Marshal Loss Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 It's great that we will have archetype rules for warbands that follow one of the four gods, as marks are currently terrible at actually representing god-devoted forces on the tabletop.

Excessus Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Crimson Slaughter was a cool warband, GW spent a lot of time developing their background (which was really cool) and it's nice to see they haven't been abandoned after their latest lore.

Charlo Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Could add some pretty nifty options to all of them. If they are getting the sort of love the Crimson Fists got in the IA article in WD (which seems likely) they'll be solid.

Marshal Loss Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Not quite that much - they will receive a treatment similar to the Legions (Trait/Warlord Trait/Stratagem/Relic). Still a big step in the right direction, but not quite as comprehensive as what the Crimson Fists received with their multiple relics & stratagems. And based on the picture in the preview article, it doesn't look like they get a lot of lore, bar whatever they get up to in the actual Vigilus campaign.

Excessus Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 One of the best parts of their new 8th ed design imho. They can just add factions to the mix with their own unique mix of rules.

Prot Posted March 18, 2019 Author Share Posted March 18, 2019 Crimson Slaighter were buried pretty heavily by the end of 7th. It does surprise me that GW are treating them as a valid fighting force again. As mentioned there was a lot of effort put into them over the past few Codexes (since 6th?) But the fiction towards the end of 7th is fairly straight forward in indicating that they were thrown to the slaughter by Abaddon. And as a result Kranon took off with his LT's and starting killing Black Legionaires. Â Interesting twist, but a bit awkward if you ask me.

Scourged Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Not gonna lie... I'm a bit excited about this news. Never thought I'd see the day where The Scourged get their own rules. And right at the time I'm finally finishing my Alpha Legion. Ah such a wonderful time to hobby.

40kChrista Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 The Flawless Host is cool news. I quite enjoy their paint scheme.  So do I, I searched a while for something to base my Slaanesh Renegades on... it came down to Flawless Host and Angels of Ecstasy. In the end, I just happen to stumble upon a spray paint that was just a shade darker than Rakarth Flesh and that pretty much made my decision for me.

El_Dicko Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I’m really curious about the new rules. I’ve got a squad of the old metal plague marines that I’m painting as The Purge CSMs since they look so puny next to Death Guard, as well as some Nurgle Warp Talons.

GreaterChickenofTzeentch Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Fallen detachment looks interesting. Their stratagem is good and Cypher messing with people's ability to farm command points is great. Being able to add Rhinos and Chaos Sorcerers is huge, so even if Fallen stay Elites, you could field both a Vanguard with Cypher and a Supreme Command with 3x Sorcerers.  We'll see how it plays out.

Trevak Dal Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I just hope Fallen don't suck. The unit of Fallen are basically worse Chosen, or "Yo dawg, I want to take an army of chosen, but that rule of three be a pain and all" and were left behind when chosen got buffed (still say they should be wide open, if you want 10 guys with plasma guns, plasma pistols and powerfists you should be able to get them with that, or 10 guys with dual plasma pistols, though you now can take every guy has a power weapon so that's cool, if redundant in the face of terminators and warp talons existing) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/337739-dark-raiders-renegade-astartes-for-8th/page/8/#findComment-5280539 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish the hit about Chaos Space Marines has been a part of the codex proper...  Yup that is the nice thing about the new renegade traits, there's now a whole range of unique renegade traits you can use to represent any sort of renegade chapter force. I will also likely be using Red Corsairs for my own unique renegade chapter, gaining a bonus from using standard marines just seems too good to pass up on.  Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/337739-dark-raiders-renegade-astartes-for-8th/page/8/#findComment-5283129 Share on other sites More sharing options...
