Rumors: The Rumor Section is gathered from the web and is not in any way information we receive from any manufacturer nor is it necessarily accurate. This section of the podcast is intended for entertainment purposes only.
- The Endtimes for Fantasy continues to heat up! In the latest preview video, it looks like the Dark Elves are making a play for power and civil war is going to erupt between the Elves. GW also drops hints that Khaine is coming out to play and that Gods will die, so that sounds pretty dramatic.
- There will be a decisive end to the war for the Phoenix Crown, and the army left over will be what is left of the Elves.
- Big changes to the magic phase after the End Times.
- Shield of Baal: Exterminatus is going to be the next book.
- The new GW CEO apparently wants to keep the limited edition releases coming and is looking at ways to scale up FW production to make their ranges a core part of the product line.

List Review
You can tankshock from reserves. If you deep strike, you’re coming from reserves. How do you tankshock with a deep striking vehicle? You place it on top of an enemy unit?
That should be totally legal. The enemy infantry unit moves away if they succeed. Or they can make a death or glory attempt and if they succeed you would stop 1″ in front of the unit.. hum.. where is that? ^^
In the 3rd edition Necron codex the monolith had an awesome rule, when it came in by deep striking if it landed on other models you moved the models out of the way and made room for the monolith lol
What is the wording for vehicles deep striking over enemy units? Are there different rules for skimmers deep striking or something in the rules that says they may not mishap?
It’s a rule in the liner section that says when ever they are forced end their movement over an enemy model you would move the skimmer so it’s not over the enemy anymore
Would that get you more than 1″ away though?
*skimmer section
It’s too bad the Raider can’t DS tank shock, it was a pretty fluffy concept and seems to have rules to support it, maybe next edition ….
Jeez, Fankie and Reece Should just make love already. I think thats why all the dick jokes happen in the podcast
I’d buy that for a dollar.
Novastar: Such an awesome idea, making some dog tags up! 🙂
The nashorn is pronounced “Nars-Horn”, they smoked Shermans from over 2kms away, if they were in a prepared position (had already run test shots to correct aim).
I’m guessing that the lightning claws themselves are transparent resin add-ons. The plastic claws have been removed, to get that lighting effect to work. Does your professional team include anyone with experience copying shapes in resin? If so, you guys could do some awesome weapon conversions with these kits!
