There will be a booklet containing how the rules revamp will effect current codexes (all of them) and will contain the rules for all "basic" units.(the example given to me was that the guard entry will will have the rules for the leman russ but will have "see codex imperial guard" under the baneblade and demolisher listings.All units will be listed but the rules that don't come free will just say "see codex ______" below it's title.this is to encourage people to start small armies aside from their main one who would otherwise put it off.This is kind of like how the 3rd book had listings)
Some forgeworld tech will be recognized again like how the vanquisher was in the 3rd codex.
Also-
All the land raider variants will be listed and there will be a Armored company-type list that will contain land raiders and terminators.Also terminators carry more weapons like plasma cannons and omit "gets hot" due to their suit. |
Pretty outlandish considering GW leaked the fact it would be SM & Orks months ago. Sorry there mate.
Some of it sounds true, but given we're just now seeing GS concept models, DE are about a year off, minimum.
