Acebaur Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Yeah, he means that like BGV would get keyword SWORD BRETHREN, so they would benefit from any strats or abilities that Sword bros would get noobsawce and BLACK BLΠFLY 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364086-the-big-9th-edition-room/page/79/#findComment-5719566 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trignama Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Maybe I misread the post. If they were listing wolf guard and inner circle as a examples of special keywords given to veterans and saying we should get the same treatment with sword brethren, then yes, that makes perfect sense. The way I read it is that they wanted to give space wolves and dark angels access to our stratas via a sword brethren keyword for wolf guard and inner circle units Definitely not what they wrote. They suggested black templars get the same treatment as DA and SW Yeah, I clearly thought he meant the same, giving away our stratas to their units. That def could've been worded better lol Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364086-the-big-9th-edition-room/page/79/#findComment-5719575 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mmmmm Napalm Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 I believe it's been said above that sword brethren get combi weapons - a big deal for primaris as none have had them so far. Presumably they'll have some good melee weapon options too. They essentially sound like significantly better veteran intercessors honestly. Wouldn't be surprised if they dont have shield options (so that bladeguard retain a purpose) Crusader squads I'd guess will be able to mix and match gear in the same way death company intercessors can, but wont be able to use the intercessor strats probably. Presumably they'll have some melee upgrade options too. Interesting... Think the point is, perhaps you’ll have a unique unit AND all other vets might get a keyword and then if you have some sword brethren strata, any vet could use it. Makes sense to me tbh. Ultimately better than just a unit to get a unit and some stuff to make the others better lol. Yeah I think this is the best way to go about it. It would be silly if Bladeguard, for instance, didn't have the Sword Brethren keyword.

SirJyo Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Combi weapons sound cool for vets. Might be primaris infantry's only form of regular melta rifles that isn't in gravis.

Marshal Reinhard Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 I'v gotten the BA, SW, Sallies and raven guard primaris upgrades, just to use as bits. (And there was a time when the ba and sw upgrades were literally the only available primaris chainswords out there.) My point being of course that at least to some a bt upgrade sprue(s) will be welcomed even if they don't play bt, simply on account it meaning more bits. And some will whine, and I'm not sure I'll be unable to rub it in their faces, but we all try our best Blindhamster and Trignama 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364086-the-big-9th-edition-room/page/79/#findComment-5720183 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trignama Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 (edited) So with this week nearing an end GW community has pretty much fleshed out their articles in regards to the Ork release, and since that is on pre order in a few days, we should start seeing an advancement in the advertisement cycle. So for GK, I saw GW released a new Crowe model, was that all that was expected for them? I know they were predicted in the release line up, I believe next was Tsons, and unless I've missed it I haven't heard anything for them yet. So, presuming they are next up, I'd expect to start seeing/hearing something about Tsons week after next? I'm hoping it is around this time frame we start getting some leaks for the Templar's.

Blindhamster Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Wait until we get a combi melta on our upgrade sprue and the option gets added to every intercessor sergeant... this is actually an interesting point. If BT get an upgrade sprue as well as a crusader kit, there is a small chance of weapon options being added to existing units too - which might well lead to the same as we have seen before, everyone else getting the same option. HOWEVER, I don't think it's likely. I think we'll see BT be the first to get truly unique units with unique options. (excluding a couple of lieutenant options only available to wolves/DA which is still dumb). Its a good time to wear black ceramite and swing proper swords around I'd think. p.s. I cant wait to steal all sorts of cool bits, have done it with every other chapter upgrade, BTs will be no different :D Trignama and Mmmmm Napalm 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364086-the-big-9th-edition-room/page/79/#findComment-5720226 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marius_Aurilius Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 I really doubt we are going to get any combi-weapons at all. I am sure Helbrecht will get his because he is a character. With the way GW has been doing their new concept with each unit has 'one type of weapon' I doubt they will give us anything like the old marines.Unless the new squads come out with just combi-weapons. I could see a whole squad running combi bolt rifles maybe?

redmapa Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 I actually do like and believe this rumor of Sword Brethren having Combi-weapons because it gives them a niche and a visual identity unique to them at the moment, in my opinion if they were just Bladeguard without shields then they would kind of suck and giving them power weapons plus shields makes them redundant when Bladeguard exits, of course they could just be Bladeguard kit plus BT upgrade sprue but I personally prefer the idea of a squad with combi-weapons and power weapons because that feels like a veteran unit.
