One of the worst-made GW trailers I've ever seen, and that's saying something.

Now that is a pretty cool trailer for a miniature based game. Covers a ton of stuff about that new faction, you got the designers talking as well. so much better.

The rumored rules for the scions and taurox thing sound interesting.

I still don't think I'm going to buy them until the new Imperial Guard, or Astra Militarum (I really don't like that name), come out.

I don't know if we've seen all that's coming out yet, but so far I think I'm just going to the IG codex and a hydra, and then read over the codex for a while to see if I need to 'modernize' my army.

Please let rough riders still be in the army! I've been getting myself pumped thinking about cowboy rough riders!

That trailer is about Tempestus Scions, not IG. ;)

Hmmm...

The Tauros looks a little bit better in a neutral green colour and minus all the bling. But it's still one fugly tank!

TBH the tracks need to be extended to run the full length of the body, those side doors need to be removed in favour of a Chimera style hatch at the back and it'll begin to look halfway decent.

Regardless, won't be buying one since it doesn't mesh at all with the theme of my army.

It would look a lot better as a half-track or fully wheeled with three axles. My opinion, anyway...

I won't be buying one either. But I would be surprised if they didn't sell like candy to Ork players.

It looks like the Militarum Tempestus/Stormtroopers will be like Codex: Inquisition - not an outright army, but allies to every Imperial army.

More like the Imperial Knights. Capable of fielding as a full army, but a little bare-bones and probably best to field with another detachment.
