t4play Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 All I would like is a way to get More than 1 unit of DC without having a jump pack Maybe instead of or part of red thirst roll for each unit on a certain number a member of the squad goes to DC Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285142-what-2014-will-bring/page/5/#findComment-3564827 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sabbacca Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 If they remove deep strike from my land raider Im quitting the game :P It would be interesting to see them do something with this unusual and often HILARIOUS rule to maybe make it useful outside of beerhammer. I think a simple points reduction to a lot of our units would help immensely, as well as altering Dante. I would love to use our chapter master in games but I have not had any luck with him outside of suicide melta units. I am pretty excited about this rumor since my friend (who plays Dark Eldar) is expecting his codex update this year as well.

Memento Of Prospero Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I want to see Landraider gain the same deepstriking failsafe rules as drop pods.

Xenith Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I mean for every hq you purchase you can buy 1 unit of death company without taking up a force organisation slotBut then you's still need your compulsory 2 troops. DC are good as is, they just need a cost reduction on the jump pack to... 7pts?

Jolemai Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Astorath goes between all the successor chapters so it's quite likely he'd appear with the Flesh Tearers at some point.

knife&fork Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I want to see Landraider gain the same deepstriking failsafe rules as drop pods. Technically you can already do something similar if you declare a tank shock against a unit from reserves. Any unit you scatter onto would have to either move 1" away or perform a death or glory. For vehicles you would auto stop 1" away and work out a ram. Random movement doesn't disallow tankshocks/ramming, nor does coming in from reserves. It's a kind of oddball situation that can only happen with our landraiders or DE raiders that buy the shock prow upgrade.

Not so sure anymore, after Seth beat him up in one of the Advent Calendar short stories... He didn't really beat him up, he realised that Astorath outclassed him so he destroyed his jump pack, dragged him off the platform and retreated, since he had made his message clear. Anyway, you can always do a count-as-Astorath "Flesh Tearer High Chaplain" if you wanna use Astorath, sadly you don't have the option to remove the jump pack.

Terrahawk Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Okay guys, spoilers ahead: Well, I wouldn't say Seth was outclassed, they were actually more or less even. Anyway, in the earlier story Astorath goes about to kill some Flesh Tearers Death Company, who have survived a battle. In the later story Seth travels to Baal to tell Astorath he won't be touching Battle-Brothers from his Chapter anymore. To make his point clear, they trade a few blows, and Seth vows "next time he won't be coming alone". Both stories are very short, like 5 pages each, but they are written by Andy Smillie, whose work I really dig. He really gets the Chapter.

Entei Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I don't want to derail the topic, but when saying he realised he was outclassed I was referring to this segment: "‘For all your strength, Flesh Tearer, for all of your anger and all your will to fight, you cannot best me. I am the chosen reaper of the lost.’ Astorath snarled and stepped away. Seth struggled to remain conscious. Astorath was right. He felt like he’d been hit by a thunder hammer. He pushed up to his knees. ‘I do not need to beat you.’ Blood and teeth spilled from Seth’s mouth as he spoke. ‘Only to stand against you.’ He got to his feet, wiping a hand across his lips. ‘Every minute you spend here is one in which you are not butchering our brothers.’" Back on topic: I would like it if we could have a Death Company Captain, who takes away the 0-1 limit and represents an officer fallen to the rage, similar to Tycho. Would be fluffy and removes the need to take Astorath for every army with more than 1 unit of DC.

Rafen IX Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I know I open myself to ridicule with this but I really liked the Sanguinor short story. It makes me wonder wether more will be revealed in the new codex. So there's another wish for 2014-15.

Chaplain Admetus Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 By all accounts (I haven't read it, but I've spoken to people who have) the Dante warlord story was really good. More of that sort of thing please, and less of the universally facepalm-inducing BloodCronShipping...

Blindhamster Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 written by ADB, so unsurprising the dante thing was very good, my favourite thing is that he litterally wasn't anyone special, he just happened to be the last one standing, my only gripe was the lack of info on whatever crime he committed that lead to the story of the sanguinor blessing him on the chaos ship, that sounds like two pretty important events in Lord Commander Dante's history, and neither are covered (but lots of other stuff is!!)
