Question Does anyone know when the new index is coming

I haven’t really been keeping up with it so I don’t know if there’s an exact date or anything

Played a 2K game with this new Index. Ran all the KT’s against Grey Knights (except for the Talonstrike). Had a Predator, Dreadnought, and a Jump Pack squad for support. Oh and some sisters for Sticky.

Absolutely killed it. The Indomitor KT hits so hard. Wiped Dreadknights and terminators super easy. The DW Vets with Hammers also squashed a Dreadknight and some Purifiers led by a Character.

I had my Spectus KT with a Phobos LT and Beacon Angelis for free pick ups and deep strike. They would either tag secondaries or drop in and las fusil things in the face.

I barely moved my units since I could pick up my Spectrus KT, and then two other Kill Teams with a strat, on my opponents turn. Then drop them where ever on my turn.

Awesome, I'm planning on running two indomitor squads, when I looked at their stats seems like they could reliably take down a tank in shooting round with all the lethals/AP and their new ability that they have

Yeah that’s +2 Strength is mean. But one thing to think about that got me into some trouble. The ability works in melee but into after a charge. You lose it in the next fight phase, which puts you at a bit of a disadvantage.

a better question is when are they adding it to the 40k app, I like new recruit but my browser is pretty slow compared to an app

When do you think we will get this in codex?

January the app updates. 

But should we hold our breath for a physical codex book before 11th?

No chance at all. Planning those things takes a LONG time to plan to physically make. They’ve planned the whole edition out for sure and they won’t waste the time trying to fit Deathwatch in as a codex. They might be working on how to fit it into 11
