Dark Angels are up on the New Zealand portal on the GW site:

"Grim Resolve" confirmed. Not sure what it does yet.

**Fireraven**

Thanks Again Gw looks like my BA jump packs get set back again at 17 points per model. Space Wolves sky claws at 15 but is in line with C:SM.

**Slayer-Fan123**

That's none of the info we actually wanted as far as I'm concerned.

**Relapse**

I think the time has come to get the 60+ terminators I have painted and on the table.

Dang I only got 51 DW , 72 total over all the SM chapters. if Belial allows terms to be troops again and the price drop to 35 pionts per models like C:SM comes out to 47 Deathwing terms

Just Basic Gear Ofc. Still 47 terms turn 1 sounds pretty good

Sounds like a fair number of lads to plunk down on a table.

**MasterSlowPoke**

It confirms that they don't have Chapter Tactics (Dark Angels), which actually matters.

we could always pay the 10 for TH/SS go down to 36.8 terms with that nastyness and go 1st turn. 10 no scatter with the other 26 slightly scattering and go yep next turn smashing your face. good luck with those 5 squads of terms. 6th one being 10 strong.

If they keep their special rules, I can't see them dropping to 35pts. It would make them more attractive but I don't see it.

A Man can dream

Anything less then 40 PPM and Belial keeping tactical precision for 1st turn death wing then assault squads/ drop pods arriving turn 2 no scatter will be worth it. If the Libby would just get DW assault when he up grades to term armor that would be solid gold.

**angelofvengeance**

The UK site is having some problems it seems- just won't load on my computer.

**BlackTalos**

UK Web Store pre-orders are up! (Dark angels Releases 20/06)

I thought there'd be more hype and posts on here? =P
Everyone too busy completing their orders?

**angelofvengeance**

New artwork

Gotta say those Guardians of the Covenant look badass!!

That would be way in advance of the usual, as they don't usually get things until the Wednesday/Thursday of the actual release.

Pretty sure the vanilla SM codex was scanned and uploaded before the preorder went up.

**Matt.Kingsley**

tbf, the SM scans were very early, way earlier than usual. The Wednesday before release (not pre-release) is more typical (as Kan said).

I went through this earlier, if they keep it in line with space marines, 35ppm, free chapter tactics basically, if not were looking at 37/8 ppm more than likely, dw at 35ppm would be excellent though, that's 350 for a naked 10 man sqaud, 1480 for 40 termies with dual plasma cannons, that leaves plenty of room for other stuff, like hammers, fliers, a company master etc. Whatever, it's looking good

**Waaghboss Grobnub**

I find it HI...FFING...LARIOUS, that not even 15 min after the pre order of the codex went up it was sold out... REALY GW? no on will pre order this CODEX (DA nerds EXCL) untill they know it aint as gakky as the last one...

**thenoobbomb**

The Guardians of the Covenant art is old.

**zgort**

What time do you think they will come up for preorder in the US?

**Waaghboss Grobnub**

Well. Im on the dutch site, and we are 9 hours ahead of the US... so in about 8 hours now i guess? IF they follow this time zone difference...

**evancich**

IIRC the pre-order stuff shows up after noon in USA

**zgort**

Noon isn't bad. I figured I'd pop on and see if any of the limited were left - slim chance of snagging one of those I suppose, yeah?

**oni**

The video is hilarious.

AWWWW... SSOOOOME awwww... sooome AWWWW... SSOOOOME

1pm EDT.

Heard Demi company grants full BS during over watch! Apparently it's in one of the preview pictures. And full company grants free transports like C:SM

**bullyboy**

full BS during overwatch would be ridiculous. I love my Dark Angels, but I also play Harelquins and my buddy has DAs too. Harelquins would be as good as useless vs them unless I get multiple allied CADs with Autarchs with banshee masks.

Ridiculous never stops GW

**Kanluwen**

That's a bit of a different story though, as it's a pair of Battle Demi-Companies, one mandating you take a Chaplain and one mandating a Company Master.

That does make me happy though.

Only the one with free transports needs two, as it specifies in the description.

**Kanluwen**

Mmm yeah, my bad. Either way it's niiiiiiiiiiiice.
