Marshal Laeroth Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 What are the BT rumours? Is it from the guy saying it’s Guard + Nids in December? Wasn’t it “confirmed” that it was Custodes + GSC? No, that was the speculation though.

Freypal Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Nids and IG would appear to make more sense given the Octarius stuff...

jaxom Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 GSC and Custodes could be a follow up on the hints (maybe even explicit, I don't remember) that GSCs made it onto Terra.

redmapa Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 GSC and Custodes could be a follow up on the hints (maybe even explicit, I don't remember) that GSCs made it onto Terra. Yeah this is what I expect, when the idea of Warzones was teased years ago one of the planets shown was Terra so the idea of Warzone: Terra is something I have been expecting for quite some time and they have teased it a bit with the inclusion of GSC on Terra and the demonic assault of Terra so I think there's quite the potential for some sort of secret wars in the depths of Terra, GSC, Custodes, Heretics all vying for power in the undergrounds of Terra is something that sounds very cool to me so I hope it pans out.

Gederas Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Well, I ordered 4 sets of the current upgrade sprues today at my local GW.

Brother Christopher Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 I don't think that buying more than ore or two boxes of the old upgrade sprues is worth it. It's still probably great value for money, but from what I saw with other people's works, the tabards are a bit too short for Primaris marines and the design of the chains didn't age well. While you know that I'm not a huge fan of Primaris marines and, therefore, SM releases, I am sure that the new upgrade kit or Crusader/Sword Brethren sprues will enough of lovely, modern-looking details to never look back on the old one (as much as it pains me to say this).

Khornestar Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Primaris upgrades will probably look better by far (as with primaris in general IMO), but such things are subjective. At least in this situation people have a heads up if they want it, as we know it’ll be OOP soon enough.

Eberious Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Possibly due to the push towards Primaris the firstborn kits may stop. Especially with the BT upgrade set, I don't think it would be viable to GW to have two upgrades for BT's on the go at once, and since they want Primaris they'll likely drop the firstborn upgrade. It is what I'm expecting. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/370962-black-templar-teaser-and-rumors/page/35/#findComment-5732557 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Reinhard Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Heads and shoulder pads of the old sprue, frankly don't cut it anymore. The crosses are way too large and clumsy, the helmets don't manage to do symmetrical eyes slits, edges are soft etc. I've gotten over a 100 deathwatch black templar pads. Boring because the design is always the same, but the increase in quality is unmistakable. Seeing the pads on the new EC, simple they may be, I'm superstoked over what else may come Khornestar 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/370962-black-templar-teaser-and-rumors/page/35/#findComment-5732562 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword Brother Adelard Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 I too am done with those components now. There's more work in making them useable than is worth the effort now, and I dislike how much plastic just gets thrown away. I'm ready for something new.

Marshal Reinhard Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Some of those still have a use, but mostly because there's no alternative. Yet. Still have decent chunk of that left.

Sword Brother Adelard Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 So this Redemptor rumour. I'm building one right now and I've noticed something...The Redemptor is three sprues. The third contains just weapons and the sarcophagi cover. What if that was forwardly planned so that Chapter Specific Redemptors could be produced later, with a new third sprue with different weapons and sarcophagi? In the same way that AT Titans all have separate weapon sprues and multiple builds?
