-Rulebook?
-Intro to play and a couple missions
-No more templates!! (Can't tell if I love this or hate this)
-Maybe some cardboard terrain?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9330094.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9330094.page GMT Any ideas what the new starter set will be?

Sounds like a great opportunity to introduce plastic sisters...


Except there is no precedent to release plastic Sisters unless they were going to toss in the Saint and we both know the ludicrously overpowered Saint is not making it in a starter box.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9334260.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9334260.page GMT Any ideas what the new starter set will be?
I always prefer the old WHFB starter because they always bring to the table different armies. The 40k ones ALWAYS had Space Marines in one, but 3 editions with space marines vs skipy/bloated space marines is a little boring... I always look for starter sets, I normally love the monopose units they bring, and is the foundation I always use to start new armies. But this is meh...

For what the starter will be, I think Nu-marines and Death Guard is preti obvious, and for the contents I think something like that rumour that was basically putting as "starter content" something aproximate to what you can see in that photo with a dude and a girl playing.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9334266.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9334266.page GMT Any ideas what the new starter set will be? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9334270.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9334270.page GMT Any ideas what the new starter set will be?

Another Space Marines vs Chaos Marines for the third time in a row is a little tiresome, to be honest.

3 Editions? 6th and 7th were the same box and 5th had AoBr.

And SM and CSM are arguably the easiest armies to start. Easy to put together, paint, play at beginner-level. Why wouldn't assume the starter box is those two armies?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9334273.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9334273.page GMT Re:Any ideas what the new starter set will be?
They haven't said what the five books will be, so maybe they'll have different starter sets that each include two of the "compendiums" and the core rules?

On their new website they list six active war zones (Ultramar, Damocles, Baal, Armageddon, Fenris, Cadia). Maybe they'll release a starter box for each war zone?

They probably won't release six different starter boxes, but it would be cool if they did.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9334286.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9334286.page GMT Any ideas what the new starter set will be?

6th, 7th and 8th. 3 editions with Space Marines vs Chaos Space Marines.

And I'm totally sure that they will be the box, I wasn't negating that. I was just saying that personally I find it boring to have that setup for a third time.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9334318.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9334318.page GMT Any ideas what the new starter set will be? 40K to see what they game is about.

I don't know what came before Dark Vengeance (my entry into 40K) and don't much care. I understand veteran players would like access to less expensive (and even new models), but that is another type of product or discussion.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9334329.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724515/9334329.page GMT
