Inquisitor_Lensoven Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 I’m tired of random rumors. We have rumor mongers who have proven reliable, but none of these rumors have come from any of those sources so I’m not holding my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave to Darkness Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 Wasnt the weapon types for the new heavy ordinance squad rumored at some point? Im sure someone mentioned some kind of heavier autocannon, I may have imagined that though. Emperor Ming 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That post has been proven reliable. the others all just random people posting online who have no foundation of trust.

MrKoolPants Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 I would love if the heavy ordnance unit was a new, non-FW version of an artillery piece. Self-propelled guns are cool and all, but an arty battery feels very thematic of IG to me. Inquisitor_Lensoven 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montford Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I've been wondering if the Imperial Guard soldiers are going to be on 28mm bases: the Sisters Repentia (humans not in armor) are on 28s, so I am wondering if the same will be done to the IG.

Emperor Ming Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 The Kasarkin are defiantly on bigger bases As to the new cadian troopers, its hard to see on the pictures Ursula creed is on a 40 or 50mm, hard to see from the pics, but prob a 40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave to Darkness Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I hope they dont have the average meatbags on bigger bases, I still need to put most of my marines on the bigger ones, I really dont want to do it to all my Guard as well.

duz_ Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 After spending a small fortune on nice 25mm resin bases of they go to 28s I won't be rebasing mine... I don't see how 1.5mm radius increase will impact the game. Besides if someone can actually eyeball that difference in a game I'll eat my cap Will be interesting to see whats announced this weekend. I've learnt to temper my expectations for anything IG related this edition Emperor Ming and Slave to Darkness 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get something good then thats a bonus, if we dont then at least I have a fully painted army. Im having fun building the army and vibing with you guys, so I win regardless of GW dropping the ball or not.

domsto Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 After all and with 10.Ed right around the Corner i have to say, i wish for no 9.Ed Codex anymore. Best case would be that we get a Codex that is strong for maybe a few months before 10.Ed dropps and resets everything. Worse case: if 10.Ed doesn't reset everything. We get a 9.Ed Codex with "10.Ed in Mind" so we have to struggle throw 10.Ed as well with an outdated Codex. And won't get a propper 10.Ed Codex anytime soon. so or so i think Guard is in for a rought Time Emperor Ming 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duz_ Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 This seems to be a valid concern. It wouldn't be the first time it happened to IG. Ref: Imperial Guard Codex "7th" edition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldWherewolf Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Well, GW announced "The Old World" (reboot of WHFB) back in 2019, and that hasn't been released yet. My Local GW store manager (take this with a LARGE grain of salt) expects the release to be in 2023. If that is true, then we can expect a full year before 40K gets rebooted. With the focus on at least somewhat balancing factions in 40k, GW can have a 4-year release cycle: 40K, 30K, AoS, and TOW. I like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Ming Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Yeah, I would prefer not to have a 9th codex at this point I'd rather wait longer and not have an out-of-date codex...again The Pounder 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pounder Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Couldn’t agree more. I’ve been waiting for the new codex for so long I’d wait for perfect timing rather than have a book with a smaller lifespan. Guess we’ll find out more tomorrow.

Montford Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Looks like the live stream answered my question: regular troops will remains on 25mm bases and the Command Squad will be on 28.5mm bases. Emperor Ming 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrowmaster Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Infantry squads also don't lose heavy weapons (which is nice), instead the one that can take 2 specials seems to be a different unit. I also got the impression that cadian units will be separate from regular ones (there was a lot of emphasis on cadian infantry and heavy weapons squads).

Yet they seem to come from the same box now lol. which I find interesting considering the other rumors about veterans/SWSes, which don’t have boxes of their own.

Inquisitor_Lensoven Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Now I’m hoping the FOBs can fit inside transports. Unlikely unless it’s a super heavy transport of some sort Emperor Ming 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
