From Faeit: "We had this information a few days ago, but now a leaked image is making its rounds showing the new Magna Grapples for the Blood Angels Dreadnoughts. The picture was put up at the following link. Really not sure who to credit for it, but FuriosoLibrarian had found it. postimg.org/image/s46w6mmlz/ es.tinypic.com/view.php?pic=29xu9v8&s=8#.VH8iJTHF9dU We had the same information on Sunday, and it caused quite the stir. Here is a link to that article Changes to Blood Angels Wargear Is Coming There are also more leaked images here from Forge the Narrative. www.facebook.com/ForgeTheNarrative?ref=hl

from faeit:
"Some in the community have the White Dwarf in hand, and those details are starting to come out. So we get a first look at the Sanguinary Guard and what they will be in the new Blood Angels codex. It looks like there are some cheaper options in there, as Sanguinary Guard used to be 200pts base, and now can go up to a 10 man squad. Very cool.
Please remember that this is early information and must be considered rumors until we get the White Dwarf in hand.
via ShadowWolf32387 on Faeit 212 I thought you might want to know this. I do have the WD coming out Saturday and I can confirm to you that Sons of Sanguinius is only a painting guide in the same vein of Companies of Fenris and the ones released for Dark Eldar and Tyranids. It will still be in paperback like the others and the Sanguinary Guard edition just gets it in hardback instead. Sadly, it's not a supplement.
Also, after some time with a magnifying glass, the WD preview page for Sanguinary Guard shows: 165 points base Can upgrade to 10-man for 35pts/model All have the "Encarmine sword" as stock, but may take an "Encarmine axe" for free Still have Fearless Lose Red Thirst in favor of Furious Charge Death masks are now 1 pt/model as opposed to 5 pts/model Can still take power fists, plasma pistols, inferno pistols Chapter banner is now 5 pts cheaper
The new tactical box does feature the heavy flamer and a heavy bolter. No mention of the missile launcher. And grav guns ARE in the box, meaning grav weaponry made it to the blood angels. The hand flamers and inferno pistols will still be in the codex as well since the tactical squad has them in the kit."

If that stuff is true that sounds pretty good for BA. Seems like a good day of rumours and news for a local BA/Night Lords player.

given the drop in points in sanguinary guard alone I save 125 points off my list already... ...might be able to get that death company dread after all (since I have one dread size base still from my custom bases)

I'm excited about the thought of Heavy Flamer/Flamer/Hand Flamer squads in a drop pod. Because fire makes it good.

Yeah, if tacticals get heavy flamers for Blood Angels I'd actually use them again, hehe. I'm excited for the new SG price tag as well might make them competitive again outside of a certain MSU list currently available for them.

Tom is not going to win next saturday... Blood Angels might, but it wont be by tom's dice. Second funny note. FOr those who picked up the Deathstorm or were bad and clicked that link. Cassor The Damned (Death Company Dread) has no Strength. .... 6 Attacks on the Charge but Str 2(furious Charge) Ap 2 Shred. Wonder if they will FAQ it? Also. The Deathstorm Marine bases are bigger. But they were made in 2013. or so were mine looking at the bottom of them. Maybe it was a production mistake. and now they are trying to get rid of them.
