Arvus Lighters: They insist in the article that it’s unarmed, so maybe it is just an ornament that has no in-game effect. Shame!

It seems like a multi-laser or autocannon.

Could it just be an airborne refuelling boom?

That would be cool, Marauder bomber or something kitted (like a KA6 Intruder or similar,) with refuelling tanks

Making it so they don't have to be taken off the board at the end of the turn when ending their move near an Arvus?

Not much of an advantage though and can even be disadvantage if you don't get to move to the position suitably late though.

Hmmm, so it looks like not quite enough for a single gaming table?

Well obviously depends on what other terrain you want to have. If only buildings then yeah probably want 2nd box.

But at least I'm planning to expand terrain(and there's some rocks etc at FLGS we could use) so board doesn't have to be "buildings everywhere!"

I don't want my games to be buildings everywhere like 40k is ruins everywhere

With the "Later this Month" hint from the Book announcement/preview , I really wonder if we will see preorders on this Sunday...

Valrak was claiming that 40K DA will be the Jan 20th preorder, so I'm expecting those tonight.

In theory LI will next Sunday for a Jan 27th preorder / Feb 10th release.

Even if Valrak is on the money (his current streak makes that likely), there’s no reason further boxes of LI won’t go up at the same time.

For instance, Predators, Sicaran, Russ and Malcadors are currently only available from the big box set. Releasing them separately remains possible. As would the expansion book.

I’m looking forward to getting some Sicarans for the new edition of Horizon Wars! I can’t justify a whole new set of Epic, but those Sicarans are too scrummy not to get a few of.

Well, I wasn’t completely wrong. Just….mostly.

Bunch of transfer sheets coming next week for your teeny tiny Titans.

https://www.warhammer-community.com/2024/01/14/sunday-preview-deathwing-assault/

Are those all reprints or anything new? Certainly welcome in either case.

They’re reprints. Defo welcome.

I do wish they would give some new Titan Legions, like Mordaxis, some love with transfers.

Or some new legions, like legio destructor, legio xestobiax, legio Victorum or the imperial fists. With rules. Please…?

I wonder when the game core components will get a restock out to FLGS's. I had found *one* place that had some marine infantry in stock (silly P&P costs which I'm guessing was the reason why) but now even those have gone. For the time being I am stuck at a small demi-company!

I know both EG and Wayland got restocks on LI recently. Sadly it didn't include the Thunderhawks I keep checking back for, but there were some starter sets & infantry boxes at least.

Yes, Wayland got a nice restock of tanks recently, managed to grab some Kratos, Baneblades & Rhinos. All my usual shops in France have yet to see a restock, though. :(

Thunderhawks are Out of Stock on GW since the re-release in Early December...

It got restock at one point or two but quickly out. Infantry got as well when ordered set.

At least they are periodically getting small restocks.

At this point we're just hoping GW puts them on the priority for printing fresh stuff. Unlike Land Raiders and Armigers and a dozen other things that people *want* but GW seems to not want to print.

Armigers are available.

And more new stuff announced to preorder next sunday. What remains to be seen.

I'm shocked anyone pays those Armiger prices. And based on GW's track record, the price isn't gonna change much if they eventually get a plastic kit.

Yes but a fair speculation I feel if they do get a kit is it could just as likely be a set of 8 on sprue cover both armigers and both armiger and moirax loadouts, 2 and 2, like they've been doing with dreadnoughts and will be doing again for deredo and leviathans, with 4 per sprue each with 2 a and 2 b loadouts.

So could totally see like 1 sprue with all 4 doubled up in a box for the same price as questoris or a bit more, 55-60$ range.

I for one wouldn’t say no to a future boxed set just containing Dreads.

the all new Marine Lieutenant box!

Well sure that might too but we know legions stuff including supplement will be announced for preorders this sunday.

Few questions as ive been too busy at work and spare time been pure painting up what I have.

1- New Book pre order, late January?

2- Will new units be up for pre order late jan too(to match whats in the book there was a land raider pictured?)

3- Will the unit cards ever come back into stock?


Thanks

Just seen this. Is that correct, this sunday for pre orders...does it include new units?

1- The expansion book was said to "be available to pre-order later this month" and there is only one more preorder slot this month on the 27th so that will be when it goes up

2- Very likely not everything that gets rules in the new book just like we still don't have everything form the core book, but everything thats still missing from the core book plus a few from the expansion book should be coming together with the the new book

3- Normally I would say likely not since they say "Sold out Online" but they still display them on the webstore instead of removing them altogether and the Administratum sector terrain bundle that also was "Sold out Online" is back to just "Temporarily out of stock" so they might do another print run? Its not 100% but I would say there is a chance, but if they come back its very likely just one more print run and after that they are gone for good.
What I could also see happening is that we get new card packs for the expansion book with the new stuff and those may also include the old cards?

Do GW ever reprint cards? I thought cards were basically always a one-and-done thing from GW.

I wouldn't dwell too much on the cards. The second a new release comes out they are incomplete anyway.

This is very often the case. Sometimes they'll revisit old card sets... but it's once in a blue moon and completely unpredictable.

Generally, if GW produces something on a card, just use that as a hint to make your own. They're not worth the chase, or getting used to having them only to miss out on something later on because it sells out too fast.

We'll see what all is coming when this Sunday rolls around. I have a feeling they're holding off on revealing anything until we see the 30k reveals for solar auxilia, as there might be some crossover they are being coy about, like the Light Sentinel

GW said preorders this month. We know it won't be in preorder 20.1. Check the calendar how many saturday's left in january

GW generally doesn't tell everything and can be vaque(don't assume too much if they say "coming to you real soon") but if they flat out say this kind of thing flat out dates they are pretty honest about that(direct lying isn't generally good PR)

Of course there's always off chance of something weird happening(LI was originally in august release after all) but odds of another "pull back book due to error" at this point is pretty damn small.

In addition to the WarCom statement about "later this month"; The TGA rumour thread has a couple of regular rumour posters claiming that the next AOS wave was pushed back a week to Feb 3rd.

AOS is really the only major release that could plausibly 'compete' with LI in the near future, so Jan 27th now being clear is a good sign.

And good time too. I'm starting to run out of new army lists to try at this rate with existing models (hate playing identical lists game to game).

Though even at the BEST of times myself first time I get to field any new units is 22.2...And that's assuming FLGS get their orders in time THIS time. Last time it was 3 week late...Grumble grumble GW and their bloody delivery issues. TOW is ALSO late for the local FLGS it seems...

They put orders to GW right when it's possible but delivery dates or even do they get items(didn't get any marine infantry boxes for LI for example...) far from certain.

So I'm hoping to play with them on 22.2 but in my mind preparing for possibility of getting them on my hands on march :/ But at least I'll get chance to see other people's paintings in the meanwhile. And maybe more youtube battle reports. Better than nothing!
