"Plague Drones"...  I don't think these are like Blight Drones, b/c they're rather large to be sold in a package of 3.  Hmmmm......

Where I play: basically I only show up for tourneys or when I'm on my way up to New Hampshire to visit my folks.  I live about 45 mins from both stores, to the south.

You're talking about the Forge World models, right?  How can they NOT be like them?

I like drones.  I would maybe play Chaos demons just to have a very drone heavy army with my Tau.

Well, the Forge World Models (of which I have 3) are "Blight Drones".  If they ever make plastic versions of these, I think they would be sold as 1 per pack, not 3 per pack.

As long as I get my bloodcrushers as cav and they aren't stupid expensive; I am happy.

Very cool, and I have about 13 of them waiting to shrug dust off since 5th ed.

I think that they are gonna be cavalry... but they might be stupid expensive. 

If they ARE cavalry, I hope that there is something that gives Fiends a reason to exist...

Man... beyond that I have such a wishlist for this codex. 

- Something that lets Lord of Change "mess with you" - psychic defense at minimum
- More game-altering abilities out of Greater Daemons, not just combat stats
- Force org unlocking
- Named special Character for the Keeper of Secrets so I can use my Zarykynel model as somethin' special
- Some kind of reward for going mono-god
- Nerfing flamers and screamers (for real.  auto-spam units are never a good thing)
- More funky rules in general

I would love for Daemons to really mess with Psykers. That's long overdue.

I like this though, "Some kind of reward for going mono-god."

It gets my imagination going, like...

Khorne: All units get Rage.
Nurgle: All units get 4+ FNP.
Slaanesh: All units have a 4+ invulnerable in close combat.
Tzeentch: One re-roll per game turn.

I honestly don't understand why they haven't done something similar for CSM like this already.

Oh man Ben... that is some good stuff... it would be SO Tzeentchian to hand out some general purpose re-rolls... that's perfect.
