Question for anyone that got the Knight Stratagem cards set that came out with Doom of Molech; what exactly is in it? I looked at the contents listed on GW’s website and it doesn’t make sense when compared to the content of the book…

I haven't had the chance to order a pack yet, but they should be the same as in the book...unless they have included additional stratagems.


Update: At a guess, the "8 House stratagems" are exclusive to the card set. Being as it contains 8 cards where DOM has only 7 houses...they include an additional new house? Hmmm. Eitherway, it'll be at least another week before I can get my grubby mits on a set...

I've got the cards. Two of the Houses have two stratagems - one of which is Devine. One house has none.

The two stratagems of the other house that has two have an identical effect but a different name, which is weird. There's a theory that one of these was intended to be for the house that has no strat of its own.

This whole thing gets the thumbs down from me. The strats should obviously be in the book, where there's plenty of space. And it looks like they've messed them up a bit, which is more evidence of poor/no editing in this game. I love the game but I hate trying to figure out what the rules are supposed to be.

Yeah, that’s what I was wondering about; the cards have content that isn’t in the book, which is daft. I’m not going to bother then.

I'm not sure I'd say not to bother. The Molech book is good overall I think. The knight stratagem cards are only needed if you're running an all-knight army though, which makes them a pretty niche purchase within a niche game.

They seriously should have written the house strats into the book though. Not doing so is incomprehensible. What on earth happens in future if they bring out rules for more knight houses?

That’s what I mean. I have Molech; I’m not touching the cards.

Warlord Weapons are back in and can be ordered in the UK. You'll have to click on the page to see

Less than 12 hours this time. Quake Canon is gone again. FFS.

Update: I just got off the phone with Games Workshop customer support and they seem to be quite concerned by the stratagems missing from the book. I sent them some photographs of the Knight House pages showing just the traits table but no stratagems. They said they would get back to me soon with an answer.

Hopefully that means that this was all a printing error and we will get an update or FAQ or something with the full text of the missing stratagem cards published soon. If anyone else wants to give GW a call and let them know they have the same issue I don’t think it would hurt anything though.

Hopefully it's a printers error as in that case GW should get a full set of free correct prints of the book in so everybody can get a replacement

(if the error was on GWs part with what was sent i'd imagine an pdf is about right)

Quake Cannons are available to order again at the moment, at least in the UK.

Well...

Questions and Answers

Battlefleet Gothic a couple of years off as it is such a big project.



Spyres are still a possibility.



Titan Chassis: bigger than a Warlord (not Imperator and Light Scout are something they want to do for AT).



Epic maybe one day.



More Squats are possible in Necromunda.



Aeronautica Imperalis was teased in a dog fight video!!!

From battle bunnies:

Glad they actually made the knight upgrade in plastic, I hope they did include a left hand fist, and maybe left hand Rapid Fire B.Cannon and Thermal Cannon also.

Kinda disappoint they didn't make the Atrapos first, probably the best models to lead a Knight army imo.

Guess I'll be buying a bunch of new full kit questoris knights. (glad I held off and didn't buy more Knight box)

The new terrain would make nice base also.

Aeronautica teaser:

The more they reveal the more it seems like they had no plans for AT beyond the three titans and the two knights. The "Titans of Legend" sets, dice packs, and stratagem cards just seems so lazy.

Come on guys, even if its months or even a year away at least let us know something interesting is on the horizon, because right now it seems like you've run out of ideas.

Well, they've just revealed the third knight.....

and later EPIC....

Ummm all these were listed on their to do list long time.

So the Aeronautica Imperalis stuff is the same scale as AT? and will be compatible? I thought it would be GW attempting to make their own version of actual X-wing.

Aeronautica already existed so this is likely just a reprint with some "freshening up" around the edges to bring the fluff/story into line with AT. The existing models are already in the same scale (close enough, anyway) as the new titans so it's just a matter of what will be done in plastic and what will be made in resin.

I take it all back, they clearly had a long and well thought out release plan!

RazorEdge wrote:They could reveal Aeronautica Imperalis...

There's no indication that it will be compatible with or even in scale with AT. If I had to guess I would say this is their attempt to cash in on the popularity of X-Wing, although five years too late.

I just find it odd that they uploaded the AI trailer in the 40k section of youtube rather than Titanicus if it is indeed Titanicus scale.

Why it can't be both?

Everything they showed today is good and looking forward to the release dates( especially the Acastus ).

Was there any mention of the Cerastus weapons? Also, does the Questoris upgrade include more copies of the standard three weapons?

Did anyone there get a look at what symbol is on the Loyalist dice?

See for yourself.

Sorry, I should have been more specific - The Traitor dice have the Eye of Horus on them. Did anyone there get a look at what the opposite symbol is on the Loyalist dice is?

Absolutely thrilled that they have done Tempestus transfers. Never thought I'd see the day.

Aeronautica Imperialis is indeed the same scale (or at least as close as makes almost no difference).

I'm expecting air rules for AT in the next book at this point.

...and don't forget that the plastic kit development cycle is much longer than for books or resin, so new kits take quite a bit of time. Then they need to fill the intervening time with something...

Not seen these posted up in the forum yet. New Resin Carapace weapons for the Reaver ane new Resin Terrain.

Disappointing to hear the Molech book was victim of the typical quality editing that seems to infest GW and the game industry in general these days. Is it too tough to have someone off of the design team proof the
book before you send it off to the printers, and again before the print run? This lazy, sloppy stuff is getting old, like Warlord leaving a half page of significant rules out of the recent Erewhon book....
