What Mini-dex do you want?

[Asymmetrical Xeno]

With Codex Imperial Knights and Militarum Tempestus, Gw has finally dived into the whole "mini codex" idea. Which ones would you like to see? It seems these are primarily designed to be played as allies to existing armies, but can be used on their own in a fairly limited capacity.

I am outright going to say : Sslyth.

1) non-humanoid (which is really f'ing needed ffs)
2) fills the "lizardmen in space" niche (but isnt a straight boring port of the WHF version)
3) Adds another playable Xeno race.
4) Can ally with at least Dark Eldar (and perhaps a few others too)

They could probably release an infantry boxset that makes 3-5 models with it being a duel kit of course, plus a Sslyth specific vehicle kit (also a duel kit).

i'm sure there will be the usual splurge of squats/demiurg, genestealer cults, chaos guardsmen and exodite eldar, but would love to hear more original suggestions if you got em'

Codex: Death Company.

What we need is more Space Marines. BoLS did a really nice army of death version

1) Follows basic space marine models and stat lines so a quick and fairly cheap thing to do
2) Expands out the DC options already in C:BA
3) Allies: C:BA not Lamenters

Codex Squats

can be a small allied detachment for most armies
fills the space dwarf slot
adds more abhumans
squats were awesome

Sslyth tribe mini-dex would be great. Also Harlequins.

[Pendragon38]

+10 for squat mini dexs

[Eldar_Atog]

Harlequins would be my first choice. It wouldn't require much model wise. Perhaps a box for mimes and a kit that could be built as a solitaire/great harlequin.

Also, a supplement that focused on Altansar. That would be an interesting read.

Hrm... Yeah, there's plenty out there that could be buffed out. Here's what I'd like to see...

Codex: Slaanesh - filled with Noise Marines, Slaanesh Daemons, and war machines of Slaanesh
Codex: Tzeentch - Thousand Sons, Daemons of Change, etc.
Codex: Khorne - Berzerkers, Bloodletters, Juggernauts, etc.
Codex: Nurgle - Plague Marines, Great Unclean Ones, Plaguebearers, etc.
Codex: Harlequins - finally fill out the Harlequins with their own Jetbikes, their own Wraithlords, their own HQ's and troops and troupes and such!
Codex: Alien Mercenaries - Kroot, Vespid, Hrud, Sslyth, and a dozen other alien species could all fit into here in a variety of ragtag groups. It would probably end up being Codex: Kroot, with another Codex: Alien Mercs for everything else the way GW does their 2 pages of rules...
Codex: Night Lords
Codex: Word Bearers
Codex: Iron Warriors
Codex: Alpha Legion

Etc. etc. GW has a lot of room to slot in codexes for single units, or separate factions. Between mini-dexes and supplements, 6th edition is going to get very fat very fast.

[Mr.Pickelz]

Codex Speed Freakz

Bikerz as troops (without character to unlock)
squads of Dakkajets, battlewagons, etc...
Mechanized Ork units
combine "Waagh!" effect with Red Paint Job for movement shenanigans
could give a nightfighting style rule when enough units with "Exhaust Cloud" are on the table

[Tyrendian]

Deathwatch!

[GoffWarboss]

Genestealer Cults!
