Starter Set Leaked Images

Found these Leaked photo's of Chaos Space Marine models on The Emperor's Codex website.  For the better part of four months now there have been teases and rumor mill on the Chaos Codex and new models and the Starter set.

All of which was, at least for me, a roller coaster of excitement and disappointment four months long. Now finally we have solid pics from what looks like the up coming codex of new Chaos models..

 ..and Dark Angels models. 

An though I have a soft spot for Dark Angels (always a sucker for a tortured soul character) my true love has always been Chaos.  An to finally see actual evidence not rumors, not speculation, true to form evidence of new Chaos models has my heart pumping and that feeling you get on a roller coaster as you hear CLACK, CLACK, CLACK as you go up another hill ready for an amazing ride. Must resist urge to get my hopes up...... 

Where's the Lion

I sit here looking over all the models I have collected over the years. Orks, Chaos, Daemons, Tyranids, etc.) but none of them burn to the core as much as the loss of my Dark Angels.

Over 10 years ago when I first entered a local gaming store and saw someone playing a friend on a 4x4 table with plastic toys I got hooked to Dark Angels. The story the fluff and everything in their at the time codex Angels of Death was great, and it just improved over the years. I am always a sucker for characters with internal struggle and the Dark Angels chapter was just dripping with it.

As of late though it's like GW has completely forgot about the 1st Legion. Of all their codex for there flag ship army (aka Space Marines) the Dark Angels one is sorely outdated and in need of a new life given to it. I see list after list claiming Dark Angels and there is hardly ever even a hint of green in them. Even more so all the things Dark Angels had that made them "OP" have been taken/stolen/absorbed and made better in other Space Marine variants.

Only all Biker Army - nope
Only all Terminators Army - nope
Plasma Cannon/Plasma tactical squads - nope.

I could go on but the point is. Besides the fluff what makes Dark Angels "special" anymore. Nothing really. Right now they are better as a story chapter then they are a table chapter.

Please. Please GW. Wake up and bring some glory back to the first sons!
