<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Finally got my new Vigilus book “set” from UPS"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/69.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Finally got my new Vigilus book “set” from UPS FA choice, one HS choice, and two Elite Choices. You’re likely to ping the rule of 3 three times with Eliminators, Supressors, and Warsuits and/or Reivers. Sandwiching the AOR between the new Ancient model, and crusade rules for a “Banner of Renown” when the AOR can’t take a banner is… a poor decision.

I don’t play Sisters but the Sisters rules seemed pretty nice.

Comparing it to the first two Vigilus books - Especially Vigilus Defiant, I’m kind of wondering where the rest of this book is. It feels pretty thin rules wise compared to the first two.

The Wars of Faith mission pack booklet is pretty nice, I think they basically reprinted the rules part of the rules book behind the Crusade mission stuff. And the Crusade stuff is making me wish I was in a Crusade campaign right now. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/803665/11312577.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/803665/11312577.page GMT Finally got my new Vigilus book “set” from UPS
I bought the book of Rust and promptly learned my lesson.

Seems only worth it if you need to have a physical copy for a tournament, or have pre-arranged a campaign using the included rules.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/803665/11313544.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/803665/11313544.page GMT Finally got my new Vigilus book “set” from UPS
It frustrates me that they reprint the core rules in all the mission packs- I've always thought it would make more sense to print the Crusade rules from the BRB in Crusade mission packs.

But what I would really like to see if the mission packs and campaign books combined- there's so much crusade stuff in the campaign books... Maybe they could pull the Crusade stuff out of the campaign book and drop it into the Crusade mission pack and then create extra matched content for the campaign book to fill the space.

Anyway, I think the war of faith stuff could be really fun- I'm not really a marine player, but I have lots of Sisters and I'm looking to expand my Guard once their dex drops. I haven't picked up VA yet- I was planning on buying it off the shelf, but it hasn't hit my store yet. So if yours came in, hopefully my store will have some copies soon.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/803665/11313557.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/803665/11313557.page GMT Finally got my new Vigilus book “set” from UPS

You mean this one that GW provided free in advance of the publication of Vigilus Ablaze?

That was my point. They did and should have given those datasheets free - especially as they're a minor update to an existing datasheet. There should have been completely new datasheets in the book and they should have been Phobos oriented - a Phobos Chaplain, another FA choice, and another HS choice maybe? Phobos Apothecary? That AOR is pretty bad. I think even Custodes had more variety in their early days. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/803665/11313653.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/803665/11313653.page GMT Re:Finally got my new Vigilus book “set” from UPS GW has done that for editions now.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/803665/11313661.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/803665/11313661.page GMT Finally got my new Vigilus book “set” from UPS

The only things you're not hitting Rule of Three on are HQ's (Which you pretty much can't because of Chapter Command), troops (Which the Rule of three doesn't apply to) and the one unit of Reivers.

They could have made the model exist too. I thought that was strongly implied, but if not, assume I meant that too.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/803665/11313662.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/803665/11313662.page GMT Finally got my new Vigilus book “set” from UPS
