Beaky Brigade Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 I have about 60 unbuilt and some Sentinels. Not sure if I should sell them once they go oop forever and fund a new project.

allegedlynerdy Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 The tin foil hat part of me wonders if this is a directive from GW to FW, to get people to stop using their Elysian armies as a point of complaint about the beta DS rule...

Danny Cyanide Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 I am sad that this likely means that Elysians will have no more rule updates in the future! They will just be nice looking Imperial guard now.

They will just be nice looking Imperial guard now. I doubt they'll ever drop the rules, and they might get some updates, if any FW stuff ever does (not looking likely). FW has rules for stuff that's been OOP for a long time.

Tyr13 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 They might not drop the rules any time soon, but when the index is due to be replaced, if the rules change significantly again... well, theyll be left behind. :/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346433-elysians-being-dropped/page/2/#findComment-5061726 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Cyanide Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Yup, I figure that they will be gone once the index is gone. After that I guess they will have to be an air-cav Army. Hopefully Krieg are selling good enough to keep going for a while. I'd hate to lose both my Regiments!

Tallarn Commander Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Cheesy, thanks for informing us that the Elysian line. Becausr of your warning I just ordered a squad of 10 Ekysians. However, since I have over 300 painted IG infantry, my 10 Elysians will become a squad of 10 Renegade Marauders. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346433-elysians-being-dropped/page/2/#findComment-5061732 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamika Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Sad to see them discontinued. Even sadder is my bank account. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346433-elysians-being-dropped/page/2/#findComment-5061804 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Krash Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Yes sadly...I mean rules wise, if you have cool opponents they should be cool with you updating/playing with your own custom rules to bring them inline with standard IG because at the end of the day Elysian's are just Guardsmen with Deep Strike their forgeworld index list is very "rules light" anyway. who knows though Forgeworld is only space marines now anyway it's just a matter of time before DkoK suffer the same fate and it will happen 100% guaranteed.

Krash It'll be quite awhile before they drop DKoK... They just made new infantry sculpts and molds for them. Elysians on the other hand had not been updated since release.

Marshal Rohr Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 The Grenadiers are being reworked the way the other parts of the line have been. Other things take priority and the molds had failed. They’ll be back eventually. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346433-elysians-being-dropped/page/2/#findComment-5062116 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noserenda Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 They discontinued a bunch of Krieg squads years ago and they never came back, admittedly they probably didnt need like 4 Infantry squads but its no sign of invulnerability. Unfortunately FW seems to be going through an "old gw" phase so the best we can hope for is shiny new toys. Or not... Their rules writers have been phoning it in recently too Still considering ordering some drop sentinels...EDITAnd some gorgeous snipers... And those awesome mortars...
