There's the original list from Betrayal (Book 1).
This was then updated in the Crusade Army List red book with the units added in Massacre (Book 2) and Extermination (Book 3) along with some rules changes (not entirely sure what the exact changes are though, just that there's a few of them).

Then Tempest (Book 5) and now Retribution (Book 6) have added more units to that list, but don't actually include the full army list.

Hopefully the new Crusade Army List red book will include these new units along with the rules changes...

Pssst... the wings are also supported only by the engines. That's a bigger problem than the upper fins, I'm afraid.



Ack! You're right. The fail is not usually so strong with Forge World.

Much easier to design as opposed to their typical design of engine on top of, or under the wings?

Correct, all the new units and changes to the old units will be rolled into a new Red book sometime this year. Solar Auxilia, Imperial Army and Knights get their own book and All the special characters and units are in a book together with updated rules.

Iron Circle are in the new Red Book that was sold on Saturday. Peturabo can take a min of 4 and max 6. They can also be taken for Iron Warrior Praetors/Consuls. Reason for that is because A) To help protect his generals B) To keep an eye on or kill his generals because he doesn't trust them. They should be on sale soon, roughly £60 each

Inferno late this year, Shadow Crusade early 2017 and possibly Signus late 2017 (not decided)

They are based off the Domitar which cost £48 each. Iron circle have a little more detail plus a hammer and a big shield, so slightly more expensive


Blood Angels can add Assault Cannons to Predators... for free. Very cheap Predators

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices.

I think the 4 min is only for Peturabo, not got that particular book with me though so might be wrong.

Nothing was shown I'm afraid, Only told what was inside it. Knights do get the new GW ones included. A question was asked about Army and SA special characters and it's something they will get around to.

A few other units will be getting some changes as well.


Has there been any updates to Death Guard in book 6?

Any new consuls?

Two attacks that become extras on 6s. it's not bad. Also, they give hardened armor to the IC that joins them if they are in b2b, so there's that.

I thought it was just 3 shots.

While that does make them better, there's still the matter of them landing only one attack 50% of the time and not having a way to get to melee quicker.
HH is its own game though so I'm not sure how that works out. In 40k they're not spectacular.

I just had a silly idea. Attach a vigilator to the iron circle so they can outflank...... lol Would kinda defeat the purpose of them as body guards for a beat stick HQ. But haveing them outflank into the enemy deployment zone to play golf with the enemy tanks using their grav-hammers would be prety entertaining.

D nerfs, LoW nerfs, less scoring and a fewer MCs certainly help them. Like, the biggest thing they do is let you walk around with 4-to-24 t7 Ablative wounds for Perturabo or another IC.

I've been out of 40K for a few editions, and haven't kept up with 30K either, but are there characters that can teleport down that these could join.

Sadly, that's not how the Deep Strike rules work... HOWEVER, it IS possible that Perturabo will get an update that let's them do so. Which would be dope as hell for my pincer strat, and sadly super abusable.
