If Forgeworld are making books on the Heresy there will be all kinds of goodies coming out for our favourite 9 Legions. Maybe we should start a new thread rather than discussing it further as its some what off topic and we've already had two Chaos Rumour threads shut down!

Autumn 2012 could be expensive for Chaos fans!

I do hope they make Abaddon silly hard again. I know the guy is nails now but his recent nerf to AP3 in assault (for a Daemon Sword that can rend reality apart :facepalm: ) is a kick in the teeth for what should be 40k's hardest character.
I should point out at this point that my main opponent plays Black Legion and wishing for my arch nemesis to get better is I admit a little dumb.

I imagine he'll be the usual Close Combat Monster but some with some force buffs, probably including the ability to take all cult units as troops.

[Draconis]

Rumors are pointing at him being AP 2 and striking at I

[Nkari]

his daemonsword is ap2.. his lightning claw is ap3.. perhaps ? :P

[Scammel]

As much as I think the whole 'AP3 = MASSIVE NERF' thing is often blown out of proportion, if there's a single weapon in 40k that deserves to be AP2 it's the one favoured by flippin' Horus himself.

[Azariah Kyras]

im sure they are gonna keep it as it was before which was a buff instead of an actual weapon for the "talon of Horus", allowing you to reroll wounds.

I really dont see the point in him having a lightning claw profile when he has a deamon weapon that is ap2 and strikes at I.

[Kaldanesh]

This. As much as i am tired of the whining about which characters have AP2 vs. AP3, the Warmaster's weapon should cerainly be AP2. I imagine it will be AP2 with shred and possibly fleshbane.

[samiens]

The Warmaster did have a mace as well

(At least nowadays, when I started he had twin Lightning Claws grumble grumble)

[Excessus]

aaaah, I still remember that diorama...

[Kaldanesh]

Ah yes I remember those days as well. Im really looking forward to all the new updates to wargear and the other existing characters. I would not be surprised as Wattle pointed out that there is plenty more we haven't seen. From what we've read thus far, I imagine there are plenty more cool characterful additions and any of these are enough to breathe new life into the stripped down book we had last edition. Literally counting the days...

[samiens]

It, and the artwork, are still on show in Warhammer World and I never fail to take the time to admire it in all its (know rather small) glory

[Azariah Kyras]

hey heres something to think about, now ik it may get shot down having heard rumors that may make it seem meaningless or if it has been brought up i am sry in advance but just take a moment to think about it

when looking at the decimators new rules alot of things seem to show what could appear and what most likely will be rules for daemon engines e.g. "unholy vigor, daemon, daemonic possession and of course dedications for Gods" < same goes for the "infernal engine" for such machines as the Chaos Land raiders

now am i wrong in believing that these will be rules for the upcoming daemon engines as it would make alot of sense and more so would clarify things such as the source seeing rules such as these

5+ invulnerable/daemon
It will not die/dedication of nurgle or mistaken for unholy vigor (hoping for unholy vigor )
ignore shaken and stunned - eating something = repair/daemonic possession < revamped in codex
reroll wounds and armour pen/ ? < new addition for codex

either way im happy with the result as both options look mighty delicious

do remember this is what i am thinking, if it has been said i am sry

[Charax]

Yes It Will Not Die, and Daemon have been rumoured for daemon engines (not just Nurgle ones). Personally if that's the case I'm looking forward to them, nothing like a regenerating siege engine to scare the pants off your opponents

[Xandros]

It would be nice to have Abaddon have distinct weapons again. Merely general rules are uninteresting leaving no choices or distinctions. Also, his bolter kinda sucks atm. Make it fire daemon bolts... as in apocalypse... just because.

I agree that would be cool. Didn't he autokill 1 model with Drachn'yen previously? I could see him getting rules to represent such. Inferno bolts or some daemonic equivalent for the combi_bolter on the Talon also seems plausible.

And the Emperor wore white! After Labor Day! (Because he's the Emperor and he can)

[TheDungen]

White? the diorama was black and white. At least the original, but maybee you mean the color version that was done a few years later? But didnt the emperor have gold armour in that? (and like a burning sword or something ,a much lesser work if you ask me)


oh wait yeah thats when he gets the mace. That poster was included in the 300th issue of WD if anyone wonders (the re rendition in colour)
