This unending avalanche of marines is rather impressive. The game is like a new Horus Heresy except every side is loyal to the Emperor.
The comment about how whoever you are playing there is cool stuff coming... well Craftworld players say hi. I'm not holding my breath tbh. The new Necron models do look amazing though.
Maybe Orks?First xenos codex is early 2021 they said. I wonder which one they'll do
I can see a wave of a bike kit, bike command squad, ravenwing etc, I doubt we'll see it before 10th edition though.Honestly, I see this as really the last big batch for Space Marines.
This is really just a repeat of the stormcast eternal rollout in Aos, and after the first four waves, they haven't been that many.
The only thing primaries marines needs "rulewise" is a flier, as the firstborn replacement is over with.
Thematically, some players will want terminator armor, but I don't think that's necessary tbh.
Yeah I think they are fairly likely.
I don't know, I kinda dig how the mono pose assault intercessors look compared to this kit. Oh well, cheaper times for me.
Also if you've already bought Indomitus, you can buy this set and then have two units of ten, all different marines, both with sergeants with power fist/hammer/sword. That's pretty cool. Also something I might try as my opponents will never expect me to deploy 20 Dark angels with chainswords running at them under heavy covering fire :DI hear you, the big reason people happy with this is that it gives the sergeant options for thunder hammers which increases the threat value of assault intercessors a ton.

That I agree with. I also hope/assume they also open power swords now and I can go ahead with my Emperor's Spears plans.

I wonder if the new Primaris techmarine can crew a thudgun or if that's still off limits for them?
I like how the assault intercessor box basically replaces all the weapon options from the chapter upgrade packs. I think it's very very likely that power swords are an option.
That being said, it's a pet peeve and all but I really don't like the indomitus bracers identifying that they're from that crusade, and I don't like how the MPK assault intercessors have the larger protuding shoulder pad. I just like having uniformity in my army at some points, oh well.
Doubt it for the thudgun.
I can see a small miniwave for like a ten box sprue of intercessor bodies for blood angels, dark angels, and wolves or something like that.
tbh of the the 9 "original" chapters. I think the Raven Guard and Imp fists made out like bandits, while the blood angels, dark angels, and space wolves have really suffered a thematic hit.
I've got my handy new rotary tool just itching for a new job anyway :DOh, right. Those bracers are meeting a file for sure when I get my guys.
Looks like a loincloth for a dread to me, or a weapon pennantI'm wondering why my fiancee is still not killing me with all the space I took on the coffee table... we really need to move so I can have a hobby room.
Can someone tell me what this flag is ? I know purity seals and that you're supposed to write the name of the almost-dead marine on the cloth attached to the sarcophagus, but I never saw one of those flags before:
I genuinely thought there was a new Tau model for a second when they started that Forge World video lolTau and GSC say hi! I don't think I have a viable army for either at the moment. My friends are basically unable to make lists that are soft enough for them.
Am I supposed to write something on it ? One of the venerable dreadnought variants in the build guide shows it attached to the side of the "shoulder" of the dreadnought.

You don't have to- you can do whatever you like!Am I supposed to write something on it ? One of the venerable dreadnought variants in the build guide shows it attached to the side of the "shoulder" of the dreadnought.
I'm not liking it here either. I think the big guns at the back look great, but a third Marine's head poking out looks unnecessary.
Yeah they mentioned on the stream it'll be easy to combine the kits for different poses etc too.Looks like you will be able to use the assault intercessors box to make decent normal Intercessor Sergeant with the hand flamer, power hammer etc parts
Oh nooooooooo

It's funny how they keep dropping the ball on these Primaris vehicle models.
Given we've had no Stormcast box released then hopefully this portends good things.well, blood angels do need proper assault marines!
I posted it before but GW is definitely telling us something here.
Though there are blatant design flaws, these new speeders actually look cool compared to the Repulsors and ATV. Remove the guy on the top turret and I can forgive all the nitpicks. I know people don't like the third marine but I say he's operating the weapons or soemthing.
the Captain looks cool.but I really wish that sword wasn't placed where it was.
The Heavy Intercessors and their new guns look absolutely awesome. Their new stats do not however.
S5 AP-2, 3 wound Boltguns, T5 3 wound troops? Sorry for the vulgarity but given how Marines are already dominating FUCK THAT.
That Nurgle model looks bad. I'm not a fan of the Nurgle models having an entirely different artstyle to every other model GW releases. I get that Nurgles has a theme but it looks so cartoony and stylised.
I think you're kinda being over afraid of the heavy intercessors right now (unless the point costs are a lot less then they're equivalent power cost). They're going to be around 28-30 points, have shitty transport options, and don't have sergeant options that that normal intercessors do.
I'll be honest I don't like the old indomitus terminator design (much prefer Tartaros and Cataphracti Terminator), and I think that's what hurting the Nurgle model here.
