The Flamer might be the same stats in that it has everything the same but might be Twin Linked. 

I did consider this, here's to hoping you are right. Here is also hoping the pre-order announcement goes up this sunday. 

[The Praetorian of Inwit]

Do you think it will?

 

It would certainly be good for TS players to not be left behind. 

 

I'm surprised we haven't seen anything of the limited edition codex yet. Not that anyone other than scalpers will get it.

I imagine just like the others you'll see and get the LE dex with the release of army box and combat patrol. should be pretty soon

They did show some of it on stream, they just completely forgot it in the article.

I'm starting to think it was "hidden from our auguries" as an overt hint that we will be last, or delayed.

sekhatar robots:

T7 6W 3+/5++
infiltrate/stealth.

BS4+ but can improve to 3+ if led by sorc. Melta gun S10 AP4 D6 (melta 2). Free overwatch. 

 

Was not expecting Infiltrate, that could be interesting. Suprise Ninja Chozo Statues making a mess of the front line while the rest ofthe army gets into gear.  

[Nephaston]

I do approve of the recent influx of infiltrate options across multiple armies, especially for not actually traditionally stealthy sneaky beaky units, like rising out of the ground poxwalkers, vibing on the battlefield goremongers, and "I do what I want" Tormentors.

On Dakka the poster demontalons posted some TS rumors that are a little bit different from those that were posted here earlier:

Yep this came from someone who was in contact with the book allegedly

 

By the way the supposed Thousand Sons Sorcerer ability for +d3 Str and Attacks is for his psychic shooting attack and not melee attack, which would make a lot more sense. The person who is getting info from a guy who supposedly saw the book has corrected this.
