Indy Techwisp Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Is the Steeljack not just the Ironkin equivalent to the Cthonian Berserks? They're both heavily modified from their "original" form for a very specific purpose. Also, could the Steeljacks not just be Ironkyn who went up to their Votann and demanded harder battles and a body to fight them with?

AvePicante Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 So, any guesses on when the new Votann launch hits? The original launch tracker had us between the Salamanders and the Iron Fists, but I don't know if they'll follow that schedule, release all of the SM combat patrols together, or if they'll come after us. Does October/November seem accurate?

INKS Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Somewhere mid Aug? just guessing and going off of what others have suggested. My Bday is late Aug and so I would not be against that either. I want the new codex. 1 box steel jacks and 1 box of mortars to start with. :) still can't decide on colours.

I think mid-August is a little too fast unfortunately. The Black Templars and the Grey Knights are still mid-release, and they'll probably spend a couple of release cycles on AoS and other releases. Still, I'll keep my fingers crossed!! Happy birthday month too!

Does October/November seem accurate? Supposedly the paperback of High Kahl's Oath is slated for an August 28th release (according to Amazon), so mid-August for pre-order may be on the cards since it would make sense to tie that release in with the codex. Then again, the 28th is a Thursday.

The Steeljacks are probably closer to original DAOT Men of Iron combat forms, whereas the typical Ironkin are modified to be more appropriate for helping the Kin directly. 1 hour ago, AvePicante said: I think mid-August is a little too fast unfortunately.

I can't see it being much later really as there's still a few other things to come this year so doing it much later would be squeezing in a lot into a small timeframe phandaal, Emperor Ming, INKS and 1 other 2 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386293-leagues-of-votann-second-wave/page/5/#findComment-6125687 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, GW are a bit mysterious with how they plan these releases. Both this and Eldar had enough new figures to put in a box, unless the issue was that this wave (and the eldar one before it) didn't contain any "troops".

I did wonder if they might announce one after the reveals but seemed infinitely less likely once the reveal show passed. I’m just mystified by the lack of consistency with their codex releases and why some get launch boxes with codex and cards and others don’t. tzeentch9 and ZeroWolf 1 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386293-leagues-of-votann-second-wave/page/5/#findComment-6126026 Share on other sites More sharing options...
