Be happy that you still have the awesome boy box.
The new kits might look awesome but 8guns for 10 dudes, or 8 pistol and melee weapons Starts to grind your gears rather fast.
Also the pricepoint.

I am kinda curious how 40k "Endless Spells" might end up being like. Fantasy has in my mind a much easier time doing such spells due to the innate fantasy of the setting. Therefore it is not weird to have a stampede of undead horses or a powered nuclear mushroom or a bleeding chalice of bones. The Endless Spells in AoS were also a way(at least with predatory spells) to affect the Double Turn. 40k spells of AoS diversity would be weird(except maybe for Orks) and currently there is no need to affect any double turns as there are none in 40k.


Back in 2nd edition there were a number of psychic powers and effects that remained on the battlefield. Vortex and Eldritch Storm come to mind immediately. Squats had a Force Dome power until they were squatted, IIRC; that could certainly be moved to Imperial Guard or some other Imperial army. This would be in line with the callbacks being made with releases like Genestealer Cult. It's not hard to imagine some kind of pestilent miasma cloud for Nurgle, walls of pink fire for Tzeentch, and so on. Tyranids/GC are perhaps a little trickier in terms of precedent, but I'm sure one could think of something. I could see these being given points values and made available for purchase on a 1-per-army basis or something like that (I don't know how Endless Spells actually function in AoS since I don't play it).


I remember those, but they were ultimately just templates with nice graphics and if you were to render those in 3D they would just be generic effects for the most part whereas AoS has galloping undead horses, skeleton chalice filled with blood, Demonic portal holding hand, and so on. Basically I fear that if they go the Endless Spell route it would just be one nuclear blast after another and if they were to go more the fantasy route it would look silly in the 40k setting.

Let us say theorize some Endless Psychic Spells:

Marines: Orbital Bombardment or Vortex Grenade
Imperial Guard: a different Vortex Grenade
Sisters of Battle: Here I could imagine something utilizing doves and cherubs
Eldar: Eldritch Storm
Dark Eldar: Pain Storm
Orks: Big Bang.
Tau: Orbital Rail Gaun
Necrons: Maybe scarab nest.
Tyranid: Tentacle Pit
Genestealer Cults: Tentacle Sand Pit

Then I guess the Chaos Gods would reuse the AoS spells(which would look silly in 40k, but fit right in AoS).

Again, just wondering how this would be represented on the field without looking out of place. Either way we'll find out soon. Exciting times.

Gathering the Informations.

If it's Psychic Spells, it's going to be limited to the Psychic Phase...and Orbital Bombardment is already a Stratagem so not likely to happen there.

AOS gets some leeway since there's no Magic Phase, it's all done in the Hero Phase. I'd imagine that whatever happens first will be tied into actual Psyker abilities/manifestations(things like a blazing aquila that attacks foes), with some armies like Tau, Necrons, and Dark Eldar having things that take place in different phases instead.

There is no rule that says your Ultramarine paint job models can only use Ultramarine chapter tactics. My argument has nothing to do with competitive play. I don't care about that. And I know of no store that will let you "try the rules for free" before buying them. All books come shrink wrapped so that you cannot look inside. Most stores I've been to even have signs that read "If I hear a spine crack, you've just purchased the book that made the sound."

I personally have two fully painted armies, one white scars and one a custom color scheme, and I play them both mixed and as many different factions all the time.

In the stores around here they always have trial codexes open and they encourage people to "try before they buy". It's how they make a ton of sales.

We also spend a ton of time talking about different builds and strengths/weaknesses of different factions/SM chapters and people get hyped up on a certain build. I've never seen the sign you talk of and I'm sorry it's like that for you. It's way better here (in UK).

Even so, I know of no Marine player that doesn't play their chapter unless they have no other choice ie - their Chapter is so horrifically bad it's effectively unplayable. I literally know of no Ultramarine/White Scar/Raven Guard etc etc player that doesn't want to play their faction because it's the faction they've invested so much of their time in. They have a certain loyalty to their chapter. More so than most players of other factions I think. So your "problem" doesn't really exist in reality. I doubt there's many people who genuinely want or need to purchase each supplement.


Okay dude. Sure, you keep telling yourself that.

I don't know a single person that doesn't want to play each chapter and faction from their books. I know of no one so fanatically devoted to playing one specific thing over and over ad infinitum to the point of being that fanatical.


seems to me you guys just likely have differant mentalities in your metas.

thing is Space Marine players likely consist of 3 groups. the first group are people who like a specific chapter and wanna play that chapter. the second group like space marines over all but won't wanna commit to one chapter. the third group are the meta chasers who play whatever the OP FOTM is.


I would firmly plant my own flag in Camp 2 as it gives me the most content for my dollar. I look at it from a perspective of "Space marines is space marines" and the chapters are just different playstyles. Compared to other factions, that's why I like CSM/SM so much. You basically get like 12 armies from 2 books.

You're a peach.

With all the rumors, I'm actually considering starting a wholly Black Templar army, because I think they're awesome. Maybe not the best rules-wise, or model-wise, or even morals-wise. But it's a game, and I like that faction. Which I want to play just that faction. Cause I don't really like 'Space Marines' as a whole.

Ignoring that, I understand what you mean. There definitely are people who want to play what's best, or try different combos from their codex, but they're not everyone. People are different, and just because you know no one who likes playing a specific build over and over, doesn't mean there isn't someone.... (also, is that fanaticism or is it just playing a comfortable/familiar build in a game you like?)


