Подборка слухов с B&C:

К ИД имунны только Лисандер, Кассиус и Калгар. Тов. Игнатиус считает Калгара лучшим спецчаром ибо он невероятно крут, и указывает на способность Кассиуса завалить врэйслорда одним ударом.

Шрайк:

дает армии флит, а также позволяет скваду, к которому он присоединен, инфильтрироваться(насколько прослеживается закономерность, каждый марский спецчар дает что-то отряду под его руководством). Почти тот же самый варгир, кроме Айрон Хало и ВС6

Аптекари:

Подтверждение: дают фнп своему скваду и любым присоединенным чарам.

Сторм шилды:

Очередное подтверждение, что они дают 3+ инвуль от всех атак.

Стернгард:

Все модели могут брать комби-оружие. Эт мы уже слышали, но здесь корректируется другой слух: похоже, Вулкан Эстан делает ТЛ мельты/флеймера только в том отряде, к которому присоединен.

Тандэрфайр Кэннон:

3 режима стрельбы, все они "х 4 Small Blast", один из которых имеет С6 АП4, другой - поразительно крутую абилку, но ее он не заспойлит, больно хороша(вспоминаются тут мне иашная артиллерия с ее спец. зарядами...).

Коммандники:

могут быть усажены на байки и, в теории, можно получить коммандник с т5, ФнП и сторм шилдами.

[Мuzzy]

новый файрбэйз - http://warseer.com/firebasemag

[StarScream]

Все, что вы хотели знать о стернгардах, но боялись спросить:

25 очков за рыло.

5-10 человек в отряде, у всех спец. патроны и болтеры.

Могут заплатить +5 очков(цена проскальзывала в другом слухе), чтобы заменить болтеры на комби-болтеры или штормболтеры, сохраняя при этом спец. патроны.

Также 2 модели в отряде могут заменить болтер на стандартный выбор ветеранских пушек + хэви флеймер.

Сержант может быть как с болтером, так и с болтпистолем+ццв. Также может купить лайтнинг клав(одну), павершашку, паверфист и что-то еще.

C Колокольчика

In general, almost all of the latest round of rumors are correct. The codex is described as lavish, with a large color section, and clocking in at nearly 150 pages. Lets dive right into some of the details:

HQs

Master

Has well over 20 wargear options, and access to a once per game S:10 AP:1 Orbital Strike that is somewhat similar to the Witchhunter power.

Librarian

Leadership 10, and has an entire page of various powers to select from. Big news is the Psychic Hood which now has a range of 24" instead of infinite.

Master of the Forge

Access to the Conversion Beamer, an old-school Rogue Trader era weapon with a 72" range that grows more powerful the greater the distance to its targets. At its top end, it is S:10 AP:1 Small Blast.

Elites

Terminators

Available in squad sizes of 5-10. Stormshields for Assault Termys confirmed as 3+ invulnerable vs all attacks (assault and shooting).

Techmarines

Has a power allowing you to improve the cover save of a single piece of ruins in your deployment zone by +1. Access to the Thunderfire Cannon, which is artillery and has multiple fire modes based upon 4 small blast markers. One of the fire modes makes its target count as being in difficult ground next turn. ~neat!

Honor Guard

These bad boys have access to "Relic blades" which are +2S powerweapons. Their squad leader is the "Company Champion" who is required to direct attacks vs enemy ICs if possible. ~cool!

Troops

Tactical Squads

Available in 5-10 men. Squads of ten grant access to Flamer/Multimelta/Missile Launcher/Heavy Bolter for FREE. Squads less than 10 may not purchase any special or heavy weapons. ~Heed the words of the Codex Astartes indeed!

Scouts

WS/BS:3; the heavy bolter option has access to Hellfire rounds.

Land Speeder Storm

Scout transport land speeder nullifies enemy teleport homers and icons within 6". Enemy deepstrikers within 12" roll double scatter. Enemy units who are assualted from it are at -2 Leadership.

Combat Tactics

New marine special rule allows you to voluntarily fail any morale check for any unit in the army.

