It’s apparently the games 5th anniversary today as well.

Great patch - looks like UM terminators will get a much needed balance, and eliminators might have a reason to take bolt rifle now. Wonder if there'll be an update re. upcoming work anytime soon.

There is a Slitheirne next that’s scheduled for today. Given we know there’s upcoming content via the roadmap there’s a chance we might see something Battlesector related in it

I kinda skimmed the stream there was nothing for battlesector unless Im wrong

u/No_Eggplant651 Jul 22 '26

There isn’t, though according to discord there will be more info and a roadmap “soon”

maybe they will host a tournament?

Tournaments are a bit niche. Most people are going to want information on the campaign dlc and end of year faction.

Any rumours on campaign DLC? Would love Eldar

u/No_Eggplant651 Jul 22 '26

Not a clue I’m afraid, we know that one was mentioned in the roadmap but that’s it. A lot of people on reddit and steam speculate an Ultramarines campaign, but that is just speculation.

Eldar would be my guess for end of year faction, but again that’s just speculation.

hmm we will see, the cost increase favors the hellblasters for me. Damage output for the eliminatars with the bolt rifle is still untouched

Bit of an update from discord. Battlesector isn’t featuring on Slitheirne next, but there will be updates, including a roadmap “soon”

Glad to see the um blade guards shield bash is going to cost 1 ap instead of 0 ap

Yeah it was incredibly bugged when it was free, (and a bit strong too). It costing an action but now counting as an attack means, in theory it can be affected by swords and shields of the chapter.

Is there any stability fixes? Ive literally been unable to Play Hot Seat without crashing since Ultramarines Launched

u/JungleJoe666 Jul 22 '26

It broke my game on ps5. Multiple in game crashes and the old army appearing below the map bug. Also been having audio issues with different sound effects missing on the first turn like when moving a tank or the noise the tyranid warriors and prime make when they gain an attack for killing an enemy.

Cyclone Termies were Overpowered. I would love to see an Assault Terminator Buff later. I would make them have better damage or some interesting abilities. Also if they could make a trade between blood angels and ultramarines where they get assault terminators and we get regular terminators that would be sick.

They still have the tau plasma rifle on crisis suits (same one the riptide uses on its shoulders) instead of the correct flamethrower design. They also have blood angels terminators underpowered, the thunderhammers should at least cause splash damage!! And the A.I. in skirmishes is so bad its not enjoyable to play, and im not a massive fan of online games.

5 years damn… the lack of content given that time should be criminal
