ANAmal.net posted:The article never uses the word "transport", but it clearly has access doors on the sides and rear, so I suspect it's their razorback. That said, the vindicator also has a rear door too, so that might not mean 100% that this is a transport, but it probably is. And considering the hilarious amount of guns strapped to the drat thing, I figure their embiggened predator will mount a loving baneblade turret with sponson thunderfires or something. I kinda like this thing, but I hope it's some kind of exception. I'd prefer it if marines used mostly tracked tanks. Although I guess less people would buy bigmarhinos than those who'd just use their old normal sized rhinos

Art preview is up on the community site. Glad to see art direction for the new edition includes a bit of "tell Alex Boyd to draw some weird stuff"     There's also a bunch of forgettable CGI stuff there.]

Best new art in the rulebook is a nice quiet piece of a Big Imperial Fist Apothecary dude euthinising a wounded mate while another dude flings a Chaos Marine off a cliff. I dunno why, but the concept of a Big Marine wrestling dudes to death made me smirk.

For_Great_Justice posted:The Imperium being rear end backwards with technology was was of the more entertaining things I found. Losing that an any humanity marines will having now being a bunch of test tube warriors really dashes any interest I personally have for the Imperium. I know this was meant as a knock on the idea, and the loss of that important human aspect is definitely a shame, but I'm sorry this is a hilarious idea.

Guarenteed that's gonna be the core drama between new and old Marines. Primaris are explicitly secret weapons, kept on ice of the darkest days, loyal to himanity only out of indoctrination. Fertile ground to explore, BL gets their best on the case.

Safety Factor posted:Unfortunately, GW wrote out any interesting takes on the biglys by allowing then to be made out of humans like normal marines. Existing marines can even be upgraded into biglys. Yeah, having them be just "people but with super marine serum in them" actually does them a disservice. Because making the regular Astartes have to confront these guys who are 100% inhuman would be way more interesting.

So I have been listening to the second game of the twitch stream and they were talking about the Landraider. They were talking about its 2+ save and mentioned that it can get into cover and get a 1+ save. Here is hoping that 1+ saves are 100% legal now due to the rend stuff because man are Terminators going to be fun.

Although I guess less people would buy bigmarhinos than those who'd just use their old normal sized rhinos I think the hovering is a good way to differentiate bigly tanks from regular ones, and given that most of the army's motor pools seem to be based around one basic tank with a extra sprue attached to create the variants, I wouldn't be surprised. MasterSlowPoke posted:Someone on dakka said it'd be 250 queenbucks but there's no way that's right. The 7th edition one was, if I'm remembering right, $340, so 250 GBP might not be too far off.

Yeah, I think they could have some good stuff come out of it, assuming they play their cards right. There is plenty of precedent for clones in 40K, and the people complaining about the fluff justification it are just being weenies. Now, the implication is holds for the existing SM range of models is a different story...

Damnit. My resolve is broken so I am going to be getting the boxed set so I can add the Primaris to my Wolves. Oh well, at least I like both sides and can add the DG to my Chaos. Now I just need to figure out some sort of Norse aesthetic to apply to the flying guys. (The regular Bigmars are going to be Jotunn.)

Confirmed my earlier thread questions watching the live game. The corner of your tank has "eyes" that you can use for line of sight. I assume this applies to feet and arms on humanoid models too.
