These miniatures release this weekend, so be sure to Advance Order yours now!
Oh and don't forget too as demand increases, the Dark Vengeance models will probably go up in price as well, so be sure to any of the Dark Angels models you need now, before they jump!
From Faeit:
Apparently some people are getting access to the Dark Angels codex, and so I have went through and grabbed as much information as I could, and got it as current as of a couple minutes ago.
I am sure there will be lots more information coming. Some of this duplicates, but I am getting more information than I can go through and organize. So here it all is.

- The special rule "Inner Circle" gives hatred against Chaos Space Marines and Courage.
- The table of Warlord includes options to increase the turboboost of bikes, +1 / -1 to the roll of reserves etc...
- Belial can change their weapons as before. And yes, he does make Terminators troops.
- Sammael makes RW bikes troops as, also.
- Azrael gains +2S and AP3 for his sword. makes both RW and DW troops.
- No specific psychic Dark Angels. Ezekiel has a power that is S4 AP 2, D3 shots, I believe.
Deathwing Knights
- +1 To their Toughness if they are base to base.
Land Speeder Revenge
- The Plasma Storm Battery is S7 AP2, 3 small blast or 1 large blast.
Land Speeder Shroud (80 pts)

Ravenwing (80 points a unit of 3)
via Baret
80 points for a 3man bike squad! 27 points for each additional member. They still come with scouts, have special combat squad splitting (3/3 bikes and the AB and speeder separately (so 3 scoring and a vehicle). 126 points base for those fancy command bikes, their plasma is only 18" though..
Termie squads are 210, have split fire rules, can take 10 members with heavy weapons per 5. They are 44 Points for each additional member.
Everything has a version of stubborn.

(the one where we got some infos during the SoB WD release). I was reluctant to post them as the other posters in the thread mentioned it comes from a new rumourmonger but after seeing what the German forum says I suppose they may be true (or they may be coming from the same source so salt and all of that)
A brief summary of what we didn't know before:
- Azrael giving 4++ to his squad; has a S6 P3 weapon
- Warlord table gives +1d6 to turboboost distance/reroll running roll to the Warlord unit, furious charge, +1/-1 to reserve rolls, fearless, he mentions one giving "insensible" which I cannot translate as it's not a rule I know, it sounds like the beginning of the French FnP rule "insensible à la douleur" but I highly doubt he was referring to that
- Nephilim close to 160 pts with upgrade, gatling gun same sucky stats as discussed before
- The weapon of the Deathwing Knights champion is +2S AP3 and cannot be switched for something else
- Inner Circle mentioned as being Fearless, Hate (CSM) like in the other rumour
- Caliban Halberd +2S AP2 strikes at Init
- Access to Divination
- He mention later that while he didn't really check for that, the little boxes that you usually see in the army list allowing to switch FOC slots, he only remember them next to the 3 SC

In store atm with the codex. all i said is conformed. bane of the traitor(-1ap vs c:csm in cc) is deathwing knights weapons only .
Neph fighter is 180 with either weapon option
azrael does unlock both wings as troops
He has to be in the primary detachment
Also inner circle is fearless and PE c:csm
Blade of caliban is str+1 ap3 unwieldy but a lot cheaper then a normal pweapon
cammand squads are fixed number and can be taken 1 per hq of the same type
Special items include conversion and displacer and power fields. random stat monster slayer power sword and a weapon thats str+3ap3 bane blind concusive
Armoury in the codex called the armory of the rock. also small tidbit is all missle launchers can be upgraded to flak apart fron the whirlwind which got screwed. also dev squad are super cheap. 5man squad with 4 multi meltas 110pts lol
Are the fixed numbers 5-man for Deathwing and 3-man for Ravenwing?
Correct 5&3
Black sword missiles S6 AP4? It wasnt the megabolter with these stats?
both have those stats. bolter r48 missles r36 also rhe fighter has missle lock spacial rule i. the army list but has no blast missle. some silly mistake as it makes no sense we hope
belial 190 any load out
land raiders with deathwing vehicle now have the venerable rule so may reroll pen results
do Land Raiders have to pay extra to get the deathwing vehicle rule?
30 extra and has to have it
No storms. no homers on scouts.chaps &libs can take bikes. only gramd master unlock troops. can have a techmarine per hq taken
Do standard bikers have Skilled Rider?
Nope only black knights
Veng strike gives all models twin linked shots the turn they deepstrike
smite is str+6 ap2 one use. Doesnt say if it to one attack or all that turn.
The fighter has missle lock in the points section at the back but does not have any blast missles so must be a mis pri t.
The deathwing vehicle rule is just anotber name for venerable
If it says something like “Once per game the DW knights can make an attack at ……….” People would start questioning is that in addition to normal attacks? Does it get used for all attacks? Does it replace their attacks with one attack?
Here’s hoping we don’t need to argue about it for 2 months…….
It has its own sub profile str+6ap2 melee one use only
What about named characters?
Same old 5. Some new rules like azrael can choose his warlord trait from the 6 new ones. unlocks both wings as troops. also him or belial lets you not scatter with his unit when deepstriking. had to leave and there was no way to sneak the book out the store
Ezeke is mastery 3 has to take mindworm and then rolls twice on any except biomancy
Chaplain one gets instant death in melee but no ap or his crozius
oh and samiel is the only eternal warrior again
Do you get bad RSI in the wrist from copying and pasting from BOLS every day?
ReplyDeletethey all copy from Faeit anyway
ReplyDeleteWell the reason i do these now, is that Spikey has grown such a following, that for many people this is the internet point of entry for the Hobby. Which is both strange and flattering at the same time. So we're trying to branch them out to the other big sites to help grown the community, and help everyone grow together. -MBG

I like having all the rumormill garbage reposted here, its 1 stop shopping. Besides, everyone who has been in the hobby knows the golden rule when it comes to rumors- It doesn't matter where you've read it, it matters who said it. Trust Hastings and Stickmonkey and no one else.
ReplyDeletePretty interesting stuff over all, its a very Vetock book. All the unique units are crammed with those little perks, it reminds me of what he did in O&G with the savage orc harpoons and the giant spider mega poison shot. The guns on the ravenwing fighters are disappointing, the Deathwing knights look pretty strong, and the new skimmers look very powerful, but like any other vehicle, if you walk up to it and punch it, it will flip over and catch fire. The special characters don't seem anything to write home about- Belial's job is as usual, to show up and unlock stuff, Azrael looks strong, but doesn't have an ap2 terminator solution.
Looks like it would be a fun matchup with Kelly's CSM codex, as both books are tuned to poop on each other. Still wondering about the initiative order on that DW knight smite attack though, and we have conflicting profiles for the Halberd of Caliban.
Fair enough, I'm only messing. It just seems these days that every blog has the same stuff when it comes to rumours.
