Firstborn BA kits gone (Pre-Orders, start of October)

[Brother Navaer Solaq]

 

That sounds quite plausible, an assault Terminator squad led by either a lieutenant in Terminator armour or an apothecar in Terminator armour. Struggling to think who else we'd need character wise in Terminator armour. Maybe an Ancient?

I would like to see ancient in terminator armour and techmarine as well.

 Same, but biased here:
"Give me all the characters/roles in terminator armour for my Deathwing!"

edit - to add if they appear for any other faction e.g. BA I will be 'borrowing them'

rather than Drukhari for example. 

Honestly the Drukhari range feels pretty good to me? It would be nice to see Vect return (and new models for the Court of the Archon and Urien Rakarth) but the line as a whole is pretty damn solid.

 The currently available models are mostly good - other than Wracks, arguably Kabalites, and Archon's pose - but it's just quite a slim selection. Apart from all the missing characters/court, there isn't a great deal of choice for HQ, or squads really. I feel like there's a lot of scope for improving/expanding the faction. Whereas Orks - which are my biggest own army -  have a much deeper range and pretty much all in decent state, now that new Tankbustas are nearly here.

I reckon we'll get at least one of them when they get a new book. Maybe a new beast master as well?

Terminator Lieutenant

Terminator Ancient (that's not reliant on the BA Assault Terminators kit)

Terminator Apothecary (Probably closer to the Gravis Apothecary in function)

Terminator Techmarine

[Jolemai]

None of which will be with the BA release.

Any rumors or leaks from distributors about the Combat Patrol release?

[Dark Shepherd]

Any speculation on why it was delayed?

Cant think what would hold it up other than the boxes (packaging) being held up in transit or they worried they underproduced the component kits

[ZeroWolf]

At this stage I'm guessing packaging could be the culprit. I know people have been saying it's to get people to buy the sang guard individually but considering that this is the only one they've done it too, makes it hard to believe.

[LittlePlasticHomies]

Anybody know which transfer is actually in the combat patrol? There's a few different ones floating around now between the Death Company, Sang Guard and upgrade pack.

[DarkMark]

You can see the transfer sheet on GW's site. It's not the same as the one in the recent big box.
