3rd of April release - Realm of Battle: Imperial Primus Redoubt

Lol- for when you really want someone to GTFO your turf... have a turbolaser battery!

The rules: http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Downloads/Product/PDF/p/Primus_Redoubt.pdf

Sigh. I was really trying not to spend any more money on 40k right now...

Question is, can that Turbo-Laser be mounted on anything else, like say a Reaver's carapace?

Hmm on Angron's page it now says "character series one". Is that new?

It's a new label, but not a particularly interesting one. They've been using the "character series" label for a long time and Angron was the first one they released. So I guess they're just making the numbering explicit now.

Probably. If the gun barrels are the same as the equivalent Warhound weapon then it should be about the right size, and making an adapter for the mounting point should be pretty easy even if it doesn't fit as-is. IIRC people have been using Warhound guns for the Reaver's carapace mount and it's a simple conversion. But I'll let you buy the first titan + gun pair to find out.

Angron seems to be the only one with it. Speculation here, but hopefully that means series two Angron (Deamon Angron) is on the way.

IIRC they said at the weekender that it is a Reaver weapon, it fits both.

They also said these sort of tiles don't continue to happen unless this one sells well. General rule of commerce, I know, but it seems they went out of their way to make it known, suggests to me that someone in the studio has plans but needs to show there's a large enough market before being given the green light to crack on.

Me too, but I'm more hoping for Angron with just Gorefather and Gorechild put together into the giant glave

Well book 5 should be next month so I guess 6 months ish after that? (Pretty sure they're 2 a year).

QFT brother, its a delicious terrain piece. And just begging to be Orkified too

Abaddon and Loken have got the same but numbered 2. May have been something the started with but didn't run with and just never bothered to remove.

They'll probably try and get it out for pre-release at Warhammer fest (if they're doing that this year) then go on general release within a week or two.

Thanks gianlucafiorentini123

Haven't seen this posted on here, but just saw over on Bolter and Chainsword that FW have stopped producing the Lucius warhound.

Well, spoke to fw, as of 2 weeks ago they have officially stopped producing and selling the lucius.
On account of the Mars selling on a ratio of 8:1 lucius.
As they now have more limited storage room (there's been a lot of new things out last 2 years) lines are being struck off if not productive. Sensible I suppose but always sad to see one go.
Don't be surprised to see other less well selling lines streamlined.

Quite sad to hear this as I actually really liked this pattern and if I'd ever gotten a warhound I'd probably have gone for the Lucius.

I've always preferred the MARS over the LUCIUS - interesting to see that most of the rest of the world does too!

Problem for me was; when painted up the lucius looked like one you'd scratch-built with it's flat panels all over the place - the mars pattern looks so much slicker with it's smoothly curving panels.
I felt that if i was going to spend £300+ on a model i want it to look better than a scratch-build one!

My biggest issue with the Lucius-pattern is the head. It looks like it might be a Megas XLR mech with dog head made from a car. The others are a little too dog for my liking as well, but it's not as bad. When I eventually get a Warhound, I'll definitely need to solve that.

Hmm, did anybody else get an email announcing Bulletin #54, titled The Mechanicum Marches Out? Except the link doesn't work.
http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/News/FORGE_WORLD_BULLETIN_54.html

Yup, I got the same nonfunctional link.

While looking at the currently available Imperial Armour books, I noticed the pickings are a bit thin. Has anyone heard rumors on when more might be coming out?

Oh wow, I didn't see them killing off a titan. I'm bummed out. I was going to get a lucius with my tax refund, but I see that it has already been removed from the site. Never mind I guess.

I wish that they had a last chance section in those newsletters they send out.

Newsletter link is working now:



Raven Guard incoming.

Should make the 40k raven guard look pretty nice with that upgrade kit

Raven Guard should get a lot of nice variety, because the existing FW upgrade kit works for HH too, because it is a MkVI kit already

Ork fighta bommer is gone too. that was kinda obvious since GW has it's own kit. I was contemplating about it but couldn't pull the trigger after I bought the Lucius Titan. I was also looking at Eldar Vampire Hinter and Raider. Accidentally, they are now listed as "Out of Stock". I wonder if they are to go next... A word of advice to everyone who is interested in old FW products - buy now, you never know when FW is going to shelf them for good.

P.S. Correction, not gone, it's still there. My bad, I need a new pair of glasses.
