GENRAL
- Jervis was NOT the author, he specifically noted that some thought he was. In fact, Alessio and Gav Thorpe are the authors.
- The studio expects to release a Codex: Daemonic Legions next year. Nothing firm. It'll include tougher daemons (the rumor regarding the single Lesser statline/Greater statline in CSM is correct). In C:CSM, the summoned daemons are a bit weaker.
- There is the expectation in larger games that units from both Codicies will be used. He did not specify if it would be like Hordes/Beasts from WHFB. He just said large games could use parts of both.
- 104 pages
FLUFF
- Lots of new background
- This edition will include the major Chaos legions, but also focus on renegade armies, outside of the Eye. That's where a lot of the new background comes from.
ELITE
- Terminators: 30 Pts per model.
- Possessed: Not sure on exact cost, but a unit of 10 with an Icon of Tzeentch was listed at 300 points for the unit.
TROOPS
- Chaos Space Marines. Not sure of the changes here. The icons seem... pricey. There were two squads, both total 220 points.
.............1- 10 marines, aspiring champion w/ power weapon, meltagun and Icon of Khorne
.............2- 10 marines, aspiring champion w/ power fist, 2 plasma guns and Icon of Chaos Glory.
.............Same total cost, but the different equipment makes the icons seem pricey.
CULTS
- a unit of 9 Thousand Sons with a Sorcerer with Doom Bolt is 274 points - the sorcerer costs 60 Pts.
FAST ATTACK
- Raptors: 20 Pts per model
HEAVY SUPPORT
- Defiler, Gets Fleet, same point cost
- Obliterators. Heavy support, 0-1 is gone, gone, gone. Slightly more expensive though, by a handful of points [75][/b]
