40K Rumors – Imperial Guard

< 1

Sep 19 2013

Tongues are wagging regarding Codex Imperial Guard, on the far side of Tyranids. Here’s the latest:

These rumors come to us in multiple sets, and we have ordered them from most trustworthy to least based on a variety of “truthifying methods”:

The Probable stuff:
IG Veterans/Stormtroopers (plastic 5-man box)
Hydra
Artillery combo-kit
Roughriders (new plastic box)

The Possible stuff:
IG Regiment Doctrines: Each Regiment (Cadian, Catachan, etc…)has doctrines, similar to SM Chapter tactics. Examples listed were:
Cadians – may issue 2 orders to a unit
Catachans – Move-thru-cover, and Jungle Fighter (???)

Thunderbolt flyer: Very heavy armor, but cannot jink.

The Salt-mine
Imperial Robots – 2 new robots, requiring an Admech handler/enginseer.

Knight Paladin – Taller than riptide, not as tall as Wraithknight. Vanquisher cannon and Uber-chainsword are standard load out. May upgrade to Punisher Cannon, Uber-Fist with Inferno Flamers

~Have at it. We are hearing that IG are very early in 2014 on the heels of Tyranids.
