So there seems to be a leak in GW's Chinese production facility and the contents of the 6th ed starter set are out of the bag!
Thanks to spaint2k on Warseer for the translation!
The Forces of Chaos:
Chaos Lord: Power sword, plasma pistol, krak and frag grenades

Great news seeing Cultists in there!
ReplyDeleteWow! Sounds like an awesome set.
ReplyDeleteWell they needed something that screams loudly and dies in droves for the marines to feel good about themselves.
ReplyDeleteNice!
ReplyDeleteCSM, cultists and allied daemons? Happy dance time!
I hope this is the case, I need some termies for my astral claws, and if i get 3 of these, hopefully the dreads will take the place of my 3 current AoBR ones.
ReplyDeleteThis reads like a CSM Megaforce...
ReplyDeleteThe Termies work in Astral Claws, while the Cultists go straight into Tyrant Legion. Huzzah.
Well I definitely hope this is correct.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a really nicely sized starter set.
Me gusta mucho lo del Hellbeast y Chosen of the gods!
ReplyDeleteEspero que además del starter saquen un megaforce!!!
Looks like the dark angels are going to be plasma heavy as they should be. Maybe they will get their own version of vulkan.
ReplyDeleteis there any news on a rulebook?
