Grey Knight Force Requisition: A WIP or Complete Listings?
Its been all over the hobby news, that the digital interactive Space Wolf Codex accidentally released a Force Requisition for the Grey Knights. Well, I am a fan of the the Interactive Digital Codices, and when I had bought mine, all I had seen was the Space Wolf force requisition. Being a fan of Grey Knights, I chalked it up to my luck and moved on.
However, what I have since learned, is that if you keep opening the Force Requisition in the codex, it will eventually give you the Grey Knights. There has been no update yet. Does this give me all the info that is coming in the new codex? I dont think so.
The Force Requisition in regards to Grey Knights looks surprising bare. Almost like this was close the final version, but not quite. We had rumors this morning of two new vehicle kits that are coming, but I dont have any additional information on that yet, and some of the options in there do not look complete. For example, there is no Land Raider entry, just listing it as a dedicated transport for terminator squads.
Other things to note beyond the points, are that rad grenades and psychotroke grenades are not in there. My guess is being designated as Inquisition items only.
Some new things......
Bone Shard of Solor
The Fury of Deimos
Cuirass of Sacrifice
The Soul Glaive
Domina Liber Daemonica.
These items look to be relics or artifacts. Some of these, like The Fury of Deimos are not available to the Techmarines and Librarians.
Psybolt Ammo. No listing for it on dedicated transports. Same goes for Psyflame. Also of note, there is no mention of pschic pilots, or psyk-out or Blind grenades. No Empyrean Brain Mines, nor warp stabilization fields. The Stormraven does not have mind-strike missiles in its entry.
So is this a complete codex listing, a finished product that slipped in on accident? or is it a work in progress force requisition that glitched itself into the new codex. My guess is that there is more to this codex than is listed, and that this was a WIP glitch.
Personally, this looks like a mid-run build of the force requisition, but who knows.

Yeah, that's nothing near complete.
It's basically the first draft where things were being deleted and cleaned, but nothing added.
