Oh, I misread it then.

I miseread it as well. Seeing something like this, get so hyped only to be SOOOOO disappointed. And here I thought GW actually changed. Perfect time to get updated Chaos rules and they don't do it. Oh well, still looks like great savings. How much will this be $200 Canadian?

Very Cool, those knights are incredibly badass.

Really interesting that the Knights are getting Datasheet Cards. Have we gotten that for anyone else in 40k?

Huzzah I was wrong !!

maybe a box of armigers (or maybe get Forgebane instead).

The forgebane box is missing the parts for the helverins if that matters for you.

I think the Forgebane versions should work well enough, dont really need the autocanons plus it's unlikely I'll end up actually playing them. They just look ripe for conversion and bits.

Okay so... is all of that next week’s preorders?

If so, I guess that means that the character guy gets week two to himself.

Also putting all long ranged weapons on an armiger seems kind of a waste of it’s speed.

It's a good flanking unit with that setup. Depending on other factors, it could be a good way to get around bubble wrap and go for the juicy insides.

Eh, without a close combat weapon just about the only reason to move with a long range gun like an autocannon is to establish line of sight on a standard board.

Which is critical when you're wanting to hunt characters...?

If you can get closest, you can charge it.

There’s edge case value to extra mobility, but -standard- rather than -enhanced- mobility generally suffices for a purely devastator style unit.

Codex first, then a Big Guy I reckon.

Not sure which one though.

right now ... I'm thinking LE book, dices, & maybe cards or sheets, or gauge ... then bundle kit through ebay

is that a new weapon on the right arm of the castellan?

I'll go ahead and pick up the book and cards next week, but I'm trying to pay off a little debt before I make any major purchases.

what are the sheets and cardboard pieces for?

It's not a Castellan, it's the Valiant. It fired its harpoon into the Keeper of Secrets.

The sheets are the actual datasheets from inside of the army book, just in a format that you can have them as a big 'card' to put on the table and keep track of things.
The cardboard cutouts are usually status markers or relics.

that's amazing ... got the harpoon confused because the shoulder weapons were the turrets instead of the missiles

Actually going by the artwork on the LE book.. You may be able to configure the carapace weapons any way you chose. Also one of those turrets seems to be using different barrels than the known autocannon turret.

I like how baby knight is trying to look like daddy on that cover.

But, yeah, expensive month. I probably don’t need Renegade and going to 6 Paladin framed knights, right?

That's a good spot with the missiles and turrets. Although I think the different barrels may be down to the perspective.

Renegade and armigers or one of the big knights and lots of armigers?

IDGAF if it costs me $300 for two kits, Daddy wants double Flamers. Really hoping the big guys aren't stuck in one configuration.

The Facebook 40k page has house Terryn rules:

Gallant Warriors

When knight charges or advances roll an extra D6 and discard the lowest.

Indeed, copying over:



Nice confirmation that the other leaks are also on point. Can't wait to get this codex!

So, there are two weeks of Iks?

I dont see the special character this week.

I better have the option to use that Harpoon gun with a Fist. I want my Knight to make a move in the game that has me playing a Youtube bit from Mortal Kombat.

GET OVER HERE!

It seems like the Terryn trait is mostly good for normal and Armiger knights. Not so much for Dominus class.
Also the advance bonus is often not good, since everyone has heavy weapons.

Would be nice if the next Chapter Approved balanced out points for the Chaos fellas then. The Renegade Knight will be pricey by comparison.

Looks like Gallants and Warglaives will get the most out of the Terryn trait.

I'd be nice for GW to get their arses into gear and fix it via a single paragraph FAQ the week the codex releases.

It's utter insanity to potentially have to wait six months until CA to be able to play a Renegade Knight House (which now has vastly fewer options), at an equivalent points cost.

Any update/rumors on the Armigers optional loadout? Pictures suggest a double autocannon and stubber/melta carapace. Frankly, if there's nothing more it's dissapointing at best. At least for Admech looking for some options. Ironstrider Balistarius can punch as much for significantly fewer points (even after codex rumored discounts).

Given the melta armiger has a 1/2 strength version of the big knights melta and not just a multi-melta I would think these will have some le improvement over a standard autocannon-perhaps a rapid fire version like the predator autocannon?

On the topic of the new Armiger guns, I really don't like the spindly little cannons but that's a nice and easy conversion for some (hopefully) fairly good stats.

It's a decent platform that needed something new. I'd much prefer more shots at lower strength than less at higher. This with an apparent cost reduction is shaping up to be quite nice.

It's a pair of autocannons with maybe a jacked up rate of fire.
