From Darnoks Birdy on Warseer:

Dark angels are 'getting something very exciting for 2-3 months time'

You never know, it might be a good WD codex?

I would guess that this is most likely the starter set that is expected beginning of September (almost 3 months away) which has been rumoured to contain either dark angels specific models or (more likely IMHO) marines painted as dark angels instead of ultramarines this time.

if you include deathwing, I think you might see more than 5 dark angels players.

Harry recently heard that DA will likely be between CSM and Tau, but 2-3 months is a bit soon for that. I'm guessing Starter for now, with a DA book in say January/Feb.

I'm wondering why Darnok bothered mentioning it when we've already had it from numerous sources that the starter set is DA. It didn't occur to me that was what he was referring too because we already knew.:rolleyes:

Didn't the Fantasy 8th starter come with a couple of additional models for each side, characters that were sold separately? Maybe something similar?

They had the Prince on foot and the Skaven second in command IIRC.

Possibly starter set, w/ Belail and Cypher as add-ons?? (I haven't heard anything, just hoping and praying.)

Who knows??

Maybe the Starter Set, maybe not...

Maybe the new official codex, maybe a WD one...

WeŽll have to wait and see

The Captain in the starter is supposed to be suitable to represent Belial, so I doubt an additional Belial model.

The exciting thing is being merged into Codex: Space Marines where they belong. ;)

Codex: Space marines 2012, 2000 pages long, 100 pages of unit entries alone, Just the way it should be.

With any luck, Dark Angels will be part of Codex Space Marines. Along with the rest of those other guys, who are Space Marines. Lump them all in one book, and go back to pamphlet format via digital downloads. Install a printer in the Games Workshop Store.

And with any luck: A better way of modifying army rules than Combat Tactics/ Chapter Tactics replacements.

From a sales standpoint alone, this is not going to happen matey.

Died a little... Do you remember what happened to the sisters of battle.

The unforgiven are about to become so lame. We better get a codex equal to the freaking wolves...

What mostly interests me about new codex releases is the new models to accompany them. I am a bit worried if the DA only get a WD codex the they will get the same treatment as sisters and get sweet F A in the model range.

I know the rumours about the next starter set, but until I see it I expect the contents will be generic marines painted as DA.

They'll probably get a new upgrade box that costs twice as much for half the amount of product! #yay!!!!

i want something new. im really hoping the dark angels dont get the shaft with a wd codex or a copied tactic from other chapters.

things i want to be a bigger part;
deathwing
ravenwing
librarians
chaplains

now most of you might be like "deathwing and ravenwing are already big parts..." not really... 2-3 units... a special bike/speeder and a termie commander.

chaplains and librarians are the most important for me (although i could live with one)

chplains need to awesome for the DA... all those secrets...

I could see Chaplains getting the necron royal court/wolf guard/seer council treatment, fieldable as a unit or attached to squads.

Anything less and the Blood Angels will have already covered it.


Still stand by my original thought that this is about the starter set and not a new dex this year. Otherwise chaos won't make it into the schedule :(

Ever thought that both romours might be true? What if the DA became the posterboys for the CSM? With the new fluff and background about the SM and the Empire, why couldn't they fall even further?

I'm looking forward to seeing the books and the new core game then, and only then will we know...
