Ditto. I actually like using full-size Knights, so I just need the one Ruinator. I've got enough War Dogs.

Quick math: 12 datasheet cards suggests at least one existing sheet is getting split up. There are currently 10, and the Ruinator makes 11. Perhaps two Knights Tyrant?


It's probably a card with the faction rules.

A Ruminator and the odd unit of Chaos cultists would have mixed it up nicely.

Now that I think about, it's probably 'Knight Despoiler' and 'Knight Despoiler with Two Ranged Weapons'. My Knight with double rapid-fire battle cannons has a pretty brutal reputation.

New from Valrak (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaEptHALN48) -

New White Scar on a jetbike character is https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Suboden_Khan

New Ultramarine Captain Centos model, based on the 100th US store anniversary model (https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Centos). Will have some form of hybridised armour between Primaris and firstborn (from me: presumably a Mk 7 helmet like the Sternguard?)

More older parts of armour creeping in to the Marine range next edition.

Future Kill Teams (not necessarily the next six, and presumably some are just upgrade kits) - Eldar Exodites, Grey Knights vs Khorne Bezerkers, Necron Skorpekh/Litchguard vs Deathwatch.

Kill Team stuff is supposedly from a new source so take it for what you will.

Ever since we saw that trailer last year, I've been assuming the plan is to make a replacement for the Deathwatch Vets (trailer was vs Necrons fwiw). I'd not be at all surprised if it lines up with the options available in Space Marine 2.

WAIT WHAT?

Have we an actual verified rumour or is this another "lore article" or "animated video about exodites that doesn't really even include an exodites*"


*Yes I know the one Eldar we see was one, but honestly he was kitted out and shown off more like a ranger than an Exodites - there wasn't a single dinosaur either

You have to combine this with the earlier rumours hat there might be a toughness drop across the board I think for it to make sense.

I never thought I would ever say this... I hope that's not true, because a nerfed Chaos Knights is not a good sign for the Questoris Knights.

Toughness drops for Knights seems pretty locked in. I doubt the stats printed on the instructions were a mistake.

About the Knights: Don't the points costs drop a bit too? Meaning the toughness drop goes in hand with a points drop. That's also what was mentioned/shown in the leaks.


Also about the Exodites/Exodites kill team coming... There was a recent interview with the design/sculpting? team and they mentioned or hinted at them indirectly. I think the way it happened was with mention of key words which meant it's for actual miniatures and not just for lore. Reddit had a post trying to point it out but I think most people didn't really get it or understand the subtle significance. Anyway Exodites are coming. One way or another. Eventually! Not sure if it's this year or next though.

The instructions that came with the Christmas battle force had the Paladin/Errant at 11 toughness and 26 wounds. Also down to OC 8.

Then we'd better start getting 2+ saves.

Or cheaper, which was their chosen solution.
