yeah. so GW's tack at marketing 6th ed is ramping up. New shinys for you guys to gaze upon.
so yeah here you go...
Maybe this is just what you guys out there need to run out and drop your $75 for the new edition, or maybe even the $100 for the attractive Manbag with dice version.
I'm saving my lunch money.
Probably will download a torrent of the rules. Because SM:tG doesn't sound too appealing. Unless I buy Marines. and terrain. and flyers. and.... you guys catching onto GW's strategy for releasing Fantasy last year, and now 40K?

These look really awesome. I am stoked about tomorrow. Thanks farmpunk!
ReplyDeleteI don't think its worth getting riled over, the game will take a few months to settle out, but I'll be highly surprised if terrain isn't more generic, with non-imperial types able to make their own version. Cheaper than GW stuff if you do it right!
ReplyDelete'sides, if Stelek is to be believed, fliers are a waste of money, as they won't be good in 6th, despite GW's efforts. If that is the case, we'll probably be able to run lists not too far from where we are now.
I'm hoping fliers ruin everyone's day and that Necrons pwn all other codices with the ridiculous cheapness of their fliers...
ReplyDeleteThat's just my personal opinion...
@Ian,
ReplyDeleteI think Stelek is ok, but he thinks my lists suck along with his roadies and well.... I plastered his roadies at Nova. LOL
True enough, I'm just hoping he's right, I really don't feel like needing to buy fliers for all my armies lol. Although that chaos daemonic dragon rumor...

ReplyDeleteSo have you decided on Wolves or Knights for NOVA? I'm trying to stick with my Wolves as well (tempted to run the same list as last year) just so no one looks at me like a douche...

ReplyDeleteI am excited Totengraber!
ReplyDelete@unholy_martyr, I am not sure yet. I have some incredibly well painted grey knights and some good painted space wolves. I am not sure yet but I will probably take both. One for the invitational and one for the GT. Depending on the edition played etc. What do you play?

ReplyDeleteBasically it boils down to the fact that if Sandy and F-Punk don't bitch their not having fun. Sure they might carry on but don't let it fool you they are paying closer attention to this than most of the rest of us.
Sorry. Retracted my statement.
ReplyDeleteI am super-excited for 6th edition and can't wait to see the game change!
The point he is trying to make is that for a large part of our gaming community this is a fun and mysterious time. Not all death and despair.
ReplyDeleteIt's a fun and exiting time only if you are willing to completely ignore GW's track record. Still, it can be fun to watch a train wreck.
DeleteIf the game is good I'll get positive again. But I've seen nothing yet that encourages me.
@Spag
ReplyDeleteMy other army is Currently Dual Stormraven Grey Knights with Dreadnought and Dreadknight support. At the local RTT's, people hate to see it and with all of the rumored changes for 6th edition, they're hating it even more.
