About DA models… A guy in the italian forum i go told that a friend of him saw some new DA models…
I think this must be taken with a huge amount of salt but this is the rumor…

DW box in DV style…
Veteran unit in PA + robes with guns an shields and a lot of blings…
Belial model in a very cool TDA…

The other guy who gave the rumors of multiple DW units said

Élite DW CC unit can purchase one of the following upgrades: BS5, some kind of reroll in H2H, some kind of bonus for DS…

Heavy support termies can swap PF for a second SB (assault4), sternguard ammo and peculiar heavy weapons (AC with “plasma” ammo or something like that) and take one of the following upgrades: BS5, some kind of reroll against veichles, full BS of charged…

Please take all this rumors with a HUGE amount of salt… They are not mine… I am just reporting and translating them from italian sources…

I just read yesterdays rumor post about Deathwing, this is nothing like what I have been told by the Games Workshop source I know. This is what I was told.

*HQ models will be recast into finecast. Same models
*New Belial model robes, powersword, stormbolter, or plasma bolter combi
*New Chaplain
*Deathwing Box Set: Comes with 3 options; Normal DW Terminator Squad, Command/HQ Squad with Banner and Apothecary, and an Elite Squad with Plasma Cannon options
*Ravenwing Box Set: Bikes remodeled and look like the Ravenwing bikes from Dark Vengeance, but same build as normal bikes, also with added weapons for the new Ravenwing Elite unit.

Also on Faeit this week more evidence of a new speader

You can certainly expect a new speeder type

Still no single  rumour that predicts both a new flyer and a new Land Speader, so they could be the same thing.

Rumours: Darks angels confirmed for January

Posted on Bell of lost souls today.

A bit of tidying up and omnibus Dark Angels stuff today boys and gals.

First up Dark Angels Scheduling:

– Dark Angels devoted White Dwarf for January
– Miniatures go up for pre-order end of December and are available very early January. ~So save up some of your holiday money!

Ruleswise we hear the following:

-Sammael still rides the Imperium’s only functioning jetbike.
-Larger sized Tactical Squads have been reported ~perhaps the 1st Chapter is still holding onto some of the “old Legion ways”??? 
-Standard “Green Dark Angels” are well represented with 8 unit choices across the codex.  It won’t be all Deathwing and Ravenwing.

Rumours: Dark Angels are almost here

This hit the internet yesterday.

via the Faeit 212 inbox (anonmyous as I have no permission to use the sources name)
the next WD is hobbit releases and the WD after will feature Dark Angels.
DA codex will be after Christmas though.

I think’s it’s a bit odd they say the next white dwarf after that and not. The January White Dwarf? If you combine that with the Double release in December Rumour. The mind starts to boggle. Could we be looking at two White Dwarfs in December? One thing is for sure, the 1st legion and it’s successors will be on a table top near you soon.

Rumour: Dark Angels to get Battle Bunkers and new Predator weapons

This was posted on Bols Lounge today (posted by Bigred)


HEAVY SUPPORT:
Predator – Plasma and “Reaper Cannon” new main gun option, no new sponson options – new model kit possible (and the Predator is kind of an old kit).

Whirlwind – Flakk missile option.

Land Raider – Dark Angels get all the current Imperial types. Deathwing can take then at dedicated transports.

Dreadnought – The classics that we know and love, moving on…

Devastator Squad – Flakk missile option.

Vindicator – Nothing new here…

Siege Cannon – Techmarine’s mortar-like cannon. Multiple sources speak of this model being somehow interchangable with Imperial Guard artillery kits to round out the last missing models. ~Editor’s note: the Griffon perhaps?

DEDICATED TRANSPORTS:
Rhino – Standard rules.

Razorback – Standard rules, new updated model kit with ALL turret weapons options mentioned.

Land Raider – Deathwing Terminators ONLY.

Land Speeder Storm – Scouts only.

Battle Bunker – from the Wall of Martyrs kit.
