Doghouse Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Best thing I ever did was learn ignore GW release schedules and marketing hype to become more patient for things that I wanted to get when I needed them rather than felt I had to get immediately or miss out. I won't be touching this edition but it's interesting to see Mk II being a solo release this early on and that the army books releases are on day one too. brother_b and StratoKhan 1 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385821-new-edition-or-just-horus-hearsay/page/120/#findComment-6119925 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astartes Consul Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Nice to have the Mk II on launch, will be exciting to pick up a set and not touch it for months because I’ve got so much else half finished! hHopefully we get some more Legion specific rules previews this week Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385821-new-edition-or-just-horus-hearsay/page/120/#findComment-6119926 Share on other sites More sharing options...

This obsession over it reached absurd (in the dumb way) levels. Just wait 'till the Primarch stats are out and we start getting "my dad is smarter than your dad," discussions. Nice to see MK2 available straight away. I think my priority for this weekend is going to be the Libers so I can figure out how to move my army lists to 3rd. Saturnine will just have to wait a little for the hobby budget fo build. painting.for.my.sanity, Gorgoff, BitsHammer and 5 others 8 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385821-new-edition-or-just-horus-hearsay/page/120/#findComment-6119927 Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a bit worrying, but I can’t see that as 100% stated anywhere in what WarCom have put out about the new edition. I’ve just emailed customer services to ask if they’re planning on releasing digital copies of the rules and libers for the new edition, I’ll update as and when I get an answer.

They haven't been "pulled" - all the books up to wood elves are available still from Warhammer digital! https://www.warhammerdigital.com/WHD-LP-The-Old-World The change is that the Matched Play Guide and Cathay are not available as ebooks, having come out on Saturday. Hopefully they are just delayed, and hopefully the same here too!

Antarius Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 I'm pretty torn on this, tbh. Last time I managed to hold off until people started selling the box second hand and I kinda want to do the same this time around, as I don't have anyone to play with at this time + I have loads of other projects I could do instead. At the same time, I'd also really like to have those tasty new marines...

Stitch5000 Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 21 hours ago, Wibbling said: I appreciate the intent to create variation between roles - a Chaplain could have absurd levels of leadership and will power but lesser cool, or a sorceror very high will power but lower leadership. That works in an RPG and, on paper it adds flavour to heroes but as with Rogue Trader I think it'll just slow the game down as rules are checked to determine the statistic to use You've just stated two quite logical eventualities, so I don't think it needs to slow anything down by an appreciable amount.

Nephaston Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 25 minutes ago, Matcap86 said: Ah that makes a bit more sense. Thanks! They'll become even more palatable when compare to 40k marine units, where they start at 47,50€ (tacticals) and go up to 55€ for ten bodies. Unless it's Kill Team where it goes up to 62,50€ for the included markers and, in case of the scout kill team, extra transfers. So even at 70€ they're arguably a bargain when compared to any off the bolter units in LSM or CSM, especially when buying from a third party store.
