ContemptuousAngel Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Did anyone else notice that "Blood Angels" is actually the subtitle of our codex? The full title is "Codex Adeptus Astartes Blood Angels." By contrast, the SW codex is titled "Codex Space Wolves." Does this mean we can take options from Imperial Armour V2 assigned to Codex Space Marines? Am I just reaching in the vain hope to be able to use my expensive ass models and book?

Joasht Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Eh, someone will come and argue with you that Space Marines =/= Adeptus Astartes because RAW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ContemptuousAngel Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 I know. Sucks ass. I've already started flesh tearing up my Storm Eagle. That was a 200 dollar + investment, between the model, book, and shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joasht Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 You could always run it in a multi-CAD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ContemptuousAngel Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 I think I could also use the seige assault vanguard detachment.According to errata we can use Fire raptors. What the hell? We can use fire raptors but not storm Eagles???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joasht Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 GW works in mysterious ways man. I'm still confused why we didn't get the Stormtalon, Land Speeder Storm or Centurions despite us being a codex chapter.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaezus Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Just get the 'Sanguinary Guard' edition. You know, the one with a tactical marine on the front *roll eyes* compared to the vanvet on the standard dex. Sanguard ed just says codex Blood Angels. So I guess I'm gonna miss out. Actually it says that on the front but on the spine it says adeptus astartes - blood angels. Winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Eh, someone will come and argue with you that Space Marines =/= Adeptus Astartes because RAW. Eh, there is people arguing that Centurions can embark on a drop pod bought as a dedicated transport by a Thunderfire Cannon. If we take everything at RAW value, we would be scumbags indeed.

ContemptuousAngel Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 I wonder if we can take a storm eagle according to IA 1 V2. But I'm not buying another 100$ book in order to play one model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 We can use Storm Eagles. People have emailed Forgeworld and not only has it been allowed, but it will be in the next FAQ for that book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blindhamster Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Yeah I'm one of said people. Watch this space and we will get storm eagles :) I have an email that says we can too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blindhamster Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 this thread: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298977-no-storm-eagle-for-the-blood-angels/?hl=%2Bstorm+%2Beagle&do=findComment&comment=3856624 correct, however Forgeworld are working on FAQs currently that will make it legal to blood angels, I have an email from them saying exactly that and that I should consider it legal in games till the FAQ comes out. (I'll paste email later on).this has been a dodgy subject for me, I've pestered them about it at every event, and via email a few times, they mentioned around april time that we'd get an FAQ making it legal eventually, I quoted them on it last month and they confirmed the team are working on FAQs currently as the main books are written right at this moment.this was from September Hi there.Our rules team are actually working on a series of FAQs and errata now (as they are in between book releases) including the various areas of the Space Marines that we need to look at. However, we can confirm that Storm Eagles can and will be used by Blood Angels armies so please treat them as such.If there is anything further we can do to assist you, or if you have any queries about the information we have requested or provided, please telephone us.Regards,Forge WorldIf you have a query about your order, please call0115 900 4995 within the UK011 44 115 900 4995 from the US and Canada00 44 115 900 4995 from much of EuropeOur office hours are:0930 – 1800 (GMT) Monday to Friday0930 – 1700 (GMT) Saturday and this was from March: Hi Alsidair,Thak you for your email. In answer to your questions:1. The Blood Angel Contemptor Dreadnought has its own rules separate from the standard Contemptor. You'll find these in Imperial Armour Apocalypse2. The Blood Angels can take both the Storm Eagle and Fire Raptor, we will be updating the FAQ in the near future to reflect this.3. We have not yet looked at the Blood Angels in the Heresy era, we will certainly be looking at them for a future Horus Heresy book.If there is anything further we can do to assist you, or if you have any queries about the information we have requested or provided, please telephone us.Regards,Forge WorldIf you have a query about your order, please call0115 900 4995 within the UK011 44 115 900 4995 from the US and Canada00 44 115 900 4995 from much of EuropeOur office hours are:0930 – 1800 (GMT) Monday to Friday0930 – 1700 (GMT) Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsijben Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Yeah, we 'can' use it because they confirmed it in a mail. They promised us a FAQ-update, but that was quite a long time ago. I've actually hidden the option in BS because FW took too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Yet you allow us to take all the varieties of Deimos Predators on BS... :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsijben Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Actually there is both a Deimos Predator (which we cannot take) and a Deimos Predator Executioner! http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Downloads/Product/PDF/p/Predator_Executioner.pdf But let's get back on topic :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
