She could be hospitaller trained or a former hospitaller who has been lured away by money or assigned there as penance.

I know but I don't like it.

I like the idea that the Trader herself is Eldar which is why she has the full face veil. Have to wait and see when the set comes but cool idea nonetheless

Rogue Trader is $130 USD

Gellerpox kill team focus is up: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2018/09/04/kill-team-focus-the-gellerpox-infectedgw-homepage-post-2/

So.. commanders are for all factions?

Interesting in make better miniatures.

I like the idea behind commanders, it'll be interesting to see how this will be implemented into other factions.

Come on Skitarii Cohort Commander model and expansion!

I'll be happy with being allowed to apply it to a Tempestor, or dare we say it, Tempestor Prime.

If the Tempestor (Prime) can pack a rifle rather than a pistol I'll be happy.

I'd be more happy to get a Tempestor Adjutant or something like that. An Elite choice Tempestor that can issue Orders or serve as a Commander for Kill Team.

Could go for a Kasrkin Sergeant too.

RIFLES FOR EVERY GUARD CHARACTER! HOOOOOOOORAY!

That would be nice indeed, though that did not stop us from house ruling it along with some other things in the meantime.

Way ahead of you on that one



1st one is a Tempestor the other is a Prime (who also has the Anvil PEQ now)

Oh jeebus, if that article is right they've derped heavy on the fluff in this one.

Unless it comes with a list of qualifiers as long as your arm, "Nurgle can get through Gellar Fields now" is the end of the Imperium and Chaos wins. There's no reason ol' Pappy Tubs wouldn't immediately do it to every ship that enters the warp, and as soon as humanity figured out what was happening that would be it, interstellar travel nixed, Imperium collapses like the Age of Strife.

All they had to do was fart out something about the field failing for some mundane reason(technical fault, cultist stowaway suicider, dumb captain tried to fly through a really bad warp storm etc etc) and have the plague infect the ship in the moments between that and them executing an emergency re-entry to reality. Instead they've casually chucked out a line that would throw a spanner in the works of the whole setting if it were actually followed through.

Anvil's tactical attachments are excellent for this game and the range indeed.

You're...not wrong!

Yikes.

I wouldn't necessarily jump the gun - the warhammer community page isn't written by fluff writers.

We'll see, it could be a fluke, a very specific scenario brought on by the splitting of the Imperium or whatnot.

Funny, I’ve got the WD, and I read it as a glitch in the Geller Fields, followed by a daemonically forced collapse.

I guess this new Commander rule explains the Space Wolf on the wolf from the early preview video.

Well if you will let Mr Cawl steal all the more innovative Ad Mech for his Primeris project it's bound to have consequences elswhere

It's Cawl! it's all Cawl! Read between the lines of the codex man, he's screwing with the geller fields!

I wonder if that's who the genecult gunslinger is.

Also has anyone recieved a Killzone deathworld forest yet - is the contents as it says in the description or as it shows in the pictures?

Uh, I have it, but I don't know what you mean. Is there a particular part you'd like me to count?

Well since the supplement after this is all about factions getting leader/HQ models, it does lay the ground for it.

Looking forward to deploying Cult Eastwood, but interested whether Space Marines will get a customisable lieutenant or something else.

Well first we got a dark angel with a cool power sword

Then we got a Space Wolf with a cool power axe

Next we are clearly going to get a Dark Angel with TWO power swords

Yeah, if that has no qualifiers and is just a thing that can happen, it ranks right there with 'every commissar needed to kill another commissar-in-training to become one' with thoughtless, stupid, setting wrecking grimdumb for the sake of grimdumb. I miss the rare few authors who can still do grimdark subtle, not 'and then Failbaddon killed another gazillion civilians while twirling his mustache and cackling villainously to show he totally didn't lose the CXXXVIIIth Black Crusade' kind

Yeah, I'm on the side thinking this is not too bad.

There's about 3 Kill team starters worth of new models, with cards and everything. The terrain is limited, but I'm hoping thats a legitimate board that comes with it.

$100 after discounts is certainly doable.

Campaign box looks interesting

I'm feeling a bit less concerned about it as well. It looks like there's at least 3-4 character clamshells that are intended to come out of this later. Most on the Rogue Trader side, but the leader for the Gellerpox Infected seems to be a 'standalone' monster rather than the other big mutants.
