Rumours: The Dark Angel Chaplain in Dark Vengeance wasn’t Limited edition ?!?

Yes you’ve read that right. Rumour has it that only thing that was Limited edition about the limited edition box set of Dark Vengeance was the box!

I did hear the chaplain fron DV would be available as a clampack but no idea when.

I have heard both the DVish interrogator Chaplin and Radagast will be available after May and June of 2013 respectively.

It was rather odd for Games Workshop to make a limited edition plastic model. Can you name another? Just like the Wall of Martyrs was a limited edition box with plastic’s kits that would be available separately with it. It’s rumour the plastic Chaplin will resurface next year. I guess it’s going to hit as part of a 2nd wave of Dark Angels releases.  I imagine those who only bought the Limited box set just to get this model are not going to be happy. I haven’t gone back and studded the wording in white dwarf, but I’ll leave you with the wording from White Dwarf Daily.

“The first thing you’ll notice about the Dark Vengeance boxed game is that it is Limited Edition. This is because it includes an exclusive model – a Dark Angels Interrogator Chaplain that will only be available in the first production run of the game”

Rumour: Warhammer World going old school.

An unnamed source has let it slip that a friend at a Gaming Group spoke with a source very close to Warhammer World. He said they are going to plug the shelves that are normally empty due to models being used for white dwarf etc, with older models from the studio. He also said Games Workshop have lost a lot of their older models, which is why the photo above has incomplete Terminator and Devastator squads. He also said some of the old models have been repainted!

The last point is the one I find most shocking. So there you have it another scoop on ChapterMasters.com

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

via 75hastings69 on Warseer  
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.

via Faeit 212 and Stickmonkey

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.
