News just in, direct from the Eye of Terror Looks like it might be a good time to pledge your allegiance to the dark powers of Chaos: 8 Legions are depicted as being in the new supplement, did yours make the cut? It looks like new rules may be on the way for Black Legion, World Eaters, Word Bearers, Iron Warriors, Death Guard, Emperor’s Children, Night Lords, and yes of course, Thousand Sons!
(Update: Alpha Legion added to video post publication) Will these be the rules Chaos players have been waiting for since 3rd edition 40k? Hopefully the answer to this question is a resounding YES!
More soon: More On The New Supplements: So Imperial Agents looks to feature Inquisition as that is the image that adorns the cover, however what that or Traitor Legions will actually contain are still shrouded in the fog of rumor. December also sees more books on the way that all Chaos Space Marine and Imperial commanders should immediately be adding to their Gift Lists. We’ll have more details on all of these for you soon, but for the moment, here’s a tantalising glimpse into the covers of the future: There is speculation that the reason GW would drop TWO supplements in the same week (or even this close to each other) would be because they are fundamentally changing how the base army works. So are we looking at a Curse of the Wulfen (Wrath of Magnus) supplement to introduce the T-Sons and another supplement like the Angels of Death (but traitor legion style) to update Chaos to a new standard? And what of the Agents book, should we expect to see Inquisition along with perhaps Grey Knights, Assassins, or GASP even Sisters of Battle?? Or will it just be an actual analog printing of Codex Inquisition which is only available in (and has the same cover as “Agents”? The Magic 8 ball of previous trending releases can not help us today folks as Games Workshop looks to be switching their style up for their holiday release schedule.
What we know right now:. Five new kits are on the way for Chaos and the new Wrath of Magnus Supplement. Judging by the Magnus teaser on Friday and the lack of pre-orders on GW’s site, these models will go on sale November 25th. The Thousand Sons have access to some sort of Rotor weapon for both their Terminators and Power Armored marines. New hobby supplies ensure everyone can get armies up and running in no time!. There is a second supplement on the way titled “Traitor Legions”.
GW Has confirmed the new Thousand Sons will go on pre-order Nov 25th. It appears at long last Chaos, is indeed back! More as we know it folks. The Thousand Sons Hobby and Model Lineup: envira-gallery id=”156437″ We had received images of what looked to be a new codex supplement Friday night, but were reluctant to publish them, however now they are making their way across the web. It appears to be from the new White Dwarf, however there is no way to confirm that this is an actual product shot at this time. If this IS actually happening it would mean that Games Workshop would be dropping TWO supplements in the same week (or so)!
However I am sure Chaos fans would not mind this sort of attention at all! Source: and the image that was submitted to Spikey Bits (which is a bigger file size): Now the only reason I can imagine that GW would drop TWO supplements in the same week (or even this close to each other) would be because they are fundamentally changing how the base army works. Which again I am sure most Chaos players would not mind as well. So are we looking at a curse of the Wulfen supplement to introduce the T-Sons and another supplement like the Angels of Death (but traitor legion style) to update Chaos to a new standard? Go On Switch Your Style Up! LVO 40k Drama & Interview With The Champ: Episode 136. Spikey Bits is site about the hobby of tabletop wargaming.
It is our mission to bring you the latest from the miniature wargaming scene, from narrative missions, hobby how to tutorials, battle reports, unboxings and reviews, retro flashbacks, news, rumors and more. We mainly cover Warhammer 40k, Fantasy, Age of Sigmar, Warmachine, Hordes, X-Wing, Infinity, Horus Heresy, and Star Wars Armada. We'll show you all the aspects of the hobby from converting and painting models to actually playing the game.
Ever since Black Library went to fixed format epub3 files (as opposed to the regular format epub and mobi files they used to use), their digital products are all but unusable for me. The best and most lightweight readers refuse to recognize the format, you can't read the same thing on large (tablet/laptop/pc) and small (phone) screens (and they charge separately for both, where as before for one payment you could download epub or mobi, and both worked equally well on everything), and overall it's just a mess. Their recommended player is more an ebook shill than a reader to view your own files with as well. It's a nightmare. If you're using apple, the ibook stuff is supposedly fine. But if no, I'd definitely recommend downloading the sample files before purchase to make sure they work on all your devices, because while they seem to work alright for some people on some machines with some players, crippling problems are not at all uncommon. And it's not even just BL being bad at digital, fixed format ebooks are just a bad idea in general and always cause these kind of problems, and epub3 is just a bad format that causes problems everywhere and is basically a dead end format choice.
It would be as if GW started offering a paid web service using Silverlight. Epub3 is a bad, hasslesome ebook format that amplifies the coding weaknesses of those who adopt it, with poor portability and that has always lagged behind the promises and expectations of its proponents. Epub is fine, it's epub3 that's terrible. Especially when the publisher is trying to pushed fixed formatting, as they're doing now (ie, specific page layouts, instead of just text and pictures in order which your reader can display however fits best on your particular screen). This is a relatively recent switch over, some time around age of sigmar or not too long before it, I think. I used to buy a lot of Black Library digital products (short stories, fluff pamphlets, dataslates, the black legion supplement, etc), but the new formats are just awful and I don't anymore. I really got burned on the AoS book, which I payed full price for and is practically unusable.
'perhaps the Ruinous Powers favour you.?' Fortunately for me, my regular opponent is a Death Guard player, so I can't wait for some Slaanesh on Nurgle action It would be cool to see a few battle report on Path of Glory from you Castigator ether on your blog or posted on here. I'll see if I'm able to get this. Not really a computer type person, just as long as my lap top work then all fine.
Wouldn't mind useing this for a few games & just add some cool background to a few my units I'd love to post up my battle reports, but as much as I try to keep them short, my battle reports tend to be a bit too long for the forum.

Ok, after seeing the list itself, I will definitely write up a modification for these rules for my homebrew codex. Since it won't be interacting with the main rules much, I might even get more people interested in trying out my rules (which while not super helpful for game balance, will be massive for proofreading and confusing/unfun rules). This product has me legitimately excited. I don't have an e-reader of note and have never purchased a digital product from black library, what should I do to make it work out?
In us burns a fire for vengeance that will only be quenched when we stand triumphant over the smoldering ruins of Terra. Our laughter on that day will haunt their survivors till the end of time. We will stride forth victorious through the shattered gates of their fortress, holding high aloft the defiled corpse of their rotting god as our prize.

I have Calibre, and for whatever reason it didn't read this file properly when I used it. The freeware program is the only one out of the few I tried which display the format as intended.
Edited by Venomlust, 03 December 2015 - 08:45 PM. What i like is that the Boon chart is simple, straitghforward and less cluttered. I like the three god speciffics Rewards that sends you to a small chart for your own God, and nearly all of the God specific boons are, maybe not stellar or awesome, but IMO good, at least there is no terrible ones.
I like the idea for the Khorne one that you double the dices you have when you DtW. Maybe those are teasers of what we could have in the hypotetic new Codex? The idea of units gaining a Once per game boon is also nice an could work really simply; If the Champ kills another character in duel, either 1) roll on the Boons chart for him, 2) Roll on the Lesser reward for the whole unit, might be interesting.
