Imperial Guard Rumor Roundup

[Darren Richardson]

By the way, did anyone else notice that the Gaunt's Ghosts models popped up under the Troop Section for the shop page on the GW website? *raises eyebrows suggestively*

Interesting the Uk site has all the following regiments listed....

• Cadian
• Catachan
• Vostroyan
• Mordian Iron Guard
• Valhallan
• Steel Legion
• Tallarn
• Colonel Schaeffer's Last Chancers
• Gaunt's Ghosts

ALL of these classic miniature ranges are in the Troops section and I think the only one's missing (please correct me if I'm wrong) are the Pretorians (you know the British Zula era solider ones)...

Interesting....

Those haven't existed in years.

Tempestus screams Storm-troopers to me, I reckon it's a storm trooper mini-dex and IG will be later.

Problem is box covers are fake.

The 'magic bus' look more like something the Orks would bring to the battlefield, and it would look sexier with wheels. For the vet\st I need a closer picture to give a verdict.

Interesting, 72 pages must mean its a suppliment and not a full codex. Cant wait for them to reveal more on this!

You do realize that the new Codex: Imperial Knights was its own codex at only 64 pages. For all we know, we could be seeing *5* codicies for the Imperial Guard coming out, one for each Segmentum.

Or we get the main codex and then five supplements, one for each Segmentum.

I don't know if I love that idea or am horrified by it.

Codex: Ratlings! An entire army of snipers that is sure to put the fear of Hobbitses into a Riptide heavy list.

More seriously I'm going to say it's a book with an emphasis on the soldiers produced by the Schola Progenium and or other auixlary forces to the Imperial Guard. Maybe even something about PDF forces.

AS for supplements for the Guard itself I could see them doing a few for the non cadian model ranges. One each for Vostroyans, Steel Legion, Attilans, etc, etc. that would give them back some of the flavor they had under the old doctrines system. Though hopefully a bit more capable of producing a distinct but still useable force than doctrines ended up being.

Pretty much my own reaction as well.

Those new "Scions"/StormTroopers are nice. Very nice. In fact, they're just as nice as that truck is gumpy.
