Deathwing Knights get a new weapon option, so we get something at least close to the 30k Knights Cenobium. And their new helmets seem cool (although they look a little like grey knights). Gonna need a bunch of these so I can have full squads of alllll the options
Also... New Watcher model!! This one's got a cool incense burner staff thing.

The new models defiantly vape. Smoke everywhere!
The current Deathwing kit is really versatile, and I will be sad to see it go.I do like the 30K aesthetic and the shields look good. I think I prefer the old mace, but that could be nostalgia. Glad to see hood options. Gonna need a couple of boxes.
Would have rather had a new Belial, but Asmodai does look cool.
Very curious about how the Calibanite Sword and Shield option will be rules-wise. We already have Bladeguard, so I am, trying to think how they would be different.
Damage 3 swords would be cool. Maybe Anti-Infantry 2+

Will definitely miss the old kits flexibility, although I have enough leftover bits from several boxes I'll probably be alright. The shields and a more 30k aesthetic fit dark angels nicely, and more hooded options is always a plus. I like the new maces, but I think they lack the flavor of the old ones.
I've heard rumor we're still getting Belial and there's always the Christmas reveal, and something leading up to the codex reveal.
No idea what the swords will get, but I wouldn't mind anti infantry or damage 3 swords

He's got a really sweet new model. Hoping he'll get some playable rules now because I wanna see him on a table with Bladeguard or something cool

So Guy and I played Apoc last week. Ill make post for it. But He was running Dark angels. and they are the only unit Deathwing Knights that i have seen that has a 3+ save in that game. So. Maybe Deathwing knights will have a 2++, But likely a 3++ .
The new sculpt is awesome for Asmodai. I have to old model. and this is a huge upgrade.
