It cut off the point cost of a wraithknight. That is hilarious.

Fingers crossed that we get some Thousand Sons leaks soon!
I'm hoping that they get the same buff to psychic as Tzeench in AoS where you match the lowest dice with the highest when casting and denying. That may make them more viable considering that the whole pool of psychic dice deal we banked on has been removed...

We have most everything. Scarabs and exalted still missing. Arian has a plus 1. Maguns plus 2 or 3 possibly.

Do you know if it was 420 base, or did he factor in the price of the default upgrades?

420 base, no upgrades.

Whew, so glad I didn't buy all those drop pods I was planning on buying a few months back.

I am really hoping we don't have to wait months for Chapter Tactics. That was the change I was most excited to see. At this point, might as well just "Counts As" Blood Angels, Dark Angels or Space Wolves. Is there any reason to play Vanilla if Chapter Tactics aren't there?

Drop pod rules have been leak and well damn they are pretty bad. Can only carry troops (no dreads, or cents :| ) and requires 9" bubble that everyone already has for 100ish points.

Hold on. You may be applying 7th edition rules that no longer apply in 8th.


Drop Pod Assault
... Any models embarked inside must immediately disembark, but they must be setup more than 9" from enemy models. Any models that cannot be set up because there is not enough room are slain.

Disembark
... Units that disembark can then act normally (move, shoot, charge, fight, etc.) during the remainder of their turn.


I see no mention that the squad has any restrictions on what it can do after they Disembark from a Drop Pod. That would definitely justify the points cost if your Marines could move and assault after they get out of the Drop Pod.

Drop Pod comes in at the end of the phase. You can charge, but you can't be closer than 9". It'll happen sometimes, but not always. And not being able to Pod dreadnoughts sucks.

To ne fair, the Dreadnought Drop Pod was FW's thing first. Giving it back to them only seems fair.

Unfortunately you're wrong, that's a command rhino thing

I'll take my turn to have some salt. Might of heroes is literally the Boon of Tzeentch spell, except you get all 3 options at once.

Thanks, GW. That's wicked silly.

Looks like they took a 7th Torsion Cannon to the 8th Ed Torsion Cannon rules.

Hmm, not sure I like the fact I didn't see the executioner plasma cannon for AS. Maybe it'll just be 3 plasma cannons? Also the exterminator used to be hvy 4 twin linked now its just hvy 4! Lame.

Apparently they know space magic better than the fething good of magic and change, too.

Also, how do you save pictures from instagram? Because I will just post them here if I can.

Are there anymore chaos space marine or Daemon spoilers yet ? ?

Rhino Primaris

Cannot transport Primaris models

We have always known the Rhino Primaris was going to be in there. It is the Rhino half of the Space Marine Command Tanks. The Land Raider Excelsior is the other half. It can't transport Primaris models. This makes me very angry. Neither can Land Raiders.

Seriously, GW wants me to buy a whole new motor pool for my Space Marines. This is absolutely moronic.

In other news, a Rhino Primaris that overcharges a Plasma Gun will be removed from play. 10/10 I will NEVER be using this function on my Rhino Primaris.

This trickle of leaks showing chopped off, glare laden pages is killing me


I need the tables for the datasheets to work out what can take what............

Space Marine Command Tank.

I thought Boon of Tzeentch effected a Unit? The SM one only effects one model. Too many pages to go back and look.

So will a Leman Russ with a plasma cannon.

So, does every army have snipers now? Or ways to get character models?

(I think nids will have to use mawlocs...not sure).

Thoughts?
