Guess it’s Foot SP only moving forward

 

Oh my poor Vanguard Veterans. Your time in the sun was too short.

When do I get to see this with either Emperor's Children or chaos dwarves? ;)

Legends rules will probably be available.

 

I really hope they come to the realisation that they could easily offer character upgrade sprues for stuff like jump packs. Bikes would probably take a specific "Space Marine Officer on Bike" kit though.

We'd need non-Push Fit Outriders first

Nah, first we probably get push-fit phobos dirt bikes for 11th, with another Phobos Lievtenant (on dirt bike)

You joke but new scout bikes are always an option.

That's still be a great release for the 12 remaining White Scars players (including myself).

Did you include me?

Don’t talk bikes unless they’re for Chaos.

I really like the proportions on these models. Not sure if the helmetless heads are a little bigger or what, but when looking at the first picture of the captain I can see how a (super)human physique would actually fit into the armor and be able to move as fast as Marines are described moving while retaining flexibility to fight and maneuver.

I wouldn't trust the social media team to know anything other than what's in the post, they've been very wrong before. But it does not bode well. 

 

The fact that we're 7 years into Primaris rollout and we're *STILL* losing options is insanity. Glad I've mostly moved away from giving GW my money

I guess they can't get the insurance to cover them on bikes or jump packs.

Apothecary/Sanguinary Priest is fine. More than fine. Captain is a bit "meh" in my opinion. 

[Paladin777]

I think they look decent, if a little bland. It's nice to see inferno pistols back on the menu though.

 

Tbh, so far I'm pretty underwhelmed with the release. 

[Orange Knight]

I can't get over how good the Captain model looks.

 

Just one question for the Blood Angels lore masters.

 

What decides if his armour is Gold or Red? I really love the example shown with the power sword, death-mask and golden armour.

My understanding is that, at least in earlier editions, it was based on if he was wearing artificer armour or not.

[Nephaston]

Could also be them emulating Sanguinius. Do we know if members of the sanguinary guard can become captains? If that's the case it could be a way to show services rendered.

[MithrilForge]

The Captain in Gold Rocks it !! Been years since something tempted me to play marines... This has been the Closest ...

Congrats to BA players, look forward to seeing some very nice painted models in your forum !!

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if these went the way of the do-do this edition.

I am really loving the new Captain kit. I particularly like the call-backs so it can be built as almost-Tycho or completely different. I think that might be the bets generic character model GW has made.

 

All Marine Captains seem to get Rites of Battle + another ability. Since he has an Inferno pistol, it will be a new data sheet and I will be interested to see if he gets Finest Hour or something new.

Paint him purple and the drops in white and he is good to go as a Soul Drinkers officer.

Personal taste I think. If we take in how much of the official art show SM captains do many have a armour with personal paintjob with added gold/white/checkered patterns/other colour, and/or decorations.

[Blindhamster]

I’m legitimately baffled by anyone calling the captain kit “bland”

 

right now I’m just feeling impatient to get all the cool things!

[Marshal Mittens]

Wish they had included jump pack options but I like them, either way.
