Fun irony of the limited edition codex not selling out is someone is going to have to melt down all those metal Salamanders icons

Its a beautiful book that will be completely invalid in 3 years and is insanely priced.  Its like over $400.

Knowing current GW it´s already invalid before anyone gets it to their hands. Erratas out the wazoo lately due to rushed productions

Between Armageddon, Leviathan and poor impulse control (can it be poor if I don't have any?) I've got a fledgling blood angels force. 

 

Do I need the marine codex or will the blood angels supplement suffice? I'm fine either way I'm just not 100% so thanks in advance for clarity :)

As of next Saturday you'll need just the marine codex, with BA specific stuff free to access in an index.

 

There will be a BA book coming at some point, no idea if it's a stand alone based on wording used, or a supplement.

You could almost buy 2 shares in Games Workshop for the price of this book

And unlike this book, the value of GW's shares only goes up!

For the last decade at least!

I got the codex in my hands and had a first look. Overall really impressive I have to say. There is a lot of art and of course model pictures. All the background around organisation, creating a marine and so on. I've seen (not read yet) some short story snippets, too. There are painting and collecting guides and a double page with a war gear overview so newcomers know which weapon is which. There are a lot of shiny golden Aquila's and trims throughout the book which I find look really cool. Well that's a proper Codex Astartes time I would say.

 

But as there is nearly no mentioning of the divergent chapters at all I guess they will get their own codizies and not supplements. If I remember correctly they were at least introduced within the main C:SM or was this a in earlier editions codex? At least there are not mentioned within the fight founding chapters.
