View Full Version : Questions of What is to Come sonofslaanesh March 18th, 2007, 19:38 Going against the urging at the top of my screen, I think I'll just ask my questions without reading prior ones. I'm just in a bit of a rush like that. Any help with these is appreciated:
1. GW is releasing new Dark Angels, are they also going to redo Blood Angels? That would make me week for sure, if not my month.
2. I've heard GW won't be doing Dark Elves for while, and probably not before Skaven and VC, but is there any information on what they'll be working on specificly as of yet? (Dark Elves need so much)
3. If Dark Elves are redone last in the list, like after Skaven, VC, and HE, what do you think the schedule for release will be? Like, 2010?
Thanks for any and all answers, and sorry for not reading other posts, I just needed to know now. omegoku March 19th, 2007, 03:07 You really should search but..
1. Yes, at some point in the future
2. They will be working on Dark Elves rules I assume, anybodys guess
3. Only GW knows, and even they probably don't.. lets hope for next year Morkai March 19th, 2007, 03:24 This I can answer for sure. While the blood angels will not be getting a new codex for a while yet, they will be getting a serious update through White dwarf. I can't tell you when exactly but I do know full and appropriate codex rules and such will be presented. The codex itself is a while off, as there are a collection of more pressing armies to publish (Orks, DE ect).
As for the dark elves question I sadly have no answer. Dr Snuggles March 19th, 2007, 12:11 blood angels wont be getting a new dex for at least a year, but they their list is being tweaked in june & july's issues of white dwarf, the only thing i know for certain on the rules is that the death company now have rending.
as for dark elves, ive no idea, high elves and VC are next thats all i know The Daywalker March 20th, 2007, 03:35 Snuggles where did you hear that information? I think they DC would be completly broken if they got rending. Now you can get 6 squads of scouts and just DC it up with them and get rending, fnp monsters. Oh and if you get the vet serg with the scouts u have p fists. I highly doubt that.
But to answer your question, from the other posts it says the BA are gonna get a rules update.
Dont really know much about fantasy so that leaves it for someone else to answer. The_Omnissiah March 20th, 2007, 07:12 If they redo blood angels before DE or Orks, i'll...i'll...do something I most likely will regret...
Anywho, aboot the Fantasy Battle stuff, I think they already have new rules being beta-tested so to speak, with the VC. I think they might be coming out before the DEs. But it's anybodies guess as to when they will release it, or even tell us.
Cheers

i was at my local and the manager was on the phone to the dude who wrote the upcoming article, so yea, they now have rending :O and i already think there broken so god only knows what else they have instore Karmoon March 20th, 2007, 18:19 Vampire counts/40K chaos then 40K orks isn't it? Rork March 20th, 2007, 18:20 Why would they have rending? Super-pointy chainswords? That's a justification I'm going to love reading...

That really depends on how else they change. If they lose their free power fists and/or feel no pain (amongst other things) then rending attacks wouldn't be so bad. I don't think we can simply say "they're adding rending!!11!!!!1!" without knowing what they're taking away.
The main issue with death company now is that they're so cheap for all their abilities. Karmoon March 20th, 2007, 18:37 The main issue with death company now is that they're so cheap for all their abilities.
They've done it before - harlequins for Eldar, so I imagine they can easily do it again.
Maybe they're going to give every race an uber unit like that. number6 March 20th, 2007, 20:43 They've done it before - harlequins for Eldar, so I imagine they can easily do it again.

So far, from the standpoint of the new 4th ed codexes, I would only categorize Eldar Harlequins as a "too-cheap-uber-unit". I really REALLY hope that they're the last of it.
And what is it with rending anyway? Are people tired of rolling armour saves or something? It's starting to show up everywhere nowadays.... | |
