Frater Cornelius Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I may be late to the party, but somehow the entire Farsight Enclave has gone missing, despite GW stating they wrote up rules for every model, even if it did not exist in just me (like Bike Characters). Did I miss something? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/339375-what-happened-to-the-eight/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Well models specifically for the 8 never existed. Thinks like Bike chaplains did. So there is your answer :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/339375-what-happened-to-the-eight/#findComment-4886178 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 You can pretty much build your own The Eight with the existing rules. They don't really have any special rules except for a few. Just wait till the Codex gets released, maybe GW will surprise us and do a seperate Farsight Enclave Codex (I doubt it tho).

Waking Dreamer Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 The Eight have various Tau relics like Fusion Blades and the Onegar Gauntlet, without the codex you don't know what they do (no rules) or how much they would cost specifically on the Eight. This being 8E though, hopefully GW will make The Eight not only awesomely fluffy but competitive (somewhat). Not necessarily Commanders/Coldstar spam...but thematically/lore- wise that's how effective they are. Eight legendary heroes making a stand!

Aothaine Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I think The Eight will be mentioned but not have rules unless a Farsight Conclave Codex is released. So far it seems like GW is trying to streamline as much as possible and I don't think there is another type of unit that would set as an example like this from other codexes except maybe the last chancers or the DW squad which I'm not sure if the last chancers are even in the new IG dex and I don't recall seeing that DW squad in the index.

Trevak Dal Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 I imagine Enclaves will be a "Chapter" equilivent (...Sept isn't really right) much like how Iyanden is a craftworld in the Eldar book.

Panzer Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Yeah for sure. FSE are not nearly different enough to give them their own Codex and there's no way GW will just leave them out.

Lord_Caerolion Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 The only way I can really see anything being done for the Eight, and this is a massive long-shot, is if they do a Tau/Tyranids campaign featuring the Farsight Enclaves, and do a "campaign box" with the Eight getting models and rules in that. Other than that, it'll just be "take a Commander with the specific Relic if they have one".
