That wraps up our look at the big new kits coming in the Saturnine box set, but don’t fret – there’s still loads more to see from the new edition, with a highly anticipated look at new army building rules coming next week.

We've had one, yes, but what about second army building rules?

I was assuming Rites of War/alternate primary detachments/additional force org charts/etc that will be in the libers.

I don't think RoW exist the same way. Armies now have the flexible build that RoW used to give them- all bikes, many dreadnaughts, etc... Not sure what they'll look like now.

Well one thing that I suspect is that as keeping regular Centurion around unlocks an extra detachment, Consular upgrades instead let you take specific detachment or unit(s).

So if you upgrade your Centurion to be Master of Signal you can take related unit/detachment such as Scouts, Recon or Seeker unit for example. Or whole Recon detachment.

That would make sense.

In true Uncle Albert fashion we're in for another weeks worth of waffle for the new edition of 30K. Lore and "game systems" in the book.
