Chaos / Daemon Rumors!

Posted by Loken at 6/07/2012 07:59:00 AM

Well, here are more rumors from reliable sources on Warseer and Dakka.

From TheDarkGeneral on Warseer

According to my contacts, we're about 2 months away from a Chaos Invasion, so let the galaxy tremble!!!

You won't need special characters to unlock Legion Armies, however some of them will make certain unit(s) much better. The flexibility of taking a "regular" Chaos Lord, or Sorcerer, or Daemon Prince, OR Aspiring Champion(s) will still be there, which of course will be able to lead your Night Lords or World Eaters or Iron Warriors.

And (a bit older but worth reporting)

So basically, all the Legions will buy the same boxed set for the majority of their models, but to make them Legion specific, separate sprues will be sold which will include shoulder pads, heads, banners, few weapons, etc. Terminators will also get separate sprues made available to them to become Legion specific.

From Whitehat on Dakka

June 30 is 6th Ed
August is Daemons wave (plastic troops, last two boxes)
DA Early next year
Apart from CSM, no more codexes/Armybooks this year

As always, these are rumors, but generally seem to agree with what is out there and TheDarkGeneral is a good source.

Great Escape said...: Tantalizing stuff. Particularly the Special Characters vs. Generics stuff. Probably will bring them in line with many existing codicies--I'm thinking SM here: add Pedro, get Sternguard as scoring. Seems to fit their notion.

I'm not a big fan of the special characters, but it seems to be the direction things are moving in. Exhibit: Necrons.

Will be good to see, as if nothing else it should get some more Chaos on the tables--they're a huge rarity around here.
