40K Rumors: Chaos Marines & Daemons Latest
The rumormill just knocked out some new info on the Chaos Marines and Chaos Daemons book that so many are waiting on!
via a trusted source who requested his identity be withheld:
Chaos Space Marines
Scheduled for late Q1
Look for a major rules overhaul (unlike the Tau codex)
New Codex and Minis
Not as many new minis as Tau received, but more emphasis on replacing very old minis that are well past their prime. (please Berzerkers, please please please)
Chaos Daemons
Still early in development
Tentatively slated for Q3
Will include any of the plastic Major Daemons not yet released by then. (probably only Nurgle and maybe Slaanesh)
Look for much of the randomness of the Warp Storm Table to be toned down.
Instead look for more environmental rules and effects, representing the fury of the Warp itself that must be fought by the opposing army during a Daemonic incursion – in addition to the Daemons themselves.
Each of the Ruinous powers will be able to influence the effects of the Warpsorm in unique ways – fitting their background (offensively, defensively, etc…).
~Have at it folks. We are hearing 40K/30K is going to be almost non-stop in Q1 of 2016
