Thank you kindly. Guess I'll need to decide on what I need to reserve.

Eight quid for a ticket, not bad. Though no mention of being able to reserve stuff. I also like that they're having their annual raffle here, good show.

Sadly, given the location of the event, I won't be going myself. I had hoped that it would be in the same convention centre as a few years ago, but alas, this new location takes two hours to get to and isn't cheap to reach with public transportation.

Guess I'll just order IA4,5 when it comes on-line from their site.

I have a little hobby-thread going in the P&M section. Some say it's the best blog on Dakka, some don't agree, most belive it would be better if I finished at least one project some time this century and not just kept starting new ones.
Check it out, you just might like it.

Anyone reckon this will see some more zone mortalis releases at long last?

I really hope so, particularly the accessories which are currently rather lacking in variety.

Not likely. IA3 was exactly the same as the previous edition, they might have cleaned up some typos and updated minor fluff bits to 6th edition, but nothing more. I doubt IA4 will be any different.

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices.

I wonder if there are any new Zone Mortalis rules in the book? Seems like it would a good fit for the setting.

It will be interesting to see how the Zone Mortalis tiles are going to replace the old outpost rules. It doesn't quite feel the same.

Well the Space Sharks are supposed to be of Raven Guard stock, so I think the new Raven Guard 'dread ties them in together nicely. I like how FW does try to link in their various fluff across 10,000 years. The 'dread looks cool to me.

Space Sharks are descended from Raven Guard?!?

I don't think that's 'confirmed' at all - just speculation on your part?

I have heard it in quite a few places, trying to remember if it was anywhere official...

Imperial Armor 10 mentions it. I hope a tiny snip from the book is okay?

I'm not sure that's the 'conclusive proof' we're looking for!

Most sources put the Founding Legion of the Space Sharks as 'unknown' - it appears as if they might just share some mutations with the RG?

Yup, it is in the Badab War books- their appearance and the gene markers show they are Raven Guard descendants, and now we have the tribal marking giving another tie-in. The way the Sharks fight is also quite similar to Raven Guard when they suffer from that "super mad killing spree" affliction that a lot of them got at Isstvan, but much more easily switched on. Possibly because of the gene seed degradation.

I think there was something about the Raven Guard using Nomad-predation style fleets in Book 3 somewhere too, which is the organisation of the Space sharks fleet.

Well, they say "unknown...but probably RG"



Which is probably as much of an admission as we are ever going to get with any of these "mystery" chapters .

The decoration on that Dreadnought that makes it look "Space Shark-esque" is also on every individual Raven Guard marine and vehicle pictured in the Forgeworld Horus Heresy book, it's even on the pre-Corax Unification War Legionnaire . It's not as prominent as it is on Carcaradon marines, due to the differing color schemes, but it's there.

It's also worth noting that in the Forgeworld Horus Heresy book that in the Raven Guard section, it mentions Corax sending a section of his Legion out as a "nomad predation fleet" to serve on the fringes of Imperial space. That's exactly how the Carcharadons are described.

There are too many coincidences for the Carcharadons not to be a Raven Guard successor.

That's just a misdirection to hide the fact they're one of the lost legions.

There's also a Raven Guard sent out like that that has a sacred relic (I think it's a helmet?) which the carcharodons have in the present day or... something like that.

Hey I'm sure this has already been discussed somewhere (if so, can I have a link?) but I recently tried to get on forgeworld and buy some Krieg. Anyone know what happened to them all? I can only find the heavy weapons and some other stuff, but where is the command squad, the infantry variety, all of the extra stuff they used to have? I really wanted to pick up the advancing Kriegsman, the firing ones, and the command squad but now I can only find them on amazon.

What gives!?

Moulds will have worn out. Either they'll put them back up for sale once new moulds are made, or the master models are shot and they're gone for good, but the former is probably more likely.
