    From [URL="http://natfka.blogspot.se/2013/10/november-release-clan-raukaan-iron.html"]here[/URL]:
    Clan Raukaan: A Codex Space Marines Supplement is confirmed now for a November release, as information from the November White Dwarf is just now hitting.

    -Iron Hands companies are named after the clans of Medusa, and Clan Raukaan is the largest of these.
    -Battles vs chapters arch rival- The Slaanesh Prince the Saphire King

    Clan Raukaan is the second supplement for Codex: Space Marines, following on from Sentinels of Terra last month. The main focus of the book is the 3rd Company of the Iron Hands, but this is also by far the most comprehensive look at the background of the whole Chapter we’ve made yet, covering their 10,000 year history of battle in the Emperor’s name.

    The Iron Hands are famous for two things: their reliance on machines, and the fact their Primarch lost his head in the heat of battle (literally and figuratively).
    The new rules in the supplement represent both, with alternate modes of army selection allowing you to call on the armored might of Clan Raukaan, and Warlord Traits that mean your commander either embraces his Primarch’s legacy of battle fury, or has learned from his mistakes, and approaches battle with a cold, murderous logic. There’s also an impressive new arsenal of relics, fit for the champions of Medusa.

    One of our favorite parts of the book is the Echoes of War section. These missions allow you to recreate famous battles from Clan Raukaan’s history.
    One in particular caught our eye - Ambush on Skarvus – where the Iron Hands take on their ancestral foes: the Emperor’s Children. What’s particularly cool about this mission is how the artwork and photography accompanying it really capture the bitter struggle between these hated foes.

    You’ll be able to pre-order your copy of Clan Raukaan this Saturday, both as an interactive edition for Apple iBooks, and an eBook Edition for your phone, tablet, eReader and computer.

    Ask not the EldarGal a question, for she will give you three answers, all of which are puns and terrifying to know. Back off man, I'm a feminist. Ia! Ia! Gloppal Snode!

    I don't even collect them, and even I find it very annoying.

    Aggreed - IH deserve their own special character. I'm not sure Clan Raukaan has the dudes for that though (at least according to Wrath of Iron)... Clan Commander Rauth is pretty much a generic Iron Hands veteran (=not much left of his humanity) that doesn't even have much in the way of special equipment... Iron Father Khaatir on the other hand I could see, with his pair o' claws and inbuilt flamers... problem is, he died on Shardenus... and beyond that there really isn't anyone special in the Clan...

    No Primarch, no Special Characters.

    (yes, I'm just being daft)

    One thing to note, Space Marines are the 1st codex to get more than one supplement.

    Did you ever think it would, I'm amazed myself. Happily so I admit.
