They also need to release the missing Knight options like the Acheron and Castigator builds for the Cerastus kit, or carapace options for the Questoris kit.
Heck, just proper card terminals would be nice…

They could probably fit a set of knight weapons plus 3 carapace mounts and set of cerastus weapons all on a clampack sized upgrade sprue, but resin is more likely.

Was reading the "Notable engine wars" part of the AT rule book recently( I'm not one for fluff so I initially skimmed over it ) and the entry for "The Balthor Sigma Intervention" was very interesting...
In a nutshell, Legio Osedax are having a hard time with the World Eaters and their "super-heavy tank" chums. Then - this is pretty cool - some Eldar titans intervine and even the odds for the Loyalists. The traitors get reinforced by Legios Fureans and the "xenos titans" disappear in typical ninja-fashion. "Our work is done here" and all that cheesy gubbins.
Considering two events in this part of the book have already been made into expansion books - Beta-Garmon and Molech - could the series also include a book for Balthor Sigma too? Now, unlike suggesting that official tanks and eldar titans are on the cards, could it be that GW would instead suggest proxying in models - such as matchbox or corgi tanks and an Eldar Wraithlord to stand in for a Reaver titan - but using the standard terminals and just special rules? They've already gone this route for the giant reptiles in Doom of Molech, so maybe a Balthor Sigma expansion doesn't have to be too far away either...
Any thoughts?

I doubt it. Part of the point of GW games is the models, so saying “just use any old crap that looks nothing like an Eldar vehicle” isn’t going to happen. Not every tiny reference is going to get a book.

The dev team has said on multiple occasions that they still have years of Imperial material to do before they even think of Xenos.
While I dearly hope they get there eventually, I wouldn't hold your breath.

Well, I just noticed that and saw that they are already doing that with the giant reptiles - and those weren't even mentioned in the book. But then again you could be right, and it might not come to pass.

Just to clarify, I hadn't suggested a xenos range but merely substitutes for a single mission that might feature in a future expansion, similar to what is already being suggested by GW( well, FW ) for DOM.

Yeah, the book has to be done. ^_^ Automatically Appended Next Post: A comment on Forgeworld's facebook page mentions that the next book is due for August / September. I doubt that is official somehow as they usually keep things under wraps until the last moment...

Great news on the book and the terrain (domes & spires).
While it may not have new minis, I'm looking forward to the new Maniples and Stratagems.

Indeed. I like the spires and am looking forward to the book, but for the love of jeebus FW, the one advantage of resin over plastic is that it doesn't have any of the production timescale restrictions, you can go from final 3D model to production-ready in an afternoon, so use that advantage already ffs. And if they're not going to, if they're going to dripfeed this stuff out at big intervals even though they don't physically have to, then use that time to make them in sodding plastic.

Agreed. They could have done a Warlord weapon or two since the release of the game along with Questoris upgrades. And for the love of the Omnissiah - where is that funky train set???

Was that train ever confirmed as something that would be released? At the Open Day when the boards were first shown off, the train was just described as something the designer had designed for internal use (rather like the containers they had all over the container yard table originally designed for a Calth Ultramarines vs Word bearers display).

I really am hoping for the new dakka this Friday. Or indeed the Friday after, spread out the spend a wee bit.
Either way, it's payday next Tuesday, so I'll be able to sort myself regardless

Dunno. It was in last August's First Blood battle report, where the Questoris used it to sneak behind the Reaver and give it a good spanking.

With the new book at $35US, and the Spires pack also at $35US, it looks like I can buy what I need without giving up an arm or a leg this time.

Its great that the book is due for pre-order but with the knight terminals out of stock, and no upgrade kits to coincide with the release, it seems a bit redundant.
Whinging aside, the Ferrox maniple's "Knife fighters" rule seems very powerful. Makes me want to put this Knight business on hold for now and get a melta-chainfist Reaver instead...

Looking forward to being tempted by the new Legio colour schemes again.
Hopefully the focus on a "smaller" scale conflict will make the book feel less anemic than Beta-Garmon in the fluff department.

This may have been mentioned already, but will the rereleased GME include a sprue of the new Warlord weapons in it or will it have the same exact contents as previously?

I'd assume its just a reprint. The idea of the GME set was for two players to split the contents and cost, so having the identical sprues would make that easier.
