So the reaction on Facebook to the announcement of the new edition is frankly hilarious. Much mud slinging going on, people defaming or reaffirming their love for the NAF. The GW bashing is even funnier. It’s almost like most of the BB community is unaware of the death of the old world or the seeming biannual change in 40K rules.
But all that aside thought I’d start a thread for news and wishes for the new edition.
I’m liking the idea of throwers being more suited to passing than other players, but haven’t zoomed in far enough to see what the new rules are yet.

The starter is imperial nobles (who start skill heavy) And a combined orc and goblin team which has goblin bruisers (gains thick skull) And there are special team rules. It is anticipated the book includes all the rules for the first season teams in one place

So far I’ve gleaned that there are new skills, the imperial team is basically bretonnians from the NAF rules and the box has the imperial toffs vs a new black orc team (with the goblins and Possibly a troll).
The rules do seem to be changing with agility being replaced by pa (3+ etc), dodging (3+ etc) and some players such as zombies cannot pass at all now.
Also treemen now seem to come as two distinct types, Loren forest and some other forest, oh and humans can now take 1-2 halflings hopefuls.
So looks like a lot of tweaks and changes.

Im sure they have , say , a marine, and then they plan to not make him look better on release , so that they can relaese a slightly better version , next time, and so n. because everytime they release a " new version", its always better IMHO. there always more detail or soemthing pspecial stuck on it , or slighlty bigger deteailed armour ewtc etc that human team is pure magic ! Ive never relaly wanted to play human team, but htose , i will make an exception. Ive got three orc team from diff companies , and i still want, sorry, NEED those new orc models tHE NEW SNOTLING PUMP WAGON !, i love the old one, but the new looks even more precarious and is a must have. There must be some designs that they say , NO , thats too good , save that for the nexrt version do adumbed down version fro release now just the cynical part of me, cos i dont know how they keep improving them As long as my wallet allow s, i will keep buying into the GW hype train and new release, but i may have to trim down the sytems cos at tehmoment , i cant keep up[ with just teh building of teh models lol

You know what the best thing about these new teams is? Someone else at the club will probably buy them so I won't have to but I'll still get to see them play and maybe even play against them. In the meantime I might even get a second player painted. In fact I have a couple of special plans I've managed to avoid mentioning on the forums too much so far.
