Astra Militarum Heroes Return!
So, those of you who have purchased the new Codex: Astra Militarum will notice the loss of most of the old imperial guard officers, especially those without models, but some like al'Rahem, Chenkov, and even Marbo. Well, I've been told by a pretty darn reliable birdy that some supplements are in the works. I am not sure which ones will return, but I have been informed that something along the lines of codex: catachans is in the works. The big releases with these supplements is merely a rerelease of temporarily discontinued characters, but no new boxed sets. Oh, and aside from remaining legal due to forgeworld, don't look for a Medusa or bombard, not gonna happen.

With Orks coming up soon I would bet on Steel Legion.

I can see a whole host of mini-dex and formations coming out for C:AM, not just Cadians, Catachans, Mordian etc, but also formations I'd expect a tank company, hellhound squadron, Basilisks etc....they could fill this year with guard alone!

Genestealer cult tie in with limited guard options. PLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! !!!!!!!!

Did anyone doubt it? But the truly interesting piece there is some 'remaining legal' and forgeworld. What does this mean?

It means what it says. That Medusas and Bombards may still be legal due to Imperial Armour and having Forgeworld models, but that GW has no plans to put them back in the main codex.

With the joke of a codex Militarum Tempestus or w/e ew supplements need to be frigging awesome for me to even consider buying one..

I welcome any and all variety in my chosen hobby.

Ah I re-read makes sense now.

Man I hope its supplement Savlar Chem-dogs.

Catachan and the other regiments of renown are more than well enough covered already in the main codex.

And theres already tonnes of background information on them so more on the unknown savlar chem-dogs, would be good.

And the last guard codex was over powered anyway and you only ever saw overpowered lists run with it therefore it serves them right.



I think I hit all the bases with that one?


seriously though, I'd fully expect a catachan or vostroyan supplement, but I wouldnt expect many or any special characters in it. and certainly not new units