ICs

Shrike (Raven Guard)

Grants the entire army Fleet instead of Combat Tactics. He has rending lightning claws and Infiltrate.

Cantor (Crimson Fists)

Grants the entire army Stubborn instead of Combat Tactics. Sternguard Veterans count as scoring units.

[StarScream]

На B&C Игнатиус жжет напалмом.

Калгар все так же имеет бронь на выбор, при этом терми-броня его получает доп. опции и сохраняет 4+ инвуль. Калгар зверь ибо крут. Не в том смысле крут. Потерял бионику, но получил два новых правила - "titan might" и "god of war".

Кассиус не этернал ворриор - это правило имеет только Калгар напару с Лисандером, но имеет кой-чего другое, к примеру, т6 и комби-флеймер с каким-то спецправилом.

Все чаптер мастера получают орбитальную бомбардировку, в том числе и Калгар с Кантором.

Чуток нового варгира, тот же релик блейд(павер-шашка с шестой силой, не +2 к силе, заметьте), но вообще примерно все то же самое. Мастер-крафтеда(как опции, я так понимаю) нет, но вернулись digital weapons и auxillary grenade launchers.

Тандерфайр - выбор ХС, ее можно запихнуть в дроп под. Поступает с одним техмаром, собственно, в энтри только его статы и содержаться - сама она артиллерия, т.е. АВ 10 10 10, дохнущая от первого глянца/пенетрата.

Собственно, дроп под влезает либо 12 маров, либо 1 дред, либо тандерфайр. У ЛРов также повысилась вместимость.

Лэнд Спидер Сторм - опция ФА, не транспорта.

ЛС можно апгрейдить почти что как хочется, можно даже иметь два(в оригинале twin, без linked) флеймера или две мельты. Тайфун лончер в прошлом, теперь это просто ТЛ миссла.

Выборы ХаКу - все спешиалы кроме Кронуса и Телона, чаптер мастера(позволяют брать онор гардов), капитан(позволяет взять коммандник), либр, чаппи, мастер форджа.

Тигуриус - мастер псайкер, кастует больше обычного либра.

Похоже, что в отличие от болтердрилла Лисандера, твин-линк флеймеров-мельт Эстаном действует не только в его присутствии, а как чаптер-тактикс.

part II: рассказывает менее проверенный товарищ, так что...

Спецчары по очкам находятся в радиусе от 190 до 230.

Лисандер: комбат тактикс -> стабборн.

Шрайк: комбат тактикс -> скаут (если честно, то вот поэтому мне слабо верится в эту пачку слухов. ибо ассолт терми со скаут мувом в ридимере, спокойно чарджащие и жгущие на первый ход... это уже полом.)

Кантор: комбат тактикс -> hold the line (по слухам - делает юнит скорингом. т.е. скорящие элита, фаста, ХС и ХаКу.) имеет штормболтер "Стрела Дорна" - Ап 4 Ассолт 4.

Эстан: комбат тактикс -> ТЛ-мельты и флеймера.

Подтверждение того, что обычный ЛР возит 12 человек, крысодер - 18.

Подтверждение того, что у разорбяк появляется масса опций, например, ТЛ плазма.

Хорошо иногда вставать по утрам)) опять с колокольчика

Marneus Calgar

First off, Marneus Calgar is described as awesome; the Abaddon of loyalists. Not simply because he's an outstanding fighter but because of the support he provides for his army. He gives all Ultramarines the ability to pass or fail any Leadership test (other reports say morale checks). This is a superior ability to Combat Tactics as that only works in CC and the marines can normally only choose to fail.

Marneus also has a rule called "God of War" which allows him to re-roll virtually anything (shooting to hit rolls, attacks rolls in assualt, to wound rolls). It is basically the psychic power Warp Time, but is always on and works with Marneus' shooting. His storm bolter built into the Gauntlets of Ultramar is AP2. Marneus had 4 base attacks on his statline and is armed with two powerfists. ~you do the math

Calgar possesses Eternal Warrior without any mention of a mantle. Power armour is apparently no longer an option for him, but his "Honour Guard" are still in power armor. Finally, he's wearing his Terminator armour with an additional 4+ invulnerable save.

