Not a single Space Marine? I cannot take this anymore ...

WANT!

Wallet blown. Mind blown.

welp....

Gonna need some them there Auxilia.

Hot dang, that transport looks great. Not sold on the artillery tanks though, they be ugly.

What chassis is the transport on? It looks like it's on the malcador chassis, which is a super-heavy vehicle, isn't it?

Going to be an expensive weekend, I've already got a sizeable reservation and I want a good chunk of the latest new stuff. I'm still expecting HH4 to be available on the day, going to have some hard choices to make.

Yes, but I suspect they'll downgrade it to below superheavy levels.

Yes it's based on the Malcador which are normally Lords of War (but only 6 hull points).

If you're getting Auxilia in groups of 20 you need a big transport :-)

Well gak the FW vorax are (just) within my budget.

My first thought was, "What, 5 models for 68 pounds!". Then I saw it was 20...

That transport looks even better painted, was hard to get a good luck at the Open Day because of the press of bodies.

I just find all things human/ IG so unimaginative.

Huff.

I need more of this in my life.

From the perspective of xenos, humans are xenos. Does that help?

Dang those models all look amazing! Remember when GW proper sold 20-man sets of IG? Good times...

Obviously with FW prices in mind those Solar Auxlia seem quite reasonably priced, they look to be packing a tonne of detail and you get 20 for the price of 10 marines with bolters.

at 109+ a squad, the solar auxilia are out of my range, DKoK are 80 a squad and out of my range.

44is a bit much but doable. Sadly the soldiers are not happening for me.

Crud, another Knight that I'm going to have to buy. Pokemon knights are killing my nerd budget.

Styris is another Mechanicum-looking one to go with Magaera, huh. Makes me wonder if they have something to do with that in terms of fluff. And if there will be a Questoris Knight list in HH4

Just wondering if the Vorax are £48 each or for the group of 3. Anyone know how big they are?

Wow, tank crewed Multilasers. Sure beats heavy stubbers.

Ugly you say? Then they'll fit right in with the majority of the Imperium's stable of vehicles.

I like the look of that artillery.

Looking at the weapons (2 of one type, 1 of one type) on them they come as a set of three as when was the last time FW gave you an options for weapons on a walker? They look a size smaller than a dreadnought.

Hopefully in 2 days the rules for that last knight drops and I can complete my IK army. For now...

They're probably 48 quid for three since they're smaller than Castellax, and you field them in groups of 3+ but I could be wrong.

Goddamn those Solar Auxilia are gorgeous

I would assume it's for all three, going by how the Lasrifle Section specifies "twenty individual models" with the price tag. I doubt that they would charge nearly £50 for those (which is how much a Contemptor + pair of arms is).

Actually they're probably 48 quid each, they're bigger than Castellax now that I've looked at the FWO photos again.

I noticed that the lasrifles on the solar auxilia have drum magazines. And i might be wrong but the officers laspistol reminds me of a flintlock pistol

Las battery bolts?

Honestly i think the helmets are ugly but everything else is cool if a bit nautical for my taste

Just curious, are the Vorax Ad Mech or the new Solar Aux? Also, are there rules for them right now or do we have to wait on HH4?

Vorax are Adeptus Mechanicum, and have rules in Book 3.
