A few dudes, a few torsos and every single weapon you'd want to put on any of the handless dudes you can still buy.

They're discontinuing bolters. From a game that's 80% Space Marines.

The bolters are nice, but you don't really need it if you're going plastic.

So the question is "will they cut empty hang MK IIIs and such"

They shouldn't cut resin despoilers and assault Marines, but anything* is possible.

E: *except for plastic MK IIs

OK, what exactly changed with regards to Unwieldy and Bulging Biceps? According to the transcribed version, Unwieldy makes shooting the gun into a double action, Bulging Biceps ignores Unwieldy, which is... like it always was?

I’ve been told by my groups rules guru that it removes Unwieldy only for close combat weapons. But I haven’t looked to verify it for myself...

Sort of makes sense as it means there is a way to remove unwieldy for either shooting or cc weapons but neither option does it for both.

The rule says "any weapons," doesn't specify CC or shooting.

I believe this is from the faq - but Bulging Biceps now allows you to use a second weapon in close combat at the same time. It does not give the effect of making a double shoot action into a basic one, that is suspensor only.

You're right, just checked the FAQ. Wonder why they didn't include in the transcription.

AoS is rumored to be preordering at the end of June. I can't imagine Kill Team would be released at the same time, so if it is June, I'd say around the 16th for delivery the next week .

I hope it's soon, cause I'm jazzed for it.

They teleported the corpses out in Ascention, too. However, in the trailer, it looks like rear attack just fucks up the power pack. Maybe termies don't just die in this one.

Deathwing was the one game that felt right for a termie strike force.

It might be because your dudes level up and so on and just having them die outright would be a little more :xcom: than this dev wants to do.

Get ready for (if they ever release it) a new edition of GM that uses those same old rear end rules.

In the meantime get Gretchinz! it's fun and definitely embraces the orky ethos of daka, crashing, and going fast.

poo poo I've been trying to re-create XCOM using miniatures.

I'd love for a 40k XCOM PC game but that's probably too close to GW's real products for them to allow. So it'd have to be real-time or something stupid.

The upcoming Mechanicus game basically looks like 40k XCOM.
