r/ImperialAgents_40K

Ok, I'm fairly new to tabletop (I come from KT and videogames) and I'have the basics of lore, but could be a little bit of hope that they designed the navis and arbites kit?

As far as I know, KT isnt so profitable as 40K although maybe are the second/third most played GW TT game. So these kits have been made to stay.

Is possible that they will be adding units until they have something to give a well design codex, maybe on mid/late 11 or 12? They even recently did a new character.

Edit: also what are the odds of a codex update?

Too much hope?

I really like the look of Corvus Blackstar and Arbites Exaction squads in particular.

I'm a bit bummed that I can't find the Ordo Xenos box anywhere! I'm based in the UK so please link me somewhere if it's still in stock and I'm missing it.

Anyway, I saw another cheap way of picking up models is the combat patrol magazine but I can't see that Imperial Agents are included?

If not, what's the best way to get started? Do Exaction squads and covus blackstar actually go together?

Hello All!! I'm finally diving into agents after much contemplation. The models are just too cool for me to ignore. Whenever I start a faction I get a 2k list/direction at the start. Goals change obviously, but this way I have a bit of a plan as I work through the faction. Would appreciate some feedback, I want to go hard on the Arbites as I think they're just cool af.

I know that in the Q & A they said we weren’t getting anything new, and also no “new” detachments. My question is do you guys think that was just them being cheeky with their wording? Like maybe they’re gonna talk about the existing detachments as 1 dp detachments? Is too much copium oozing from this post?

Couple of concepts that could work I think.

Better servitors

Special weapon squads focused on melta or heavy weapons native to the faction.

An exotic flyer

Off table assets

Psychic characters with powers specific to that role (I favor this one) because I think it can be a core part of our identity
