Dangit where is that IA book and the ursarax...
How could you possibly have designed a unit that is iron man chest laser jet pack cyborg bears and taken so many YEARS to release it?

glad to see they are upgrade kits, not full kits. I have 2-3 squads of skitarii unbuilt thanks to getting started boxes.

This may be the final push I need to get two more Get Started Skitarii boxes: more base Skits for FW upgrades.

Let's hope they're sold as upgrades, rather than bundled with the plastics.

Have we any idea of what troop types they represent? I too have a couple of Skitarii boxes knocking around so these will be instant purchases upon release.

Same here. In fact I specifically decided not to build them when the first pics of these showed up a while back. Wanted to see what was coming first.

Or you know... my effing Knight decals. Yes, I am broken record.
But I want the new Knight too. That thing is a MONSTER! If the rules down change from the previews, it will make a great Knight Aspirant. Hehehe.

Probably best to email FW such requests directly!

Sagitarius with a Big F'in Gun
|
The chaps with the shields are Secutarii Hoplites; typically used for boarding parties.
I made 5 of my own 3 weeks back, using a Tomb Kings battalion and leftover Vanguard bits, expecting these guys to come out in October.
The two with the gun things are Peltasts.
I heard they were releasing a load of Dark Mech stuff before the Secutarii. I'm pleasantly surprised.

The one thing i don't get about these new Skitarii are if they are just 40k or if they are going to be for both 30k and 40k. They were orginally unveiled at a HH weekender after all, but everyone is talking like these are only for 40k.

They will get rules in the next IA book. AdMech and RedScorpions vs Tau.
If FW gives them 30k rules as well, that would be awesome.

I think its pretty much that. They're intended for both 30k and 40k but their rules will be debuted in a 40k book. One of the next few books after Inferno for the HH series is suppose to cover the Martian civil war, Mechanicum vs Dark Mechanicum and we're suppose to see the 30k era Skitarii in that book. The fact that FW never shies away from selling Titans and has featured some Titan legion in the fiction of each HH book means FW could well have them show up sooner in a book preceding the martian civil war book.

Makes me wonder if we're going to see any equivalent to Doctrina Imperatives in 30k. My guess is that we'll get something similar but generally cooler.

Do we have an ETA on when thent IA is being released? The most I could find was "this summer". Finally, do we know how much of the 30k line will become 40k legal? I really want to pick up some of the FW automata (Castellax/Thanatar especially) but Id rather wait than spend that much on a toy I can't use.

One of the few official forgeworld previews we have of the book has shown a Vorax and a Thanatar, so it'd be a bit trolly of them to not include those models in the book.
