When I sign up to a Newsletter, I expect it to contain...well, News.

Not the same ads for the same products and events every day of the week. Theres, at best, just one email a week that actually contains some info or a new release that I haven't yet seen.

I actually like the emails.

In between emotional breakdowns and stresses of School I fail to notice FW's offerings, so the emails actually serve a purpose for me.

They're a bit overzealous with the mailing. It's a little irksome, but it's hardly a reason to never buy anything from Forge World ever again.

Yeah I really dislike that they're basically sending emails to alert us about other emails..

But, it's a minor inconvenience.

They should send out an email to apologise about all the spam emails they have been sending. I'll get my coat.

In other news non-related to email spamming, how long does it take for a package to get to America durning the Holiday seasons? I placed my order on November 28, which is way before the cut off to get my package before Christmas, and it shipped December 1. My package is still not here and I'm beginning to get worried.

2nd class up to 3 weeks, 1st up to a week.

Should have been there by now mate, call fw

That's going to be hard, with them having three day weekends.

Mine take about two weeks during "normal" shipping times, so 17 days during the holiday season doesn't sound too unreasonable. When I've had late/missing packages in the past they've said that after 30 days it's assumed to have been lost. But when one didn't arrive after 30 days they sent a new one out without question, so even if you don't get a FW box under your tree you'll get it eventually.

That's a relief Peregrine, thank you haha. I know FW has really good customer service but I was still concerned, this is an expensive order.

Yea can't remember who but someone had a late order called FW they send a replacement then like a month later the original arrived with a slightly damaged box. They said to keep both.

Seems as though FW have done a price drop:







Both sets repackaged into units of ten for £35. I think FW realised that having weak units, that cost almost a £1 a point don't sell very well and it'd probably be a good idea to make them cheaper...


Also looks like they're clearing out Imperial Armour 8:

It nearly broke me......FW sent a meaningful e-mail AND something went down in price (and not just down, by half!).

In. The. Same. E-mail.

I just can't process this madness.

Well bugger me. FW aren't actually full of pants on head stupid business people. I'll be damned.

Long overdue, I went with Anvil's robots as the FW ones were too expensive. Wonder if they'll give a refund or voucher for anybody that brought them at the old price? I know when I've phoned in the past when a bundle came out for recent separate purchases of mine they wouldn't issue a refund of the difference.

Anyone remember what they were for 5?

I'd hazard a guess at 25 pounds. I was looking at them a week or so a go.

Yeah, they were £25 for 5

Wahey. Look at that. I remembered something for once.

Go me!

Ooh that counts as necrons army just got a little more tempting, they really were silly levels of expensive before, still hardly what one could call cheap but at least they're not entirely change resistant.

Which of the Horus Heresy book has the rules for these tech-thralls?

2 and 3

They just need to reduce the Chaos Reaver to £25 & I'll be a happy little bunny!

It looks like they used to be even cheaper!

You're probably kidding but that's the epic one!

I have 10 of the dudes acting as Storm Troopers for my Mechanicus/IG army. I may now be tempted to go full Storm trooper and start 30k

I'm looking at all the HH marines and I'm a little confused.

What's the difference between the Legion and non-legion squads?
For example. What's the difference between this squad and this squad.

I'll be buggered if I can find the difference.

Different poses and detailing. That's about it

The legion ones have things like the early Imperial lightning bolts and distinctly lack Aquilas, whereas the non-Legion ones have more 40k suited little details, aquilas and such but not lightning bolts or other such things, as well as different posing. Basically just more options.
