Lord Marshal Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 (edited)   Like expecting a char and a sprue is overhyping? Allow me to disagree. That is the bare minimum one would expect, receiving the same treatment as the other CSM chapters, dont you agree? Ultramarines getting focus on Vigilus didn't stop them getting those later now did it? Hell, Sisters are meant to be getting a big showing in PA2 and we know they're due more, separate models at a later date. Lore books =/= Dedicated faction supplement Games Workshop probably just hope Black Templar players will splash out for PA2 in the same way they did for Blood Angels/Crimson Fists in White Dwarf despite supplements/updates coming barely months later for them.

Ishagu Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 We haven't seen the end of psychic awakening. I'm reserving judgement until we've seen the complete works and all releases associated.

Felix Antipodes Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I'm looking at the PA series of books as separate chapters of one book. Chapter one? Fail for me. A bunch of things happen wrt various Aeldari factions, in no particular order, in no specific time frame. It really showed the weakness inherent in downplaying any sort of overarching chronology for the setting (something I was initially okay with). Will I still be picking up the remaining books? Of course; only first chapter as stated. Plenty of time to "save the book". Sadly though, it seems the best fluff is coming from BL and not GW.

Marshal Reinhard Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 (edited) Ultramarines getting focus on Vigilus didn't stop them getting those later now did it? When has anything ever stopped ultramarines getting anything? Speculation: Draco is the BT character in PA2, he fights the Word Bearers who tells him the Imperial Faith is based on the teachings of Lorgar. He brings it up later to some inquisitor, and is excommunicated for it. It would fit with the mention from the IF supplement. His deeds "too horrible to even name" is probably something really mundane to an outside viewer, but tantamount to questioning the Imperial Faith, in universe.

Dark Shepherd Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 How quickly did previous boxes sell out for a comparison with Blood of the Phoenix? Seems to be plenty available everywhere, know its still early on We might get to see saner prices for the next one which would help the hype train get back on track to funtown Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/357547-pyschic-awakening-speculation/page/33/#findComment-5416893 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Reinhard Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Isn't only pa4 rumored to get a box still? Pa2 for sure isn't getting one, and I think neither is pa3?

Dark Shepherd Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Yeah Orks v Wolves for PA4 the only other significantly rumoured boxset Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/357547-pyschic-awakening-speculation/page/33/#findComment-5416925 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sete Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Rumour is nids not getting anything and BA mephiston, book 4 ghaz vs Ragnar. I see your point Marshal, but I am yet to see a reason to splash some money on PA2. Reinhard brings up a good point. Could be Draco on PA2. That would explain why he suddenly appeared out of nowhere on Tor Garodon bio. Which means hes gonna purge a lot of people.

DeadFingers Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Did Kikasstou say anything about PA4 getting a box? I only remember seeing "Wolves Vs. Orks" and "Ragnar Vs. Ghaz", but nothing about a Phoenix-style box. I've kinda lost track of which things we've heard come from him or not.

Marshal Reinhard Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I don't think he's ever stated anyone would be getting a box. He's not yet denied the SW vs Orks box.

HandsWithLegs Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 The lack of rumors for DA stuff is starting to make me a little worried that they are just going to get crammed into another book. We really need rules updates more than just about any other marine army (or faction in general) but I'm worried they are just going to get very minor tweaks and nothing else Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/357547-pyschic-awakening-speculation/page/33/#findComment-5417064 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're using PA to make Mephiston and Ragnar cross the Rubicon, it wouldn't surprise me to see Azrael or some other DA character get the same treatment.

Boytoy Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 If DAngels are coming out close to last, then I think we'll be seeing the lion rather than Russ as the expected primarch release for PA.

Because why not at this point? Anything seems possible these days. Go back in time 5-10+ years and tell people that Eldar would resurrect RG and you would be labeled a crackpot, or we would get Space Marine SPACE MARINES, because a primarch knows better than the Emperor with new advanced tech from an actual Ad Mech SCIENTIST who INVENTS, tech nothing like it since the crusade/ Age of Strife pinnacle tech.

DeadFingers Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Ah, I thought you meant Valdor's disappearance was linked to a Primarch somehow, and him coming back would be the telltale sign that a Primarch is reappearing soon. If it's just about bringing back absent characters, I say they bring back Erebus and Kor Phaeron as heralds of Lorgar. :D MegaVolt87 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/357547-pyschic-awakening-speculation/page/33/#findComment-5417375 Share on other sites More sharing options...
