Chaos Supplements Inbound

I hope these are true.. faeit 212 posted that all of the major chaos legions would be getting full supplement support and these supplements would actually have more rules content to them.  The rumor also stated that all of these are being worked on at the same time and they should be released either at the same time or right after the other.  I don't know about you guys but this was the news I have been waiting to hear especially after seeing all of the customization that vanilla marines have now with there new book.  The rumor also stated that these books will bring the flavor back to the legions like never before.  This I certainly will take with a lot of salt as I have been let down so far by book chaos space marine books.  Don't get me wrong, the 2 books are definitely fun to play and offer some options but not to the extent that I would like too see them.   I really hope these new supplements are the real deal and bring with it the options that all csm players have been waiting for.  Some quick points on what I would like to see per my chaos armies..

Nightlords - bikes and raptors as troops at least.  New special characters.  Army wide stealth and ways to miss with leadership - terror tactics.  A way to make standard csms stubborn.

Thousand sons - better aspiring sorcerers, we are currently paying the same price for these guys as your book standard hq sorcerer.  Able to pick other spell lores other than tzeentch like chaos daemons.  Ways to increase the strength of thousand sons bolt guns.  Better psychic defense.  Actual rubric termies.

Iron Warriors/Dark mech - changes to force org.  Actual warsmiths.  Army wide Tank hunters. New dark mechanicus units.   Way to make standard csms stubborn.  New special characters

On my painting station currently im working on some screamers, and of course the required Riptide.  Let me know what you think.

Chaos Space Marine Rumors for 6th ed.

For those who cant seem to get on Tasty Tastes' website (Blood of Kittens)due to it crashing and all, I was able to get ahold of the Chaos Space Marine rumors that he posted. I listed these below -Troop Choices will be Chaos Space Marines and Cultists -All Cult Marines are Elites No new Special Characters -Special Characters will unlock Cult Marines as troops (Kharn for Berserkers and so on) -Typhus makes Cultists into Zombies -Chaos Dreadnaught is removed and replaced with a new unit (like how pariahs were replaced with Lychguard) -CSM now get a Flyer a Mechanical Chaos Dragon (model is done will be part of initial release) -Lesser and Greater Demons are gone -Spawn replaced by “Fell Beast” I feel like I am missing something… Oh yeah… Almost Forgot... Rules for Traitor Guard are in! Now for some of my thoughts, to be completely honest with you with out him posting any of the wargear or other options which he says he will do at a later time, this codex seems more like he put it as a clean up of the old book. I dont think they will replace the Chaos Dreadnaught, I mean that would be mean the end of Forgeworlds awesome Dreads and completely goes against the rumors for the starter box which claims that a chaos dread will be in the box. Flying Mechanical Dragon, ah no, that sounds pretty wierd, I guess if Grey Knights got the Dreadknight Chaos needs a mechanical beast for him to slay... lol. Deamons gone, this one I hope isnt true as I was hoping that Daemons out of the Daemon codex would be in the book so this rumor I hope is false. In terms of the cult troops being elite, this is definitely a throw back to the 3.5 codex where special characters or marked lords opened the cult marines into troops, this one definitely sounds plausible. Traitor guard rules are pure win in my book and one of the rumors I hope to be true. Tasty Taste, thanks again for the rumors!!
