A second wave of models is apparently due for sometime around June, and includes a Tzeenthch flyer. Not to mention that we are looking new Furies that can teleport short distances. Definitely check it out.
Please remember that these are rumors

This round of rumors is regarding the Second Wave, penciled in for June. Note however that Games Workshop has this thing for releasing Daemons in August - so that second wave might slide a little.
In any case, onto the waves themselves:
Wave 2
Keeper of Secrets/(Named GD of Slaanesh)
Lord of Change/Fateweaver
Furies/(Chaos ground daemons...I've heard this alternate kit unit has an "unstable" rules granting them an extra save, a 12" teleport, and a chance to lose models (determined randomly).
Hounds of Khorne
An all new Tzeentch Flyer... (NOT the Heldrake)
Chariot of Tzeentch/ Flame cannon alt kit)
Oh my, that sounds like it is going to be a very exciting year for us daemon players.
ReplyDeleteOh my, that sounds like it is going to be a very exciting year for us daemon players.
ReplyDeleteHate to mention it, but simply by *deploying* daemon armies risk entire units, not just models!
ReplyDeleteAt the moment yes. This is a new book though and would be willing to bet the daemon players most hated rule will be getting a revamp for the better. One can dream anyway..
DeleteIn fact the whole deployment system might work around this new unstable rule with options to counter it. Time will tell but honestly can't see GW sticking with how Daemons deploy atm, it is just way too much of a flaw.
Deep striking my entire army where ever I want and controlling deployment is why I love playing daemons.
Delete*cough* Warp Quake *cough*
DeleteStill it ain't the worst thing if it stays. I fear more that the new codex will lump us with the universal Daemon rule meaning no more EW.
Those "Chaos ground Daemons" would be the 'Warp Stalkers' then?
ReplyDeleteThat's what I'd remembered too. Same name as the WoW monster. If the unit also teleports it'll be even more like it.
DeleteThe whole Tzeentch Flier thing makes me think Fire Lord. I'd love to see that in 40k scale.

Tzeentch Doomwing? Could be fun!
ReplyDeleteBy the gods no! We all ready have the Helturkey. Doomwing on top and I'd have to model up a Colonel Sanders Deamon prince.
DeleteLevithan all the way!
Leviathan would be WAY too big
DeleteNow I hope that each god gets viable units. Want to start/expand with Tzeentch and Nurgle.
ReplyDeleteI hope this is a well ballanced codex like the last two and we loose the bandwagon daemon players....fingers crossed!
ReplyDeleteI dunno, surely it makes the most sense to release the flyer in the first wave?
