What would you like to see in Massacre?

As the title suggest, what would you like to see in the next FW HH book, Massacre.

I would like....

The army list from Be
In terms of Legions...

Iron Hands
.In general, a special rule that factors in bionic augmentation, such as 5+ or maybe 6+ Feel No Pain - maybe pay 1/2 points extra per model for 5+ Feel No Pain
. The Morlocks as the bodyguard of Ferrus Manus. It would be cool if they could have WS5 like other elite units.
. Gabriel Santar.
. Some benefit to Techmarines?
. A really hard statline for Ferrus Manus to reflect his abilities. In one of Nick Kyme's novels it says Ferrus was the strongest and toughest Primarch, and only Vulkan was level with him in terms of strength and endurance.  I'm thinking S7, T7, W6, and the same for Vulkan. This makes them not quite as tough as Morty, but still the 'hardest' per se.
. EDIT: A FW kit for Iron Hands Augmentations. I need this bad http://www.warseer.com/forums/warseer/images/smilies/smile.png

Salamanders
. An army wide special rule, like He'stan's, but different.... allow multi-meltas on Terminators etc... Master crafted stuff...
. The Firedrakes. Hopefully with flamey equipment.
. The Pyre Guard. These guys should be incredible.
.Numeon, the leader of the Pyre Guard to be a real close combat hero.
. Some nice rules for Vulkan, as he doesn't do much after Istvaan. Hopefully a rule to reflect his artificer equipment.


What would you like? I haven't included Traitors because I'm not much interested in them, but that's just my opinion....

I would like to see special dreads for the iron hands

Also want to see iron fathers, basically combine the forge lord and chaplain centurions together.

Salamanders should be able to take tactical support squads as compulsory troops if armed with flamers or meltas

Lets not forget Corax and his boys. What I want to see is something regarding the night lords and, fresh from his escape from imprisonment Curze then being given the order to support the culling of The Sons of Horus. love that imperial bureaucracy!

 

Stats for Sevatar, can't wait...might run a heretic army of night lords.

I'm a big fan of the HH books because as well as bringing 30K to the table they give a lot of interesting lore that we haven't read before, I never really liked Ferrus Manus due to the fact that I knew nothing about him (very stupid of me),  from reading Fulgrim I placed him in the top 5 of my most liked Primarchs. It was a shame he died without getting more books dedicated towards his character, hopefully the FW HH will fill in some gaps and give him justice.

I am just waiting for all the books to come out as they are tantalizingly slow to come out as I see the series as more of a social benefit for all the older/veteran gamers who have the funds for forgeworld and have gotten bored with the 40k universe.

 

I am also hopeful for other releases into the series as the lists and units provide a lot of balance (even the moritat has balance, especially with the faq), uniqueness, and variety. And while we still see common themes with current lists, more people are leaning towards armies that have a theme or fluff and not copypastespam. The new books will definitely improve the quality and quantity of the game.

 

And though the AdMech are supposed to get a list, I still hope for an add on maybe later in the series if FW changes their mind, for a xenos faction book for the great crusade (I mean come on: orks, eldar, Laer, centaur dudes, etc.!)

Betrayer seems to cover mainly four legions WE, SoH, DG and EC. If they were to continue like this id say that we will see Iron Hands, Salamanders, Raven Guard and maybe Alpha Legion, with Admec as an extra. This would then leave book three to cover Thramas (?) and Prospero dealing with Dark Angels, Night Lords, Space Wolves and Thousand Sons with Custodes and Sisters of Silence as the extra. Book four could then focus on Calth and Ultramar dealing with the Ultramarines, Word Bearers and maybe demon Angron. This would leave the Iron Warriors and Imperial Fists to be dealt with at the battle of Terra. Just my two cents.

It's already been confirmed that Massacre is Iron Hands, Night Lords, Salamanders and Word Bearers with a basic Mechanicum list and that book three is going to be Alpha Legion, Imperial Fists, Iron Warriors and Raven Guard. Both are going to cover the Dropsite Massacre in a 2-part series while Book 3 also covers the battle of Phall between the Imperial Fists and Iron Warriors. It's just that other than a few select basics, we don't really know what is going to be in the Codex in terms of rules and any new non-Legion specific units.

 

If you want, these two topics can catch you up on everything mactire.

You'll have to read a bit before you start seeing everything though, so I apologize for that.
