[King of the Elves]

Necrons and Tyranids do what they want, they are the honey badger of space.

 Also Necrons are just Tomb Kings in space.

Well if you read the latest Empire army book you will see that the Tomb Kings came to unite with the humans to fight against the Vampire Counts, soooo.... sound familar?

Most likely Alliances and Terrain purchasing will not make into tournaments.  At least the rumor mill instances anyway.

I think terrian would add too many complications to tournaments, by alliances do you mean being able to take a detachment from another codex? Because that is an added mechanic i would love to see in tournaments, surd it will probably lead to overpowered combos but i guess we will see

[Loranus]

Doubles tournament with allies. So I have Space Wolves,Blood Angels, Grey Knights,And Imperial Guard Versus Chaos Space Marines, Chaos Daemons, And Dark Eldar.

Most likely Alliances and Terrain purchasing will not make into tournaments.  At least the rumor mill instances anyway.

This reflects my initial thoughts without seeing the rules or talking to anyone (with respect to Singles events anyhow).

I will say that I am excited about the variety this may add to our tournaments though.  It also allows far more distinction between a "casual" event and a "more serious" event.

Doubles tournaments will almost certainly incorporate some aspects of all this.

[Benjamin]

I have my preconceptions about what will and won't work, but I do believe Sam and I both are reserving public judgment until we actually have the rulebook.

[tilarium]

I'm being hopeful that I can include an inquisitor or witch hunter in my IG forces again... I miss that

[King of the Elves]

Just put in a order for the dice with the holder and tin. I think the lasgun clip tin is just SO cool. I would pay $15 for just the tin, then you get 12 dice and holders! SO pumped for next saturday!!!

[King of the Elves]

Chase, real quick will the tape measure and dice be available for saturday? Cuz I noticed that they are not avaible for advance order on GWs website and in the new White Dwarf they did not say a release date. Thanks in advance.

[Chase]

The tape measure will be available on the 30th unless the date they sent me is incorrect (and it isn't).

The dice + tin will be available on July 28th.

The dice in the las gun clip might only be available with the Gamer's Edition.  I'm not sure what the other dice tin will look like and I did not have time to read the WD tonight.

[King of the Elves]

It does say in WD that it comes with all 3, but it does seem to good to be true I guess we will all find out on saturday

From GW on Facebook, not sure if this applies to FLGS' and GW locations:

"Due to problems with the warp, the limited edition dice sets and the servo-skull tape measure - as shown in White Dwarf this month - have been delayed. (These are standard sets, not the red ones that come with the Gamers' Edition.) We'll let everyone know as soon as they're available to order, but for now please accept our apologies. Now, to purge some Daemons..."

[King of the Elves]

well... that sucks

[MM3791]

Almost half of the 40k armies have no access to psychic powers, how do you get access to the new psychic discipline cards unless you take psychic allies? It seems that both allies rules and psychic powers are centric to the new edition and almost certainly play off each other. Only one more week until final confirmation!
