Mua-ha-ha "Veterans of the Long War" Suppliment

http://natfka.blogspot.ca/2014/01/the-long-war-supplement-veteran-skill.html

Looks like Tankhunting Havoc's and Fleet / Shred foot marines might be a thing.

Shred 1kSons (if it works with shooting???)
Fleet Beserkers?
Infiltrating Beserkers?

Stubborn.

unless the rest of them are super-cheap i don't see any point in making an over-costed unit more expensive.

I am thankful that Someone at GW is thinking of CSM. I'de much rather just have a 6.5 codex that includes the FAQ, nerfs the Heldrake and incorporates some much needed revisions or additions. Take what i can get i suppose.

We'll see when it lands.

Rumour has it USR upgrades are bought for the whole unit at once. "Fear" being the cheapest at 5 points for the unit, + 1 point per model for VotLW. So 15 points for a unit of 10 dubers.

Infiltrating Plasma guys (2 guns 1/2 pistols)

Tank Hunting 4xAutocannons 120 base for the squad with VotLW before any tank hunters "upgrade"

Would be interesting to see if it extends to vehicles.

this sounds awesome. and new chaos lord/csm box? sign me up!

It does sound interesting. Berserkers could never infiltrate in the old editions.. but i woukd like that option. Fleet would be.copl to.. and i wouldnt have to worry about that icon.

I m still way more interested in getting some scoring bikes/raptors or TERMINATORS. Thatd be exciting

Infiltrating marines is really appealing though.. coupled with.cultists you got yourself an lld style alpha legion army. Exactly the army i was building before it dissapeared

My brother was going to play Alpha legion. Tested the rules out in a couple of games. Best moment ever was during a bunker assault. He was the attacker and I was defending with my Black Templars. He infiltrated up and had first turn so moved close so second turn he could melta all my bunkers. I proceed to pile out of all the bunkers and bum rush him "its a trap"! Good times.

I dunno about the supplement though. Some of the options are good, but going to cut into a lot of points by having to give everything VotLW. Although guaranteed 20 man infiltrating/stubborn blobs is funny without having to take Huron.

Also looks like shred is just melee Mark   

Hmm.. intercepting havocs would be exciting.

Does effectively upgrade a power sword to the same effectiveness as a pair of lightning claws.

OMG if this turns out to be a good supplement I might just be the happiest 40k player ever! now all 50 of my marines might actually come out to play!!!!!!

The helldrake doesn't need a nerf just the balefamer

It would help alot if they put it back to a hull mounted weapon.. and not a turret. Im not complaining at all.. it just might help acceptance.

Hull mount, front arc only. Measure from the mouth.

I wouldn't cry if it dropped to AP4 either.....

But they better add an AV12/13 assault rhino.
