Preorders for our Codex and new Start Collecting box next week!

Finally!

New start collecting looks great, since all I have is cabal/coven

Awesome! Strong hints that Kabals, Cults and Covens will have a new mechanic for fitting together into one army. Also that reavers, wyches, succubus and venom have all been boosted (and are forming a new SC! box). Looking forward to the first previews tomorrow!

So, Evil Space Elves, does that mean you can start talking about it now!?

It's finally our time! I can't believe I've lived to see the day!

I'm so excited!!!

Why are there three stacks of cards? Tactical, strats and what...

Why not make three new boxes? One for each faction.

2 of those boxes would be substantially less popular, I'm sure. That, limited shelf space, unnecessary packaging costs, and the fact we're already a niche army makes 3 SC boxes a tad fanciful. Hell, getting special dice was even a fanciful wish.

The countdown until the DE fanbase realising they cant stop being salty begins!!

I will get that box. Looking forward to more news

It was just wishful thinking. Drukhari dice would be really great. But if they do not come, the daughters of khaine dice will do.

The new box looks good. A shame that I only need one squad of wyches from it. A start collecting coven box would be great, though.

The new box set looks nice. Though I had no problem with the last one either. Cant wait to get my hand on the new codex..

Oh yea, maybe these are some artefacts from Prefall-Era, or some orders like guards

There are 3 stacks and that sir, is a damn good spot!

How amazing would it be if we had antipsychic cards to use in the opponents psychic phase for retaliation and spell blocking? OK I'm getting carried away now but damn, I'm excited.

It's less money saved.
A venom is not really helpful with 10 Wyches and 1 Succubus.

I liked the old one better :/

You still have the Splinter Assault, which does the Raider+10 kabs.

Now you have access to both.

Finally here! I will have to resist the urge to constantly refresh Warhammer Community every day this week.

Ahh finally, after all those false hopes from getting our codex soon after LVO it's finally here. Next two weeks is going to feel like a long wait but man it will it be great to have it in hand finally.

New start collecting box seems less useful than our old one, but I also already got two of our old start collecting boxes so I welcome GW changing it up.

I'm not usually a fan of the collector's edition codexes, but the cover art for ours does look really good.

The third stack of cards could be the combat drugs? But it looks as is there are more than six cards. More new drugs?

I cannot be the only one who saw that they chopped us into 3 factions that don't interact.

Pre order next weekend! So the weekend after that the codex drops. Finally!
Anybody got an idea how much the codex or the cards or the collectors edition will cost?

Looking forwards to trying my Wych Cult this edition. Just dusted off a load of models thinking of selling them then this hits!

No, you are not the only one.

a disparate raiding party drawn from several sources with multiple leaders vying for influence.

Here comes the "Innari: Drukhari expansion pack"

Do you want to expand your Innari army? We divide the Dark Eldar army into three parts to make it easier for you.

Do you play Dark Eldar? Bad luck. Make sure you buy at least three options of each troop and one HQ of each. if not, you're going to pay a whole codex to be able to use only a third of it.

Let's go Dark Eldar players! Let's comply with the tradition of having to pay double or triple the other factions to have the minimum required!

Let's wait and see what the new dex brings to us. We will have plenty of time afterwards to show our disappointment if it's the case.

Well, you're crying before even seeing the rules. Let's see first how they divide us (if at all) and then be salty about it.
