Trivia: that bit was originally a Dirge Caster, which was considered an "Undivided"/generic upgrade. (Probably most associated with the Word Bearers.) The "Slaanesh" vehicle upgrade was the Warp Amp: (I'd still love it if each of the Cult Legions got their own Vehicle Upgrade Sprue. I think it'd go a long way to making them feel fuller as a range while still sharing a fair bit of stuff with CSMs.) They need to do this as our anti tank for sure!! , would really bulk out the heavy infantry we are getting in this release and then wave 2 in 11th could be -Eidolon -Sonic Dreadnought -Phoenix terminators -Sonic tank -Some other characters Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384251-ec-rumours/page/19/#findComment-6081396 Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmprahsStrongestGuardsman Posted December 16 Share Posted December 16 (edited) 1 hour ago, Macidious said: Sonic dreadnoughts are gone gone sadly , like they used to be an option to add a blastmaster onto hellbrutes to be a “sonic dreadnoughts” but they got rid of that, maybe they’ll bring it back again when ec get hellbrutes , but I hope they do get a new one, with the rumours it doesn’t seem likely so maybe in 11th they’ll do a wave 2 with eidolon , terminators and vehicles Preds too.

EmprahsStrongestGuardsman Posted December 16 Share Posted December 16 (edited) There were some cool conversions back in the day. I never really did any cos Sonic weapons are a pretty unique shape, hard to convert.

(Not mine btw, I wish) [SNIP] The Sonic Pred is probably also a bit forgotten because... like, taking a Sonic Blaster instead of a Heavy Bolter was just flatly a bad gameplay decision? "Yes, I'd like to decrease my range, strength, and armour piercing, why thank you." (A Blastmaster for an Autocannon was a maybe...) When mounted on a tank, you took away a Sonic Weapon's main benefit at that time: that it was an Assault weapon. Vehicles didn't care about that.

Don’t say sixbound , I’ll get ptsd lol , I actually really really really hope it isn’t just “marines who are possessed” it would be so lazy from gw to be like yeah just do what world eaters got -Dual kit Lord -Primarch -Their special unit -A Battleline -Eightbound / Sixbound like come on gw you must have some creative flare EmprahsStrongestGuardsman 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384251-ec-rumours/page/19/#findComment-6081411 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedFox Posted December 16 Share Posted December 16 I don't really see GW topping the perfection that is FW's Fulgrim model...so I'm just hoping they have the same base size (most likely 100mm).

Macidious Posted December 16 Share Posted December 16 Obviously we all know that we will be given things from the csm codex to make the army viable , my wish list is that we get something a bit different to others, like obviously we will get: -Helldrake -Mauler and forge fiends -The tanks but I hope we may also keep: -Lord discordant -Master of possessions -Possessed -Chosen -Venomcrawlers -Obliterators Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384251-ec-rumours/page/19/#findComment-6081415 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Ruminahui Posted December 16 Share Posted December 16 As it turns out, most of the demon detachment artwork is colour shifted chaos space marine art (including a slannesh marine for the khorne detachment) so I wouldn't put any particular weight on the art assets used. Personally, I would expect EC to keep the more "generically" released chaos options (tanks, hellbrutes, the 2 fiends) and less likely to keep the stuff that originally came bundled together and are currently less available options (olbits, venowcrawler). Then there are the kind of inbetween category of commonly available but more niche in application (chosen, warpsmith, MoE, MoP, possessed, helldrake, havocs, etc) which kind of fall in between and really depend on GWs vision and where it might see overlaps in roles. That said, I would be happy to forego some of the "between" category (say, warpsmiths and helldrakes) for things like oblits and venomcrawlers - but am expecting to be disappointed.
