Jolemai Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 That blood talons nerf makes me sad, even as expected as it was. How am I going to take out groups of 30 Termagaunts now?! Kill them with fire. Has worked for me through 7 editions so far. Missed the New Talon Rewlz; what are they rumoured to be? Cheers Apparently Blood Talons are in the new White Dwarf. Strx2, AP2 , Melee, Shred, Specialist Weapon. No more bonus attacks after wound. Knew it was coming, but there it is. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285142-what-2014-will-bring/page/62/#findComment-3872798 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHarrower Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 With my specific opponents, whilst torrent is always useful, it wouldn't necessarily be needed for these tanks to fulfill the role I have for them. I'm excited to try it out. It's not happening. Idle chatter is all.

Gaweda Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 What I mean is, I wasn't expecting torrent when I ordered them, and I don't need torrent for them to do what I want them to, so not getting torrent is no biggie.

Knew it was coming, but there it is. :) To be fair during the 6th I have rarely used them (they were glorious in the 5th out of Stormravens!) kind of expected the infinite attacks to go, and they did really need AP2. As for torrent on Flamestorms, I doubt it. Would be nice though lol What I do know is, I am getting excited about the Codex realise if only just to change it up :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285142-what-2014-will-bring/page/62/#findComment-3872846 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 But it just cheapens the Blood Fist further. Previously a dual fist Dreadnought gained a mere one attack, but had the higher strength and AP2 to make a difference. Now an upgrade to Talons should be an automatic choice.

The double fist dreadnought has +d6 armor penetration? (Or was that 3rd Edition? LOL). Regardless, the upgrade to Talons will probably have a cost to go with it if it adds Shredding, which might not be worth it in many cases.

SonOfThunder Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Or maybe GW wants to play with our minds and in the next codex the Blood fists will be the ones with special rules :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285142-what-2014-will-bring/page/62/#findComment-3872861 Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the fourth and fifth edition Codex it's a mere +1A. Whoopie do.

GrunTeufel Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Sure, thats what I think will happen if it ever happens. I still very much doubt it. Good things rarely happen these days when GW is concerned. What? Can you not see the awesome cheap boxed set, the incredible models etc etc ad nauseum? I meant rule sets. And we have only one new character and that isn't anything new really. He is basically lorenzo and gideons love child. I agree that the boxset is quite the bargain.

Cronhour Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 probably reading way t much into it but i was watching the second trailer for the new armageddon game and noticed a few things, we had grav gun tacticals, hunters, stalkers, and storm Talons but no centurions squads. the salamanders had centurions but no attack bike squads (unlike the BA) probably nothing but an indicator of how sick I am of waiting for the new codex but it could be a hint on and on the torrent issue it's probably not going to happen but without it I find flamestorm baals pretty pointless as with their rear armour being what it is they're just a one shot investment easily counter assaulted after getting one template off.

appiah4 Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 Re.

Rafen IX Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 Cutting me some slack because Black Friday isn't much of a British phenomena.

tsijben Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 via an anonymous source on Faeit 212 Lots of releases next week including some surprises. There are lots of hobbit releases, including Smaug. Smaug is extremely huge will be listed for expert modelers only. Of course he is going to cost you almost 500 dollars US, but this is a huge model standing over lots of gold and two columns with Bilbo hiding beneath. Blood angels get their codex next week. The cover is an assault marine wielding a plasma pistol and and chainsword, overall a nice looking cover. Blood Angels also get new datacards and dice, but more importantly blood angels get a new tactical squad with lots of options. Shoulder pads, helmets and blood angel symbols are everywhere. It looks like a full box of bits. Heavy Flamer is also in the box. Last but least there is a new Sanguinary Priest with with a extra machinery on the backpack, a blood chalice, and a nice looking chainsword.
