Rumors are spreading
The psykers claim to have seen the future once again. Rumors are spreading like wildfire."A new space wolves codex is around the corner"-they say. "August will be the wolf time"-they say. Not the end, but a new beginning for the great companies of Russ. Is it true? If yes, what will our eyes read? Will things stay the same? Will they color the old words with pointless art? Will we gain new knowledge? Or will we lose the wisdom of the old ones before us?
What will we see?
The mighty thunderhawk, must surely stay our only air vehicle.
Wolf scout Therikil reported that he discovered a new species of wolf-like creature lurking near the fang. Could this be a sign that the time is upon us? It will be glorious to have another lupus by our side! The Omens call to war and we shall answer with a savage roar!What new instruments of war shall we take into battle?
Firstly, brothers, I would like to say that our holy wargear is preserved by the wise iron priests, with technological magic and of the ancients. And as a true son of The Wolf, It gives me great pleasure to see the Xenos crushed with the might that the iron priests give us. Among other things, I love the smell of gun oil, the sound of a bolter, but yet...There are a few things that match the feeling of satisfaction that a good chain-sword, cutting a greenskin in two, gives. The blood spilling out of the wound like a fountain, the bones splitting under the bite of the metallic razor teeth...ah...the sudden high pitched sound it makes when it cuts trough to the other side. I let my thoughts carry me to a halt. Where was I?
Ah yes. The rune priests received a heartening message from Mars. A supply of a novel weapon type named "grav" is on the way. It sounds like some nonsense that an eldar might employ in battle. Or worse, the hated thousand sons. Rumor has it that the weapon turns the wearer's armor against him, making it heavy and crushing him. Bah, technology! The old way is the only way. Mark my words, those red robed lunatics on Mars are sending something new just to agitate us. But we will found a use for it. If this "grav" weapon isn't good enough to kill the enemy, we will use it to dig holes in the ground. Or perhaps we'll aim it at the sky and hope the moon falls on the foes. Ha ha!
That reminds me, reports from the most promising Iron priest on Fenris state that he is close to completing a restoration to a Space Wolves Relic. A Battle tank! This relic remains a mystery. The old priest won't let anyone even look at it. Blasted fool! That thing's probably been out of order since before the time of the Horus heresy. Hah! I hope it's an anti-aircraft gun.
What will we lose?
The Rune Priests lately have taken notice of a disturbance in the powers of nature. It's always worth it to investigate climate change, but this is different. It may weaken their control over it. And finally, as always the wolf banners and sacred relics of the chapter will be put in stasis to stay safe. Like I mentioned earlier, the omens tell of forthcoming change. It is our duty to preserve what banners we have until Leman Russ himself arrives to claim them.
What will we get?
- Cheaper units and tanks
- Grav weapons
- Logan Grimnar finecast
- Ragnar Blackmane finecast
- WG plastic clampack
- SW Relic Battletank plastic kit
- New wolf type unit
- the codex will not change too unlike the SM codex.
What will we lose?
- SW psychic powers
- Wolf banner
The Thousand sons are regrouping. This can only mean one thing, my brothers. Rejoice! Once more our enemy gathers! Once more they shall taste defeat! We will learn new ways to defeat them with our new codex! The Rubic marines will regroup and launch an all-out attack against us. Such is their folly, that they have forgotten a lesson learned a long time ago. Let them come. We will crush them!
But Remember brothers, young and old. All this is only rumors. Do not take my words to heart. They might not be 100% accurate. Some of these are just speculations. But If anyone dares to call me a liar, I will beat him until his face becomes bluer than a Tau's behind!
Next time "Steel Rain" vs "Tau" and "Wolfgang James" vs "Just_a_Justicar" (an ICT winner compatriot)
Until next time remember Prospero and…