Honor Guard Vs Command Squads

There is a bit of confusion regarding these units so here are some other morsels we've heard. Honour Guard and Command Squads are two different things. Only "Chapter Masters" can get Honour Guard and they cannot take apothecaries (so no Honor Guard-Feel No Pain combos). Command Squads are available for company captains. The leader of the Command Squad is the company champion who gets to re-roll all hits against enemy ICs.

[EOL]

Honour Guard

Honour Guard (available to Chapter Master's only) have artificer armour, bolters, bolt pistols, grenades, and power weapons. They can replace their power weapons with relic blades (S:6, two-handed power weapons) and also have various other options such as storm shields (3+ invulnerable save against all attacks) and auxillary grenade launchers (a 12” grenade launcher that can be fired in addition to any other weapon each and every turn). Marneus Calgar allows the player to field three squads of Honour Guard instead than the standard one squad.

Tabletop Performance

Combat Tactics

Playing against this in an actual game was not bad as you can still attempt to sweep the marines (as with ATSKNF, they take wounds as if they are fearless if caught). Every time my marine opponent tried it my nasty and quick assault units caught them, and Combat Tactics only forced him to take more armour saves. If the marines had been successful more often I may have had a different opinion on Combat Tactics.

ATSKNF

This has changed a little. Marines automatically rally at the begining of their turn and can act normally (they do not count as moving, and don't get the 3" consolidate). They still can't rally if an enemy is within 6". Other than that, it's the exact same.

General Gameplay Thoughts

Overall, the game felt like I was playing a codex marine list. I'm not saying that simply because my opponent wasn't useing any of the new codex's flashy new units, but the army played like marines should. Perhaps if I get whacked by some of those new units I'll change my opinion.

FAQs

When the marine codex comes out, GW will release updated FAQs for the DA, BA and BT list making some of the changes carry over to them. ATSKNF is a good candidate for this as it is written much more cleanly in the new codex.

[DKardKain]

The Space Marines of the Adeptus Astartes are Humanity's ultimate warriors, dedicated to the defence of the Emperor and the Imperium of Man. They are barely human at all, but superhuman, having been made superior, in all respects, to a normal man by a harsh regime of genetic modification, psycho-conditioning and rigorous training. Organised into small independent armies called Chapters, their unswerving loyalty is to the Emperor of Mankind and no other. This box set contains: one 144-page Codex: Space Marines, one multi-part plastic Drop Pod, three multi-part plastic Scout Bikes, five metal Sternguard Veterans, five metal Vanguard Veterans, one metal Thunderfire Cannon, one metal Sergeant Telion, One metal Sergeant Chronus, one metal Pedro Kantor and one metal Ultramarines Captain Sicarius.

Imperial Armour Volume Six: The Siege of Vraks -Part 2

Our new Imperial Armour book continues the story of the bitter war to control the traitor world of Vraks. Trapped in brutal conflict, the once loyal population of this world have been led astray and plunged into the heretical worship of Chaos by the actions of the Apostate-Cardinal Xaphan, and now must face the wrath of the Imperium they once served. For ten years the bloody-meat grinder of Vraks has fed on death and both sides now look to break the vicious stalemate by bringing new forces to play. For the Imperium, the merciless regiments of the Death Korps of Krieg press their onslaught relentlessly, aided now by the mighty Red Scorpions Space Marines, while the colossal Titans of the Legio Astorum take to the field in the Imperium`s efforts to crush the traitors once and for all. But the heretics of Vraks are not alone, as like vultures to a rotting carcass the forces of Chaos are drawn to this war-torn world in ever increasing numbers, and for Vraks the worst horrors are yet to come.

Imperial Armour Volume Six: The Siege of Vraks -Part 2 is a lavishly illustrated 208 page colour hardback, and you can see numerous preview page spreads Here.

