Has bits to allow Thousand Sons version

[Asymmetrical Xeno]

No Thousand Sons? I think that's that would be the thing to get me into Chaos Marines. Sorcerer sounds cool though.

[StingrayP226]

Says has bits to allow Thousand Sons version... granted I bet that means 5 troops for $50 due to all the extra pieces.

This is a rumor I hope is real, but I will likely disappointed as the Eldar rumors said plastic aspect warriors and they are still stuck with finecast. Granted if the rumors are false and the release never comes or is meh it will help me resist buying anything 40K.

If true, the only comes with an oval base may be the thing that finally causes WFB players heads to explode.

[Chapter Master Jake]

I can't wait to see more about this! Very exciting! Now we can be sure that Nurgle and Slaanesh will get some Daemonkin love. :D

[Ravingbantha]

I hope it's not a copy paste for the Khorne book, Tzeentch already has a field day with summoning. I'd like to see something that deals with the 'change' side of things, mutation points that could be used on friend and foe alike.

Please, come on 40kgamer, you know that there are a bunch of "players" out there that will go on and on about how it was a good thing, and never mind that they said they didnt believe such silly rumours 2 months ago

It likely won't use that kind of rule. I think they threw it into the Khorne book, at least the summoning part of it, in order to cover for a pure Khorne army having no way to summon in other Daemons, which wouldn't be an issue for Tzeentch.

Sad but true.

The Khorne book doesn't really mention World Eaters so I'd guess that the Tzeentch book doesn't make it a Thousands Sons + Tzeentch daemons.

[Houghten]

It does heavily feature Bersekers, though. Rubricae are the Tzeentch equivalent.

[Mr Mystery]

Does anyone know if 'Birds in the Trees' is a single rumour monger, or a general term used to anonymously report stuff?

Because the rumours themselves rarely prove all that accurate, so I'm wondering if it's a single goon making stuff up, or if the varied sources explain much of that.
