its not going to happen but the amount of space battles in the horus heresy and their popularity? might warrant BFG:the horus heresy? other than that its daemons/daemonic primarchs and or proper dark mechanicus

There was talk about a large flyer ^ back a ways

For Angron, maybe. It sure looked like Calth/Shadow Crusade is up next, from all the UM and WB artwork. It said that rules guys were involved, so maybe it's some new scenarios or ways to play related to the Shadow Crusade, along the lines of how Book 3 had the Tactical Strike and Blood in the Void rules.

Still too early for them to go full Deamon it don't happen till they start going to or are on the way to Terra

Huge plus requiring a lot of people? I'm going to guess Warlord Titan plus Mechanicum/Dark Mechanicum as their own army list (like Legio Astartes got a minimal fluff codex for their army list)

Someone is working on a Warlord I doubt we will see it till ether a Mechanicus V Dark Mechanicus fight or the Siege of Terra

I hope she stays away from them

Or just the Emperor. You know, hanging out and stuff.

The scale of each is off Magnus is supposed to be larger than Horus in Terminator Armor and Russ and Mortorian are supposed to be taller as well.

**Desubot**

Who is who in that pic?

**Alpharius**

Try and spot tiny Angron - if you can!

**Snrub**

From right to left is it...
Fulgrim - Horus - Dorn - Pertuarbo - Jaghati - Angron - Magnus - Mortarion - Lion

Is that even half right?

**Azreal13**

It's Curze between the Khan and Magnus, and Sanguinius far left I think.

In other news, IA13 seems to have quietly sold out, so here's hoping not too long a wait for the (cheaper) non pantalons fancie edition.

**Bronzefists42**

I hate that photo for a number of reasons.

Magnus looks like the Kool Aid man, you can't even see short Mortarion properly, Horus looks like a Dilbert character, Khan is not proportioned correctly and Angron looks like and angry elf bending down to take a dump (out of frame of course)

FW is doing an infinitely better job with making these guys threatening (especially Angron who up until recently has had pretty bad HH designs.)

I don't see the Lion, don't you mean Sanguiness?

**Ashiraya**

Bigger picture for ease of view.

The Primarchs are, from right to left:

Fulgrim, Horus, Dorn, Lorgar, Jaghatai Khan, Angron, Magnus, Mortarion and Sanguinius.

**Snrub**

Oh yeah. Didn't see the wings.

Why is Sanguinius wearing green armour then?

Pretty sure it's Mortarion, either his armour or the fumes.

Mortarion is not really visible, but he is between Magnus and Sanguinius. The fumes do indeed originate from him.

**Theophony**

FW next big thing.....Warlord Titan. We know it's coming

**reds8n**

**Looky Likey**

Just hurry up and release it! We know it's coming in a slipcase for the first few thousand copies but do we know if it is coming in a big slipcase like book 3 or an individual slipcase?

**Medium of Death**

So Death Guard feature prominently in this book then?

Which events will it describe I wonder?

**alanmckenzie**

Quick question folks.

Has there been any word on the general IA13 release?

I'm making the first pilgramage to Warhammer World in a couple of weeks. Desperate to pick it up. Any chance you think?

Battles of the Cyclops Cluster, Siege of Mezoa, Conquest of Manachea, and Defense of Agathon.

Some of these events are referenced in victory honours on a Black Legion Spartan in Imperial Armour 13, so I'm looking forward to what shenanigans my Sons of Horus get up to in the book!

I'd imagine it would be out by then, the limited edition has sold out so would be surprising if the generic book wasn't up for release very soon

At the HH Weekender people mentioned that it was possibly a 'stand alone' 'one off' book compared to the Isstvan Trilogy. My guess is that it will be in a slip case just for Book IV: Conquest

**STC_LogisEngine**

Yepp, book V is Calth.

**Bronzefists42**

My guess this is a "filler" book (to feed are unending hunger for more awesome lung clogging goodies)

OR

recounts the exact events surrounding Death Guards transformations into plague marines.

I hope it is the latter.

**bubber**

Nooo - can't be DG. Can't afford another doorstop.
Don't know if I can wait for the next wave of mini-books to be published :(

3000th post! Will my Contagious Dreadnought of Nurgle be elevated?

Yes - I'm now an Oozing Plague Marine Terminator.

I was really hoping they would have got it together and offered it on the site this year.

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

Can't just give a code. Gotto put up several hoops to get free shipping...

**Crimson**

This seems stupid. Why don't they want people to use their online store? (And fax, what is this, middle ages?)

Yeah, because it's not like we're giving them something like 500% profit on our purchase of a shadowsword or anything. Oh, wait....

How dare you speak in such tones of such a magnificent piece of archeotech? It may have allready been venerable while the Emperor walked amongst men!

C'mon!

All the Service Studs are doing it!

It does seem a bit dated, but...better than nothing I suppose?

It seems like the peeps over at Forgeworld live in the Dark Age of Technology. I wouldn't mind if you had to place an order with the voucher via carrier pigeon service though

**Shandara**

Try a singing telegram, maybe?

No free shipping until you buy something, 2 month window only. I don't really buy THAT much THAT often.
