More Grey Knight Rumors-I cannot wait until April!!!

by Spaguatyrine

Now as I was checking BOLS I found some information I must have missed last week with the tournament preparation I had...Look below...

I love Grey Knights, so this just makes me giggle with glee and joy!  I know these are just rumors, but one would think 70% of this is true with the leaks GW likes to put out. I am super interested in getting all the facts when they come. But, let's talk about the thought of 2 wound terminators in the game.  This could drastically change the Space Marines carousel meta game.  If I can use Storm Shield and an apothecary in a 2 wound 2+/3+ unit, how resilient will that be.  The key will be if wound allocation will be available with different weapon load outs, or they will be similar to TH/SS regular terminators.

Captain Stern's ability to make every model including friendly models within 6" take a strength test or be removed sound very interesting.  I have always loved Captain Stern and will most likely play him regardless. (Maybe)

With just being rumors, I also find it pretty odd that actual names of special characters are leaked.  (More than meets the eye)

And probably the most awesome rumor I have seen below is the Warp Rift psychic power. A template that removes models from play.  Does this work on a 4+, vs Str, etc?  If this is true, I might just sell my entire guard army and by more Grey Knights than I already have!

What are your thoughts?
