The new Space Marines are coming in HOT! Get ready for 4 new books to choose from showing up next week.  Take a look.

The reveals from yesterday are big enough to be spread over several weeks. Week 1 is kicking off right away and brings us the core Space Marine codex in 2 flavors, and the first two Supplementals:

Codex Space Marines

The main codex discussed here. Today we get some more details:

The codex allows: “First Founding Chapters and their successors to make use of all 76 datasheets included in the codex,** there are customisable Successor Chapter Tactics, two psychic disciplines, Litanies of Faith that can be bellowed forth by the Chaplains and more”.

Codex Space Marines (Limited Indominus Edition)

Here’s the super fancy one with all the bells and whistles. There are on 800 printed and it contains the following:

The Indomitus Edition comes presented in a specially designed box that’s covered in embossed details, along with loads of awesome, exclusive content, such as:

  • A numbered certificate, hand-written by Roboute Guilliman himself,* inviting you to join his Indomitus Crusade.
  • A double-sided poster featuring a galaxy map that shows the Space Marine homeworlds and crusade fleets on one side, and 103 examples of Space Marine Chapters with their colour schemes and Chapter icons on the other.
  • 10 metal Space Marine Company coins (great for Objective Markers), each featuring a Company number on one side and the Company Captain’s honorific on the reverse.
  • 124 cards for easy reference during a game, divided into three sets:
    • Set 1 – 49 cards (36 Tactical Objectives, 13 psychic powers)
    • Set 2 – 48 cards (38 Stratagems, 3 Combat Doctrines, 7 Litanies of Battle)
    • Set 3 – 27 Chapter Tactics (8 Chapter Tactics, 19 Successor Tactics)

Supplemental – Ultramarines

The first Supplemental codex will lay down everything you need to know to both collect and play the Ultramarines. We will need to wait to see exactly what this contains to get a feel for the others in the series.

Supplemental – White Scars

The sons of the Great Khan are riding into action alongside the Ultras as well.

~This is feeling like a 3 or 4 week release.  I can’t wait to see where this is headed.
