Yeah I mean there is a Fleur de Lys prominently on display on everything about the PA2, this all points toward a 100% BT-oriented issue.

It would be weird to add rules to Sisters on the cusp of a Sisters codex release, but I can see them for sure featured heavily in this series. It is possible they add the Sister special character to the PA book (the one talked abut in Phoenix Rising....Ephrael Stern). I also don't think it's a coincidence that the Inquisition is also being released in WD next month.

Or perhaps it's because Vol 2 is coming out right around the same time that the new box set is coming out for the Sisters?

Sure. also maybe it's because Bretonnians are coming out at the same time in AoS. Or maybe when deciding which icons to use for PA vol2, they based themselves on the content of PAvol2, not on what unrelated release happens at the same time. Both are possible but I'm putting money on the later.

While they may well be the faction headlining the narrative, I'll be very surprised if Sisters get any rule content in PA2 when their codex & boxed set is being released in the same month.

Death Guard are their own faction/book. They showed up certainly, but so did the Skitarii...and the only AdMech stuff had nothing to do with what actually featured in the book.

Again:
I don't want to get something for my codex if everyone else gets something for their codex as well.

Why? Make sister players buy 2 books at once rather than 1. Sounds just like GW!

They said Sisters are getting something with PA. Could just be a wave 2 model release for all we know. Or a witch hunting scenario. I mean PR came with 2 new battlefields and a handful of new missions.

Or the sisters intro box is a tie into PA with the full codex and model drop in a few months.

Also possible. Guess we'll just have to wait and see. Fingers crossed for not being an End of Month release.

In regards to the hopes/delusions of possibly having World Eaters or Emperor's Children rules as part of PA..... Almost impossible.

I think the best we could get out of the deal is some expanded unit rules and maybe models for one unit and one character updated. Everyone is getting the Eldar treatment.

Now don't get me wrong, updated Berserkers would be amazing, and sell well. If I were a betting man I'd place money on this.

I've been waiting over a decade for plastic Noise Marines, I'd be all over them if they did it. But I'm not holding my breath either.

There is a full codex in the Sisters box

Yes, but have they said anything about a stand alone release of the codex at the same time?

No, but the point still stands: the full codex will have been released in at least one form by the time PA is out.

I'd be rather shocked if they didn't get a regular codex outside of the box.

Releasing the codex separately as a concurrent release with the army box would certainly be the classy thing to do for longtime sisters players, but GW rarely does classy. I wouldn't be surprised if the codex isn't released separately in November

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Stern was in PR? Share please?

Not only do I think the Sisters will be prominent in PA 2, but I think the Sisters box is what GW considers to be the tie-in models for this chapter.

Ephrael Stern and Pariah arrive to warn Yvarine of a coming threat and become buddies with her.

Genestealer Cults got a few minor rules bits in Vigilus Book 1, which was very near their codex.

Sisters wouldn't be breaking some great precedent with that.

And assuming Black Templars get what we think they will, then GW clearly planned for PA to be for black templar players, essentially part of their release.

but given all the symbols we saw we shouldn't expect too too much. If sisters get anything It could be one of the following.

1: expanded relics, warlord traits etc for one of their orders.
2: "Create a order" rules
3: A special character.
4: "We said everyone would get something, sisters didn't like that art spread page?" *cue fanbase rioting*
5: they don't get anything this time and end up getting something in PA7 down the road once they've had time to buy all they want from the base codex.

(for the record 5 strikes me as most likely)

this would make sense.

I am hoping we have something a bit more substantial like Vigilius. The part i liked about vigilius was the stories, but it lacked the character of previous campaign books, hope the next book is longer and i don't have to pay 230$ to get it.

any news? I am really eager to see wether new rules for Emperor's Children will come.

Are you referring to the small book in the Phoenix Rising boxset? That wasn't the first Psychic Awakening book.

Little bird at B&G has confirmed Black Templar’s supplement Codex.

And Chaos Legion rules.

Guess this will be confirmed in the next 45 minutes!


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Chaos Legion rules in the form of Supplement Codex.

Little Bird?

Is that their user name?

Or, link perhaps?

Thanks!

No link I’m afraid. Local gaming clubs private messages on FB.

Source is trustworthy though.

Also, for clarity, multiple Legions are apparently being covered in Codex Supplements. Original post was a bit poorly worded and misleading.

https://www.warhammer-community.com/2019/11/02/new-reveals-chaos-sororitas-tanks-and-moregw-homepage-post-1/

don't think there's separate chaos supplement by the sound of it. More like the PA2 contains the chaos legion rules for specified legions. Plus black templars

Supplement-tier rules? Hell yes. Sorcerer model is nice too. Let's hope the Word Bearers get rues befitting the blokes on the cover of the book.
