Did they recreate the about-to-retire plastic kit's legs? Quite possibly. The previous version of the sentinel was done in cad software, so they be able to port the legs over to another kit if they so desired.

OttoVonAwesome Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Going with it's the Herald consul cuase it's still a bit early to show the command and they have been on a roll releasing consuls lately.

Maybe each set can have some flashy options unique to each armour type. I'd be surprised if they didn't do command and assualt marines of each type (mk 3 having breachers instead) GW loves to milk marines and heresy can do that for years and years.

III arms. They seem to stick out a bit, which leads me to believe that the arms are the "mk agnostic" arms with the roundels that have had the vambraces glued onto em. That, and the pose being just about identical to one of the tactical squad poses lends credence to this being an upgrade sprue intended to be used with the existing mk. III and VI squads. I really hope it's not the case, 'cause beyond wanting a greater variety of poses, I was planning on getting multiple command squad kits and using hypothetical blinged up marine bodies imagined it would include to make veterans, sergeants, etc. This "command squad" being an upgrade sprue would be pretty lame but in keeping with the.... "economical" approach gw has taken with the HH plastic releases. Interesting theory cuase the elbows don't seem to be flared like the standard mark 3 either but also I have to point out that either herald or command they are artificier armour models and there's also stuff that doesn't match it being a standard mk 3 with bits. The pose isn't as squat and toes seem to be pointing more straight it's a true standing pose not a battle squat. The shoulder pads sure could be extra bit but the rims are sticking out alot more the plastic ones do on the sides there.

Ripper.McGuirl Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 I would love another Cthonia style book with some Aux add-ons in it. I’d like it even more if they expanded on the ZM rules in it or added another game type. Black Book IV, which originally had the Solar Aux, also had City Fight rules as well….I definitely wouldnt hate those popping up!

Marshal Rohr Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 I would bet the new scout sentinels are the same size as the Cawdor Walkers and will be packaged as such. Two sprues of two walkers. The Heavier Aethon Pattern will be similar to a dreadnaught if the Legiones Imperialis size holds up, so one box of three sprues for 60 bucks. As for the new units I think they might not want to add units to a campaign book and might release new Libers as the expanded armies are redone. For instance they could do a new Liber for just Solar Auxilia that also includes all of the Militia and Legends units from the last year with a few tweaks that would justify a new book. I also expect what we’ve seen about the Old World may be the format for the Heresy going forward, ie the Liber remains unchanged, but a soft back Army focuses Book is also released that lets you do other things like the rumored all peasants and all chariots for Bretonnia and Tomb Kings.

Matrindur Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 I wonder if the smaller Sentinel will also come to Legions Imperialis. Would be strange if not but GW does some weird decisions sometimes so I could see a possibility where the Aethon Sentinel is only in LI and the smaller Sentinel is only in HH Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/381991-horus-heresy-in-2024/page/4/#findComment-6012276 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vassakov Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 I wouldn't expect to see anything of the Solar Auxila until LVO - they may well be the big reveal, given that AoS is doing Dawnbringers, 40k most likely Orks and/or Custodes as single models and probably the other half of the Night Lords KT box (rumoured to be Mandrakes). painting.for.my.sanity and Lord Marshal 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/381991-horus-heresy-in-2024/page/4/#findComment-6013380 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Praetorian of Inwit Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 I would like it to be an upgrade sprue for the Command Squad. I prefer that approach.
