What a surprise.

[Reinhard]

Given how much new things there are for both armies, it was pretty expected.

[Sete]

Dig the artwork.
C'mon announce the BT supplement next lmao

Did I just see DA and SW iconography inside ?

[01RTB01]

Just need a month known and I'll be happy. Looks like the monolith and a primaris tank forthcoming too

[Marshal Loss]

Two brand new Space Marine codexes in under a year if this lands by August. Surely that's a record

[Sete]

SM will be august probs according to our French friends.
(Wrong info aparently)

Yeah that can't be good.. I hope GK's don't get that treatment as well.

[Lord Marshal]

As much as I still dislike the new logo, I much prefer the overall style of those codex cover designs.

I haven't even bothered with the latest one since I came back to 40k a few weeks ago.

It's good enough for BT it's good enough for everyone

Both codexes (Space Marines & Necrons) are coming in October.

 

Very interesting for Dark Angels/Blood Angels/Space Wolf players, you now use supplements:

 

 

The new Codex: Space Marines will replace the current Space Marine codex, as well as the other First Founding and Deathwatch codexes – making it an invaluable tome that covers all those elements common across the forces of the Space Marines. A literal Codex Astartes*.

Players using Chapters covered in the last Space Marine codex can carry on using their expansions with the new book – White Scars, Imperial Fists, Iron Hands, Ultramarines, Salamanders, Raven Guard and Black Templars using their codex expansion in the Psychic Awakening series.

For fans of the Dark Angels, Space Wolves, Blood Angels and Deathwatch?

If you have one of these armies, good news – not only do you get a shiny new core codex with loads of new toys to play with, but you also have a new codex supplement on the way. You’ll be able to tailor your Space Marines force to fully embody the theme and spirit of their Chapter, and of course, include all their unique units and heroes.

Eesh, October is a long way out

[Triszin]

Sad puppy noises.
We are a generic codex complaint now

[SkimaskMohawk]

3 marine codexes in about 3 years. 8th was definitely the failed edition, far more than 6th.

Pisses me off, seriously.

Been back in the hobby less than 2 years - this is the 3rd Marine codex I have needed in that time, plus a supplement. Feel pretty bad

[The Observer]

Honestly, all stuff being rolled into one book - provided no units or characters are lost - is a fantastic thing, speaking as a Blood Angels, Dark Angels and regular codex player.

Hell, the fluff is 99% recycled from edition to edition and inbetween codizes anyways.

Ba, da, sw

[Skywrath]

Let's not forget Deathwatch and Grey Knights..

Long overdue.

This is coming from an SM player, playing SM exclusively for 15 years.

[Joe]

Stuffing all the Space Marines into one book is great - anything additional can be chucked in via supplements or White Dwarf.

[Reinhard]

At least you're guaranteed to get proper supplements....

Pete Foley said that all options have been preserved, so I think BA, DA, SW and DW players should be ok.

I can think of one chapter about to get screwed over...
