states " FOR THE ALLFATHER "


--------------------------

Pretty sure it says "try my lemonade".

The last word is Allfather

This table from B&C helps (kind of)

" For the Allfather "

Looks like Grimnar gets back and gets his Fenrisgeance on everyone. =D

------------------------

Thanks Warhams-77 I cross posted some of this stuff on Bolter and chain

That pic is on page one of Champions of Fenris, isnt it?

Thats fine, I m not sure if this is new - well the Wulfen Edition one is.

This pic seems to show that the river dance pose was that particular artists choice, so looks like we can make them look pretty cool with a different vision for the same parts!

Can anyone make out the Strike Force Daggerfist Formation- I am still holding for something nice as I have all the models in the formation painted up.

If, I say IF, Fenris gets blown up, I'm done, 40k is over for me at that point. Space Wolves are what brought me to the game, and I won't sit here and keep giving GW money if they take a huge steaming dump on them.

That's a mature statement. I can almost feel the Mary Sue from here. I mean, it's not like this is the first time the space wolves have actually had like, repercussions from their actions or anything...

oh, wait.

To be fair, the same could be said for any of the established races. They all have their own special gimmick, hand holding, really stupid and awesome fluff. However, from a player perspective, the destruction of any race/faction for anyone who has invested even a single dollar into the figure line of that race/faction has every right to rage quit.

There are ways to 'advance the narrative' that aren't as ham-fisted and stupid as blowing up the homeworld of a major faction. Note, I don't assume that this is indeed what will happen, I said 'IF'. I actually think the idea of a mini-civil-war with the Space Wolves and Dark Angels tearing into each other is a great idea. Summarily and permanently crippling either faction would be stupid though.

What would all those other logos be books for? I see Grey Knights but can't ID any more.

So the word from my store manager is that this campaign is 3 books long.

Purely speculation - i would say that DA, GK and CSM will get something. I would also guess that there will be some other faction involved into this story OR they will do multiple CSM releases (again, pure speculation, it would tie in with rumours of tzentch releases including rubrik marines).

One book should have Blood Angels formations that bring them to parity with vanilla marines.

And the other will have a Sisters super-formation! To launch plastic models, of course.

Okay, well, more likely speculation.... I think CSM will get an actual codex rather than a campaign update, as their book is really quite dated. Maybe a Chaos Daemons codex, too, or a combined Chaos codex? We can only hope!

I think DA are unlikely to get stuff, as they have just been bumped to 7.5, and are quite playable atm. Grey Knights, for sure, though. I'm sure GW wouldn't mind people going and buying more paladins and dreadknights Maybe GK will get a model bigger than DK?

From a plot perspective the DA look pretty screwed and large chunks of them are likely to be found heretical.

Gwayne Li did both Warzone Damocles' logos - I guess he will do the Warzone: Fenris art as well




Grey Knights, Krom, Grimnar, Alpha Legion is what we have read will play an important part in Warzone Fenris II

Especially Krom (Image from the White Dwarf review by www.beardyhammer.com)



There is also mentioning of Xenos in the teaser for next week's White Dwarf. Dark Eldar? Eldar? A Harlequin Start Collecting box?

Fair enough, i had forgotten that DA had gotten a demi-company/decurion style formation already. Honestly i think we will see GW adding in whatever armies dont have a decurion style formation. Off the top of my head GK, CSM, Orks, Dark eldar and nids so i would expect 2-3 of those factions to get a large formation in the next two books depending on what fits into this story (i can just imagine a large ork waaagh wanting to join in this fight, just because, also armaggedon is near fenris, just saying).

This is indeed new artwork

Curse of the Wulfen / Wulfen Edition


Campaign Part II ?


Grey Knights update in Part II ?


As the SW one in this is new and (quote) for an upcoming release what are the others?

BT, Deathwing, Dark Angels?

The logo with the hand is for the Fallen? Cypher?

Spoiler:

It could be Tau. There is a little small rumor that the FSE was getting its 7th ed codex and might have a single model release with it. MIGHT being the big key word from a reliable source on advanced tau tactica. He was more accurate than the accurate rumor posters who confirmed Tau stuff as he seen stuff coming no one else did. This was supposed to be in Febuary so time is right to see if this pans out. He even said it would be slotted into the existing schedule as opposed to being big enough for its own huge event. Why do I have a feeling this will coincide with yet more Tau lore and plot advancement to tie in with end times.

Space Marine Primarchs coming back and equivalent units being made for all factions? Make it so super Farsight is needed.

Good point

Sounds quite exciting!

Some of that artwork is top notch.

Lucky guys lots of the Tau artwork sucked. -_-

Fluffwise though, not sure about the rules yet, I really hope Sad Panda will chime in and help us with this.

Maybe a reprint of the Cypher rules in Warzone Fenris II? They were in the Collectors Edition. When DA got a new book last year.

I just finished Montka and some of the art work in it was really excellent. What are you referring to?

Being manipulated by the Changeling Dark Angels are bombarding planets including Fenris (thats what we can see in the leaked images). Read the end of the book on Warofsigmar. FENRIS HAS NOT BEEN DESTROYED.


And in Shield of Baal the Blood Angels home system was under heavy attacks but planet Baal was not destroyed either.

This, Fenris is being bombarded, it has not been destroyed.

Planets in the Fenris system to be precise, with all the leaks incoming I'm actually not sure anymore if Fenris is even amongst them.

Ad to that the WD page about Krom, now being assigned to protect the Fang, get to redeem himself from previous failings.
Dont sound like he will get the place blown to pieces.

Did GW seriously just take the Norse alphabet and swap letter for letter to make 'for the Allfather' on that shield? That's not how it works, the words should translate as Scandinavian for those words, written using the correct characters. Oh what ever, it's lazy.

I see lots of Wolves stuff, which I good for you guys and I'm happy you're getting some GW love - bit boring though having no actual Thousand Sons to fight as GW is ignoring chaos and keeping the sons as a badly written elite choice. I hope GW actually gets off their behind and sorts that out as I would dearly love to use my Son's in a proper army to fight these Wolves releases.

.

in this case the english phrase "for the allfather" is very close to the real phrase which should be something in the line of "at alfaðin" or "til alfaðin" (not really sure on the "for"-part). alfaðin stems from alfaðR were the R should be pronounced like an are and z toghether. the -in ending were the equivalent of "the" in english language. just as you know of Odin (the Odr). also notice how "al" in alfðin is spelled with only one l. vikings never use double letters if you study rune stones carefully, those types of spelling rules did not exist in scandinavia before christianity. In fact spelling rules didnt really exist, it was more of a way of stacking the sound of each rune to make it sound like the word you wanted.

if you really want it, there is even no use to using separate words. "atalfaðin" is a perfectly correct word for the whole phrase in ancient scandinavian

source; I am swedish, have studied ancient scandinavian at uppsala university and Im fething SlyasR

Seeing as I've got a sizable collection of Chaos - namely Tzeentch + a few Khorne & Slaanesh friends (Nurgle can go gak himself! ), I've been thinking of using this campaign as a way to add a smaller collection of Wolves + friends to face off against my Chaos legions.

If I were to choose say, Bran Redmaw's company, is/has there anything in the campaign books yet about him & his company?

Besides perhaps the Wulfen formation, (as Redmaw's company is known for having a high level of Wulfen cursed brothers), what else would be a fluffy fit for his company?
