Augustus Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I'd figure rules for super orks as orks are as powerful (in apeoximation) to their opponents. Also I'm sure the Eldar would have a lot of super goodies from before the empire fell apart.

Fire Golem Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 The Eldar empire fell apart before the Heresy though. Why would they have stuff then but not now? And yeah, Alan Bligh loves him some parasites haha.

Daemon2027 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Well, I guess the Eldar population must have been a lot larger in 30k, seeing as they survive another 10k years. In that time they may have lost some technology. They have popped up a few times, tried to kill Fulgrim and Angron(twice), and seem to be working both with and against tje cable. I think the farseer's in general would have forseen the heresy to a certain extent and kept their people out of it knowing it would weaken the imperium.

Daemon2027 Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I think next time we see the Death Guard in a big role in a forge world book will be Grulgor and the fall of the Legion.

Fire Golem Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 When they turn to Nurgle? Yeah I'd imagine so, that could even be at the Siege, explaining how they got there kinda thing.

Yeah the current fluff has them becoming becalmed in the warp and becoming infected by Nurgles many inventions and fell to worship him in order to save themselves. I wonder if FW will tone this down a bit to allow no plague marine Death Guard to be be at the siege, maybe with proto-plague marines.

Probably, as FW seems to really like the 'contrary to what you've been told, not everyone did that' thing. So I'd say it's almost certain that there will be a slight retcon so that some of the DG legion don't get becalmed with Mortarion.

Daemon2027 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 It makes sense to, the whole Legion wouldn't have been together to get becalmed.

b1soul Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share Posted June 18, 2015 Any word on whether Alpha Legion vs. WS/SW will be covered in a future book? It's briefly mentioned in Tempest Hardly, it's not like either of them died or any alignments were changed. It was a duel, that's all, and didn't have any impact on the Heresy. Would have to disagree. Every primarch fight is pretty significant IMO Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303235-any-chance-of-a-chondaxalaxxes-fw-book/page/2/#findComment-4091970 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascanius Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 They may not intend to do 30K Orks and Eldar any time soon, but it wouldn't be impossible to imagine that they'd get to it after they cover the Siege of Terra.

Daemon2027 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Doubt there will be a book for that unless it's expanded into a larger conflict. Death Guard are also engaged against the Dark Angels and at some point they need to get together and become becalmed.

m_r_parker Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 I've read Scars, so I'm aware of the skirmish between the Khan and Mortarion on the ruins of Prospero. What I am unaware of, or haven't heard anything about, is ForgeWorld turning Prospero into a two book series with the second focussing on these events. I've been to the major ForgeWorld events over the past couple of years, attended seminars about the direction of the Heresy series, and chatted to people like Alan Bligh about future plans - and this hasn't come up at all. What has come up at various points has been: > Prospero: Space Wolves, Thousand Sons, Custodians and Sisters of Silence (still being worked upon) > Shadow Crusade: Follow-on from Calth, with Word Bearers, Wold Eaters and Ultramarines (was meant to follow directly on from Calth, but may not) > Mars: Mechanicum Civil War, more comprehensive Mechanicum lists with elements for Dark Mechanicum. > Signus: Originally brought up about a year ago and containing Signus Prime (Blood Angels vs Daemons), Thramas (Dark Angels vs Night Lords) and maybe White Scars - but this has dropped off the radar a bit. > Another 'Conquest' style book - this was fresh from the Warhammer World Grand Opening, and may include Shatterred Legions. This could be bumped up the schedule.

It's a duel. Doesn't need a book for that. As Parker said, there's been no mention of a second Prospero book, and they definitely won't make a second Prospero book for a dual between the Khan and Mortarion. It might get a section in whatever book the WS are in, but it's really not that big a moment in the heresy.

Wouldn't brush it off as a duel...more like a skirmish between the two legions' elites Khan vs. Mortarion Keshig vs. Deathshroud I agree it doesn't deserve its own book, obviously. However, why would it not perfectly serve as a section of the Propero Book(s)? > Signus: Originally brought up about a year ago and containing Signus Prime (Blood Angels vs Daemons), Thramas (Dark Angels vs Night Lords) and maybe White Scars - but this has dropped off the radar a bit. > Another 'Conquest' style book - this was fresh from the Warhammer World Grand Opening, and may include Shatterred Legions.
