next week, we can expect the rest of the month to be space marine releases. my guess is next week we get pre-orders for the vanguard stuff, the weak after that 2 more codex supplements and characters. then another 2 supplements

Company Veterans now have even a tiny shred of purpose!

Give them 9 Flamers, a Combi Flamer and 10 Chainswords, +3" range and Re-roll charges and drop pod them in turn 1. Delicious.

I'm not expecting new DA models so soon. I think they'll drop the remaining new marine units & supplements this month then move onto some of the new AoS models in Sept.

The WD rules will be like the Crimson Fists earlier this year, a preview for a later codex or supplement. Something like veteran Primaris with the Deathwing keyword, or new stratagems.

they mention primaris dark angels, but that could just be an indepth index astartes article on how primaris are within the dark angels. the most I'd expect to see is a updated codex and a primaris Azeral.

Everything but the repulsor stayed the same or got points reductions mostly 1 point here or their with the exception of Grav Cannons which are down 8 points.
The repulsor got +30 points, I sort of feel bad for the genuine primaris player but I love the way this is going to make the squat OG marine guys rage.

Sergeant Chronus can now go into any vehicle with the appropriate keyword, not just specific named vehicles like before. So he can now go in many of the Forgeworld vehicles or the Terminus Ultra from the Index!



The Ultramarines Chapter Ancient has a 9" radius instead of 6" for the Company Ancient. I think that could be combined with the relic to go to 12" total.

GW would probably be glad if you never bought another old marine kit, but few companies would want to antagonize a significant portion of their existing user base by making the old product artificially substandard.

As long as Primaris kits as generally better than old marine kits, GW gets what it wants.

Look we already knew that no one in the rules writing department talks to each other or reads each other's work. This can't be that surprising. If I ever visit the GW offices I wouldn't be surprised to find that each office is on a different floor and they all have personal elevators to get to their private offices.
