Not a Tzaangor in sight!

Sisters one looks like a good addon to the combat patrol/imperium sub sisters. Might need to pick that one up.

Those Tzaangors look weird.

More FOMO from the article "All three Boarding Patrols will go on pre-order soon. Snap them up fast before they sell out!"

actually amazing there aren't any in the box, think GW finally got the message

Well for the umpteenth t.sons box set to come out with the same small pool of rotating units, at least this one has spawn in it. I'll probably pick one up if its cheaper than ordering seperate. Are these boxes been cheaper bundled like this?

That was my thinking as well and if it's at the $130/140 price tag it's a steal considering it's a $220 value.

Very solid Thousand Sons box. Need every one of those units in multiples. Doubling up and buying an exalted sorcerer is almost an ideal army-building decision with zero waste. Excellent work GW, unfortunately I bought all my units piecemeal at retail so have no need for this box.

As much as I appreciate no Tzaangors, there's no HQ choice in the Thousand Sons Patrol?

Isn't that pretty much required? Or is my lack of a TSons Codex showing, because Spawn are a HQ in that codex?

HQs are not required for Boarding action. So it's fine.

HQ is optional in Boarding actions :) 

3 really tempting boxes here again, damn you gw :D

While I previously theorized here that spawn were a likely candidate for the Thousand sons box, its funny that the biggest reason I thought so is not the case XD ( to capitalize on their much more interesting repainted studio spawn, but they use an old one for this picture instead.)

 

@m_r_parker Boarding actions mode has no obligatory HQ (or any) slot. You can make your army without HQs, or do you mean more in a fluffwise way because rubric shouldnt be self-controlling ? in wich case I agree, but I think maybe the leader of each rubric unit is supposed to be a living sorcerer.

Sounds like. They aren’t exactly flying off the shelves around here though so it’s not a super fomo thing for me

I mean, the Space Marine one has disappeared off the GW website. No sign of it anywhere.

 

It’s still available through third party retailers, but *nothing* on GW.

The HQ may get his psychic casting screwed and turned himself into a spawn.
