More 11th Edition Boxset Rumours

[LostTemplar]

Well, for 11th edition, the Tactical Squad seems to be different from the Tacticus, since the new "The Maelstrom: Crucible of Champions", on the warhammer community article, mentions this:

Chances are the Tactical will continue to exist, but it won't be Tacticus. So I'm guessing still not having intercessor/primaris guys.

Maybe, though I’m not going to hold my breath. Those are rules for now, in 10th, when Tactical Squads do exist. There’s no guarantee of 100% comparability with a future Marine codex.

I mean, as much as there's only months of 10th remaining, these books are releasing primarily for use in 10th... I wouldn't read into the tactical squad's inclusion here.

He also mentioned that the Speeder might be a new "heavy" variant so something bigger than the Stormspeeders?

 

He also called Bolters carried by Gravis "cannons". 

 

So our options are:

- Autocannons - Might have been mistaken with Bolters, especially if they look different or have short barrel. 

- Bolt Cannon - Something like Mauler, but carried by Marines. 

- Frag Cannon - Another option, that could be mistaken for Bolt weapon. 

- Something new that none thought of so far.

I'm a slut for Autocannons and Frag Cannons, so I'm personally rooting for those.

So long as they’re 18” range… 24” at most.