The book also comes with a A1 size, double-sided folded poster, which on one side features some fantastic Karl Kopinski artwork of the Death Korps` march to war, and on the other a tactical map showing the detail of the defence lines and siege works in the citadel war zone.

Ссылко на превью книженции.

Перепошу и сюды...

Новое с Колокольчика.

Картинки НОВИНОК от ГВ, не проходите)) Тееперь все можно рассмотреть в деталях)

По ним видно, что слух о том. что в поде будут в поде сторм болтер и ракетница, а также иконки ДА, БА, СВ, БТ, Ультры и Фистов.

Здесь, же есть фотка скотов на бяках: гранатомет вместо линканутых болтеров идет. Слух, про укладку мин-ловушен - подтвержден, вроде теперь можно какой-то кусок террейна минировать, как это будет работать - хз, интересно, мона будет минировать маркеры?)))

Оказывается у Стенгардов одна комби будет бесплатна на 5 рыл.

Педро наш Кантор, оказывается, еще и +1 атаку друзьям вокруг (12) дает.

А страниц в Кодексе все-таки будет 144, а не 150, как раньше говорили, у будет дивная карта почти всех известных орденов СМ))

Давно хотел уж написать, что к амибуку "Воины Хаоса" планируется выпуск Князя Демонов Кхорна. А демоны и в FB и в 40k одинаковы)

[ШуТ]

Нет, не заставка, а эльдар трэйлер. Скорей всего заставка будет другой.

То же самое, но в лучшем качестве

Слухи про Некрошек с Колокола

Early word is that Necrons may be slated for the Q2-09 40k release slot. There is another codex scheduled ahead of them but there is conflicting data on what it is (currently bouncing around between IG, Space Wolves, Dark Eldar). The info reported so far is:

* Removal of the C'tan from the Codex as fieldable units (they are still in the fluff).

* The C'tan are to be moved over to Apocalypse where they will make an appearance as much more powerful single figures (possibly with attendant new oversized Forgeworld minis).

* The big new HQ replacement for them will be entirely new tiered-level Necron Lords. Read the Apocalypse Necron background page for insight into what may be coming, but there is talk of Bronze, Silver, Gold, possibly even Platinum Lords.

Lords are said to have multiple special abilities and options, and certtain levels of Lords may re-arrange the Force Org chart for certain units, making different army builds possible. An example of an option was an advanced necrodermis, allowing the Lord to mimic his C,tan masters (and conveniently allow for the use of the existing C'Tan minis).

* There will be Necron Lord named characters.

* The rest of the army is described as getting a small number of new units, and having several existing units rearranged by Force Org category.

* In general, the Necron army is desribed as being somewhat "buffed".

Собственно слухи с варсира, там еще сказали, что возможно Фордж сделает больших таких ктанов - правильно, у некронов появятся титаны.

Последние слухи\новости с колокола

Точнее с LA Gamesday

Planetstrike

Phil Kelly is working on this supplement that has been rumored since last year. ~There are no timelines on it, but earlier rumors placed it sometime in 2009.

Plastic Valkyrie

This long rumored kit is still said to be a possibility, but not definite. Phil kelley said that GW has the technical know-how to produce the kit, and that there is simply a business case to be made for putting it into production. ~Earlier rumors had placed the Plastic Valkyrie alongside Plastic Stormtroopers as part of the upcoming IG release schedule.

Scenario Book

With the dearth of mission vairey inthe 5th Edition book, this one seems like a no brainer. GW is considerering a scenario book with additional missions and possibly a campaign system. No production work has begun. ~This is a very old rumor that has reared it head again after many months of silence.

40k Movie !!!

Black Library in response to an audience question replied (paraphrasing): "Well, hypothetically, there could maybe be a direct to DVD release of some kind of CGI movie with Ultramarines next year. Maybe." The quality of said effort was described as being on the same level as the Dawn of War II cutscenes. Essentially the Black Library presenter made clear that something is in the works, while issueing no guarantees as to whether it would ever be finished, or released, much less an actual timeline.
