So it is here...

A lot of stuff.

Unfortunately, no more Vraksian Renegades?
Krieg stuff is in, but R&H have been phased out apparently.

If so, I am for sure annoyed about it...

Krieg Doctrine is absolute crap.

- I get a 1/2 chance of firing a single weapon at BS6+ if I don't explode.

Also pretty pissed that they're dropping the Stormhammer, despite continuing to sell it.

Pour one out for Eldar Corsairs.
We hardly knew ye.

o7 to the fallen unique factions.
Renegades, Corsairs, Elysians.


Now gw has the design space for and market expansion of former collectors of these to sell new primaris to instead,.

Well that's just more fuel for simply using Tank Commanders instead of the regular Russes.

Kraig Grendiers are missing but missing units are supposed to get Legends rules.

Yeah, probably cheap Copy paste chops from the index debacle at the start of 8th.

But then again neither of these factions is primaris so got to go.

If they are lucky, interns will get that project, rather than the Necromunda team.

I'm not sure I understand. In the end this is better than the old doctrine isn't it? The old one didn't have anything for vehicles and this new one at least allows for a 50% chance of one last attack. Not to bad if you have a flamer (or Malcador Infernus). Also if this works on Cyclops it is also a small buff. And as Infantry and Cavalry do not degrade they can make that attack at full BS/WS.

EDIT: I misread, the last attack is just for vehicles and characters. Still the Cyclops, Marshal, Death Rider Commander work.

I was sad at first then I saw the * with legends hopefully they keep all the old index models.

Sisters completely gone..

My phoenix bomber :(

what does it matter when full factions are gone there is more missing in many cases that would've made the faction propperly play before.

Wow, that must be a real right shaft to DKoK players. The doctrine is arguably worse than Valhallans, who are better with their morale trait AND their tank trait, which doesn't rely on them dying to trigger it.

And not just Sisters of Battle. The Sisters of Silence Kharon Pattern Acquisitor has apparently been consigned to the Legends hellsewer.

I don't think it ever had 40K rules, or did it?

Nope, and it probably never will at this rate.

GW don't really know what to do with the sisters, they should have just been an elite option for the Custodes but they sit in a really weird place where nobody would take them even if they could figure out how.

The Kharon model looks bad ass and its galling that you can't actually run it in 40k

I guess I don't need my 3 upgrades for corsairs anymore sadly. My favorite and a very rich army gone b.c GW can't take 2 hours to write rules and are focing all rules to have models.

Well, their one vehicle did vanish years ago, so it was only a matter of time.

Will the Corsair army list at least have legends rules?

I am just going to add my two cents in this. Everyone is entitled to their response as to this post.

1. I for one am glad that Games Workshop is releasing a book that allows us to play our Forge World models in Warhammer 40K 9th edition.

2. I like how they handled the Death Korps of Krieg doctrine, and look forward to any other improvements the other models have.

3. Solomon Iok and Lugft Huron are in the book while Zhufor will be a Legends character. AN MIA INQUISITOR AND THE FUTURE HURON BLACKHEART AREN'T LEGENDS. A CHAOS TERMINATOR, THAT IS STILL ALIVE, HAS NOT TURNED AND IS NOT USEABLE IN ANY KHORNE WARBAND, WORLD EATER OR NO, IS.

AN !@#$@!@$#$ MIA INQUISITOR AND THE FUTURE HURON !%@#$%!#% BLACKHEART, NO.

ZHUFOR, YES.

Thank you for reading this. In addition, I may or may not switch to Age of Sigmar in the near future.

Edit: WHI THE !@#!%#@!@#$ IS VALTHEX ALSO IN THERE!?!?!?!?!

Does this thing have a price yet?

No, you'll see the price on Friday when it goes up on the FW webstore.

Guessing £25 if only based on the last index and their last few softbacks.

Doesn't send the strongest message by shifting your money to the same company whose behaviour you're disappointed in.

Considering the "Army List" was a total 3 units in 8th, probably not.

That sucks. There is no reason they couldn't just throw people bone with a quick list.

Im thinking it will be closer to BRB at £40..

Because why charge £25 for 10 pages of rules for my army when they can charge £40... (And FAQ it 2 weeks later making the book out of date)

I'm not sure if im going to bother with this one. Might just wait around until some good soul from my group is willing to let me take a look at CWE rules.

so an entire edition and an updated book for 9th edition and they still leave out a ton of 30k Forge world models that are still in-print.

What total garbage.

If they make the model still it should have current edition rules when they do an update. GW is such a trash company, glad i dont support their book printing rip offs and havent for years.

Well, to give credit, at least they putted the gunwagon/Kanonwagon back for the orks...
That is something.
