Still though, 6 man Long Fang squad with lascannons and a WP to cast prescience. Bye bye flyers.

What does a massive blast do in this edition?

I believe it is a 7 inch template.

Anyone heard about the blood oath supplement? Khorne vs ultras?

Why do they update the strongest codexes first, it makes no sense to me.

Just the blurry pic

So if Khorne/Ultras are the next campaign, how off were all the rumours?

No.

Khorne/Ultras are an event-exclusive campaign book for people at Warhammer World.

[edit]

It might feature the new Rhino/Landraider-variant from the event?

Wha... bu... oh that's stupid.

Jeezus. "Puts Damocles Command Rhino is cart"
Think of the possibilities when allied with guard? OR Knights.

Oh, cool! I didn't imagine GW would be doing something like this with FW covering Word Bearers vs Ultramarines. I'm going to be all over that! Of course, I haven't yet finished all the tyranids I impulse bought for Shield of Baal... oh well to the shelf you go

No way, event exclusive? That can't be right

"So I say to the guy, "How you going to get the tank down to the planet?" And he goes, "I'll just put it on the ship." And I go, "If you've got a ship that can carry a tank, why not just put guns on the ship and use it instead?""

All I can say is:
"Pie from the Sky from my Space Wolves!"

Well that and Stalkers with Interceptor!

One sprue for both? That's a surprise, and does suggest limited availability

Yep, makes sense that its a limited run sort of deal, a shame that its "limited" in a single darn store.

I wonder if the rules will be white dwarf only. What White Dwarf is it Again? this weeks or next weeks?

Oh good command friendly sisters with multi melta to go full ham ballistic against fliers?

since they are firing snaps at full ballistics?

Oh boy.

(rhino target skull not the free skyfire one. whats the point? )

I could see the sprue becoming a webstore exclusive

Those command tanks are strong options. Definitely will provide some new juice to the Space Marines. So many cool options.

Try one or two pages back.

Wow that rhino is now way better than a razorback, what about its point cost

at least both can be converted easily. People have put the agis defensive line becan on rhinos for years now to convert Damocles rhinos. The Twin-linked plasma guns and Gav-cannons wouldn't be to hard to convert. The only thing you lose out on is the bling. But that's what FW vheclie doors are for, and look alot nicer anyway.

Nice stuff but... Forgeworld did it first?

Just as long as they don't get rid of the Prometheus, I'm happy.

Gw and 40k proper have never acknowledged it so how could it go away? The FW rules don't have and expiration date so they last until replaced or a big edition change happens that makes them unplayable. I'd say you're good until that happens.

The Prometheus is referenced in the Redeemer entry (at least it was in the 5th ed book). The Salamanders techmarine who created the Redeemer was quite disappointed to find out there was already a land raider variant in use designated "Prometheus".

Huh, never heard that one. That's actually pretty funny.

Merging threads:

Thought I would throw this up here. I read thru some forums for new space marine rumors that orbital strike would be becoming str D. I shrugged it off at the time, but then forgeworld released this models rules, which give it more credit than I originally gave it.

Spoiler:

also just noticed it changed to 7 inch blast

 warboss wrote:
I don't think each individual rule deserves its own thread but in any case you're apparently incorrect regardless. The Fw HH orbital strike is str D but the 40k GW one for the new marine command vehicles is str 10 massive blast ord 1 yadda yadda.

Just got in, I was going from memory there. It was the Fire Lords who developed the Redeemer and the Salamanders that developed the Prometheus.

... he named the new variant "Prometheus" after the Terran god of legend who brought fire to men. He changed the official designation to Redeemer only upon learning the name was already taken by a variant developed by the Salamanders...

Sucks that Grey Knights can't take either without allying them in. The Rhino Primaris certainly would help their reserve game and give them some native access to skyfire besides using a Storm Raven.
