Space Marines are the last army that need new minis but at least they are starting to actually look half decent. The Techmarine and Thunderfire Cannon looks crazy. But whats with the new land raider? It looks exactly the same as the others but i bet it will cost something ridicolous like £50.
...Didnt SM get a new codex about a year ago?
They pretty much all look the same as before, except the Techmarine which looks quite cool. Not sure what his large, four-pronged weapon-arm is. The Thunder Cannon looks cool, but looks pretty Orky IMO...
Ouch, those guys rock. I love the idea that veterans now come from all sorts of disciplines. Any idea what will be different in the new codex?
oh no i can't get on they need my password and username help me those pic's are like a drug i must see
If you can't get in heresy, you can see them all Here
I HATE space marines!
And i REALLY don't think they need a new book.
cause its what the kids will buy
GW = Space Marines.
when I worked there, we sold more space marines than almost everything else combined.
they are the "flag ship" army for 40k, which is GW's main seller for younger gamers who annoy their parents into buying them the figures they want, so it makes sense from a business perspective to tweak them every few years, as it means all the existing marine players (i admit i have a sizeable salamanders force myself) need to replace the codex at least.
and i will likely end up buying whatever new units they release, just so i can have one of everything.
I wonder if it's because the old codices are not 100% compaible with the new 40k rules? if that is the case, I'd be well p***ed off if I bought the Daemons of Chaos book!
i doubt that will be the case, i admit that GW get a lot of stuff wrong, but I dont think they would drop that ball so obviously.
i think that its just a combo of marines being their biggest seller, plus the fact that they were last re-done around xmas 2004 (if i remember rightly), so they are no longer the bestest army GW do, and they want to restore the balance back to the Emperor's finest...
ive heard they are planning on axeing the 2 special weapons per tac squad, which really messes up my Salamanders force, as I have 2 flamers in each squad. mmm. fire.
dude, get back to work... i can see you slacking from this end of the office!
hehe.
does this mean we will no longer be friends if i buy some plastic drop pods?
finally im free of your shadow!
Space marines GW,s business model for success.They look ok but nothing special at least they are actually producing minis for dropships more monkees for my Eldar to destroy!
Cool stuff. Though not entirely needed. Heh.
It is rumored that the sales of marines are enough to fund almost everything else... Not sure I believe it thou, no denying they are the most popular.

I'm getting tired of waiting for the new necrons.
New SM are unnecessary. They could add new units without giving them a complete new version.
By the way, is there rumours about a new Logan Grimnar mini ? He basically dissapear after the eye of terror campaign.

when i worked for GW we sold more marines than everything else put together, because they are GW's baby and are on most of ther imagery.
so i wouldnt be suprised if this was true myself.
