GK Rumors

Maybe this is common knowledge, but today I was bored and searched for GK rumors on the net. Supposedly the GK's are getting lots of lovin in the next forge world release. This is what I found

I did some more looking and no one had any pics from forge world open day that was held recently with any new GK stuff, but it would be nice to see if they come out with anything else in addition to the LR and Inquisitor models they have recently released.

On a side note forge world has posted some new reaver titan accessories available for pre order on their site. They look pretty sweet.

It would be really cool if these "rumors" come to fruition. FW DW upgrades in the same line of Red Scorpions would be awesome!

Thanks for sharing the info Brother C.

I am always hopefull regarding this subject. However, I feel that this post should as stated be taken with a big dose of salt. It doesn't seem to have a very official feel to it in my opinion. I know it's a rumour and doesn't need to be official, but I hope you understand what I mean.

I totally agree Constantine. The fact that there were no new GK pics at the FW open day makes me think that what we're gonna get from the VRAKS III book are rules for the already released LR and Inquisitor, but who knows maybe there will be more

BTW the thread also mentions that the next Imperial army of focus from forgeworld might be adeptus mechanicus. I know that should peak the interest of atleast one of our members!!!

Hmmmmmm..... Which member could that be?

*CoughKlomster, cough, cough!!!* LOL!!!!!

Am I hopeful about the the rumors? Yes. Will I be holding my breath? No, 'cuz i wanna live. Brother C you better get some Buckley's for that strange cough of yours.

Is something wrong constantine, you seem to have a terrible cough....

If the next forge world army would be mechanicus, i would... um... i have no idea what i would do.

Although, when i sent a mail to forge world they told me this, actual quote.

"...we won't do any adeptus mechanicus in the near future"

Although that was a few months ago, i don't think near future is just a few months for forge world.

But if this seems to get more rumours i would gladly send them my (mostly) finished adeptus mechanicus codex.

*yuck!!!!! That Buckley's tastes disgusting.....but it works!!!*

Sorry about the coughing brothers

Rumours are frustrating arent they Brothers!!! One source says one thing then another says something different

I was just reading BOLS and they are all over the new IG codex right now

Stay with me... This IS relevent to us.
All throughout the article 40K TACTICA: By the Authority of the Immortal Emperor of Mankind... they are talking about how Daemon Hunter and Whitch Hunter forces can enhance their forces and be influenced by their new "orders" rules.

This turn of events is making me nervous that our status as an allying force not an indipendant one, is not about to change any time soon

My belief and this article also fit in with the FW release of the DH inquisitor and LR, as these are models that will complement a guard force well according to that article. I think at best our future holds an update to our codex, but unfortunatly I believe the glimmer of hope that was us getting our own codex is fadeing

As far as i believe.

Grey knights will turn into some kind of forge world army, just like death korps.

Or they just remove the army alltogether, keeping thefine armies of the inquisition as some poorly written flavour fluff for space marines and will eventually fade the grey knights and sob's into nothingness.

If that is the truth i will go down guns blazing, nemesis force weapon in one hand, ohmnissian power axe in the other, and a priest on my head. (Just to get in some witchunter stuff)

But this is not a thread where we talk about depressing thoughts, here we discuss rumours!
Where grey knights get a new codex that is awesome and plastic grey knights and sisters come in packs of 5's and 10's.

AND!!!!

FW makes amazing GK GM models and allows you to choose from a large selection of weaponry at no extra cost.

which is helpful because then you can have different GK GM models for each of your FW resin GKT retinue squads (one is shooty and one is assaulty)

and of course FW will be taking a cast of my upcomming GK Chaplain so everyone can have one

I love this positive thinking rumour stuff!!!!!

'Rumor' has it that Phil Kelly has already started on the DH codex. Just rumor though. Awhile back GW powers-to-be stated that Both the DH and WH codices would focus more on the GK's and SoB's. I'm confident that we'll get a stand-alone codex. Just not any time soon.

Any love is better than no love so whether its an update, codex, or just FW lovin the more we get the less likely our codex is going to go the way of the squats

Quite a while back it was stated that DH would definately be receiving a new codex, continueing to allow the standalone army, and NOT a joint =][= codex that alot of people wanted (mainly those who wanted Xeno Hunters added again) this is the main reason they are leaving the codex as it is now and not doing much errata/faq stuff because they stated they wanted the changes done properly as a whole, not as a peicemeal bandage.
We are still looking at either very late 2009 or even anytime 2010 though (at the earliest), since at the time they recognised other armies with bigger problems to be fixed first!

Well, if player opinion at BoLS is any indication I thought 'our' codex was in the greatest need. If any army is worse off than us the people who play them have my most sincere and deepest sympathies.

I think the army in question was Dark Eldar, who while not uncompetitive, have very old, ugly and outdated models and rules.

That being said as far as I know GK are actually a more popular army than DE, so screw them!!
