Black Templar Teaser and Rumors

[CypherThe1stFallen]

 

a kind gentleman on discord cleaned it up, he had a hood and 2 plasma guns and mysteriously dashed off carrying a broken sword on his back. really weird.

What can I say, except you're welcome.

[Cryptshadow]

As I said on the thread from the main rumor page...

 

Thing is, I want an ancient carrying Helbrecht's banner to come with him, as I can NOT freehand one at the moment to save my life, but would still love to field one somewhere in my Black Templars army...

there is an stl available on cults3d or you can find it on shapeways, red warden minis i think it was. (black templar banner)

A bigger base for an aura providing HQ would be really useful as long as they come in under 10W so you can still hide them (ie please dont be like the Triumph)

Or if it has a rule like the Triumph does now. It has a rule that states, despite having 18 wounds, the Triumph counts as a 9-wound model for the purposes of the Look Out, Sir! rule and terrain traits like Dense Cover and Obscuring.

[Banjulhu]

Oh yeah, I forgot they updated that bit of the rules in the new book.

[Brother Captain Alberic]

Not looking like we are getting any new Templar reveals again today.

[Marshal Reinhard]

We've passed the point where they usually go up? And yes I know there's a munda character up now

[Sword Brother Adelard]

As one of my criminal client's mates once said to me, when I told them the chief prosecution witness hadn't yet arrived: "He ain't coming!"

(I suspect they may have arranged that mind...)

[Trignama]

Wow, are we seriously set for ANOTHER week of silence? This is getting ridiculous. 

[Sword Brethren Durion]

We still got one hour and an half I think.

[Brother Captain Alberic]

When’s the latest they post them. Don’t they usually do all the reveals around the same time.

[SirJyo]

Maybe we will get smacked with a mid-week reveal.

[Marshal Reinhard]

The cynic in me is wondering how reliable the rumor that the launch box will be coming this month, is. 

 

Official word is Templars in november. A rumor, but nothing beyond that, said the box would be September, alone, right?

[Brother Captain Alberic]

Is it not possible the AoS delay somehow delayed the Templar launch box in turn.

[Marshal Reinhard]

there is no official word on when the launch box is, so officially it wouldn't even be a 'delay' if that were the case

[Gederas]

GW is also now notorious for "[x] releasing in [MONTH]" actually meaning "it's being available for pre-order the last week of the month".

 

So even if the rumour of the launch box being September is true, GW could (and very likely might/would) have it be available for pre-order on the 25th. IE: September

[tvih]

Given my budget problems right now I wouldn't mind if the box only came in November, it'd make things easier for me... but then I wouldn't want to deprive others of an earlier launch

[Sete]

Ahh man, no reveal today.

Need my lunch box.

[Eberious]

Disappointed, that's a whole week we have to wait for again.... gah!, maybe GW are doing it on purpose, building the hype, then hush up and not preview anything for weeks and watch us slowly lose our minds waiting. They will fail, it's been 16 years. 

 

Is not the end of the world I suppose, back to painting it seems. 

[SWORD BROTHER RYAN]

Just Read through the WHC latest BT article. It was fun to see them explain the BT zeal for the masses, but the only thing I got out of it was the supplement "is coming soon". No word on new models beyond what we've already seen, or any hint at a date. Glad I kept my excitement tempered by lessons of the past. The wait continues.

[JAG Templar]

Haha, we definitely need some kind of teaser, leak or rules rumour, if only as a distraction away from the ‘are leaks appropriate’ discussion!

 

In all seriousness, I’d hoped to see a bit more too but any release delays give us all more time to reduce our pile of shame and hone our understanding of 9th edition (at least in my case).

I’m relying on the fact that Redemptors, Outriders, BGV and Chaplain on a bike will still be viable once the supplement drops. I think they are mostly safe bets unless Sword Brethren are significantly better than BGV.

[redmapa]

BGV are stupid cheap, 105pts for 9W with 2+/4++ and a power sword and you can just put them in an objective. If Sword Brethren are better than BGV will still probably a cheap and durable unit to place in your objectives or chase off units or just be a nuisance and Sword Brethren can be the new hotness to put on Impulsors or whatever they are good at.

[Medjugorje]

Maybe both will be in lists. Think about If one Vow would make all units Obsec. Then SB will take the offense and 18 BGV will stay on our own markers.
