==Things to Note== '''The Renegades and Heretics section is in desperate need of an FAQ or Revision.''' Warhammer Legends has fixed most of these bugs. # The list was poorly reviewed, with troops being able to replace nonexistent weapons, weapons being take able on models that aren't part of the unit, and models being able to take from the "Pistol" list when there is only a ranged weapon list containing pistols. If you play this army, make sure you don't play it with '''That Guy''', and you have respect for your opponent and follow the RAI. # One particular issue is that the list allows you to take vehicles from Index: Imperium 2, and Imperial Armour:AM, which in a few cases do not exist. It also is unclear if you are allowed to take any vehicle with the keyword, or only those units (given that some units on the list exist, but are under different names, such as the Medusa) :::::*This has been radically altered by Warhammer Legends. # So this is my call-out to Forgeworld: Conduct a thorough revision/review of the LatD list, and check for errors and places where clarity is lacking. Given how cheap the book is, I'm sure consumers would be willing to pay to own a reviewed copy, or if a future more thorough release with more models is in the works. [FAQ is out, cleans up some things (eg CHARACTER keywords, adds Armageddon Medusa) but leaves others unanswered (the weird Medusa entry is still on the list for one, autopistols are still 6" range for Renegades but 12" for everyone else, etc)] :::::*Also done via Warhammer Legends. # Optimistic View: They had a R&H army out a week after release, which was not the case for Eldar corsairs, the other major FW army. Corsairs were always meant to be an allied force for Craftworld/Dark Eldar, so this is not too surprising, however based on how the R&H army was written, and the fact that some of the content they used to posses (Demagogue Devotions, most notably.) is not in the book, and the growing emphasis on Chaos VS Imperium, I would not be surprised if R&H got their own IA book, or a re-release in the next major Chaos IA Supplement. The growing emphasis on chapter tactics on the Warhammer community would also go hand in hand with this, so i would not be surprised to see a complete R&H list in an upcoming IA:Chaos book, including demagogue devotions and other customization options which are intrinsic to the army. ## '''Alternate Hypothesis:''' GW might be cooking up a codex release for the Renegades and Heretics, a la the Lost and the Damned. Totally speculative but this could be a possibility given the new narrative emphasis on Chaos. ## '''Another Hypothesis:''' Seeing as Forgeworld has recently stopped selling conversion kits and has admitted to having no current plans towards updating the Renegades and Heretics list, we may be out of luck. Sorry fellow heretics. ## '''Another Hypothesis:''' GW has announced and revealed their latest boxed set "Blackstone Fortress", this set contains traitor guardsmen and 40k beastmen, as well as new generic chaos space marine miniatures, this may be indicative of RaH being "absorbed" into the regular chaos list or a new version that will be supported by GW rather than FW, so there may still be hope for us Lost and Damned in the 42nd Millenium :::::*Hopeful view - The introduction of Negavolts and Beastmen might be a signal of new and game changing units with *''gasp''* official models. ## '''A Fourth Hypothesis:''' The fact that plastic Krieg are now a thing that exist, could be indicative of other FW lines being moved over to GW, which could mean a later release for our heretical sods.
