New Edition, or Just Horus Hearsay?

[Xirix]

It would be interesting if Heavy Flamer template from 2nd Edition made a comeback. I still have my three cardboard flamer sizes from the box set. XD

 

(Also I'm giving a dislike to the Horus Hearsay for saying "Do the Math", instead of "Do the Maths" :P)

Saturnine Dreadnought sounds very interesting, but myself I'm still praying for plastic Mk. IV Castra Ferrum. Seriously, I could forgive a LOT of GW's nonsense if they gave us a modern boxnought on par with the plastic Contemptor (which to be fair I have yet to have the pleasure of building, but I understand is a very nice kit).

I've built and painted 3, they're a very nice kit as are the Leviathans.

If they really are revisiting the templates I’m extremely optimistic for barrage, blast, torrent, etc to get upgraded rules like the Apocalyptic templates where we get our AP3 basilisks back in the three inch circle, AP4 in the traditional 5inch large blast template. I’d love an AP3 or Double Str Heavy Flamer if you’re right up on the enemy. (just spitballing how they could play with the templates, I’m not a game dev)

 

 

edit: ooooooh maybe a hinged template for torrent

I would love that. Especially if they included a Siege Dreadnought weapon and armour sprue.

Distenegrator weapon sprues are an interesting addition to the prior rumor. Given the prior precedent of multiple weapons being included, combi-weapons disappearing from the store may be related. They could release a 2nd version of the special weapon set from Heresy 2.0 and complete the plastification of weapon options for Tactical Support or Veteran Marines. Rest of the box looks great if true.
