    What I would like to know is if the '04 rules upgrade book (Chapter Approved, iirc) would have all the rules in it that are going to be included in the codex updates? I would be tempted to pick up the Codexes right now if all of the updates hapened to be in it.

    I just can't wait for the new edition to come out -- I want to se what the new genestealer model looks like -- I'm hoping it's in the same vein as the new Tyranid look!

    i hope they dont change stealers that much, i think they look great the way they are, just that the old plastic models suck, cos they lack the options of the new plastic ranges

    uh there is a thread on portent.net showcasing the new stealers that are to come out and im srry to report but they look 95% the same as the plastic ones we have right now

    I think it was 2 years ago at Games Day, GW had a guy shouting out the entire story of the Horus Heresy, it was very entertaining and included one bit of information missed in that long account,

    Sanguinius didn't die in vain, he was not so completely outmatched by Horus, before he got sliced and diced, he managed to damage Horus' deamon armour. This helped the Emperor as, he was very much weakened from his long battle against Horus, where he held back, trying to turn he son back to the light, the chink in Horus' armour allowed the Emperor to stick his sword into the Fallen primarches body and kill him with a psychic shock. Abaddon then stole Horus' claw and the rest is history (future, whatever)

    I would say that the imperium is more or less ruled by a facist regime.

    lol u present that as if its fact lol captain zog but it is nothing but a rumor that goes on through out the imperium much like ppl in medieval timeswould completely over do stories of great feats done by heros slain in combat etc.

    According to some versions of the tale it was this wound that Sanguinius struck which opened a chink through the armour of Horus, enabling the Emperor to slay his enemy. The Blood Angels certainly say as much in their doctrine.
    -GW ~Death of Sanguinus~ story

    what a surprise this version of the story is the version of the blood angles, clearly glorifying the death of their primarch? mybe or mybe not, i will not say that this is fiction for sure as i do not know but dont go around presenting glorifyed tales in the fluff universe as facts of the actual event. the story of the emperor fighting horus and the story of Sanguinus' death dont fit together most probebly pointing out that the blood angels glorifyed his death. this is what i have concluded from the atricles read and u can conclude ur own belief just PM me and ill give u the articles.

    its known that deaths of great heros are always glorified and most curtainly by the mans own men. what would it do to the moral if they said "hey guys heresy is over imperium is in anarchy and our primarch died at the hands of horus foolishly , oh and we need u to still keep fighting onward to defend our realm and restore order"

    believe what u will but do not enforce ur views on others. again PM if u want the accounts of the events.

    Oh its ok, i do have plenty of fluff related to the event, i was just pointing out a bit of info that often included in the tales around that fight, i really should have put that it was not a definite fact but i didn't.
    The GW guy that was telling the story did lean further towards glorifying the events as he told the story to the masses sitting in the NIA and was telling it more from the perspective of a scribe taking peoples accounts and trying to make a good story rather than necessarily telling the whole truth.

    It was a time of great glory of course so deeds are exagerrated.

    true true, i sometimes like the tales of glorifyed events but for this instance i just have seen SOOO many BA players brag about how BA saved all of the imperium blah blah blah and r the best.

    good day
