Five 2013 Rumours for Warhammer 40K that Never Happened

Warhammer 40K Rumours that Were Wrong or Fake

I started this block late in 2012. When I did, the interwebz were going made over a spilled release list detailing all Games Workshop releases for Summer 2013, including plastic Sororitas and more. It was an expertly made fake, complete with product codes, etc… . The fake rumours in 2013, in contrast, haven’t been nearly […]

Rules Conundrum – Black Templars and Allies

Black Templars Allies

This is easily.. very easily.. one of the most bizarre RAW/RAI disputes I’ve come across in a long time. Do not enter without your most detail-obsessed mindset. First things first, without a doubt, among the most surprising things about the new Space Marines Codex is the fact that the Black Templars Space Marines – former masters of […]

Aaron Dembski-Bowden

Blood and Fire. Aaron Dembski-Bowden has Black Templars Reclusiarch Grimaldus join the last stand of Celestial Lions Space Marines Chapter in the closing days of the Third War for Armageddon (shortly after the events of Helsreach). If this isn’t some of the most iconic, epic Warhammer 40K material ever, I don’t know what is. Blood […]

Book Review – Helsreach by Aaron Dembski-Bowden

Helsreach

In time with Apocalypse 40K, Black Library released the Armageddon collected volume, which includes Aaron Dembski-Bowden’s two Black Templars stories set during the Third War for Armageddon: Helsreach and Blood and Fire. Helsreach is arguably Black Library’s most iconic Black Templars story. Black Templars fans venerate the book with an almost religious fervour. I thus approached this book with […]

Still No New Special Characters for 6th Edition?

Ezekiel Dark Angels Space Marines Librarian Special Character

A few months ago, when everybody was flicking through the new Codex for Chaos Space Marines, I noted there were no new special characters in the first 40K 6th Edition Codex. #1 – Warhammer 40K 5th Edition and Special Characters This was – and is – quite a major break from what everyone was accustomed […]

Black Templar Rumours

Warhammer 40K Black Templar Space Marines

There are some (highly vague) Black Templar Rumours about via MarikLaw of Warseer.com. I am not the one to verify or dispute these. Make of it what you will. I mainly post them here because they come in a nice Q&A format one rarely finds in hastily written rumours! Remember that rumours are just that. […]
