They're actually quite cool looking at them 360 - Just wish that T3 would go away. Really interested to see if anyone has any luck with them. Maybe stuck in an Allied Land Raider?

Well to be fair it's pretty unlikely someone is going to waste high strength firepower on them so long as those crazy dunestalkers are on the table. They can get some brutal firepower, and are going to be attracting the s6+ shots first I'd think.

oh man... that icarus array is nasty: "The Onager Dunecrawler has some awesome weaponry at its disposal, including the Icarus Array, which looks fantastic in my own opinion. It literally can according to the sample codex, take down two flyers per round. Once during your opponents with interceptor, and then during your own shooting phase. While the weapon looks expensive, the Onager itself relatively cheap, and can come in squadrons of 3. Add in that it can benefit from Doctrina Imperatives and you have a winner in this walker. Previous Onager Dunecrawler Information natfka.blogspot.com/2015/04/the-onager-dunecrawler.html Note that the information sent in below does match up with what I have seen on my own sample download of the Skitarii codex. So this is all officially released material. via an anonymous source on Faeit 212 Just in case you did not have access to the digital sample. I dug up these from the glossary of the sample codex. Eradication Beamer 0-9" S10 AP1 heavy 1 9-18" S8 AP3 heavy 1, Blast 18-36 S6 AP5 heavy 1, Large Blast Twin linked heavy phosphor blaster 36" S6 AP3 heavy 3 Lumingen-if the target suffers a wound, glance or pen, the unit gets a -1 to cover this phase. Nuetron laser 48" S10 AP1 Blast concussive Cognis heavy stubber 36" S4 AP6 heavy 3 Cognis-When making snap shots, the BS is counted as 2 instead of 1 Icarus array is a twin icarus autocannon with built in gatling rocket launcher and a built-in Daedalus Missile Launcher. any of all can be fired in the shooting phase. if you use the interceptor rule with the autocannon during the enemy turn, you can still fire the other weapons during your turn, even at different targets Here are its three weapons Daedalus Missile Launcher 48" S7 AP2 heavy 1 Skyfire Gatling Rocket Launcher 48" S6 AP4 heavy 5, ignores cover, skyfire Twin Icarus Autocannon 48" S7 AP4 heavy 2, interceptor, skyfire, twin-linked"

Via BoLS just now... "Info on the second Ad Mech codex: Codex Cult Mechanicus has started to leak - Come check it out! First let’s catch up with the previous information on Codex Cult Mechanicus in a recap from the past few weeks. via Atia on Bolter & Chainsword 4-8-2015 via Sad Panda on Dakka Dakka: “As mentioned elsewhere, this summer on the 40K-side of things is mostly about the folks from Mars (but no (global) campaign), as well as a few 1-week-releases (think Necrons). And of course, the new Fantasy kicking off Q3.”via Lords of Wargaming, facebook: April/May It’s Admech, but there will be two codices. Also tanks will be walkers.From LowG facebook “They are not actually Admech. That codex will release later. The books will be Skatarii and Cult Mechanicus.” “Supplements, but models as well.” also, i’ve found this URL re-directs today Codex: Cult Mechanicus www.games-wor…-mechanicus-enggallery_79873_10492_46.png Codex: Cult Mechanicus (eBook) www.games-wor…echanicus-ebookgallery_79873_10492_9068.png Codex: Cult Mechanicus (iPad) www.games-wor…mechanicus-ipadgallery_79873_10492_7181.png Datacards: Cult Mechanicus www.games-wor…-mechanicus-enggallery_79873_10492_927.png Atia on the Electro-Priests: 4-9-2015 we will get FULGURITE ELECTRO PRIESTS www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/…lectro-priests…the release schedule is skitarii > eldar > maybe dark angels (remember, we only have a Interrogator Chaplain re-direct) > Cult Mechanicus (as we have working URL’s for the Codex and Datacards) And here is today’s latest: via Captain Citadel 4-20-2015 Cult Mechanicus is coming. Their troops will be the Electro-priests that everyone has been raving about for weeks. From the looks of it, we’ll also finally see the Imperial robots that compliment Forge World’s existing range, and other all new exotic units."

hmmmm so they're pretty much doing the Tempestus / Guard thing they did before... lead with the supplement and then follow with the full codex after the "new shiney!" sales taper off to double dip...

From Faeit... guess it's another mini-dex rather than including the previous units...hmmmmm
"New Information regarding the Cult Mechanicus is here. There has been lots of rumors regarding the models that will be in this codex, whether it will incorportate Forgeworld, if the Skitarii will be a part of it and so on. Today we have some very solid answers.
Please remember that these are rumors, and from a very credible source.
via an anonymous source on Faeit 212 Cult Mechanicus codex is coming, but I do not have a release date. What I do know is that it is 80pgs long, and is not a full codex like SM, Eldar, etc. Instead its similar in size and unit count to the Skitarii codex. and no, the Skitarii and Forgeworld Mechanicus are not part of this codex. Their allies are same as the armies of the imperium."
