The boys over on the Warhammer twitch channel have brought
us a sneak peak from the new book called Gathering Storm: The Fall of
Cadia. They have shown us three new
models that will be featured in the book. Here are some screenshots of these
models.
First up is Inquisitor Greyfax. They said she was a witch hunter as well as
a psyker. The hinted that she will fit
nicely into and imperium army. This
might be nice to fit into my IG army or possibly my ad mech.
Although, if I am going to add a model to my ad mech army, it
will probably add Belisarius Cawl.
Belisarius Cawl is an arch magos. They flashed his stat page but I couldn't get
any info from it other than he is an HQ.
They did say he is toughness 6 and has 5 wounds. I am eager to find out where he fits in. Will he be for cult mechanicus alone or will
he finally be the skitarii first hq. I
am eager to find out. The also said he was as big as a carnifex.
Last but not least is The Living Saint Celestine.
In the imperial agents book we saw a sisters army without
the saint. Now, we see she is back in
this book. I am unsure if they mean for you to use the two new books instead of
the old digital codex. I am not familiar
enough with their rules to see the difference.
I am told that the acts of faith are a bit different but mostly it is
the same. I would like someone take an in-depth
look at the differences.
With the kickstarter of alternate models almost here, I had
a feeling that it was time for GW to release a plastic sister models. If you are to believe Raging heroes, I should
be seeing them in January. This probably
means March knowing how slow they really are.
Here is their Celestine.
While I like the new GW one, I think the Raging Heroes one is
cooler. It also looks more stable and
for that I am grateful. With my small force of 30 alternate girls I doubt I
will buy any of the GW sisters. I might
buy some bits to fill out the weapons but they were too late for me to buy a whole
force.
There you have it.
They talked a lot about how 2017 was going to be huge for 40k. This book is the start of a huge chaos
invasion so I have a feeling that there be a lot of non xenos army
updates. If this is true, I can focus on
my cult army. I just feel sorry for my
poor orks and tyranids who seem to be falling further and further behind in power. I guess I just have to find new and tricky
ways to play them I guess.
Questions? Comments? 40K end times?
