Xenith Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Personally, as a chaos player my dreams have been shattered over and over again since we lost the 3.5 dex, so nothing new there. Chaos is the ultimate LARP faction. GW is actively engaging us in roleplay through it's army book releases. The 3.5 dex drops. Chaos gains momentum, the Legions are ascendent, loyalist marines tremble. Players are buoyed by the power at their fingertips., and we spill forth from the eye. Then Horus dies the 4.0 dex drops. The legions are shattered, scattered like dust in the wind. The Imperium forgets about us, their minds looking to more pressing issues those renegade Astral Claws. There is a bigger emphasis on recently turned marines. The legions lapse into memory. There is even that division amongst the player base, the Veterand of the Long War who were there during 3.5 (and most certainly have 'Hatred: Space Marines'), and the more recent renegades, who don't know what the longbeards are so bitter about.

incinerator950 Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Nah, it's funnier going over the older dexes with first and second gen players and trying to use the new dex to justify gw's awful shoehorning and milking policy, which has delivered a growing pile of dlc attachments and absolutely nothing valuable outside of anything goes. But that's none of my business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheex Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 As always, I remain cautiously optimistic about these rumors. I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to help myself if Berzerkers riding juggernauts did end up happening ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incinerator950 Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 I am working on my axelord on a juggernaut and already find the concept... Silly. Or maybe it's because my sanity and ideas are imploding and I have almost zero desire to go back to assembly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaliGn Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 The old metal bezerker riding a juggernaut model dates back to second Ed right? The juggernaut itself was OK as I recall although the look has changed somewhat since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thraxdown Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Does this mean the rumors for the 40k supplement/codex are likely false? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incinerator950 Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 When are they true? Very unlikely to receive a dataslate or supplement, but you're generally getting your hopes up for this faction if you don't take any of the rumors with excessive amounts of salt.

Rain Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 CSM are basically the Imperial Stormtroopers of 40k. We exist to give the Good Guys something to feel good about beating. At least that's how it's felt for years now, but I still can't bring myself to be interested in any other faction. Except Dark Eldar, but they just got the Chaos 4.0 treatment themselves so--eh. Who knows, maybe what they release will even be Necron Good to push models. Not that I care much since I barely ever play anymore, but, y'know.

Urauloth Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 That is not even remotely what I envisioned when I thought "end times bloodthirster". It looks like a giant Gûlavhar with a WHFB chosen axe. I haven't decided how I feel about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Tezdal Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Different from what I expected, but that's life. While I find it somewhat nifty probably won't indulge and buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rain Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 As bitter and twisted as I may seem (and am), I actually quite like it. I might even buy one. The picture is blurry, but it looks a lot less goofy that the plastic Daemon Prince sculpt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tikhunt Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 I don't know if I like it or not. It looks good enough I think but it isn't a Lord of Change which give it instant minus marks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's likely to mean that someone somewhere read a rumour and automatically connected it to 40k (as usual). Some bits may be 40k compatible and may see a data slate or Black Library style supplement.

Kol Saresk Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Yeah, in this case the 40K rumors were contingent on coinciding with the fantasy release. Fantasy has been confirmed, but the rumored Khorne upgrade that would(if true) coincide with it, has not yet been proven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
