Genuine Rumours ????



I've been reading several rumour on the new GK 'dex over the last couple of weeks but to me there has been something not quite right with any of them, either something out of place or obviously wrong.


Stumbled across some new rumours this morning that I feel might be accurate(ish)

------------------

Lord Draigo: WS 7 BS 6 S 5 T 5 W 4 I 5 A 5 Ld 10 Sv 2+      Points - 275
Wargear: Titan Sword (S 10 vs Daemons and Psykers), Storm Shield, Frag and Krak Grenades, Psyk-out grenades
Special Rules: Lord of Titan (Allows you to take Paladins as troops), Psychic Mastery 2, Eternal Warrior
Powers: Hammerhand, Psychic Communion, Cleansing Flame
  • Amazing stat-line, but very costly. Strength 10 against Daemons and psykers isn't anything too exciting for me, but Paladins as troops is awesome if Grand Masters in general don't bring that upgrade. He has a decent power selection, with the Purifier power and Grand Master ones. I'm assuming he is an Independent Character, but he may not be. I really don't think he warrants a super-one man unit with that point cost, but I could be wrong.
Mordrack is looking like this:
Mordrack: WS 6 BS 6 S 4 T 4 W 4 I 5 A 4 Ld 10 Sv 2+        Points - 200
Allows you to take Ghost Terminators
Deeps Strikes first turn like a drop pod.
Has the ability to give out upgrades like a Grand Master
  • Tough to take this one with too much accuracy, as it is just a bunch of other rumors applied to one model. Also, having four wounds with only WS/BS 6 seems a bit odd, but I guess not everyone should have 7 or higher.----- 
------------------------

Not sure where these rumours originated but I can't claim credit to them.

To me Lord Draigo sounds/ looks like a grand master SC and has the stat line and tools to kick ass. Seams like he's the guy that lets you take Paladins as troops. On the fluff side I'm thinking the top GM?

Mordrack looks to be to to a Grand master what Pedro Kantor is to a chapter master, gives special access to troops but basically similar.

Just some questions I have though are - What are psyk-out grenades? Is Mordracks stat line the same as a 'basic' grand master? What are 'ghost terminators'?