The fanaticism comes in when you have people from group one constantly insisting that the only reason someone might be in group 2 is because they want to game the meta all the time when for me this is not the case. When I play a video game, I don't like getting stuck in one specific build. Having the ability to change, test and try out new combinations, to use my models for new narrative stories is what I enjoy about the hobby.

I like the boyz kit. I find the Boyz, Stormboyz, Lootas/Burnas, great and I love how interchangeable their bits are. Along with the bikes and the trukk crew they are the peak of the 40k Ork aethetics.
Also the pose I think is to recall a gorilla or some other ape. Orc-ish humanoids are often shown to be alike to apes in some old art, when not depicted to be more alike pigs or other animals.
For sure, Tankbustas and Warboss in Mega Armour are needed!

I also like the boyz kit. You can make pretty much any infantry unit from it.
Hell, you can even make Nobz squads from it if you have enough Nob torsos.

A big mek on foot with KFF would be nice. I'd prefer if they released a Big mek box set with all of the bits in it, instead of the current nonsense where you have to buy a MANZ set to get a big mek, meaning that you now have 2 MANZ just sitting around.

Yeah, but do you really think GW will design the new kit to be as versatile and conversion heavy? They would have caught on by now that you can basically make cheaper units out of the kit instead of buying their more expensive counterparts.

It is, but the kit was modified at some point in it's lifetime as it originally had no heavy weapons on it's sprue.

The ork boyz are still one of the greatest kit and models from gw, we all agree but... but i really like to see some new products for them!

They are still awesome but lack some proportion in comparison with the recent release (big head, big hands, etc), for example the new buggies crew are much more correct under that point of view, the bloodbowl orcs too!

But the real cause for me its only that after 15years i wuold love some real new kit for them... new boyz and new Ghazghkull (which model is still great too, the model who made me love orks and 40k when i first saw the armageddon supplement 15 years ago) is my wet dream.

I wouldn't worry, I doubt we're getting new kits anyway to be honest but even if we do - a monopose kit has never been an issue for an Ork player to kitbash.

I'm not. They are still a business and the AOBR koptas are everywhere.

Even if they were to release a minimal kit, it would cost ~25€, which would be just as much as the mini-AOBR box from Revell costs on amazon.

It's more likely that we see a new Ork Supa Boom Buzzblade than a box of koptas.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
The new models don't really support kit-bashing unless you glue the miniatures together and then saw them appart to re-arrange parts. And even then they will look wonky because each model has a different pose.

For plague marines or blightlord terminators, doing as much as putting an arm on a model which its not intended for is a major modeling project, leg swaps or just giving another guy the heavy weapon is difficult to do. Most pox walkers don't even have bits to swap.

Judging from the drivers and gunners on the buggies, that's exactly what a new boyz kit would look like - you can get 10 poses from the box, another 4 from ETB/paint sets and another four from a limited edition set that cost 60 bucks. So your entire updated Waaagh! (and every other ork army) would have 2-3 identical orks with the exact same pose and the same facial expresion in each unit.

So, no thanks. Update kommandoz and tank bustas instead, those already are mono-pose, nothing to lose there.

7 Ork facts people always get wrong:
Ragnar did not win against Thrakka, but suffered two crushing defeats within a few days of each other.
A lasgun is powerful enough to sever an ork's appendage or head in a single, well aimed shot.
Orks meks have a better understanding of electrics and mechanics than most Tech Priests.
Orks do not think that purple makes them harder to see. They do think that camouflage does however, without knowing why.
Gharkull Blackfang did not even come close to killing the emperor.
Orks can be corrupted by chaos, but few of them have any interest in what chaos offers.
Orks do not have the power of believe.

In really don't understand the apparent negativity to the idea of a new boys kit apart from the obvious work for us all.

If you take into account the fact that you can add heads from similar kits and from the trukk, PLUS all those metal jaws and possibly, if you still have them, from WHFB orcs, it's quite a lot of heads actually.
I agree that the SAME design with slightly more detail would be cool. It's not that necessary IMHO for the way people end up painting the orcs in most ways (and on both ends of the skill/time dedicated). Same with the nobz.
I prefer the AOBR warboss because is kinda more "square"? I guess, blunt if you wish, therefore more orky.
I think that if we want to predict how a boyz kit would be produced, we have to think about the pilots of the buggies. I suppose torsos and arms would fit more in that way than in the excellent modular (but as you imply, with drawbacks) current form.
EDIT: I see the poster above thought the same thing.

I see your point but I would dislike proportions of the armor similar to the BB orcs for 40k orks. I would prefer slightly more futuristic (and adjusted nonetheless in the details) AoS ardboyz/ WHFB Black Orcs.

I don't understand why GW doesn't expand upon the idea they have with the space marine upgrade sprues. The ork boyz kit is super flexible and is used for the basis of most infantry. So why not just sell upgrades for it? Instead of 4 lootas to a box (with 5 more identical boyz bodies) just sell us 10 loota accessories for the same price and then we have to buy the boyz kit for the bodies, or use some of the leftover bodies we have. It would also make expanding the range much easier. Want to re-introduce official 'ard boyz models? Just sell an upgrade hit. Skarboys? Tankbustas? Kommandos? All could just be upgrade kits that use the base boyz box.

Instead of looking to vehicles that aren't even infantry, perhaps a better indication of what could be done if GW redid the Boyz sprue can be found in the Ironjawz line. Particularly their infantry that, from what I have seen, is pretty modular and full of detail.
