pretre Posted March 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 'doctrina imperitives' are orders for skittarii - that last pic tombard put up mentions it has the cards for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted March 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Thanks for posting, the rules look pretty decent. Just a quick correction, the pistols have Shred, not rending Other interesting rules: The transsonic weapons automatically wound on a 6 to hit, in the first round of combat to wound rolls of 6 are AP 2, in subsequent rounds all attacks are AP 2 Infiltrators reduce WS, BS, I, and Ld of enemy models by one if they are witthin 6" Chorda-Claws give one of your CC attacks the Fleshbane rule, Ruststalkers come stock with a Chorda-Claw Ruststalkers and Infiltrators have a 4+ and a 6++, both have FNP, Infiltrators have stealth and infiltrate, Ruststalkers have FC The grenades of the Ruststalkers have the Haywire rule Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 @PourSpelur: Looks like you got your Murder Servitors! I'm too sleepy to read German right now, but those are looking awesome. Definitely gonna have to grab that Special Edition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frowbakk Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 It's looking like Doctrina Imperatives may buff Skitarii units like the old Sisters Faith rules used to do. With High Elf Archer legs and spare IG tank gunner torsos I'll be able to get a full unit of 10 Vanguard and 10 Rangers from each box... ...which will free up more funds for Sicarians, of course. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prophecy Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 I'm seeing necromunda arbites for inquisition codex potential. I think even I will would be interested in buying new....who knew gw could still accomplish that for me. Sadly the walkers are ugly and I will never buy another book ever but the infantry is a start.

spagunk Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Like the assassing bodies, but not the infiltrator heads. The hooded ruststalkers are much better looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InfestedKerrigan Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Hmm. I've liked all the models in the release so far up until the pics of the Quads. They feel out of place in that pic, to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 I like it. It's clunky, but in the right way for my taste. Also, apparently it's called the Onager Dunecrawler. Bonus points to the first person to kill one with an Onager Gauntlet ;) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfestedKerrigan Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 The Sentinel meets Grinder look it has just isn't meshing well aesthetically. The colored pic of the cockpit had me leaning that way. Seeing them alongside the rest of the release only serves to reaffirm. I don't think it needs to be as smooth as a Tau or Eldar Quad, but it does look more IG than AM, to me. Something that ties in better with the Knights would've been more desirable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frowbakk Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 If they commit the sin of only giving one gun to these walkers when the rules say they can shoot two, then I'll convert them out of Defiler legs and my old kitbashed enclosed Sisters of Battle Immolator turrets. For the rumored "three week release" I'm still not seeing any transport vehicles, new or otherwise in any of the pictures so far. Time to head down to Uncle Alric's Space Wolf Drop Pod Emporium and get the Skitarii Vanguard within 18" for shooting on turn 1. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PourSpelur Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Dammit! I really didn't want to, all logic says I shouldn't and the price is ridiculous but..... I LOVE THE CHICKEN WALKER! It's just the right amount of OTT to grab my attention and unique enough to keep it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfestedKerrigan Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Yeah, the BiPeds are pretty sweet. War Walker feel for Imperium without being too War Walkery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PourSpelur Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Also the sheer amount of over-engineering that it represents cracks me up. Problem: Lazcannon is too heavy for a single trooper to carry and use on the battlefield. IG solution: Staple the wheels from a wagon on the sides and have two dudes drag it through the mud. AdMech solution: two story tall, gyro balanced, nuclear powered, chicken legs. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 THE STORYTo mark the momentous release of the new Adeptus Mechanicus Warhammer 40,000 army, we've released a new novel entirely in the Omnissiah-approved language of binary! This brand new, and entirely not made-up book, follows the adventures of a young servitor who dreams of being a skitarii warrior. Unlike most of our novels, this story is written for, and by, a computer. Of course, reading in binary can be a little tricky at first, but by the 5th or 6th chapter we think you'll hardly notice. 00110001 is available as both as a hardback, and of course, as a digitally superior eBook edition.
