World Eaters about to get a little something this year, so yeah... wait for this release, don't hold out hopes for wave 2 in 2-3 years. GW has too many armies and it takes too long to get back to a wave 2 or more from the initial wave release. such is the state of 40k life.

Cpt.Danjou Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Wave 2? What is that? When was the last time we got a wave 2? I assume it will be a drip feed ripple once every second year. And if the cult marines get the daemons, GW will claim that they all got huge amount of models this edition, and can wait for 5-10 years till next time they get a box with more than one character.

Tokugawa Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 As daemons units absorbed by legion codexes, TSons players may see their wave2 containing few to none marine models, but both Tzaangors and Horrors.

apologist Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Wonder if we'll see the Daemons receive techy bits (like the Tzaangor sprue), in the wake of Vashtorr's ascension/appearance? Artwork's not a reliable guide, but interesting to see a more mechanical/ornamented Daemonette(?) on the cover of the upcoming EC Codex.

Rhavien Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 I'm drooling all over this! Wanted to start EC for a decade or so, but never got behind the first squad.

Orange Knight Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 (edited) New models are incredible. Lucius is fantastic. On another note, Fulgrim is clearly a fan of the Primaris.

mecanojavi99 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 The perfect way to describe the EC range is that they are excessive, which in this case is a well deserved compliment. My only pet peeve is that the melee/ranged normal marines could have been a single unit, but that ship sailed long ago. About Daemons being rolled into the legion books, I've been an advocate of it since AoS came up with that idea, it just makes sense to combine daemons and mortals of a God in the same book, just make it so you have at least 3 types of detachments, 1 full daemons, 1 full mortals and 1 mixed. Yes, it's a shame that Chaos Daemons as we know them will cease to exist, but as long as GW keeps that option around as an index I don't see the problem.

INKS Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 I am sad about Deamons being rolled in. Not because I don't want them to be rolled in that part is ok, but because it likely means solo deamons or a deamons only codex is less and less likely. I guess we'll see. but we also kinda knew it was coming.
