Markov Gheist Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Is there any info on the Forgefiend/Maulerfiend? I've just gotten my hands on that kit, but I'm unsure what to build it into. Warpsmith giving DEs +1 to shooting seems like a good argument for the Forgefiend...

Dr_Ruminahui Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 From what we know, it seems like they will be the same as in the Thousand Suns codex, which I think is the same as they are now except with BS/WS 3+. As for what will synergy with them, we don't have a really good idea yet, other than the forgefiend is better paired with a Warpsmith while the maulerfiend is better with a Lord Discordant. Really, which is better will likely come down to synergies with other units, what your list is doing and point costs. At the moment we don't really have an answer for any of those.

Kaiju Soze Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 For Maulerfiends they go up to BS/WS 3+, strength 7. Mauler fists go up to Damage d3+3, tendrils go down to damage 1, cutters become assault weapons. (iirc).

Markov Gheist Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Awesome, I just added a Lord Discordant to my order as well. About time I get my hands on this gentleman. With the improved Demon engines, I might use this occation to finally commit to building an Iron Warriors force...

Prot Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Awesome, I just added a Lord Discordant to my order as well. About time I get my hands on this gentleman. With the improved Demon engines, I might use this occation to finally commit to building an Iron Warriors force... That’s what I’m thinking as well. I think the new rules make Iron Warrior shooting actually appealing if you go old school and just spade a strong assault compliment. In the old days it was Berzerkers ( Kroeger) but a juicy squad of new possessed and a compliment of cultists to throw at the walls and you have a pretty nice looking army that has a lot of variety and painting potential. At least that’s how I’m looking at it. I also love the new Warpsmith and that existing Discordant is a great fit.

Mikoneo Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) The combat patrol is officially announced and matches with Chris' rumours Edited May 9, 2022 by Mikoneo Khornestar 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/371366-what-to-expect-from-9e-csm/page/102/#findComment-5825698 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanguinaryGuardsman Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 The combat patrol is officially announced and matches with Chris' rumours Not quite. Todays preview doesn't say that the new CSM upgrade sprue will be included in the patrol. There is no mention of it nor is it depicted. GW would be a fine form if this new patrol was the 2019 CSM kit with the upgrade sprue remaining locked behind a stupid KT paywall.

Sception Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 worth noting: the combat patrol seemingly does not include the additional accessory sprue from the Nachmund Kill Team box - ie no big axe, no squad psyker, no chaincannon, no daemon sword for the champion. Or at least, if it does include that sprue, none of the bits from it appear on any of the legionaries pictured.

Cpt.Danjou Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 102 pages is a bit much to read through, so sorry if this has been asked before. Any words if the cultists will be ObSec, as a Dg player I never use them because of that they are not ObSec. stayduned 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/371366-what-to-expect-from-9e-csm/page/102/#findComment-5825715 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any words if the cultists will be ObSec, as a Dg player I never use them because of that they are not ObSec. No word on that but I would assume they are not obsec by default. Im sure AL, IW, and maybe even BL will have some stratagem support for them.

Clone Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 I'm just catching up on all these rumours. Unfortunately I had to sell off my chaos army a few years ago when we had our third baby but with all these new releases coming up it feels like the perfect time to rebuild my warband.

Khornestar Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 The unit is called Legionaries, so it doesn’t necessarily mean Clockworkchris’s info was inaccurate. That aside, would have been incentive to buy it. Still, solid start to an army in this box. Thumbs up for sure.

If Thousand Sons can freely mix in a few Tzeentch daemons in the future, I might actually have to start a Sons army in black legion colors.
