Welcome to the future friend. GW have learned from the mistakes of Kirby.
Execution force was pulled back from stores and betrayal of Calth has been stated it was limited since its release by multiple reliable sources who were the same people who rumoured thier release months in advance of thier publicized release. Welcome to the current future friend!

Hm, the dataslate shown previously doesn't state that they can take marks. But I am glad that the rules are going to be in something other than the board game. I mean, I figured they would be, but it's nice to get the confirmation.

It comes with one full knight paladin and one full knight warden. 4 shoulder mounts only, but 2 battle cannons or melta cannons, 1 gattler, 2 chainswords, and one thunderstrike gauntlet. Just magnetize at the elbow.
So you can't two gattling cannons? Shoot, that seemed to be one of the best combos.

Not from ONE box by the looks of it. Probably for the best.

You can by rules, but not by the kit. Kind of like trying to kit out Devastators all with the same weapon when it only comes with two of each.
If you buy two full Warden kits, you can make one with dual Gatlings and one with dual Battle Cannons. But with the box set you can't. Bleh. Still, conversions or bit stores.
They had the Wraithknight and the 'Orkanaut Godbreaker sheets as web freebies that week, didn't they? Or were they in issue 90? I can't find them, now,
Anyone else have these? WD89 was the Godbreaker clash minigame, so 90 would make sense, but can anyone confirm this?

I.e. 2 standard ones + Renegade?
I have a feeling that this comes with only the boxed set exclusive transfer sheet, given that it contains both Terryn and Renegade transfers. I would love to be wrong.
That place is the harsh dark future far left with only war left.

It is sadly not correct, there was only Godbreaker Clash and its datasheets (for Imperial Knight and Stormsurge). The latter were available at the free downloads section of Black Library but were removed during the last weeks.
I hope there will be more - an entire book of sheets and rules for Knight combat would be great

It's ok! I have a left over hades autocannon from my forge fiend kit. I think it should fit fine!

I think they're still there - I printed a couple of copies out off Black Library's page - over the weekend - I just can't find the damn link to them now as they've taken the direct link down.

I've learned to wait for GW to announce something as limited release. My FLGS's supplier has a tendency to tell the owner that things are "limited release" just so he will buy more for the shop. Not saying this is the case here, just saying that it does happen.

They are limited, butvonly in the sense of " we made a million, when they are gone they are gone."
I've heard you can expect BaC to last late into the year easily.

Oh, you mean limited in the fact they are not going to forever sit on store shelves but are still freely available from GW direct and likely also from FLGS' who order in stock.
Limited in the same way that every other product produced in any other hobby or entertainment industry is limited. You know, once it stops selling it'll slowly be phased out. Or maybe you can still pick up a hard copy of Warcraft 2 somewhere. Who knows.

Y'know, which tends to be the solid indicator of a product being limited release.
Yes it's called common English you should try it. This is NOT limited quantities. This is a limited release.
Which means GW will continue print runs if they feel each run will sell out Just like they do with every board game.
I don't know how you can misunderstand this as it's exactly what I stated before.
Execution force is on direct only as they are no longer producing any more manufacturing runs. It is not selling enough anymore contrary to your prior claim it being a permanant product.

FFIW: an email from GW says it isn't limited release:
GW Response to the Question!
Thank you for your e-mail.
We can indeed confirm that this will be a range item and will be available for the foreseeable future, so fear not! There will be time to add this awesome set to your collection.
While GW isn't that reliable about future products still coupled with other infos and the biggest "limited" advocate being Nafka which is known garbage spouter means I'm willing to put my money on it not being limited so rather than rushbuy it now I'll aim to buy it later when I can afford it more easily.
Hope it's true and isn't limited, because I'm not going to pick it before the end of this year. Or if it's limited, let's hope they do re-runs of it like the Space Marine Stormwing box.
