Possibly helpful. I haven't read all 30 pages, and i'm not about to

Could this be put it the OP? It's semi-important, and it will help newcomers to the thread.

It is already in the OP. A bit smallish perhaps, but already there.

The added size would help emphasize the fact that unless you're playing with escalation these things aren't exactly an everyday kinda thing as many in the thread have suggested.

BrookM:
Oh, didn't see it there.

I'm sorry, but as said, the info is there, it isn't my responsibility to shove stuff in people's faces to pander to some people who abdicate their responsibility to read the info because they have no attention span.

Uhhh it might not be a deficit in attention, it may be a lack of screen resolution. Just sayin.

Yeah, the part picture is pretty small and I was looking at it on a tablet.

Well in all honesty when some people tend to pull subjects off topic to constantly voice criticism/vendettas to/against others it tends to make people scan topics rather than read through due to all the noise.

Crap...now see what you made me do

Woohoo Knights. Finally got ahold of my local store and have decided to order in Bulk hehehe

I let the first, essentially baseless dig that had no relevance to you, and had concluded before your post, go, keep up this line and I'll smack you with the little yellow triangle.

If the Tau get to be Battle Brothers I think I'm done with it....

I'll just start putting Optimus Prime and Godzilla on the table.

Reminds me of the famous scene from the movie "Der Untergang":

anonymous source on Faeit 212 wrote:Things are on information lock-down at the moment. Some bigwig at GW is furious about the inside source for the Knight rules leak. It's codex BA all over again. Nobody at GW appreciates or tolerates this.

They worked very hard to keep the Knight out of the spotlight and now everybody already knows about it. These leaks might even affect the release schedule, "soft" releases like the Chaos Chosen might be put forward and "hard" releases like the new IG pushed back. GW knows that they don't have any control over the last 48h, but they are adamant to do whatever it takes to make sure that their announcement will be the first in the future.

GW managers are raging again against reality and punishing the customers. Now Tom Kirby has to shoot one designer after the other, until the traitor reveals himself

GW... are adamant to do whatever it takes to make sure that their announcement will be the first in the future.

"Whatever it takes" unless that requires actually making their announcement first.

they better buy a printing press... i'd guess that leak was from the printers...

is the white dwarf out yet?

because I thought it didn't come out until saturday.

The reason I am asking this is because I have the white dwarf in hand.

its a shame GW believes that the best way to drum up interest is to announce things a week before it goes on sale

Apparently GW management doesn't know the meaning of the word "hype"...

Step 1: Pretend you can control the Internet.
Step 2: Punish the players by pushing releases back.
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Continued flat sales based due to increased prices vs shrinking sales volume.



Again, normally the joke is "profit" as the fourth step, but this is GW.

You're correct, you have it early.

Anything we don't already know, or other releases that slipped the net?

A classic example of "gak or get off the pot"
Hey GW: A few years ago, you had official previews on your own website of the next 40k, Fantasy and LOTR releases and double as much customers. Think about it!

its neat though that GW is freaking out and raging about the leaks....and dreamforge is running a flash sale on its models...

"GW may be changing the release schedule" "Anonymous Source on Faeit"

So close to the trustworthiness hat trick!

Sorry I didn't read all 40+ pages. Just wondering if you thin the titans will have be yet another add-on detachment like codex inquisition, or if running up to three of these in addition to a primary detachment will eliminate your option to take a traditional allied detachment?

Do you think they will have a new allied matrix, will chaos get to run these?

Not really, its actually underwhelming. the two pages listing the Knight Errant and Paladin are the only rules in the book. there is no Force Org or ally chart.

" they can be used as a primary detachment of 3-6 or may be taken as an ally detachment up to 3 imperial Knights." The Fluff isn't bad but nothing you can't really find via the internet, But the Kit looks amazing.

There is two transfer sheets shown in the book, one bing A5 with like 282 transfers on it and it says that one is contained in the kit. Another sheet is shown as well being A4 with just as many transfers on it.

Houses Terryn, Hawkshroud, Cadmus, Degallio, Griffith, and Mortan are listed as Imperial Aligned houses and on the transfer sheets.

House Krast, Vulker, Taranis and Raven are listed as Mechanicus aligned and on the sheets.

Along with what looks like Heraldry for 5 Freelance(Merc) Knights.

No new allied Matrix. and going by straight rules as written Chaos could use them.

but there is no fluff in the book regarding Chaos Knights

The first post has a pretty good summary of all the known stuff to date.

Ah, the news in the decals will put some people at ease

Confirmation on price, and also any news on release of book would be good.
