The new space marine codex

 

I got to look through the shiny new book at the store recently (yay for previews) but the first thing I noticed was that the cover is already coming off. Not good. I think I will photocopy the rules and use them to protect my book from unnecessary flipping.

I noticed auspex were gone. shame, I really liked the cheap price and the fact it kept infiltrators well away from my squads. Hellfire rounds for characters is nice, my fave is the aux grenade launcher. That weapon would be an excellent addition to a terminator captain. In fact, I have an old termie capt. with one mounted on the back of a power fist… Perhaps some conversions of twin lightning claws and an aux grenade launcher for my captain are in order…

So there is no upgrade for sergeants to veteran as they are considered vets already. Fine. No real choice wargear wise for them is a shame.

But I do like the idea behind special characters and the fact that white dwarf may get more of them in the future to give other chapters their own special rules…. (and it makes it dead easy long term too)
