Maybe the lack of leaks is because of a lack of content to leak...

Certianly looks like it.

Maybe, but with every points cost for every unit in all of 40K being in that field manual, it's just as likely they the real nuggets haven't been found by "leakers" yet.

I've run parallel battles before, and I tried to get my community interested in a "draft" version of 40k before. The first one IS fun, the second one - no one was interested. Like at all.

Parallel battles are easy to set up. All you do is time the turns together, and set objectives that impact other games. My biggest one I ever ran had the following games going in parallel:

Table 1 (Feature Table):
- Big shield has a ton of wounds. Units inside the shield can't be harmed until the shield is brought down.
- Army inside the shield has 2000 points.
- Army outside the shield has 6000 points.

Table 2 (Missile Table):
- Two armies fight for control of an Aquila Strongpoint. Its vortex missiles can fire at targets on other tables.
- Special rule that allow infantry to assault units inside the strongpoint, and whomever has the most models inside controls it.

Table 3 (Reinforcement Table):
- As units die, they are given to a player from each team on this table. These units have to exit the battlefield off the opposite table edge.
- When units leave this table, they can arrive as reinforcements for either Table 1 or Table 2.
- All units that are being held in reserves start on this table.

Table 4 (Kill Team - High Orbit):
- Battle on a Space Hulk for command of a space cannon. No reinforcements here.
- Good for players with small collections

.

I've broached the subject with my group before but not enough people were interested. Now with it being official(like that matters) I might have a stronger case. it sounds fun to me at least.

I think GW is being stubborn. From what Reece said on FLG and from the cuts they showed on the German 40k page, I think we are going to see a second year of massive points cuts across underperforming units and armies.

**NinthMusketeer**

So I just read that chapter approved will have rules, -rules- for throwing random models on the table and playing a game! I cannot stop cracking up

**BoomWolf**

Draft could be cool, if there is enough supporting rules to maintain how stratagems and such works, and how exactly do you preform the draft itself.

As for parallel battles, some people already do such stuff. Having it in CA is just making it easier for people to try such things.

Overall, just like last time, a bunch of random stuff for people who want to try something a bit different. Don't tell me "the eight" or the land raider workshop were any more value.

Weren't the Eight released as like a whole unit? If I remember that correctly yeah that had absolutely zero value.

"Hot new Chaos leaks for Chapter Approved! I haven't seen the book myself but these points are directly from a trustworthy member of the community who says he has seen the new book. These are without wargear. You'll notice some are unchanged. Also, Thunder Hammers are now 40 for Chaos characters just like for Imperials. I'm disapointed that Magnus, Mortarion, and Blightlords didn't go down but otherwise I am happy."

I'm actually interested in the challenge missions. I mean I will have to actually have to see these missions first but I like the sound of some deliberately lop-sided scenarios to offset players of different skill levels.

Any info about AdMech?

**macluvin**

Edit: read the fine print. But possessed still simply do not output enough attacks to justify any reasonable price tag... I hope terminators become awesome at that price point though

Can i repost some photos here?

Tyranids just have "Units" with everything thrown together and not the normal split? Seems strange.

Gw said that CA will include all points, the updated and the ones that stayed the same... Wolves have 70 points land speeders without wargear buxaxaxa is this a joke?? Also
T-wolves stayed the same nice update... Well thought :p

Looks like standard way of GW treating Tyranids for the past 10 years if you ask me. Just throw everything in a bowl, shake it up, toss it on the carpet and call it an army.

Cheaper GSC shooting seems nice. Mining Lasers and Seismic down 5. Heavy Mining and Clearance Incinerator down 10. Etc..

**CthuluIsSpy**

So they reduced the points cost of Impaler Cannons by 5 points, making a cancerous weapon even more cancerous. GW, why?

That's how it is in the Codex at least. Also have more than half of the units on the unseen page.... but Tyrannocytes at 50? jeez.

Rupture cannon down, acid spray down... heavy venom down...strangle cannon and regular venom down... looks like theyre making anti-armor cheaper for nids.
