Atia has said its Deathwatch vs Eldar?

Yes.

Ah- I missed the "Black watchmen" bit- I misread it as something to do with the black library. [edit- I also missed a few posts!] I hope the eldar get some new plastic infantry models.. or an avatar.

Thought I could manage everything I ordered from Pizza Hut but now im too full, Cegorach's had the last laugh there the filthy Xenos deity.

Man with all these upcoming releases I dont know what to do. Beastclaw's tomorrow, Deathwatch, Chaos updates, new Heresy set with Sisters and Custodes which I have no idea of the time frame of all the other stuff. My wallet is going to suffer greatly.

Edit: Next week....Hnnnnnnnggggg!

Now they're going to rerelease Eldar rules, nerfing things like the WK, Aspect Host, Jetbikes, and Warp Spiders.

Well, here's hoping anyway.

could it be a reference to Ulthwes black guardians?

I have this oddly familiar mental image of groups of Eldar wandering around a park staring into some kind of handheld detection equipment...

Why would Ulthwe's Black Guardians attempt to stop Eldrad from doing anything?

didn't they hide some anti necron uber weapon there?... hiding an anti chaos one doesn't seem much of a stretch

This is sounding like it might be good. I couldn't care less about Deathwatch (where's my Genestealer Cult Codex damnit!) as I feel we have too many Marines as it is, but if Eldar are involved then I'm up for it.

Why am I sensing a Deathwatch vs Eldar campaign or boxed set that includes the plastic Eldrad and Captain Artemis? Almost like the Warzone Damocles boxes, but one Eldar and Deathwatch.

He is very clearly referring to the Deathwatch (the Black Watchmen is definitely an indication of DW more than anyone else). I look forward to seeing what they have in store for us.

maybe the eldars go to the park to catch pokemons!

on a serious note, i had read a rumour ob here somewhere that there will be a plastic Avatar. probably salty though.

Cant wait for the Chaos intro though, I hope Khorne and Tzeentch just wade in and start fething up for the Eldar and Deathwatch, enter the Black Crusade, Cegorach chokes on his brekky, The Golden Throne flickers, Tomb worlds awaken, Hive Fleets emerge, Ghazkull lets out a roar, the Tau their pants.

End times hype.

I believe you're thinking of the Blackstone Fortresses and not the Black Library.

I'm ready for new heros. Let Ghaz and Yarrick finally have it out - winner take all.

Given the size of the rumored Deathwatch release, and addition of Eldar stuff, will this be a set of mini-codices, or a single campaign book with rules for both?



Eldrad is getting a model, but will other Eldar stuff? And Cegorach, does that mean some more Harlequins?

Deathwatch is going to be a full codex. My understanding is it will be similar to Grey Knights in that it will be a low model count army with small, elite squads, assuming my source is to be believed.

Intrigued. New Eldar content is always welcomed. Deathwatch could be potentially cool for me too.

Well, this seems to indicate that more Harlequin content may be coming.

And that is nothing if not amazingly incredible. Please, please let "black watchmen" be connected to the black library! I want Harlequin wraithbone constructs, or even mimes!

Black Watchmen are surely the Deathwatch.

or Watchers in the Dark.

I really hope Eldrad has a few mates accompanying his release as the plastic model looks exactly like the existing model - a great bit of plastic engineering, be nice to see something new too.

it is high time they released another group of aspect warriors in plastic. I would love to see Swooping Hawks or Striking Scorpions to be honest.

Personally I will give members of my family away for plastic Shining Spears.

Can anyone explain to me what this Deathwatch vs Eldar going to be? I read Lady Atia mention something of this, but know how Deathwatch relate to Eldar.

She said something about wait till next week and it will be awesome. Thing is I can't get excited since I have no idea how the two release to each other.

*edit* stupid auto correct.

You know as much as we do, it seems. Eldrad is a part of it though, and harlies may also be.

Thanks Swampmist, I thought I Missed something.

I was surprised they did not do a start collecting harlequins box when they did the other eldar ones. Perhaps this is why.

Deathwatch versus Eldar I suppose?

That would seem to be the most logical conclusion.

 We have a winner. Start of August should be Deathwatch and Ulthwé. End of August should be the Chaos stuff.

So, basically next week is the start?

Yep.
 
September WD wraps up August, and they start to tease today for monday already. GG new GW.

[Natfka's 'Seven campaign army sets' rumor is meant]
 
does this give credence to that huge rumor dump from 2 weeks ago?

Nope, because that "rumor dump" was based on the september WD info, Magnus info aswell as the Eldrad Sprue that was already seen before it got posted ...
 
Some nice ideas, but you are free to ignore the most of it, afaik.

Awesome. Confirmation of Deathwatch next week. Can't wait.

I copied the rest of the quotes to keep the context. This sounds interesting, Ulthwe yay. And quite soon, too

Ah well we can always build more Riptides. Then the Riptide AX-2-0 enters the fray. It has two ion accelerator guns default and can replace them with two pulse blast cannon d shots. Can move and fire all its weapons. Has two smaller weapons on each shoulder. Novalitch reactor gives it a 2+ shield and can overcharge for a 2+ shield reroll. 12 wounds per model. Oh it can only jump jet 3d6 instead of 4d6 since it's slightly heavier.

Riptide AX-2-0 Wings where they can shoot all their weapons twice once per game. Only.... 200 points a model.


it seems chaos is next.

Spoiler:

It seems they had prepared an Ulthwe Studio army

That prepared army also shows up in the Craftworlds codex. It's not terribly new.
