I wonder if there will still be wargear restrictions based on the various captain models, e.g. no giving both a power fist and relic shield, has to be sword and relic shield as per the indomitus captain model.

I'd be stoked with 6 man Outriders and getting a detachment to make them battle line. White Scars and Ravenwing would rejoice.

I know “everyone” is always harping on marines getting the new kit whenever anyone else does, but a MPK with sergeant weapon options for Outriders would make me so happy.

The Finest Hour ability is awesome, making me very excited to keep running my Indomitus Captain. Both useful and flavorful. Space Marine Captains feel suitably dangerous without being game-breakingly good now.

Anyone else confused they've removed Primaris Keywords from things but added it to this Captain datasheet? Is it potentially a fake?

I think it’s to differentiate from the Command Squad Captain options.

You can see it here on WarCom so not fake. I guess it's just to differentiate from the regular captain.

But the other side of the card shows who they can join?

 

I'm so confused.

Sorry, I meant like the various Firstborn Captain models that have been made over the years, like the one that can be built from the Command Squad box.

So is it this week we're getting the Marine Index?

Seems to imply it's this week as next week they're rolling out other armies?

 

I'm finally excited for this! The hype on the run up doesn't do it for me, but the idea of playing again by next weekend or even this weekend does!

I believe tomorrow is the nids, and Friday marines, then yeah, others next week

I believe he was a limited release thing to commemorate store openings or something in that vein?

Just kitbash, at this point though.  Or get the Messinius model and file away the Ultra symbols.

Or the same with Captain Lazarus.

It's legal on Battlescribe too; the model itself got rules, so it's "legal" in that SPECIFIC combination, it's just not legal to mix and match.

Which is dumb, but eh, pretty small potatoes in the realm of "Stupid stuff we put up with cuz GW is nuts and Power Armor is Cool"

Wonder if that was updated after it was pointed out :laugh:

 

By the by, I think the reason that the captain lost the W was because the way they're working shields now, as the relic shield bumps the total wounds back to 6. Keeping it at 6 as basic would mean a 7 wound captain running around.

seeing as its a 7 wound captain with a 4++ instead of a 6 wound captain with a 3++ I don't see how it would have been an issue lol
