twopounder Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Spikey bits just "updated" the previous rumor to say that The Lion will not be included, but it will be DA and primaris lieutenanthttps://spikeybits.com/2019/04/rumors-primarch-lion-eljonson-a-new-40k-starter-set.htmlPersonally, I could see da vs fallen ONLY if1) they released new fallen models2) they have new da primarisWithout both of these, it's just a massive DA army box for no discernable reason.

jbaeza94 Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 if we get deathwing and/or ravenwing ill be happy.the biggest problem is the imperial/pseudo impirial force that will be the enemy. i dont like the fallen being our only plot driving point. i also dont like the idea of us turtning traitor or doing things that makes people go "aha! see! DA are traitors". Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355539-updated-da-starter-box-rumors/#findComment-5302450 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Sheol Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 It's BOLS so it's fake. Period. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355539-updated-da-starter-box-rumors/#findComment-5302473 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneakybamsen Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 It's BOLS so it's fake. Period. Â Well, sometimes they do get something right. I had no doubt that the Lion would not be in the box when I saw the initial article. That wouldn't make any sense. If we might see him later is another matter. Â If the opposition would actually be fallen, would be interesting. At least they would have to expand Fallen options to make it a viable force, which would mean we over time would see more fallen players, meaning our deathwing rules would start having just a hint of merit. Â I am looking forward to seeing what will be inside the box, but a primaris lieutenant would be pointless (we have one already). BolS claim an interrogator chaplain in some primaris version would make sense, and that I can follow. One could hope for RW and DW primaris, but I remain sceptical with regards to that. Maybe because I am currently doing quite a bit of painting on RW, and I don't want that work to be "wasted".

Lostrael Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 The Dark Angel Veteran/Fallen box is gone from the shop... at least I cannot find it anymore. Perhaps we get a new set.  edit: Wishful thinking... the old box is still in the chaos section. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355539-updated-da-starter-box-rumors/#findComment-5302531 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryan Blaire Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 If they keep saying it enough, eventually something will come out that's close enough that someone will say "See, it was a little right." Â Not sure why it keeps getting repeated outside BoLS though.

JJD Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 If this is in any way true then it will likely be a DA character and some generic primaris possibly Ravenwing related. Â If there is any truth to this at all then the more robed bodies the better.

BlackTriton Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 I expect it's gonn be a DA box the same way Tooth and claw was a SW box.

They look better than a lot of the newer special characters and they're the best of the 2nd/3rd edition models. Could go with a new Belial though. He still looks like he's gotta pee something fierce.

Skorp Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 My impression is that we're middle of the road. Ravenwing from vigilus has done alright I thought. Â I do agree about hope though. I have hope but it wont increase beyond the standard level until I see something bordering on evidence.

Chaplain Raeven Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Weird that they mention that the other faction could be derived from the imperial aquila. What are the chances that it's a DA versus Emperor's Children? Those mad lads still wear the aquilas.
