Kilamandaros Posted Thursday at 02:12 PM Share Posted Thursday at 02:12 PM Leaked review of the codex (seems legit but take with some salt as he doesn't seem that familiar with the current rules and is only showing the current stat blocks as a comparison so could be making mistakes on what has changed). If accurate then the transport detachment looks great and very thematic, definitely my pick of the 3 Sir Clausel and redmapa 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386134-codex-supplement-black-templars-new-ancient/page/7/#findComment-6124067 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were a real sentence he said which then had the words redacted (as opposed to just a gimmicky sentence constructed with redacteds at the outset), it would presumably not be for BT fans, as he would change gears and mention a completely different group than what he had hitherto been discussing.

Orange Knight Posted Friday at 11:22 PM Share Posted Friday at 11:22 PM Plenty from the book looks good to me. I don't think we should pass judgement until we've seen everything in action. I'm impressed with how thematic some of the detachments and rules are. I'm hoping GW improve how armies reflect the lore going forward.

Emperor Ming Posted Friday at 11:36 PM Share Posted Friday at 11:36 PM Templars are bottomish, so I would have been expecting decent point drops and decent buffs rather than sidegrades Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386134-codex-supplement-black-templars-new-ancient/page/7/#findComment-6124322 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonGSides Posted yesterday at 02:01 AM Share Posted yesterday at 02:01 AM They pulled a lot of power out of named heroes which is always a positive in my opinion.

Mmmmm Napalm Posted yesterday at 04:23 PM Share Posted yesterday at 04:23 PM (edited) I'm happy the sword brethren datasheet represents the fiction once again, with no squad leader in the form of a castellan. Unfortunately, the neophytes' shotguns and boltguns are still classified as "neophyte firearms." GW's insistence on the stupid "has to be included in the box or it's not a wargear option" being taken to the extreme of invalidating an option included in an upgrade kit made just 4 years ago...

Personally Im quite happy with the rules, they seem very fun and thematic, it definitely opens up a lot of new list ideas and I cant wait to test them.

HeadlessCross Posted yesterday at 04:50 PM Share Posted yesterday at 04:50 PM 20 hours ago, Blindhamster said: They look pretty good to me tbh In what sense? The Ancient based detachment is frankly laughable and the Transport detachment is a worse version of what other armies received. You MIGHT use the Chappy one (and with the army rule change, the Grotmas detachment is at least now interesting), but this gonna be the same scenario as Dark Angels where you basically take a couple of your specific units (AKA Sword Brethren instead of Deathwing Knights) and play Gladius or Stormlance.

Antarius Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago Or, hear me out, you might actually want to play the army because of what it is, rather than what people on the internet pretend is optimally efficient. Army rules aren't supposed to be merely a delivery system for maximum damage output (or whatever the current meta says is the new hotness), they're also supposed to convey a certain character and atmosphere. I mean, if I basically just wanted to do a lot of Excel sheets, I could get a job doing that.

jimbo1701 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago I actually don’t really mind how strong the detachments are or not. As long as I can hurl 60+ marines and a couple of vehicles up the table in the emperors name and know that it suits the style of the army I’m happy.
