Black Templars & Astartes Rumor Drop

By Rob Baer | July 21st, 2013 | Categories: Warhammer 40k Rumors

Well this week has been full of all sorts of leaks and we even got a new surprise codex supplement in the form of Tau: Farsight book!

Word on the street is more Space Marine rumors this week, as kits have been spotted and been leaked already.

Faeit has the report on all the new Templar rumormonger-ing, as well as some tidbits from Sisters of Battle authors as well.

What do you think about these old models from the EPIC line back in the day?  I think they were called the “Knight” or “Paladin” and it was a mini titan that ran interference for its bigger scout titan brothers.

I think it would be fun if Space Marines did indeed get a new “big” model for their rumored upcoming release.- MBG
