This was seen from how the new Mega Armoured Warbosses can't take Power Klaws, they're only able to use the Big Choppa their kit comes with.

Just as I predicted almost 2 months ago:

At least the Mega-Armoured Warboss is cool, but given his distinct lack of Power Klaw, I guess Ork players are about to lose that option as well. Cool.

Really makes you appreciate the previous codex author, who even managed to sneak in a couple units with no official model by hiding them in the Stratagem section.

Aaaaaaaand the box is gone!

Ordered from Wayland as I was in the GW queue with 45 minutes to go(!). Wayland have done alright for me on previous preorders, so hoping they come through here.

Typical. My queue time is still saying "more than one hour"

Apologies if this has been commented on already, but it looks like we've got a new Ork Transfer sheet at last!

Oh yeah that transfer sheet is pure sex. Actually looks like a redo of some of the early 90s decals.

Freebooterz are on the sheet...

All these poor bastards waiting for hours in queque, not aware the thing they want sold out long ago.

Oh good, glad I hadn't finished my Stompa, going to need some of those. Hopefully they'll come with a chunk of the newer kits.

Wouldn't be that surprised if they went in with ALL the kits when they get reboxed, tbh.

Would be surprised if they went in with all the kits when they get reboxed. You know, GW and limited edition stuff that never gets remade.
Those fantastic Necromunda poster transfers never got remade despite selling out in minutes.

I dunno, this looks to be a general Ork transfer sheet, rather than Beast Snagga specific. I guess we'll see though!

Me and a friend each managed to get one - some of my devices were only able to access the store 40+ minutes into the event despite already being on it when the queue started. The device with a queue position oif 10k+ was able to enter at 11:46, but both the English and the German box were still available.

I think GW might have literally made around a thousand or so copies total this time. Every independent retailer got only one to three copies, and from their site it sold out within less than a minute since relase.

Aye, I might be wrong, but I am pretty sure the Sisters new sheet initially came in their limited army box and has since come with a large chunk of their kits, so here's hoping.

On the German page there were still copies available in either language 45 minutes after start, from my queue position they had at least 10k.

Keep in mind that Sisters straight up didn't have a transfer sheet for their kits so they HAD to make a new one for one to exist at all.

I got in at 10:23 and got one in the U.K.

I'm interested to know what time you logged onto the site.
I went on just after 9:50am, the website was 'closed' and preparing for queuing. It then put me into the queue. By 10:35, my queue time was still 'over 1 hour'. Obviously by the time I did get on a few minutes ago, it was long gone.

As I only just restarted 40k when the new Admech codex came out, my lad saw me building and painting models again and said he'd dig out some of the old Ork kits he had and that we could have some games this school summer holiday. There's no Ork codex at all on the GW webstore. I'm sure GW used to release the 'normal' codex at the same time as the limited edition ones. Makes me wonder what GW (a UK company) was thinking for the school summer holidays if there's no Ork Codex available but there is for every other army.
Their push for profits via fomo is really screwing over gamers.

I don't understand, how do these specialists work? GW just keeps making new rules and I can't keep up. It's 6th -7th ed all over again.

There was a rumor that you can just slap one of these on a detachment

Yeah, Sisters can get a fully customizable Canoness but an Ork Warboss can't even get a weapon swap.

It's just silly.

Fully customisable just so long as you don't want a boltgun, hand flamer, combi-weapon which isn't a crossbow, power maul, or jump pack...

Really? There's no limit? So I can just make an army of Trukk boyz?
I mean, that's kind of cool if perhaps a little unbalanced because I am basically getting free rules.
Do other armies have specialists too? I don't recall seeing a specialist page in my Necron codex.

9:58 am, I think?

The Specialist Units confuse and infuriate me also

The previous limited edition codexes were big fancy $180 units with a unique cover, usually some extra bits like cool coins, some art sheets, and a really nice box to put it all in. This limited edition codex is nothing but a unique cover. Same thing with the Sisters of Battle and Lumineth codexes.

If its 1 per detachment its not going to be that crazy.

I guess. Doesn't say that though in the specialist mob list. I'm assuming that you can take one of each of the named characters because they are Unique choices, but specialist mobs are oddly ambiguous.

Nvm.
