Dantay VI Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I agree with Slips, but I would say, test your yellows on some old miniatures first, then when you feel confident go for the command squad :) And don't always go off of others IF's.There are some major talents on here that blow your mind and make the impossible look easy. Do not compare yourself to them, but look to them for hints and tips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corswain Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 May have been answered and may be too late to ask but does anyone know if FW will continue to produce its resin versions when GW releases it's plastic? ie When the MK IV plastic come out, will FW discontinue theirs? I can see good arguments for and against it but personally I think more options are always better. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire Golem Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 So if book 6 is shattered legion, will book 7 be signus? Or the shadow crusade? Book 7 hopefully should be Prospero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Taelos Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I'm really looking forward to the next book! I've been wanting to do a loyalist army, but couldn't decide what Legion - Shattered Legions sounds like a great option, I'll probably mix some Iron Hands, Salamanders and Imperial Fists. Lots of heavy weathering and you can roleplay the various characters bickering about whose fault it is that they're in this mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
depthcharge12 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Maybe they'll include Sharrowkyn ;) WS10 BS10 S10 T10 W10 Ld: Better than yours scrub Needle Rifle: If there is an enemy Primarch or HQ choice on the board, they instantly suffer a S: D hit with a +3 on the D chart.

Atia Posted September 6, 2015 Author Share Posted September 6, 2015 So if book 6 is shattered legion, will book 7 be signus? Or the shadow crusade? Book 7 hopefully should be Prospero. Book VI: Shattered Legions/Shadow Wars --> Book VII: Prospero --> Book VIII either Signus/Thramas or Mars schism --> Shadow Crusade/Imperium Secundus - but FW's schedule isn't set in stone, keep that in mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scribe Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 · Hidden by Brother-Chaplain Kage, September 7, 2015 - Off topic Hidden by Brother-Chaplain Kage, September 7, 2015 - Off topic I'm not gonna say 'I hope they arent made executioners' because I think its a horrible thing Dan added to the canon, and ADB already cast enough ambiguity on the concept when Angron told Russ to walk, and backed it up with Russ crawling away. FW will not disappoint us, I am sure, they dont go all in on bad concepts (Executioners, Not just marines, Marines!, and assorted hyperbole) there will be some of it, and there will be hints, and there will be teasers, but it wont be as brutally communicated as Prospero Burns was. At this point, I just want more HH books (fiction and rules!) Link to comment

Olis Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Waiting for Book XX. You might have to wait a little while for that. Say... about a decade. So, back on topic - do we have any more info or pictures from Amsterdam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Perils Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I don't think so. I have got a picture of the Tau titan standing next to the exclusive launch Space Marine Centurion (spoilers: the centurion is about as tall as that thing's heel) but I still have to get it up. (one of the three bad quality pictures I was able to take with my camera's internal memory...) the others were the painted ordinatus and a piece of concept art that has already been posted.

DuskRaider Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 As a player of one of the older Legions, the news of new Rites of War is VERY exciting.

Legion traits are just getting implemented for everyone who isn't a son of Russ or Magnus This. But yeah, new Rites of War is way too exciting. Sounds like the number available is literally going to get doubled, which is just amazing. And some of these might even make formerly "useless" units slightly more useful or even competitive. I'm sure the EC players would love to finally have useful Kakophoni, for example... And think of the ridiculous utility units like Maloghurst gain. He'll be able to take arguably the best aspect of The Black Reaving (Reavers as troops) and then just go ahead and combine that with a separate, exclusive RoW. There's some awesome potential. Is this book also going to include the new Consuls? Kind of seems like a good opportunity to make things like the Praevian, Delegatus and whatever else they may have dreamed up in the meantime more official. Plus Praevian automata w/BA/DA/WS special rules, and maybe the automata points adjustments from the Mechanicum red book for Legion automata.

b1soul Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 · Hidden by Brother-Chaplain Kage, September 7, 2015 - Off topic Hidden by Brother-Chaplain Kage, September 7, 2015 - Off topic Like I said earlier this is getting tiresome All the legions are snowflakes :P All have their specialties.... I think literally the executioner is more a case of they will execute the order, whatever the order is rather, than hey we are here to execute you!! (pulls out a wooden block, a big axe and mask :D Its like this schtick with Imperial Fists being the Emperors Praetorians. No they are not. The true Praetorians are the Custodes, they are the ones who truly guard the Emperor. The Imperial Fists build walls to hide behind. Ultramarines: Logistical snow flake Imperial Fist: Hiding behind a wall and shooting stuff snowflake Night Lords : Terrorific snowflake World Eaters: Bloodthirsty assault snowflake Alpha's: Sneaky snowflake SoH: Elite, warmasters finest snowflake T-Sons: Psychic snowflake Salamanders: Fiery snowflake Iron Warriors: Siege breaker snowflake Emperors Children: Perfection/blade master snowflake Scars: Super fast snowflake Iron Hands, bionic mech warfare snowflake Raven Guard: mobile warfare snowflake Death Guard: bio warfare tough mothers snowflake Dark Angels: Knightly snowflake Blood Angels: Close quarter snowflake Word Bearers: Daemonic snowflake I think you're obscuring the issue. No other legion is an "executioner of other legions" snowflake. That is what's rubbing some ppl the wrong way. It's a bit tiresome that you don't see this distinction Link to comment
Iron Hands Fanatic Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I think that the assumption the whole 'executioner' thing refers to other Legions is the mistake here. I strongly suspect that FW will take it in the direction of the Wolves suppressing and exterminating succesionist forces within the Imperium - after all, over 200 years, there will have been plenty of Imperial forces which will have attempted to break away. Of course after decades of doing this, the Wolves will start to believe this makes them special, and that if a Legion turned traitor they'd be especially good at taking them down, but self-delusion isn't a trait exclusive to the VIth Legion.

I'm honestly hoping for a Rite of War that reflects the Word Bearers pre-Enlightenment. I would love to see how Forge World envisions them fighting at the height of their fervor for the Emperor.

I havent seen that many negative comments about any legion on this sub forum Its the loyalist circlejerk equivalent of "abaddon is a failure/has no arms". Nothing wrong with space wolves if FW can keep their theme in check with the grittiness that we've come to expect from them. On the topic of the FW open: new rites has got me excited as well.
