    I saw the new Boss, with a twin linked shoota, so you might be fine.

  2. If you are talking about the one in the last white dwarf, I believe that's just a customization of the old Black Reach Waaaghboss model.

    Well, in the digital codex, there's a force requisition that allows you to make an army list and it shows the points cost. When you select a unit, let's say boyz for example, it'll show a sillhouette of that unit you selected. When you select the warboss, it most definitely shows the warboss from white dwarf.

    Speaking of digital codex, can anyone confirm if the digital version has all the fluff that the hardback book does? Stupid question, I know, but it feels kinda lacking in the lore section.
  4. So who is bringing up our special character choices? or has 7th ed finally moved away from Special Character worship seen in 5th and 6th ed? I know they ended Arms Racing when 7th hit which was a welcome change.
  5. There are now more HQ choices for orks than before. Remember Zagstruk? He is an HQ now, and they took his special charge ability after coming into play away, making him pretty useless imo.

  6. GW has taken a strange direction in army design these last few editions; at least it might mean we'll see more DIY HQ's showing up

  7. The biggest upset I felt was when I read that they had taken the fearless part of mob rule away. It was the one thing left that I really enjoyed after furious charge got nerfed.

    I think I saw Kruellagh the Vile lurking in the corner, watching this discussion.
    She looked a little sad, maybe you guys could make her feel a little better and let her play with you.

    Eh, I can understand why they did it. Other armies have to pay a heavy premium for Fearless, be it Synapse for Tyranids or a heavy points cost for Chaos Marines. I'm actually hopeful for the new Mob Table - it looks like it might actually be better in some areas than Fearless for over 10 models.

    And whilst we're talking about benefits, has anyone seen those new Flash Gitz?! Finally they have some real dakka! And don't get me started on how good it is to have a Painboy that can be placed into any squad. 30 boyz with Feel No Pain? Mm-hm!
