Thread: 6th starer set

    I would put Dark Angels in the Box as it looks like them on the spin of the White Dwarfs... as for the other Eldar is as good (hopefull) as any. Dout they would but two Power Armour armies in together, but you never know...

    Scorps because when Eldar want to be sneaky they put on heavy armour.

    I think Dark Angels is an interesting choice. What has made the past boxed sets so "sellable" are the generic Marines. If they slather them in Dark Angel iconography, or worse, emo hoodie bathrobes, they won't be as usable for other armies.

    I mean, ideally you'd hope for a mix up in started sets. IGuard vs Chaos would be incredibly cool. But then again, there isn't even a remote chance that GW releases a major boxed set without a shout out to Spess Mahreens. They aren't likely to take the gamble that pushing two entirely new starter armies would pay off as much as current incarnations. So it seems reasonable to believe the rumors of Dark Angels versus somebody. I think Eldar would be a better choice, to offer some differentiation, and that army really needs some love. But Chaos might be good too, especially if it works in cultists. Cultists and renegades have been missing from 40K for way too long. I know they had the IA books, but that doesn't really count since the costs for a renegade army from Forgeworld is atrocious.

    Since when are Chaos Marines not Space Marines? I know they aren't the Loyalists that Ultramarines/Black Templar/Dark Angels/Space Wolves/Blood Angels are, but that's still no reason to discount them.
    Are you a Wolf, a Sheep, or a Hound?
