Gentlemanloser Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Doh! Good catch! ;) Well, that's just even more points to play around with. Pick up a cheap GKGM to give 1-3 of your P-Gun/M-Gun Chimera Squads Scout. :( Or add some CC henchmen to the 5 Weaponsmith Squads in case the Chimera gets popped and they get Charged.

DinoDoc Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 I'm going to laugh if the final version has something akin to one roll per squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a pitance really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synack Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Saw this on BOLS I showed a certain PDF file to someone inside GW. He said that the PDF is ~5 months old, and the codex has been cleaned up a lot. The wording in many parts has been changed and made clearer, but it's more or less correct. He thought some of the point values may have been tweaked but he wasn't sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaosPhoenix Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Grey Knight preorders will be up next week. Black boxes with Terminators, Dreadknights and the codex are headed to the Games Workshops too. At least in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inache Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 With all the manliness I can muster at this news I say, Squee. I've been looking forward to the pre-order for weeks now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aeddon Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Not necessarily, there have been times when they had multiple release dated models in the advanced order section before. Why not now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt_Reaper Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 In preparation for the release I have started to paint my FW Grey Knight Dreadnought...I would paint Hector Rex but he is in the warp currently...or at my dads on my hobby table there -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not aware of these instances. :D As far as i'm concerened I would give my right kidney to see those models RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!! So if it is reasonable, given past experiences, then i'm all for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brovius Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Maybe it was a bad idea for the bank to approve me for a $7000AUD credit card... :evil The second the orders go up on Maelstrom, i'll be ordering 2 of everything (at least) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexHolker Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 The DE models go on sell 3/19/11. It seems to me that they won't put it on sale until after the DE go on sale. The DE 1.5 wave is pretty crap. Giving them exclusive focus for another couple of weeks wouldn't be worth losing a couple of weeks of buildup for the Grey Knights plastics and codex.

Utsujin Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Is it almost confirmed that psybolt ammo will basically upgrade their storm bolters to s5? If so, who wouldn't want to take that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedemptionNL Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Is it almost confirmed that psybolt ammo will basically upgrade their storm bolters to s5? If so, who wouldn't want to take that? Vehicles that want to fire those weapons as defensive weapons for one. Hurricane Bolters on Landraider Crusaders and Stormravens come to mind.

Good point there, on infantry units i could see wanting to take this all the time if the points were handy. Red has a perfect point about Vehicle small arms though, I don't want to lose the ability to shoot them for free. Psyflame ammunition is very interesting however a bit of a quandary. We don't see it on very many options in the codex but from the rumors about adding Rending I'm wondering how often we will see it. I was playing around with the idea of the heavy flamer Razorback with Psyflame ammunition, if the rumor holds up that Razorbacks are fast vehicles that is. Otherwise I think the Rhino is where its at, from what we see in the draft PDF at least. Firing two Psycannons or two Incinerators out of the top is brilliant since you can strap on an additional Storm Bolter (draft PDF might be wrong on this) for just that little bit of extra fire power.

gil galed Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 gah I want pictures so much... I can't contain myself much longer... Now I'm just trying to work out where I'm gonna get the money to buy all the things I want... By my reckoning... 2 x Dreadknight @ £35(if they are good) 1 x Terminator @ £28 1 x PAGK @ £20 1 x furiso dreadnought @30 (because I want a librarian one as a force weapon wielding CC dread of doom) Any character models @30 = £178 - 20% for online = £142 ... plus codex... gah! ~Gil ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resv Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 The plastic GKSS is rumored to be only 5 guys which bites. I really hope that the box comes with all of the possible Nemesis Weapon options for every model or I am going to be really disappointed. Regardless this drives up the cost of a GK army up quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utsujin Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Probably cheaper than the metal ones. I will NOT stop using my 40 or so odd metal PAGK, because they have halberds. That would be BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless this drives up the cost of a GK army up quite a bit. The metal one only had 5 guys too. A plastic box will be better in every way. While getting a Space Wolves pack would be great, it will probably be closer to the Death Company box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grimz Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 The manager at GW I was just at not 20 mins ago, said he's seen a sneak peak at the models. And that they are unbelievably good looking. Better than what you'd think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmk17 Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 We should find out shortly, black boxes should be out within the next two weeks. Dreadknight, Terminators, and a codex is the rumor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slind Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 I'm a bit confused about these Henshmen-spam-builds. When I look at the leaked info, you'll need an inquisitor for each henshmen warband you take. Coteaz only moves them from Elite to Troops, he does not remove the Inquisitor requirement... and since all inquisitors are HQ's, then how do you manage to cram 5-6 warbands into the list? Or is there something in small prints I have missed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
