Marshal_Roujakis Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Â Knowing that Templars are now beating everyone with the Successor Chapters twitter question, they'd be foolish if they don't follow up their Templars with ZEAL Twitter question?

Lords of Preyspire Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Oooohh, I like the idea that chaplains might have add a dispel buff. Possible should be a slightly lesser version than a librarian would have but still a cool idea. Â I might be getting the wrong end of the stick but does it say that factions get 1 lore. Not really a fan of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 All I know is that this will in all likelihood mean I need a whole different group of models I don't own, and/or the obsolescence of models that I do own. Â Damn edition changes. Â The truest bane of slow painters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it. They want rules for all units out day 1. That means they need to make rules compatible with the boxes they do sell. Now of course, if you have overspecialised and only have Grav-weaponry and special/heavy, you may be in trouble, but otherwise and else, I don't see them making the chainsword and bolt pistol initiate redundant.

Acebaur Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Well Mr Grumpy Chaplain, this is according to GW's FAQ on the new edition  Can I still use all my models?Yes. Every Warhammer 40,000 miniature we sell today will be usable in the new edition of Warhammer 40,000. What’s more, they’ll be supported with new rules, which will be available from the get go in handy, low-cost books.  So I'm not too concerned about that. I'm personally very happy that it seems like vehicles are getting a much needed boost in durability as I prefer mechanized armies over footslogging. I also like that marines seem like they will be more durable that before as well. Using the LC as an example we'll now get a save against stuff that was AP2/3 in the previous editions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I don't mean the models can't be used, I just mean new rules makes different models relatively poopy, and others suddenly awesome. Â Like buffing dreadnoughts in the last dex, or the death of Rhino rush. Â And I'm not Grumpy. Â Grumpy is a descriptor of a most notorious xenos kitten, and I am offended by such a comparison! Â I'm curmudgeonly. Â :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d3m01iti0n Posted April 29, 2017 Author Share Posted April 29, 2017 Just got a box of Neos to round out my Bolter squad so it would be a shame not to get an update. First time to my local game shop in a while and they really stocked up on 40K. Bunch of Scouts and all the labelled SW:A units and scenery. They're definitely ramping up for this edition.

Marshal_Roujakis Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 The major annoyance I'm having right now is the prospect of these... "Marines 2.0"....

Marshal Arthur Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Fear not. New marines may be larger in body but they will never match our zeal. Also, with Armageddon a confirmed war zone, and site of an invasion of Khorne flakes, do you think they'll retcon Yarrick and Helbrecht's hunt for Ghazgkul? I think I'd be okay with seeing our brothers chainsawing Orks and Daemons alongside the Steel Legions. Or maybe Grimaldus will, yet again, be sent down to the planet with a crusade while Helbrecth and Yarrick are elsewhere. I kind of like the idea of a Triumverate of Armageddon with Grimaldus, some Salamander who he has to make peace with, and Andrej (I'm joking of course but a man can dream).

But then again, people who build armies/models for optimum efficiency are well aware that every new book/rule/codex may throw their entire army off balance. There might be a market again for lascanon centurions, bikes without grav and/or shield/power fist etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am rather excited about this new edition because from what I've read it seems that it might get me back to playing. But this bigger Marines nonsense really hits hard. So I feel you. Â Still, despite this - we will endure. And you have an amazing collection of unique, converted and well-painted crusaders. Don't ever forget about that and try not to waste any sleep over GW's actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kastor Krieg Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Then you'd have to reject games with Deathwatch players and with kSon players. You'd reject a chance to burn a witch, only because the witch is slightly taller?Tsk, tsk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Actually, I wouldn't mind playing against Marines that are taller... easier to shoot and see after all... but I already got called out once for "wrong" base sizes (28mm vs 32mm) and there was a slight dispute which caused me to walk out...

Especially since GW has explicitly clarified that models on "original" bases were perfectly acceptable. Some people will just take any angle tyo try and win a game without having to actually play.

Lords of Preyspire Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Interesting that you went for Ekene over Lysander. it would be really interesting to see where they all fit in any kind of re-legion-ification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewChristlieb Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 The Emperor's Pride needs some love, I'd be happy with an Ekene model. Â Also a snippet of the shooting phase is upon community site. No shooting if enemy is within 1", awesome. No snap fire, -1BS. Awesome. Oh and all the haters at the flgs who said I should put shotguns on my Neophytes instead of BP/chainsword... let me show you my angry marine fingers.

Acebaur Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 So if you have pistols it seems that you can shoot them in combat which basically means extra attacks. Assault troops who have bp/cc just got a lot better :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
