Bryan Blaire Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Just because we likely won't see anything big like the Lion in the Codex doesn't mean he can't be pulled into the story via a Warzone type supplement. I doubt we get any new models at all to go along with the new Codex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Master Raziel Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I've had the thought that when we get an 8th ed dex, there may be different chapter traits and stratagems for the prominent successor chapters. So far, the only dex that hasn't had some separate rules for sub-factions has been Codex: Gray Knights, and they don't really have any sub-factions.

Corswain Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I’d be surprised if they didn’t do a Primaris upgrade sprue but I don’t do Primaris so no problem either way for me. Looking forward to a proper 8th Edition Codex though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJD Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I wonder if we will keep chaplains and librarians on bikes. I hope so they are two of my best conversions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowCore67 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 The only "new" model I'm expecting to see is a kitbashed Primaris Interrogator Chaplain that they mentioned a while back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt_Reaper Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I shall make my obligatory wishlist. Cataphractii/Tartaros TDA rules hunter/stalker Storm Raven Thunderfire Cannon Contemptor Dreadnought If we get any of the above I'll eat my hat...or do some sort of painting thing within an arbitrary time frame.

Chaplain Lucifer Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Great news! The index was nice but nothing like a codex. Hopefully we get some new fluff!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komodo Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I would like to see Belial and Sammael bringing their respective forces to Troops slot once again. If we'll get the synergy level of Deathguard codex I would be super-happy. I would like to have some rules for successors as well. I got a lucky purchase, got almost 30 tactical dudes, so I can say I'm pretty much done with 3rd company after another 5-man assault squad and DI Inceptors will be finished. Really want to see a price drop on termies and bikes and some fluffy, but awesome on a table stratagems. Wishlist favourite -- a stratagem to deploy closer than 9 inches during teleport deployment. Smth like "precision deep strike". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to a proper 8th Edition Codex though. Id like one simply to facilitate a true scale army. It really just needs robed torsos. Everything else is compatible. I would not expect any new models or units at all. But I bet there will be rules for successors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the existence of the Outrider or Vanguard detachments, you essentially get that. You just lose out on some command points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronin_cse Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 So why are you all saying this means no Lion? Just based on the recent codex releases getting no models? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chmur Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 So why are you all saying this means no Lion? Just based on the recent codex releases getting no models? No. Because all other primarchs had huge hype buildup and usually 2 month campaigning before they went into sale. The codex will hit the shelves in month time, if there would be Lion acompanying it, it would most likely already be out there. And the "leaked" contents of the codex are...poorly worded at some crucial points to be really credible. So I will rather expect no Lion and then be surprised, than to ride the hype and be dissappointed - especially since i am actually convinced that the leak is fake.

shabbadoo Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Just because we likely won't see anything big like the Lion in the Codex doesn't mean he can't be pulled into the story via a Warzone type supplement. I doubt we get any new models at all to go along with the new Codex. Likely not. New Ravenwing Bikes/Attack Bikes in the newer Black Knights styling would have me getting three full-sized units though. A new and really nice DA Vets box (the oldish one has ever been sub-par) would be something I would buy 4 boxes of. 40k mini releases have been anemic though, so I have little hope, and I couldn't care less about Primaris anything.

ShadowCore67 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 While I'm sure it won't happen, I'd like to see updated models/molds for Sammael, Azrael, Ezekiel, Belial, vets, bikes, and speeders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 While I'm sure it won't happen, I'd like to see updated models/molds for Sammael, Azrael, Ezekiel, Belial, vets, bikes, and speeders Chances are that classic Marines will not receive model updates. What I want is to see how Primaris fit into the DA structure and faction specific Primaris as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm afraid the new ones will look like Belial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indefragable Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 I’m not a fan of Primaris, so take that disclaimer as you will... ...but it doesn’t make sense to me to have Primaris Inner Circle. Primaris are the new guys on the block, and the Inner Circle is only those who have been around/zealous/proven themselves enough to join the super secret ranks and know the truth about the Fallen. So something like a Primaris Interrogator Chaplain makes 0 sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komodo Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Why even bother with primaris dudes? Models are super nice, but lack of cheap transport, lack of flexibility makes them mediocre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
