Sete Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Any reason why those rumours were removed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excelite Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 The guy who posted them initially had them removed. They also covered some 2022 stuff, I guess the source was not happy about it… but that’s my take, this wasn’t mentioned specifically… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Jenkins Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 The hype is getting to me. Been waiting a long, long time for this. I saved a copy of a potential release breakdown that someone posted on Facebook, and I'm optimistic, even if it seems grandiose. My wishlist is short, so hoping the low bar can help temper my expectations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Loss Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 (edited) Love me some rumours/leaks. The rumoured launch box sounds great - meaty enough to be a solid start for me. The rumoured box in question, retyped, in case people missed it: CodexCardsCrusader squad (6 Initiates and 4 Neophytes)Emperor's ChampionSeneschalRedemptor Apparently dropping in September, with the main release in Nov as per the roadmap. Wonder whether there's any point in holding on to my Indomitus marines, or whether I should sell (some of) them in anticipation of this. Decisions, decisions...

Brother Talarian Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Love me some rumours/leaks. The rumoured launch box sounds great - meaty enough to be a solid start for me. The rumoured box in question, retyped, in case people missed it: Codex Cards Crusader squad (6 Initiates and 4 Neophytes) Emperor's Champion Seneschal Redemptor Apparently dropping in September, with the main release in Nov as per the roadmap. Wonder whether there's any point in holding on to my Indomitus marines, or whether I should sell (some of) them in anticipation of this. Decisions, decisions... Thank mate. Wonder what Senechal is supposed to be? Marshall, Ancient? Seems like a dope starting kit. I wouldn’t mind if the redemptor gets swapped out for SB :p Looking forward to what we get!

redmapa Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Redemptor? I thought Dosjetka's post said it was an Impulsor which made more sense to me since we apparently are getting a multi melta to put on vehicles, now the "Seneschal" part might be a translation error or a hint that its all made up rumors, Im not sure what to think of it because it is a rank in the 30k Imperial Fists legion and its essentially the same rank as Castellan, that is a marine in charge of a fortress raised by the Imperial Fists and has to take charge of its defence and recruitment for the legion. Is Seneschal a new rank? Or is it made up by someone who knows the lore? To me both are quite plausible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Reinhard Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Marshal, it was a translation from French, I think Dosjetka and Sarvis 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradeh Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Based on what was posted I can't tell if the SB has it's own kit that makes a Castellan or it's also part of the Crusader kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOneTrueZon Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 If that's the case I'm SO glad I held off buying one for all this time. I'm red with envy over the Redemptor conversions by brother Eberious and St.Lazarus. Now all I have to do is clear my backlog by November. I sensw a Knightfall coming soon.

Tyrannicide Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 The way that was written earlier, it seemed like the rumored Sword Brethren will only have enough parts to upgrade one initiate per crusader squad. I hope that’s not the case, or if it is then hopefully we get an upgrade sprue with some components to make a proper Sword Brethren unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that’s not the case, or if it is then hopefully we get an upgrade sprue with some components to make a proper Sword Brethren unit. That's how I read it but then the Castellan part through me off. That would be a little odd to have that option too. I think there is a seperate SB kit.

Marshal Loss Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 The exact wording says that 1) the Crusader squad contains options to make a SB unit leader, and 2) implies/states that there is a dedicated SB kit: The Crusader kit will have options for a Sword Brother unit leader with cape, and there's a 15" AP-1 flamer. (...) The Sword Brother kit will have plenty of CC options and the option to make a Marshal (like with the Custodes Warden kit that gives you the option of making a Captain).

The Redemptor kit is absolutely brilliant. It's actually my favourite Dread now, and it makes all other variants look a bit puny by comparison. You're in for a treat.

Bradeh Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 It's shocking how big the release is, no other chapter comes close, even the poster boys UM or BA. BT back on top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also covered some 2022 stuff, I guess the source was not happy about it… but that’s my take, this wasn’t mentioned specifically… Which is why I don't leak. People get all excited and drop things they aren't supposed to. Hell, I saw something on Facebook today calling out a source and themselves saying they would leak stuff once they got their hands on the codex because they were a contracted painting service to someone who gets preview codices. That's ridiculous. Don't be that guy/gal. Trignama, Sword Brother Adelard, Schlitzaf and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medjugorje Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 now we were back as one of the big 6 ( UM + BA + SW + DA + DW + BT ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradeh Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 One of my gripes with the other chapters is that there is a big disconnect between the Primaris and Firstborn models, especially with BA, DA and SW. This BT release fixes all of that. Hopefully they do the same for the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfTheLion Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 (edited) It was definitely a Redemptor mentioned, not an impulsor. It's shocking how big the release is, no other chapter comes close, even the poster boys UM or BA. BT back on top. I think this is probably the template going forward and the others will end up getting an equivalent release, hopefully starting with Blood Angels, as Dante's model is way too old and he's the Lord of the Imperium Nihilus. Azrael and Ezekiel are also 2E models, but don't hold that high of a position.As far as size goes, recent Age of Sigmar releases end up having like ~5 plastic character models for factions, like the recent Lumineth release. So I think that's going to be a thing we'll see more often in 40k. Edited August 13, 2021 by WrathOfTheLion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sete Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 The box is coming september right? If I read correctly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfTheLion Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 That's what was said, and I think makes sense. They're already talking about it, so it's probably soon after whenever the next Stormcast/AoS release drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinsanity Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 The box is coming september right? If I read correctly?That sounded like conjecture, but would make sense. The Beast Snaggas box came out 2 months before the new codex, so assuming the same release pattern for BTs, any box would be released in September...
