I see GW are bringing out this new Imperial army, is anyone interested in them?
They do look cool and I like the customizing option you get with them, I'd use them as apart of my guard army as a special force.
I'm looking at getting the command Squad as the berets fit with my Storm Trooper squads but then again, I do want to wait just in case GW bring something awesome out for the Guard (Holding out for new Vosties...Not going to happen).

I own 30 kasrkins, so I am thinking of getting a box of the new ones and using them as a command squad. I really like the idea of a storm trooper drop platoon. In fact, the points reduction has influenced my list for the kill team league that is starting this week. I have gone for 10 STs, 2 with meltas, and 5 ratlings. Trying to get them painted up.

Woah. I haven't bought anything IG GW related in a while, but this might just go into my collection next time I get my wages paid!

New armour . Looks kind of ugly but I think I'll have to build one.

That is the IG way. Aesthetic value is xenos heresy. I don't think I will pick one up, I have enough models to last me ages. I also don't want to blow my budget before the IG codex is out, then not have enough to get a possible new tank.

This thing looks like someone captured an Ork truck and decided to copy it.

They actually look mildly Chaos Guard to me. Must be the helmet spikes and arrows on their armor.
I have 60 Kasrkin ... somewhere. If I ever find them, I'll use them, but it's pretty unlikely at this point.
I like the idea of the volley gun -- finally, the Guard gets something akin to a squad automatic weapon!

The Astra Militarum! What a fantastic name!! Has anyone else seen the new plastic Ogryns we've got coming soon?! Remarquable models! I'm going to hold out until our codex is released before ordering just on case but this has definitely rekindled my fondness for the hobby. The Taurox (apart from the tracks) is at the top of my bucket list. Hopefully they'll do something about those god awful space hobbits wielding Barretts though...

I just noticed there is no android digital edition for the Stromtrooper book. LAME!

I got the Codex and some Scions today, I am rather pleased. There is a decent post over on Dakka if you want some details. I am rather liking the idea of mass Scion drops that can score. I am probably going to go along to the beginner night this week with a crazy list, just to mess around and see what the latest crop of recruits is like. I was thinking 30 Scions, a command squad with commissar, Marbo (for a last hurrah), 10 rough riders and some random other stuff.
