[Necron2.0]

I wonder if the art department will catch hell for that mistake.

I also wonder if this box will become a collector's item. How often do they screw up a box like that?

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

I did not buy it alas, I have no love for Tau. :p
I was however tempted.

[Dru]

Are they not on the list for a re-sculpt according to the leaked list for next years releases ?

[fuzzbuket]

wow great sculpts when is that getting released?

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

They're going into mass production in the next couple of weeks. :D

[Deadlift]

Craft world Tau, I love it.

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

I do want to run a Covenant army from the Tau Codex. :p

[lattd]

Eldargal will kill you when she see's this :p

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

As is my intention. :D

[CouchViking]

I hate you. LOL.

[Bigred]

Oooo! Its like the "upside down airplane" stamp.

This only makes it MORE Valuable!!!

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

Do I get a BoLS article for this? :D

[RGilbert26]

Meh, doesn't beat the Leman Russ pictures that had the guns on the sponsons and hull upside down :p

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

Yes! That was awesome!

[miteyheroes]

So are they finally combining all the xenos races into one codex?

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

Yeah, Games Workshop decided that they wanted to make more Imperial forces so they just liquidated all of the Xenos armies to one book.

[Kawauso]

Sweet, I guess that means we'll finally get to see codex Adeptus Astra Telepathica.

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

There's even a Codex: Adeptus Administratum coming out, it's not very good, it keeps missing pages and is generally not very consistent.

[miteyheroes]

I hope we finally get more powered armoured codices. Saves less than that are stupid.

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

Anyone who isn't in the Imperium is stupid. :rolleyes:

[fuzzbuket]

Anyone who isn't in the Imperium is stupid. :rolleyes:

anyone that isnt me is stupid :P

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

Yeah, but you have a STUPID FONT. :p

[fuzzbuket]

yeah, but you have a stupid font. :p

no wai

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

And your spelling is atrocious. :p

[da_WaaaghMaster]

GW's taking this whole Eldar are Battle Brothers with the Tau thing a bit far.



There's even a Codex: Adeptus Administratum coming out, it's not very good, it keeps missing pages and is generally not very consistent.

So it's basically a standard codex?

Breaking News! Brand new Eldar unit sighted!

I hope you get a venereal disease for this stunning disappointment you've caused me this morning :P

[Wildcard]

I also heard a rumor from this GW mastermind who said that with the new round of FAQs coming, its safe to release a morsel for us 3+ wannabes:

- Next 6th ed FAQ will change the armor save to be 2d6, and adjusting armies, and weapons armor penetration capabilities to match.

- Marines still get their 3+ save, while generally this is the chart:
Pre FAQ saves After FAQ saves
6+ -> 11-12
5+ -> 9-10
4+ ->7-8
3+ -> 3
2+ -> 2

Only marines will be getting to keep their 3+ save, xenos that had 3+ will be considered as if they had 4+

I also heard that they felt that terminators and artificer armors wouldn't be worth their points if double 1s' would fail the test automatically.

As always, take with a grain of salt. But we should be seeing the new FAQs 1st september at the same time to the release of the boxed starter set.

I hate to say it, but this seems incredibly unlikely. It's one thing to shift stats and change the way weapons work in an FAQ, it's something else entirely to completely change one of the game's basic mechanics. If they wanted to 6th Edition to be the edition of 2d6 saves, I think they would have put that in the corebook.

And having to roll every save separately would suck.

Everyone is stupid. Period :D.

[spaceman91]

Given how this was troll thread, your comment seems to be made in earnest..

I'm pretty sure that this was a tongue-in-cheek type of rumor-mongering.

FINALLY! The best thing about 2nd ed was having Khornate Terminators with 2+ on 2d6 saves. They've brought back overwatch and armour penetration in close combat, it's definitely time to bring back 2d6 saves.

Not sure if serious.
