Blood Angels Rumor Roundup

[Defenestratus]

Seems like the week after we could see terminators and a special character that sounds (hopefully not) like Dante...

Forgot to add that there's a new sculpt for a special character coming in plastic as well. From the description I received it sounds like Dante

DC terminators? Doesn't jive to me.. but what the heck, I didn't think the codex was coming this week either.

Blood angels terminator kit
Dual kit
First build is honour guard/ regular ba terminator with ornamentation similar to the da kit.

Second build is death company terminator with rather large chainfists and what appears to be souped up storm bolters/gatling cannons

What's this I heard about the Marines in this set having 32mm bases?

Supposedly its the new base size for Muhreens. If you look at the deathstorm model pics, the DC models are all on larger bases than the gaunts (which should be on the same size bases). Its noticeable enough not to be a photo dimensional issue.

I hope they don't change the size of bases for marines. I am still changing them from the plain plastic ones to ones with some kind of detail. I have 3 separate marine armies. That is around 400+ bases to change.

Anything else isn't printed yet so won't be out until late January as all books seem to be printed about 2 months before they are released.

Oy, my aching wallet.

It could be worse... I could play Skaven...

[woodenronin]

Sold out already! NOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Hey, guys...

Couldn't this "elite, death company-looking terminators" be the "blood brothers" we heard about last time around?

I mean think about it... if the fluff shifts such that defeating the Black Rage is a thing that happens rarely, but frequently enough that a given company can field a small, elite squad of such exemplars, why wouldn't you put them in the best armor you've got? And furthermore, it seems reasonable that you might continue to paint their armor black and leave death company-like markings on it - as we can see from Lemartes and Mephiston, defeating the Black Rage still leaves you a fairly asocial person, and the Blood Angels are ritualist/semi-spiritual enough that they might avoid such individuals as inauspicious and mark them as such.

I've got to tell you, the description of them sounds awesome. Terminators... with dual chainfists... and some kind of gatling storm bolter? Holy freaking cow. I want a squad right the hell now.

Hot damn. That's fast. Well done! I'll take twenty.

Another BA rumor from Faeit212 - this time about our new psychic powers... seems nice enough but its not exactly an equal of any divination power.

Here is some information on the primaris power for you. Its called Quickening. Its a blessing that effects either the psyker or another character within 12". The target gains fleet, d3 initiative and attacks. Roll once and apply both the result to both initiative and attacks.

Yeah... that's a disappointing power. Hopefully the rest are better. Or, you know, it's just a rumor...

F*ck these Blood Angels, I want to see Smaug!
