What kind of things are you wanting GW to release rules and models wise for 8ed?

I'm hoping for angron, more psychic powers and things like relics and legion benefits(like in the traitor legions book)

At this point, 9th would be nice. That and more objective boxes.

Do you play 30k? It'd be a lot cooler if you did.

I just want my gosh darn Primaris Repulsors and Redemptors before summer is over. A Primaris codex would be nice, with all the rules and some nice chapter specific rules maybe.

For non-Primaris related stuff I just want them to release plastic Sisters of Battle already. I don't even play them, but I know a lot of people that do, and I want them to get some proper models before they go crazy. Some already have though.

Alpharius? Never heard of him.

Dakka does have White Knights and is also rather infamous for it's Black Knights. A new edition brings out the passionate and not all of them are good at expressing themselves in written form. There have been plenty of hysterical responses from both sides so far. So we descend into pointless bickering with neither side listening to each other. So posting here becomes more masturbation than conversation.

Better list construction rules. Really that's my only true gripe about the edition that persists. I would like to see guardians get a range boost so they could actually be fielded.

I feel some things are very powerful (quantum shielding; super heavy models; global re-rolls from HQ units; fliers; conscripts) but I need to play more games to form a better opinion of whether they might be busted.

for 40k

skaven for fantasy. for the under empire!........but it isn't a game anymore.

A new tyranid warrior kit that includes wings for shrikes.

A new Vore kit that can build biovores, pyrovores, and maybe that rumored psychic vore.

A plastic LOW for nids that is roughly knight/stormsurge equivalent in power.

A upgrade sprue for every army that includes bits for relic/artifact weapons/wargear so we can actually model our armies with the real cool stuff they keep telling us exists but there are no bits for.

Models for the FW Necron characters and rules for the Phearehk.


These are my opinions. This is how I feel. Others may feel differently. This needs to be stated for some reason.

1) Plastic for the long-abandoned [finecast] eldar units

2) Something new. Yet more marines is already old. Let the Hrud emerge from the dark places or the hyper-violent Barghesi come howling out of their cordoned off area of space. Whatever, something to shake up the same, old same old.

3) Rulewise, standing on the lack of <whatever> tactics. I like the abandonment of senseless benefits to the playstyle you were going to pursue anyway masquerading as 'character.'

4) Sisters, I guess. I've kinda given up after decades of 'maybe next year'

5) flesh out the mini-factions a bit more. Just a smidge. They've got a lot more potential than even-more-marine marines.





Efficiency is the highest virtue.

What do I want? I just want my codex to come in.... Apparently he didn't send enough to my local shop.

Beyond that some new dark eldar stuff would be cool.

> Codex: Imperial Support (Inquisition, SoB, Assassinorum, IK, all as elements that can/must be added to SM or IG armies)
> Codex: Orks
> Codex: Tyranids

> Battle Boxes for each faction (Eldar vs Necrons, Tyranids vs Orks, Imperial Guard vs Genestealer Cult). Built to 500 points per side

Above all I wanna see that necessary balance tweaks are made.

A plastic lictor, and the Eldar aspect warriors in plastic (as dual kits - with new units for the 2nd unit, ex., melee Banshees and ranged Sirens).

Light tanks, motorcycles and other vehicles for the guard.

It never ends well

Plastic Sisters of Battle is essential

Shame Codexs are comng - would have prefered a general update to all factions - "order of Battle or similar " if they have to do Chapter tactics then everyone gets them, same with relics and the like.

Codexes just mean some factions get stuff whilst others (non marines) get fethed.

Some more Mechanicus would be great -especially if its more like the 30k stuff - some of that in plastic would be a joy

Datalsate card packs with pts as well as PL on them.

Campaign books - hopefully split into fluff and rules books.

Tau Auxiliaries. The kroot is with me and I am one with the kroot. Failing that then any auxiliary. More Tau vehicles and a cool hover transport.

Dark Eldar models please. Need new cult models as said but I also want to see them get a big model similar in size to the knight range. New covens models since they are my fav de models.

Deathwatch primarris asap.

New xenos race.

Blood Ravens.

sisters of battle, slaanesh, plastic great unclean one that looks like the dudes on the artwork with mortarion vs guilliman. Basically looking like a larger, gross and super detailed nurgling with a plaguesword or flail censer.

recut/improved necron warriors and eldar guardians. Both kits need a revision just like what the SM tacticals/assault marines/devs got. Crisper details, better placement on the sprues and reduced mold lines. Necron warriors need more poses besides the simple squat. Dark Eldar have their lower legs in one piece, Eldar need to have their legs together. Plus horrid tab/mold placement on eldar guardian and necron heads...making them more work to clean up.

Put point costs into the data blocks. I shouldn't need to flip back-and-forth from the unit description to the back of the book in order to construct a comp list.

Um... Chaos?
I would prefer not to have to buy any more books (not saying it's realistic).

Dark mech for 40k would be cool.

If they release dark mechanicus I would collect so hard. I love that FFG did with the dark mechanicus in the black crusade book and I feel it has a lot of potential.

Multipart Primaris kits with some actual weapon options and of course the plastic Sisters of Battle, plus codices to go with these two. Non-gak Inquistion rules would be nice too.
