Hello again everyone !!

While the marines look very cool in their new shiny armors (and genes) but in my heart (or belly) the nurgle side is CRAZY GOOD !!

Composition :
7 plagues marines
1 Foetid Bloat-drone
20 Poxwalkers (oops)
1 Lord of Contagion
1 Noxious Blightbringer
1 Malignant Plaguecaster

All these model are stunning, the amount of details and personnification is unprecedented !!
Only cons is that the BlightBringer look a lot like his AOS counterpart.

The poxywalkers are the big winners for me it make me want to paint them right now! !!!

hello again :

Space marines side is composed of

2x5 intercessor
1x5 Hellblaster with plasma weapon
1x3 Inceptor squad (jump pack)
1 Primaris with ps
1 Primaris lt with "Auto Bolt rifle"
1 Primaris lt Ancient
1 Captain in Gravis Armour

The new terminator armor look very cool, with Power fist and bolter mixed together.
The primaris ancient is just a name ? or it's an old marines upgraded ?

Hello everyone !!

GW announced the release date it's 17 june ;)

June 3rd – mark your calendars folks, because that’s the day you’ll be able to pre-order your copy of the new edition of Warhammer 40,000. (15 days pre order)

we think that the models alone make this the best Warhammer 40,000 box set ever made.

you get two armies of brand new miniatures,

the full hardback Warhammer 40,000 book

dice and range rulers

A complete set of datasheets to field both these Death Guard

Primaris Space Marines

the book

You’ll also find a host of new background information on the two forces and on the Plague Wars being fought in Ultramar.

This 280-page, hardback tome is included in the Dark Imperium box and is also available separately.

contains an extensive exploration of the Warhammer 40,000 setting

This includes some pretty major advancements in the story for every faction in the galaxy

arrival of the Great Rift, the rise of Chaos, and the launching of the Indomitus Crusade.

Alongside the core rules for the game, there are missions, full guidelines for the 3 ways to play (open, narrative and matched)

advanced rules to represent the myriad war zones of the far future, including all the rules you need to play games of Cities of Death, Planetstrike, Stronghold Assault and Death from the Skies.

the core rules for Warhammer 40,000 will be available for free! You’ll be able to download the Battle Primer PDF on games-workshop.com and warhammer40000.com from June 17th.

THE CODEX

these five softback Index books provide rules for every single Warhammer 40,000 Citadel Miniature we sell

They are broken down into themed books:

2 for the Imperium, 1 for the forces of Chaos, and 2 for the xenos races of the galaxy.

To start gaming with your existing army, you just need the box set or the Warhammer 40,000 book and whichever Index book has their datasheets and you’re good to go.

Oh, and don’t worry, this doesn’t mean Orks and Tyranids are now on the same side, it just means they share a book for the moment. In the future, they’ll get their own dedicated codexes.

Goodies

These include new Tactical Objective cards

Command Dice,

Wound Trackers,

most thematic set of Warhammer 40,000 objective markers we’ve ever made, including a mini-supply drop pod and a xenos bio-containment tank.

a flexible Combat Gauge WOAAAAA

Lastly a novel

Hello everyone !!

GW trying to keep up the hype !!

Urban Combat !

These rules, like the Stronghold Assault rules we’ve seen already, are an optional add-on to theme your battles and add more variety to your games

Ruins : Their impact takes the form of bonuses for units with certain keywords, and limitations for others.

Infantry: They are also the only units that benefit from cover naturally, just for being in a ruin.

Cover in ruins : Other units (monsters, vehicles etc…) will need to actually be obscured to gain any bonus.

In Cities of Death games, these bonuses get even better – if a unit does not move, its cover bonus from being in a ruin is increased from a +1 to their Armour Save to +2

flying units will do very well in Cities of Death games, as they are able to leap from rooftop to rooftop easily.

Any Grenade thrown at a unit in ruins will always count as having rolled the maximum number of shots (6, in the case of a frag grenade) and can reroll to wound thanks to the “Fire in the Hole” mission rule.

New stratagems

One war zone where the narrative certainly calls for Cities of Death battles is Ultramar

we already saw the forces of the Traitor Legions launch their attack on the Ultramarines utopian* worlds.

Some interesting stuff with the terrain rules. It's easy to imagine that different type of terrain will interact differently with certain keywords.

Ps: The image is that a new terminator armor or it's the position ? (the blood angel )

Hello again !!

FW teaser: A Preview from Prospero

Scenic base for magnus + russ duel

Hello again !!

At last the preview stuff arrived !

AOS skirmish

0) The book :

Very small (40 pages) book for playing warbands in the deserted ShadeSpire.
Fluff: there are 10 pages of fluff about the Katophranes' old city and it's quite interesting.

I) Rules and Warbands

AOS rules + 3 rules of 1 + no summoning + one battleshock test per turn for the whole warband.
Customistion options: the General get to choose 1 of 6 Command aiblities and 1 to 6 artefacts (you can choose grand alliance artefacts too).

Allegiance abilities: Only grand alliance ones.
Units: No 1" formation to respect, banner and musician work 6" around them (only to the same warscroll).

Warband creation :
choose starting renown (25 for campaign is advised)
- Same grand alliance
- 3 models min and 1 hero.
- Ignore min size of warscroll
- You can mix weapon options in a warscroll.
- Only one warscroll of each per warband
- Only one champion per warscroll
- no battalions.

2) Campaign:

The Campaign consist of six missions that are linked together.
The mission rules are really interesting and make the heart of the game. But it's also possible to use older battleplans
(i imagine Ritual could be fun !)

Post game sequence:
- Units lost are healed.
- You roll on the reward table:



- spend extra renown to increase the size of the warband.

3) Extra:

There are rules inside for skirmish matched play and inducement mechanisms for the underdog (in campaign mode).

That concludes our little preview of AOS skirmish.
To be honest at first I was a little sad that some elements where not included (Xp, individual progression of grunts, assist mechanism, cover rules ala shadow war). But Skirmish has the merit of being coherent with AoS and the game looks very fun and exciting.

That said it's not that limited, the warband composition is a full grand alliance and while death and destruction options are quite small, chaos and order should be able combo quite a bit ^^(hello star mace).

The Future: AOS skirmish could be a gold mine for white dwarf with the possibilities to expand the roster with new releases, make a new campaign in different realms, add more post game sequence rules etc

I included all the warscrolls available in the book but I had to redact most of the points values (sorry^^)

Morning everyone !!

A small answer by pete about gauss, while no detail we can assume that a wound or hit roll of 6+ get a bonus (-4 ap or something)

Hello everyone !!

Sharing the incredible Idea of Marc/cerxisde !

just started my Kharadron Overlords. Wanted to make a little booklet to hand to my enemy players in which they can find background, warscrolls and pictures of my army. The Red Corsairs of Barak Mhornar :) I finished the Admiral this week....

For more pictures visit https://www.instagram.com/cerxisde.

Great paint job on the admiral !
