WH40k game Indomitus Terminators

[Nephaston]

Be still my beating heart. Perfection.

[Guest Triszin]

Def seem like easy to build.

[Dark Shepherd]

As the teleport locator has a model...anyone else expect that that has significant rules implications?

 

Eg that has to be 9' away from enemies but the squad can land within 3' of the beacon?

[Burni]

Love 'em, they'll be the first thing I build from the new 10th ed box.

 

I am going to buy so many of the MPK version of these!

Important thing, the right shoulderpad (look to the screen above) looks like separated from the arm.

 

Maybe not, see how the underside stretches all the way to the arm. Looks like the arms are all one piece.

There's a teleport homer in the existing tactical termie kit - it's used as a token to remind you whether the unit has used their emergency teleport yet or not.

Really clean.

Am too used to Wolf Guard

[Fire Golem]

Excellent. Glad it’s 5 and glad they quickly ended that debate!

[Kallas]

Really glad it's a proper 5-man squad, and they look fantastic, even if they are the ETB models. Can't wait to see the full multipart kit!

It is this pattern that forms the basis for the new Terminators, now substantially filled out to match the scale, and the increased detail, of modern Space Marines.

It's an interesting turn of phrase in the article (and said in the video), and one that seems to mirror what some people have said about the studio not seeing a divide between Firstborn and Primaris. Might just be being polite to avoid stirring stuff up, but it might also lend a little more credence to the rumours of the keywords being removed to just make them all Space Marines with no real distinction.

[Lysimachus]

I love them, really, really happy to see 5.

 

Tiny, tiny, niggle: bit disappointed that all the chest badges and honours are largely identical. Veterans could have more individuality in their decoration. But who knows what extra bits will be on the sprues, and it shouldn't be too hard to convert bits up.

 

Overall, delighted with them.

it might also be in reference to the new MKVI for HH since they are a little bigger too. These guys for the starter set might not be intended for HH but the eventual MPK may be.

BA Assault Terminators kit has one too. Nothing new about it being included.

I’m convinced anyone who thought there was a possibility they weren’t going to be a unit of 5, doesn’t live in reality.

The left is clearly one piece, the right I hope not

Do HH Terminators have the Crux? I thought that was a post-Heresy thing as a way to honour the Emperor?

Eh, it was based on some reasonable logic from the assumption that the trailer contains all of the units in the upcoming starter box. It's got some fair logical steps, and units of 3 exist as current (eg, Aggressor) and older (eg, Centurion) units. It's not too much of a stretch to conclude that they might have been in squads of 3-6, despite the existing precedent.

[ZeroWolf]

These are glorious, so happy these will be included with the 10th box. I'm guessing the cyclone Launcher will be part of the stand alone box since it was name dropped.

haha, I must admit I may have got my left and right mixed up there.

I'm pretty sure it's a post-Heresy thing. But in future we may see the multi-part kit for these guys come with a blank shoulder pad so they can be used in HH. If so they'll be standing next the newer MKVI, so when the article says 'modern space marine' it might be talking about MKVI as well as Primaris.

I am pretty glad with the models. I welcome the lack of variation, though if a multipart kit has variation, both would look great together

Right? It would be bloody weird for an existing kit of 5 to be replaced with anything less, regardless of the models getting bigger.

So as people have said, this is presumably the limited version that'll be in the starter box, so hopefully we'll see the new heavy flamer and cyclone missile launcher once they get a solo release too.

Excellent, so that's settled.

You have a problem with "the Imperialis, the sign of loyalty unbroken for 10,000 years"?  [This is meant to be humorous] 

 

I'm guessing we'll see more variation in the MPK.

My God... Space Wolves look incredible when there's not too much bling.

 

So happy its a squad of 5, and seeing the teleport homer there with the kit means we might indeed see that equipment seen next to the Gravis Apothecary too.

They really do. I honestly also prefer the Deathwing like this instead of over ladden with stuff. Makes them more fun to paint
