The NEW "What will 2014 Bring?" thread

I think if there is one thing that is clear from recent codicies is that GW doesn't consider congested force organisations a problem anymore - I suspect they see unbound/multiple force orgs as the solution

 

So I wouldn't be surprised to see dreads, furiosos and Libby dreads all in elite

Do we know if Glaive Encarmine(s) are AP2 across the board?

 

It's a shame having low initiative power weapons on speedy BA combat gods!

I would be surprised if Glaives are AP2 across the board.

 

Honestly, AP2 at initiative weapons should be rare.  I hope Dante (or Astorath) gets one, or maybe Sanguinor or Mephiston but that would be it.

interesting that the dread has moved to the already overcrowded elite selection, from heavy support.

Same thing in the SW and GK codices. Probably just normalising some things across the entire astartes line.

dreads were never a hs choice in the sw dex, to my memory. it was a ward brain wave.

For the record, if that now ends up goin round teh interwebs I made it for B&C banter... Cuz Weez da Best thumbsup.gif

matt ward didnt leave 40k alone. he only has himself to blame.

Its their own fault for letting a fanboi near games development, if I had the chance one chaos marine would own an entire company of space smurfs (and rightfully so). But swiftly moving along before the mods pull us up for turning it into another Ward hate thread... So, thems Red Speshmahreenz huh? lookin pretty neat thumbsup.gif

Guys. Think before slagging off Ward.

Dreads were in the HS section in the 3rd ed codex, which is about 15 years old, and nothing to do whatsoever with Mat Ward. They go there, as to allow the BA to have greater amounts of dreads, as BA prefer dreads to other tanks as they can fight in combat.

Moving them away from HS is the odd thing here. Makes me wonder what's going in there instead?

The composition of a battle company on 3rd say it is 1 cap, 1 chaplain, 1 librerian, 1 command squad, 1 dreads, 6 tactical, 2 assoult, 2 devastaitor, 8 rinos, 1 razorback...

were does it say they use more dreads? were does it say that? i stell have the codex... i know is foling apart but have it...

Did we have the following pics already?

I might have missed it from all the SQUEEEE'ing:

PS. SQUEEEEEE, 165 SG's!

I haven't seen these. I'll add them to my post.

Are there any confirmed pics of the 165? My squinting makes it look like 245, but with:

WS5, BS4, S4 T4 I4 W...2? and 3A?

Just confuses me as people were going on about 95 pt dreads when it clearly says 100?

Nope. Just SpikeyBitz saying that Sanguinary Guard are max size 10 with those 2 pics. I don't know how you can make anything out on that pic. 2 wounds? jawdrop.gif

Sooo...according to this, Jump packs no longer confer the Descent of Angels special rule. I hope we're getting something equally fun for that!

That's not necessarily true. The codex could just be written differently such that the rule is attached to the model, not the wargear. That would just be a clarification of our current 'dex.

Page 35 of the BA Codex Rumour thread has a WD battle scene with BAs, and it certainly looks like a possible new Termie kit (can't do the image on my phone right now). Could be conversions but Sgt. looks like a new sculpt with tabard, shield and top plate icon. TH Termies next to him also have new/different top plate icons as well as a heraldic shoulder plate on one

 

Could someone oblige with the pic?

 

Also, the Libby to the left of the squad also looks new-ish.

 

Thoughts?
