The Curiously Specific Starter Set Poll

[Tangosolo]

The ones I want are the ones that (I think) are least likely to occur:

Chaos Marines vs. Inquisiton
Adeptus Sororitas vs. Grey Knights
Imperial Guard vs. Chaos Cultists
Preheresy: Iron Hands vs. Emperor's Children
Preheresy: Mechanicus vs. Iron Warriors

On a side note, has there ever been a starter box that didn't have marines of some kind?

[Darren Richardson]

None of the poll suggestions....

My Preferance would be Adaptus Sortias VS Genestealer Hybrid Cult!

Both need plastic figures and soon....

Anything with Orks in it is something I consider buying. With the new plastics helping to update their range, Orks in a starter set can't be a wrong decision. Maybe not the best decision as I'm sure other armies would like their spot in the front, but with Orks you have a dedicated fans and who doesn't want more Orks? Even models you may not want give you the ability to make other things. You can take a Deff-Dread and pop that sucker on a Trukk and turn it into a Battlewagon. The interchangeability of the bits means that what ever you buy, you can use, and to hilarious effect...
Take for instance the Deff-Dread/Killa Kan's arm guns. Put those on top of an ork vehicle and it isn't far-fecthed to think that a Mek wanted to make a Dakka with a Choppa, or a Choppa with Dakka, or that it would be funny to have the ability to smash someone why shooting them...

The idea of HH starter kits does sound intriguing, but I can hear the wailing of xenos players everywhere with that thought.

I'm starting to think personally that this so called 7th Ed might actually be a Horus Heresy Box set, based on the facts that the HH squads are selling INSANELY well at present, the novels have won how many awards? and have had how many reprints? The re-issuing of the Visons book, but most of all, the news that we might have a Mechanicus listing in the new Knights codex, plus the fact the Knights HAVE been made and featured during the HH.....

I strongly believe GW may have finally taking it's foot from up it's *** and might be releasing a boxed game and ruleset finally, afterall why issue a new ruleset well off of the normal release squenaces and why fold in rules from a number of supplements so soon?

Why? Because it could be "Not 7th Ed" after all....

All of those armies have rules and units, except the warmachine one obviously, and if you mean half of them need a 6th edition Codex, well, more than half do, with one more out in the next few months, and thats if you don't count GK and Necrons, even though they've both been written with 6th edition rules in mind

No. I mean actual army books. At this point the best I could hope for is an eCodex or supplement. I'm talking Legions of the Damned (all we got were cultists...), [still waiting on those] Legion-specific books for all Loyalist and Traitor legions, and for someone to actually give a damn about writing an actual Inquisition codex and NOT copy-pasting bits and pieces from the Grey Knights codex.

I'm hopeful to see a Mechanicum eCodex out before the year is up, but I'll believe it when I see it (not to mention there will liekly be one for 30K before 40K).

had to vote sisters, Just because I want plastics for them that much

[Veteran Sergeant]

Any of those options that don't include Space Marines are a pipe dream, lol.
