The Rumours are coming in thick and fast. It’s like someone has had  an out of hours tour of the studio. No one ever suspects the cleaner 🙂

Rumours: Dark Angels What is a Raven Claw?

 More Dark Angels Rumours from Sticky Money today covering Fast Attach and Troops.

via Stickmonkey on  Bell of Lost Souls
TROOPS: 
Deathwing Terminators – Same general layout as we have now, but with additional Plasma Cannon and Autocannon heavy weapon options.

Tactical Squads – The old classics we all love, moving on…

Ravenwing Bike Squad – Up to ten bikers, for each 5 bikes, you may upgrade one to an Attack bike.  Attack bike gunner options are: HB, MM, HF, Twin-linked Plasmagun!. Squad can Combat Squad and has Teleport Homers.

FAST ATTACK:
Ravenwing Landspeeder Support Squad – Same as now, but gunner option are: HB, MM, HF, Twin-linked Plasmagun!

Ravenwing Bike Support Squad – Full Attack Bike unit (this might also be a duplicate report of the TROOPS Bike Squad)

Assault Squad – Same old classic jump-pack squad we have now.

Ravenclaw Air Superiority Fighter – Dual “Reaper Cannons” allowing Snap Shots on flyers. Can be replaced with 2x Missiles, or 2x Plasma Cannons.

But what does a Raven Claw look like???? Early reports suggested this would a land speeder variant like the Tempest, but with eagle shaped wings.

Eldar Rumours: From birdy on Warseer

These seem to contidict some of the existing rumours. I’d thought I’d read the Falcon (plastic kit) was getting redone. I’ll be glad it’s it’s not I don’t think it’s needs it.

Hi,
the translation of the next eldar codex has started (or so it seems)…

All plastic minis stay the same for the moment including jetbikes
Wraithguards will be plastic with a HtH option (swords)
A new Farseer model (finecast iirc)
a character for Dire Avengers, a new entry “something-seer”

That’s all I got for the moment!”
