new-planetary-onslaught-haemotrope-reactors

The wait is over for the newest for data sheet for Warhammer 40k. Come see just how good the Haemotrope Reactor’s fortification’s rules really are!

One piece of the new Planetary Onslaught supplement has been revealed, as the Haemotrope Reactor’s rules have been spotted!

Looks like anyone that can shoot plasma in any significant amount will love new piece of terrain, as will the fluffy 1st legion to boot. There is something to be said about being able to turn plasma guns to cannons, and cannons to plasma BATTLE cannons for sure.

Plus it’s the terrain piece to make your other terrain better and can even connect to them on the tabletop.

Curiously this fortification also has a Toughness value just like it’s cousin the Armored Container too. A precursor for rules to yet come I wonder?

 

Another great terrain kit will on store shelves THIS weekend.

So, while no one knows what will be in the new supplement for sure (besides GW), there are plenty of ways to try to guess.

Here is what we DO know:

It’s a Supplement for sure

Astute hobbysist Kanluwen complied this list of all the fortifications out there, and when you add in the newest one it totals 29:

1 Aegis Defense Line

2 Imperial Bastion

3 Imperial Strongpoint(Fortification Network)

4 Honoured Imperium

5 Wall of Martyrs Imperial Defense Line

6 Wall of Martyrs Imperial Defense Emplacement

7 Wall of Martyrs Imperial Bunker

8 Wall of Martyrs Firestorm Redoubt

9 Wall of Martyrs Vengeance Weapon Battery

10 Wall of Martyrs Imperial Defense Network(Fortification Network)

11 Promethium Relay Pipes

12 Void Shield Generator

13 Void Relay Network(Fortification Network)

14 Skyshield Landing Pad

15 Fortress of Redemption

16 Macro-Cannon Aquila Strongpoint

17 Vortex Missile Aquila Strongpoint

18 Munitorum Armoured Container Cache

19 Plasma Obliterator

20 Tidewall Shieldline

21 Tidewall Droneport

22 Tidewall Gunrig

23 Tidewall Gunfort(Fortification Network)

24 Tidewall Defense Network(Fortification Network)
24 of those are the items that are currently directly referenced as Fortifications. I included, in my initial counts as I think they will likely make an appearance, the Basilica Administratum, Manufactorum, Shrine of the Aquila, and the Sanctum Imperialis despite currently being labeled as “Battlefield Terrain” rather than Fortifications.

PROVISIONAL
25 Basilica Administratum

26 Manufactorum

27 Shrine of the Aquila

28 Sanctum Imperialis

With the Haemothrope Reactors, we’re at 29…so most likely I think the Haemothrope Reactors will be rolled into an existing Fortification Network.

29 Datasheets in the new supplement, and here is a solid count of 29 current formations (and formation like kits). Coincidence, maybe not?

Will this replace 6th Edition’s Stronghold Assault? Take a look at the list above and drop what you think in the comments below!
