It's not wierd for their 40K range.
It would be extremely unusual in a GW boardgame.

Warhammer Quest and Talisman had metal miniatures, but only for the character add-ons, not in the core game box.

Bommerz over the Sulfa River had metal planes, but was only a throw-together rather than a real boardgame release.

So far as I'm aware, every other boardgame GW has released has had all plastic miniatures. Metal would be extremely surprising. In particular since the boardgames are supposed to be easier for anyone (rather than modellers specifically) to just pick up and play, so miniatures are generally one piece or snap-fit. Isn't the Broodlord a multi-part model? That would make it a rather odd choice for anything other than a modeller-aimed limited release version of the game.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/247886/833705.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/247886/833705.page GMT bs.

Given that it was a regular-sized sculpt, rather than a 3D render or 3-up, that one was always going to be either metal or a Forgeworld resin piece.

I'm not really [i]that[/i] concerned with what actually comes with it (although plastic corridors would be pretty mac), I just hope the rules are still solid.

Should all be plastic, as it's a hobby board game designed to be more or less playable out of the box.

Realistically the only thing you should have to do is glue the figures to their bases ala the Blood Bowl Box Set.

GW makes great board games, I wish they would release more - though the stuff coming out from FFG using GW's IPs looks good.
