Faeit’s 40k Rumor Tarot: Daemonic Forces and Vile Witchery
Chaos Space Marines
Suffer the Witch: Every unit can negate a psychic power on a 6+. The power can also be buffed
Ecstasy: Allows the user to fire his weapon at his strength value
There are also some USR’s that are found with different units in the Chaos Marine codex, however without a 6th edition rulebook it is still unknown what they do. So these are in the chaos codex but apparently not described there. They would be listed in the new upcoming 6th edition rulebook.
Some usr names in the codex are “strike down”, “blind”, and “un-yeilding”.
There is a usr called “invisibility” that seems to have an affect on targeting a the unit and also effects assault.
Chaos Daemons Wave
Many sources are indicating that we will be seeing a wave of Chaos Daemons in a few months. While the sources below whisper August, a few are also saying possibly September.
Plague bearers (5x box) Plastic. Priced as pink horrors
Furies (5x box) plastic. Priced as de scourges
Blue scribes (finecast)
Herald of nurgle (finecast)
Maybe a little surprise here too…
Plastic GDs are done, rumored to have pieces to build named GD as variants ( though not expected til 2013)
Dark Angels
To Counter for the forces of Chaos, Dark Angels and Black Templar rumors are making the rounds.
The latest from Harry on warseer, is that codex Dark Angels will be next after Chaos Space Marines. With a starter set of Dark Angels vs Chaos Space Marines it is logical that those two codices would be next. Perhaps one before the starter and one after?
Black Templar
One of the very latest rumors is that the Black Templar will be making an appearance. Whether its a White Dwarf codex and/ or a wave of models is still unknown, but birdies are once again talking to Darnok.
from Darnok
A new codex (possibly published in White Dwarf) between now and August/ September.
New neophytes,
Emperor’s champion specific character,
New dreadnought model,
Helbrecht getting new beefed up rules
Specific vows and the EC would buff the vows of every on the battlefield
Flyers in the news
Eldar, Tau, and Dark Eldar are said to be represented in the next flyer wave coming our way at the end of August. Lets take a quick look at what Stickmonkey has said
Eldar are getting a dual kit. A fighter, bomber/heavy attack, and transport were in the works. The heavy attack craft and transport most share a design aesthetic. So this is what I am expecting
Tau are getting a fighter/gunship in a single kit. Roughly the size of a Stormtalon. Has new missile options.
Dark Eldar are getting the Voidraven
A Green Tide has Been Spotted
Orks in the distant future? it looks like this weeks rumors include almost everyone, even a greenskin wave of models/upgrades has been mentioned. These appear to be slotted for spring of 2013
from Stickmonkey
Ork buggy/half track Dakka/skorcha/rokket plastic (1x box)
Deffcopters all options plastic (1x box)
Meganobs all options plastic (5x box)
Flashgits upgrade finecast (3x pk)
Cybork upgrade finecast
