Black Templars Leaks

Today we got leaks for the Black Templars units.  Initial thoughts?  It'll be very nice for our army.  I'll do some more analysis in the next couple days, but for now...enjoy!


EDIT:  Now that the books have been released, I am taking down the leaks.  Enjoy 8th Edition!

The Black Templars 101 is back!

I would be willing to bet my chainsword that if you are here, you know that 8th Edition is right around the corner.  The official release date has been confirmed to be on June 17th, 2017 and the Universe crackles in anticipation.  The whole game is getting a complete shakeup and every single codex is getting rewritten from the ground up.  We haven't seen something of this scale since 3rd Edition, but there was half of the armies.  So far, from what has been leaked by Games Workshop on their Facebook page, looks pretty good.  I am still undecided on the Primaris Marines, but that is a totally different story.  My Black Templar brethren seem to be decidedly against them for various reasons, but if they are decent statwise, I don't see a reason to cut ourselves down at the knees.  I don't really care for their new armor though. 

Nevertheless, let's get to the point here...the BT 101 guide!  It still blows me away how many hits this guide has, even though its several editions old.  It generates several emails a week and one of the most consistent requests I have received is to update this guide.  Guess what?  Its finally happening!  With the game getting completely reworked, with all fractions starting from scratch, what better time to get this guide back off the ground?  It will be an evolving piece of tactica, as no one player in the world will ever know how best to run a faction in the short period after release.  We still can get something going to help the new or returning Black Templars players out there.  It might generate some discussion or outside perspectives to further enhance it going into the future!

I'll see you on the 17th!

Holding Pattern...

5/16/2017

Hello everyone!  As everyone most certainly already knows, 8th Edition is right around the corner.  With vague confirmations of the new edition being released sometime in June, that puts pretty much everyone in the game in a holding pattern.  Which is bad news for tournament organizers, since I suspect there to be a large amount of people who would rather just wait for 8th to release than continue playing in 7th.  I had a tournament planned for the beginning of June that I was rather excited for, but I don't know if I am in the "excited to play an old edition" camp.

With that being said, a whole new reboot of the game is definitely looking interesting (similar to how 5th Edition did it) and refreshing my desires to get this website updated for the huge influx of returning players that are likely to come back into the game.  We have to wait for the new rules, obviously, but everyone's codex is going to be starting from scratch...just like it was in 3rd Edition.  Black Templars specific units have been confirmed to exist by GW's 40k page, so don't worry.  When all this happens, we'll all be here and in it together.  I'm excited to get the BT 101 guide back off the ground.  :D
