Looks like Deathwatch may not be getting a new Codex, but a line of miniatures as well. More Deathwatch rumors are rolling in today, checkout the latest!
Today’s BoLS is reporting the following:
New minis accompanying the codex:
- A New Terminator HQ model, with full Deathwatch Iconography throughout his armor and is armed for assault.
- A New Deathwatch accessory sprue – that will work with the existing Space Marine range.
- This is in same vein as the previous Blood Angel, Space Wolves, etc… add-on frames
- Deathwatch iconography pauldrons for both PA and Termys.
- Deathwatch bolters, assault weapons and wargear.
And the Big rumors from over the weekend about the Deathwatch from BoLS:
Industry sources tell BoLS:
WHAT: Codex Deathwatch is coming
WHEN: Look for the new codex in late Summer (August-September 2016 timeframe)
HOW: Look for the codex to NOT be a modified version of the Space Marine codex. It will be a very different animal, representing the unique hard hitting but small forces of the Deathwatch. There will be both existing minis and new unseen kits coming with the release.
Get ready Watch Commanders, the Ordo Xenos is mobilizing soon…

Spikey Bits sprung from Rob staying motivated to hobby on his backlog of projects, while sharing his knowledge with others during the early blogging era.

He’s played every edition of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy (since 5th Edition), but Titans of all sizes will always be his favorite! It’s even rumored that his hobby vault rivals the Solemnance Galleries, containing rulebooks filled with lore from editions long past, ancient packs of black-bordered Magic Cards, and minatures made of pewter and resin.
