NightHowler Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 In that video he says the strength is 4 in the audio, but in the video he has written the strength is 5. While I’m sure that the written part is wrong and he’s most likely S4, it would be nice if he came out S5. theprophetofwar 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/358259-runic-awakening-speculation/page/32/#findComment-5485956 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karhedron Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Heres hoping Landspeeder has general primaris transport ability (except Gravis)What would you like to see that is not offered by the Impulsor? Impulsors still good too But (potentially) range, speed, toughness, capacity, weapons, deepstrike. Theyre all known unknowns at this stage though Range, Speed and weapons I can potentially see them out-performing the Impulsor (especially weapons as it basically just has small arms). Capacity and toughness seem less likely though as it would start treading on the toes of the Repulsor in that case. But as you say, we will have to wait and see. My hunch though is we will see mobile firepower rather than more transports.

Wolf Guard Dan Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Bye bye Wolf Guard Battle Leaders, your inspiring presence was great while it lasted. Nothing so far about getting into combat faster.

lonewolf81 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Generally the bonuses provided during assault doctrine are strong because it comes to play from turn 3 (scars +1 damage, BA +1attack etc.). It doesnt look unreal... i am with Arentius is that wishlist or you have a source? :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/358259-runic-awakening-speculation/page/32/#findComment-5486248 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Shepherd Posted March 5, 2020 Author Share Posted March 5, 2020 Think thats wishlisting. Rerolling all failed wounds is quite rare without spending command points and that looks O.P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/358259-runic-awakening-speculation/page/32/#findComment-5486294 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Saint Ragnar Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 You can't just come in here making a challenge in our feasting hall then run off when we accept. Where is this "Super Doctrine" coming from? Probably Tzeentch propoganda to make us leave the Aett. I would appreciate if we could get a source that gives us some reason to believe this. I agree with everyone else that right now it seems very wishlisty.

Guest Triszin Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 It would also invalidate all wgbl.

The Saint Ragnar Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 (edited) To be fair, if this is true it is a Turn 3 onward buff. So we would need them for Turns 1-2 as well as any amount of shooting we have. So they would now serve to protect our long fangs or other shooting units from charging instead of being rushed up the board. I don't think it invalidates them but it changed their role in our force. I think it is likely we won't get a +1 attack super as we already have access to so many ways to get extra attacks that would be too broken.

I think it is likely we won't get a +1 attack super as we already have access to so many ways to get extra attacks that would be too broken. Besides +1A has already gone to the Blood Angels. Re-rolling wounds in the first round of melee from T3 onwards seems good but believable. Units that can turn out massed S5+ attacks in melee would become really dangerous, especially when stacked with the AP-1 in the Assault Doctrine. Heck, even basic Troop units become dangerous with rerolls. If there is one thing that holds true in 8th edition, it is that quantity has a quality all of its own. Having said that, without any supporting evidence, I am not buying this rumour just yet.

lonewolf81 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 (edited) So the box rumor with ragnar and phobos marines fits with this lore article ( covered ops to kill the beast) hmmm... I don't think they will be new phobos models though... PS: I really hope they announce preorder this Sunday dropping just a teaser video transmission and then Monday start with the models / boxset if any of saga of the beast and then continue with rule previews the rest of the week... And won't drag this for another week without rules previews... We had enough of lore articles...
