Yep, that were underwhelming.

Gold marines... :yawn:

The Nagash battletome looks interesting though.

I'm more excited for the mention of a Thousand Sons Codex coming soon and that they'll be able to use all the AoS Tzaangor range.

Love me those Tzaangors but don't play AoS, so perfect for me.

I hope arkhan or neferatas allegiances have to models come back

So it actually DID turn out to be a 3rd marine faction.   
Colour me extremely underwhelmed.

And an existing chapter that got its own coxed, we were all right and we are all disappointed.

The one time we're right...

honestly for xenos i was hoping for necrons, for either terrain or conversion potential

40k fluff has always been a bit silly when applied to tabletop but Custodes armies running around seems a bit daft.

I’m feeling thousand sons at the moment; bought a box of Rubric marines to enjoy.

This year I would like a plastic sisters release (come on, GW!) and a set of noise marine plastics.

I don’t know why but I’m really liking 40k at the moment. Happens every couple of years. I’m glad it’s coincided with GW becoming a bit more customer focussed too. Funnily enough, I haven’t played the actual game since the very start of 3rd Edition...

I have a deep dislike of the idea of custodes fighting in the 41st millenium. I was OKAY with it in horus heresy games, just, but i always think that having something exist as a unit on the tabletop destroys alot of it's mistique in the setting, and gives fuel to those special gamers who only view the fluff through a filter of in game stats.

forgeworld put up a post recently asking who would win out of X unit and x character. The comments were just full of "well this has this stat and if it rolled this and had this rule it would win"  but no one saying "well ,he has the sword of x and fought at the battle of x, he's the better warrior."

I fear for the day that they bring the emperor into horus heresy games and we get a thousand gamers saying "oh he's not that powerful because on the table you can kill him with this units special rule".

Yes. The emporer is one they should never bring back. It would sell very well though.

Does he have T 7 or 8? And how many attacks???

That would really be nice. Should have been released before the custodes, in my opinion. There are too many golden armoured warriors around gw!

There are too many space Marines or space marines-like armies

My sentiments exactly.

A new marine army before sisters, orks, tau, necrons...galling to say the least.

And yes I'd love an emporers children codex but it can wait.
