KBA Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I'm excited for it. Come on Royal Mail! The Solar Auxilia list looks great, but FW boxed themselves into a corner with real life prices. Because of the unit sizes, etc only really serious 30K fans will be able to afford a full army. The bundles help, but I for see lots of counts as or just allied detachments. I'm hoping future Imperial Army lists expand the options so I can use the DKoK range I already have (Grenadier with Volkite conversion ) The lasrifle section looks like a deal to me compared to the price of 20 tech thralls. And I'm going to run a lot of tech thralls. What did you order, hyaenidae? A super heavy? Primaris lightning? Stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

depthcharge12 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Well if it's an ark of the covenant or holy grail for my Dark Angel Praetor, I will need to name him Harrison Jones. After all, it will be his... *ahem* B) ..Last Crusade!!! YEAAAAAAAAAAH!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balthamal Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 The Dark Angel specific one is pretty meh tbh. Blood Angels, Salamanders, SoH and Word Bearers are the big winners. The SoH is called the Cataphractii Primus - bit obvious what it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Rohr Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 Fear plays more of a role in 30K than 40k. Iirc, only NL and DG don't have to take fear tests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol yeah my super special awesome relic doesn't affect two out of the 9 legions I'm fighting against :( I guess for all the good that Alan Bligh giveth, he must taketh away...

Marshal Rohr Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 Brother, they haven't even given you Legiones Astartes Rules yet. What if part of their rules is that fear always applies at a -2 modifier or something? It's FW, you know everything will make sense eventually.

Lol yeah my super special awesome relic doesn't affect two out of the 9 legions I'm fighting against I guess for all the good that Alan Bligh giveth, he must taketh away... NL cause fear, they're not fearless. And they only cause it with Curze around unless you're a Terror squad. So 1 out of 9 legions. Word Bearers test on 3D6 though, so I guess 1.5/9? It could actually be a really powerful relic if you can get enough units stuck in to combat at once. It'd be really helpful if the DA would get some kind of special unit that could move and charge really fast, like on bikes or something.......

That why we were fighting the Night Lords, the least scary of the 18 legions :P Jokes aside, does anyone know what that "thing" was that rose out of Isstvaan 5?

The First Legion has relics from before the birth of any other legion. The fear, dread, and intimidation caused by these ancient and revered relics should not be underestimated. Steel your nerve, and your tongue. The Dark Angels are made of sterner stuff than this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 but more like an overwhelming dread at facing the Primus Legio. If you haven't noticed, I want to believe that some emphasis will be placed on the Dark Angels status as the first legion. Not just a random number, but the first among the astartes. Just like the I Legion, thinking that number actually means something. *facepalm* Aye. I'm an idiot. K, most everything looks pretty neat.... except the White Scars' relic. A bow? For real? I mean, I know we got swords and space magic, but... a bow? Just make some nasty gun and call it a bow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
