Medjugorje Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Today and tomorrow warhammer fest takes place in Düsseldorf. A group of friends are there and one of them was talking with a game designer. He said he was very impressed. He said that GW knows that Space Marines are weak at the moment ( like Chaos Space Marines and Grey Knights) and they are sorry that there are no buffs in the september faq - just the top-OP-things get cuttings but there are huge changes coming in chapter approved. Named stratagems and ... beside that ... later i will load up photos... there are 2 diorama with BT ( one is very special to me).

Dark_Jober Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Well... that is little bit disappointing I was waiting for some words about BT. But well, Chapter Approved 2018 could be a good point for correcting many issues. Maybe giving a little bit of love to all chapters Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/349677-interesting-news-from-warhammer-fest/#findComment-5148127 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Idaho Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 When is Chapter Approved due again? I wonder what extras Marines will get? It's an interesting tid bit.

Dark_Jober Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 When is Chapter Approved due again? I wonder what extras Marines will get? It's an interesting tid bit. I suppose it will be released in December. I think CA2017 was released in Dec. Well. It is really easy to release some Stratagems, Relics and minor adjustments for each Chapter... Maybe "Replace X with Y" or X+Y Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/349677-interesting-news-from-warhammer-fest/#findComment-5148315 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Medjugorje Posted August 19, 2018 Author Share Posted August 19, 2018 I think they do playtesting a bit. Because Vanilla SM are the biggest and most important codex to GW.

redmapa Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 I think they do playtesting a bit. Because Vanilla SM are the biggest and most important codex to GW. That doesnt mean we might get something good, Iron Hands are in the same codex and they barely get anything worthwhile and dont forget Angels of Death, the supplement for our codex where there was nothing for us except a single page of fluff. This codex being the posterboys of the game has meant nothing for BT in the past 6 years. Whatever playtesting they do has never equaled to us getting anything either as we have been in the same spot since 6th ed, an army that stands out like a sore thumb and whose style has never been supported by the codex or supplements.

Medjugorje Posted August 20, 2018 Author Share Posted August 20, 2018 I want a own codex and get uniqe but at first i want to play them the templar way ( melee and short range)- thats at least partially possible with point changes and rule changes and new stratagems Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/349677-interesting-news-from-warhammer-fest/#findComment-5148811 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOneTrueZon Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Poster boys cant be one of the worst Tiers... of course Soups and UM rules+Guilliman help a ton, but other Chapters are terrible hurt without them Poster boys often suck horribly despite their best efforts and loaded rosters.

Tokugawa Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Poster boys cant be one of the worst Tiers... of course Soups and UM rules+Guilliman help a ton, but other Chapters are terrible hurt without them Poster boys often suck horribly despite their best efforts and loaded rosters. For example: http://i.cdn.turner.com/nba/nba/.element/img/1.0/teamsites/logos/teamlogos_500x500/lal.png LAL still sold tons of tickets when they were tanking. Many marine models were also sold with a weak codex. So this may not be a serious problem to GW...

Hephast0 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Cheers for posting the pics. I still have some hope that we will see some love sooner or later :) I wonder if the stratagem changes might introduce a 1cp "embarked units may disembark from this Land Raider Crusader after it has moved this turn" Can only dream.
