CL_Mission Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago (edited) More Marines you say? A new jump Captain will be available for Warhammer day I wonder if his shield is a look at what Vanguard Vets will get.

Lord Marshal Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago Interesting that he's a regular range item. Guess that means the current one will be going away? He's not even three years old, right? Funny they should drop that when people were discussing how young Primaris Calgar's model was.

Larkhainan Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago Yeah I don't see them dropping the existing captain, this is probably just the one intended to pair up with vanguard vets in nine months Data sheet already allows this loadout besides Karhedron, VanDutch, DemonGSides and 1 other 2 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386689-warhammer-day-new-space-marine-captain/#findComment-6132281 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't get that impression. its an event exclusive for warhammer day, it can be pre ordered but is still part of the "commemorative series" Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386689-warhammer-day-new-space-marine-captain/#findComment-6132282 Share on other sites More sharing options...

CL_Mission Posted 14 hours ago Author Share Posted 14 hours ago 2 minutes ago, Orange Knight said: I bet he'll stay. The existing one has the power fist... Power weapon too and no shield. It's funny, having two different captain models with slightly different load outs with a focus on thunder hammers and storm shield is something that's been on my mind lately. I'm sure we all indulge in day dream of "if I was in charge this is how I would do it" and in my head I'd split Captains into "Has Storm Shield but can't take thunder hammer" and "Has Thunder Hammer but can't take storm shield. Just because I think outside of Terminators all thunder hammers should be two handed affairs like Deathwatch have and so a Marine wielding one should be able to also carry a shield, but it's not some super staunch belief or anything.

Lord Nord in Gravis Armour Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago Yeah, not only the Power Fist, but there's no mention of even a Power Sword for this guy, along with the pistol options the existing Captain has. So there's definitely plenty of justification for keeping them both around.

ZeroWolf Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago Yeah, that's is looking good. Good to hear it'll stick around (probably reboxed with either calgar or the 11th edition releases) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386689-warhammer-day-new-space-marine-captain/#findComment-6132290 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonGSides Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago I'm wondering if this passively confirms Vanguard Vets are going to continue to be Sword and Board type unit.

CL_Mission Posted 13 hours ago Author Share Posted 13 hours ago The fact that the Jump Captain retained Storm Shield and Thunder Hammer as options in the codex despite not having a model and this guy becoming a line item makes me think he's 'filling in' as an event model especially as he doesn't get a fancy name like the Chaos chap. We're presumably getting a preview show on the day, with this guy looking like he'll fit in with a squad of Vanguard Vets what are the chances we'll see them there?

Halandaar Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago (edited) Nice mini. Agree that the storm shield feels like a preview of what we can expect with the inevitable Vanguard Veteran redo kit.

ThaneOfTas Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago Very Solid, standard complaints about primaris Jump packs and leg nozzles aside, I love getting more options, and the bare head isn't bad (the helmet is boring as hell, but I never use the helmets my captains come with anyway.)

Casual Heresy Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago Very glad he's a range item so I don't have to scramble to get all the copies I need for my various armies/the kitbash pile on the day. I do wonder if he is coming alone or if we'll be getting some other marine releases on Warhammer Day? All praise the glorious return of smash captain! and now that we have an actual model he should be here to stay! (at least for a couple of editions...)

Marshal Reinhard Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago After I'd gone to the trouble of adding an iron halo to the old one, they release one that comes with one? But yeah, even though I have like a dozen marshals at this point, alternate pose and armaments for a jumpy one wouldn't go amiss. 26 minutes ago, Chapter Master Valrak said: He actually has the new Assault Terminator shield, cool.

Indy Techwisp Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago My Jump-focused White Scars list will enjoy this guy.

Interrogator Stobz Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago The details and weapon options are cool, shame the pose is a bit off. Seems like he wants to gently tap something with that hammer, or maybe he's offering to give it away. I think it's because the wrong leg is forward for a power stroke, and they're little skipping legs instead of doing something decisive. Love that shield shape, bling and gubbins on him, be great to see some more of them on new assault Termies.
