My major predictions:

Some characters (tyranid/chaos/others?) may get rules to avoid challenges, or abuse them in other ways. Given that this is one of the big rule additions, I think this is...

Yes, this is how VPs work in the kill-point-esque mission. Same as before.

Unfortunately, I believe you've answered your own question. As far as I know, the only IA unit that is approved for IG armies is Tauros squadrons, since that's the only one listed as such in IA:A2.

Not to mention Sammael in his Land Speeder. I know the book mentions vehicle characters in the warlord section, but it would be great to know how this works, exactly.

My other thought was to take a SM librarian and take Null Zone. I know he would be a huge fire magnet, but for the couple turns he survived, he would help me beat a lot of invul saves. The downside:...

I'm glad to say that my Psyker Battle Squad is even better now in conjunction with a Primaris Psyker and Psychic Shriek. I love the new utility that the BRB powers give psykers against a variety of...

Tynskel is right, and new rumors have it that Forge World stuff will be 40k official "for realz this time!" very soon. So we might be seeing a lot of new AA and fliers available for use very soon. It...

IG see your air superiority, and raise you the best anti air currently in any army. A hydra, vendetta or quad gun emplacement will likely kill a flyer every turn each. I anticipate some furious...

Man, if I had a nickel for every time this question had been asked in the last few days... well, I'd probably have a couple bucks. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it's been asked so much,...

Yes, yes, everyone has either:

A) Noticed this and realized that they are putting in the option for future introduction.

B) Tried to argue that "Every missile launcher gets them automatically!"...

From what I can tell, there is no other restriction. Not that I noticed, anyway. So yeah, this technically should be cool.

This is, in my opinion, one of the most brilliant moves by GW in this new rulebook, from a business standpoint (allies and fortifications being the big ones). I am of course, referring to the...

How about bagels? Anyone? Anyone? Too late?

Man, that would have been my first tournament... Just started, and the only tourny my FLGS (which focuses more on heroclix) holds every year was the first round of 'Ard Boyz. And I just finished up...

Bean,

I find this discussion fascinating. Would you perhaps be able to provide some 40k specific anecdotes of people applying advice from the AoW in a way that was harmful to them? This seems to...

I'm waiting for the new codex to start my Tau army. Partly because I think they're going to be awesome, and partly because I think the new models are going to be awesome.

Are you not supporting Games Workshop so that they can continue to produce this neckbearded wackjob's favorite game? Honestly, I think hobbyists are great, if only because I suck at painting.

My friend takes a cyclone missile launcher in every squad. They're just too good not to, really.

I pointed this out to my friend, and he's already planning on making his own setup. Granted, it won't be nearly as pretty as these, but it won't cost us several hundred dollars to make a 4x4 table...

You make a good case for getting some. Still, I don't think I will be making any more purchases until 6th hits. Still, if I could find some on the cheap, I might grab one or two.

Well, assuming the new X-wing game comes out soon, I'll buy some minis for that. Then buy the last few pieces for my IG army, then either start Necrons, or save it for when Tau or Eldar come out.

Like some others, I have lurked and loved the site and the boards for a while now (started playing in October), and now had an incentive to join! (To be honest, I didn't know BolS had a forum until...

This is why I hate comp scores! Why should you be docked for taking Marbo? You know, I run a part Cadian veterans/Command Squad, part Catachan powerblob plus Marbo,with a Tallarn tank commander...

Chimeras are great, but lets be honest, Vendettas are amazing. Everything everybody says about them? All pretty much true. They are just that good.

I wonder if the presence of these models will make it a tougher decision for Fantasy Flight to do a ground combat miniature game in the vein of 40k? Although, assuming FFG is going to do such a game,...
