    Word; I just mean, If lovers gonna love, then all that us haters can hope for is that they have more flavors to do it with. This codex seems to force a greater degree of difference from normal...

    First Game on the new codex

    Over at /tg Anonymous delivered a codex from black box scans/cellphone pics (still somewhat incomplete, but playable). I spent the better part of the beginning of the week assembling foot assault...

    ...Vehicle molds

    If everything we hear about what it costs GW to make a new vehicle mold is true ($10,000+ for the mold alone) I think they'd want to sell it to everybody. If this Tantalus Lander thing is for real,...

    BIG Update....

    This is from the Bolter and Chainsword list.

    I think we have some clarity here. It's not going to be a Land Raider variant (at least not for sure). It just might be a bit of linguistic garbling,...

    Winged squads etc.

    I've been mulling over what we can logically garner from the Exalted Assault squad and about what to expect. Some folks are reacting to their description negatively, thinking it will be a unit of...

    Don't worry yet.

    There's a good deal of it that is my own conjecture, and another good deal of it that's based on shaky rumors from elsewhere. I want to be really clear--there's a mix of hypotheses, educated...

    I stand out-known.

    I had a feeling that there would be something in the BG that would argue against my hypothesis. There's always a fair amount of little retcon in each new codex, usually inoffensive stuff, so I...

    A Theory, that's probably cropped up before, and won't be popular.

    So I know this won't be a popular one but with just about anyone. Yet what if the rumors meshed up correctly that Sisters might show up in some kind of Templars/Ecclesiarchy codex?

    This would...

    If you have cover between you and your foe, you always get a save (except w/flamers, sterguard, LRE, Colossi)--even if the template center lands over your hedge. In the case of missile launchers,...

    Applause for JWolf

    Your argument opens and shuts the case, applause.

    I just formulated a similar argument about the wounds from the mawloc hole and how, in the absence of any sentence that says otherwise, cover...

    The Mawloc Hole and 'Logic'

    Fact: nothing ignores cover saves except assault, flamers, Sternguard ammo, colossi, and LREs. Each of these has its own explicit sentence stating thus. All three have an explicit rule that states...

    Thank you for confirming for us that the translation from the leaked german appears to be correct. Further, the confirmation on the cost of the Carnifex is a puzzlement--How many wounds does it have...

    This basically is a RAW v. RAI argument.

  23. The imperium of man is falling apart
