This is about Apocalypse, not motivational posters involving, nazi's and kittens. Well, at least the person who did the poster wrote Blitzkrieg right for a change.
An Apocalypse sized Blitz operation would be neat though.

Yes there will be fighters. I can't wait to have 2 or 3 Barracudas or Tiger Sharks flying around blowing !@#$ up. They will definately add an interesting dinamic to the game, though from what I have heard about them they seem a little overpowered.
Oh and on teh prices of the larger boxes I saw them somewhere and the are like 100-150 dollars less than they would be if you bought each by itself.

Time to stock up on the Hydra and Manticore batteries, as AA will be required.

I find it kind of odd that ten tanks is worth less than 1500 points, though that's just meeting basic requirements.
But hell, I'ma go nuts with that freaking kit just because I can.
A realistic looking Blitzkrieg with my Nazis Death Korps and a dozen and a half tanks!

I have been thinking that I may field several Monat style Crisis suits with TL Fusion blasters and target locks to take care of pesky heavy units. Certainly would be cool to have like 5 or 6 Battlesuits rushing around doing hit and runs.

If things look well a tank squadron boxed set might be in the budget for me. Especially if the datasheet for a tank company allows for different tanks in the company (for example, command tank = Vanquisher).

Comes out in October and is going to cost $125. If you now your prices that is a steal. Each suit is $20 a piece and $20 for stealth. So 9x20 comes out to 180 plus twenty for the stealth so 200. Your getting them for 75 dollars cheaper. that is awesome.

That's the way I believe it's been implied, but I suppose you can't really know untill the codex comes out. The Emperor's Fist Tank Company I believe was supposed to come with two Demolisher conversions, and the supplies to make a command tank. Similarily, the Space Marines can have all three Land Raider variants in a single squadron.

From the GW site, the contents of the Apocalypse book: • 12-page Introduction • Fighting Apocalyptic Battles • The Battle of Cold Steel Ridge • Battle for the Kan Factory • Armies and Battlefields • Organising a Battle • Exterminatus • Apocalyptic Forces • Datasheets • Strategic Assets Xenos Mortium That's the way I believe it's been implied, but I suppose you can't really know untill the codex comes out. The Emperor's Fist Tank Company I believe was supposed to come with two Demolisher conversions, and the supplies to make a command tank. Similarily, the Space Marines can have all three Land Raider variants in a single squadron. That is something I am hoping for, as I don't like the idea of fielding just ten Russ tanks when I can field all my Russ variants and not just vanilla ones. Besides, if I can really field different patterns in a company, I can easily get a boxed squadron set and call it complete: - Vanquisher - Demolishers (2) - Exterminator - Leman Russ (3)

I never really found the prospect of Land Raiders that appealing...
Imagine the swarms of Land Speeders you could field in Apocalypse, though. pirate
