Warhammer Fischmenschen und ein neues Produkt für Herr der Ringe das keiner braucht.

Yeah, and not just 40k. Who can remember a horse named "Pferd" in WFB?

**Anung Un Rama**

Pferd? Seriously? I thought only Columbo is allowed to do stuff like that.
Has anyone ever read the Blood Bowl novels? The female main character's name is German for "Spider Beauty".

**Kid_Kyoto**

What does Pferd mean?

**Anung Un Rama**

Horse.

Haha...

Das ist mindestens sicher.

**Flachzange**

lol
I still cant get over the fact that they actually named the novel Grey Knights Graue Ritter in Germany. I mean c'mon, are Space Marines suddenly Weltraum Mariner?

Sheesh

C'Mon! Really? This post is still alive and not stopped? Good god, I posted a legit post under rumours about the new plastic stormtroopers coming out aug/sep with confirmed photos and dropped names of GW artists and staff that gave it to me, and that post was stopped within moments by admin as "unverifiable rumour" or some c%$p....But this? This vague claim "something is coming from GW" is left to wander off in untold chicken hen rambels? Geesh!

Revile v. Definition: To subject to verbal abuse.

Reveal v. Definition: To make something (hidden or secret) publicly or generally known.

Sorry, that gave me a severe case of the irrits.

On topic: Probably new unit boxes or some overpriced plastic kit of a slightly more overpriced forgeworld resin kit.

**JohnHwangDD**

Well, you see, in the WFB Empire, even nobles and heroes are strikingly unimaginative. Or that they have, at best, a grade-school understanding of German.

See?

If I were in Germany, the amount of eye-rolling would be painful.

**MeanGreenStompa**

Given the odd reluctance of GW to admit there's an internet... Any amazing new top secret release is probably something we've been talking about for months...

my guess, Space Hulk or Blood Ravens codex

...YOU NEVER POSTED THE PICS. I call BS. As much as I'd like to believe you, you said there were pics. They have not been posted. C'mon man, where are they?

**Disjointed Entity**

On a poster, in a store window, in Germany.

As is my understanding

**Anung Un Rama**

It was not in the window actually, but on the side of the counter.

And to add some more to the discussion about German language in Warhammer:

Imperium is just German for empire.

That one Blood Bowl character's name is German for "the might train". Or, "Siggi der Zug" in German.

I share my first name with the hero of a warhammer novel trilogy

**Alpharius**

Konrad?

And, after reading this thread, I change my vote to "Space Hulk".

Yep. Though I look much better then he does on the novel cover

MOD Frazzled froze topic before I could get pic up.....
I was one of the first to post the 3 up green version with shotty.....
My other post was frozen before I could get the cell phone pic up of the kneeling stormtrooper/kasrkin model.....from a forwarded cell phone pic, enlarged, sharpened......

**Anung Un Rama**

That looks photoshopped...^^

**BrookM**

That storm trooper looks more like a kitbash and conversion, though we've been wrong before.

edit.

Model is conversion:

Yeah, but modern English is just German mixed with French and then further influenced by every other language under the sun.

Pfft. Foreigners. Everyone here in the USA, greatest nation on god's green earth, knows that english was the 1st language ever written and that those other, inferior, languages are simply poor replicas. Your education system has duped you, sir.

HAHAHAH! Fish, please meet hook, line and sinker.

**Cryonicleech**

Maybe, just maybe, GW is having a huge intervention with ALL their higher-ups and are planning to lower prices.

My hope is that if I put the idea out, it'll (hopefully) happen.

Of course, it could be easily said that I'm doing pot and that's the only reason why I'd think GW would LOWER prices.....

**H.B.M.C.**

I heard they're going to build a huge money pit, Scrooge McDuck style, so that once their price rise starts bringing in the big bucks they can all go swiming in money.
