What I see when I see that slaanesh chariot

Great minds think the same way

I'm glad I bought some of the metal plaguebearers... Might have to buy a couple of nurglings as well, if those plastic nurglings are stuck together.

Yeah Im pretty happy with the metal daemon models I have.

I do like the plastic screamers though because mine are forever chipping.

yeah,
Love the new plaguebearers. and they come with 10 nurgling extras! winning!
Not sure about the change in swarm height for the nurglings.
I've just stripped 100 metal nurglings, so adding in the extras from the plague bearers should be enough for me...

New slaanesh units and re sculpts for screamers and flamers? I'm not sure why they are adding units and to the codex when they still haven't done models for Ku'Gath or SkarBrand :( :(
and I think most of the heralds are missing too??

The chariots look a bit daft, like people have said, they appear to be old school farmers plows.
the Spikes should be up front especially if that's what is granting the Hammer of wrath attacks? If i was a slaanesh player I'd leave those off they look dumb.

Panic...

Must have new demetees!

A FLGS owned by a friend has received an e-mail with the new models (just name and price, of course). Includes Exalted Slaanesh chariot, so not only GW can sell it (but doesn't say "limited" or something similar). And also says that they can't sell either the minis nor WD until August 4th. So, anyone else has similar info? That is the new date for the next WD?

Yeah. My first thought was that it looks like the "Garden Weasel"

Some more info:
The limited chariot is just a bundle of 2 standard chariots for the price of 2 standard chariots.
Each Nurgling pile (turd?) consists of three parts: Front, middle, back. So you can make 27 pile variants.
The plague bearer sprue contains 10 extra nurglings and some piles of maggots.

Awesome

And here I was thinking it'd be some fancy chariot and considering preordering something for once.

Wait - what?

So the Herald chariot is not 'limited', the only 'limited' thing is the ability to buy 2 chariots for the price of... 2 chariots?

Ah GW marketing.. only in their world.

Loving the Evil aliens links btw.


As to the models themselves, pretty good, think I'd use all of them if I ever went Daemons. My only issue is the awful paintjob on the plaugebearers, way too light.

GW should probably mix these new flamers in with the old ones, they are so very similar I don't think people can really tell the difference and I think this is a good thing.

I have a Slaaneshi daemon army and all this really means is that I will have to re-base my current herald on chariot onto a large oval base. Might have a look at the rules about this new other chariot and make up my mind then.

You wanna buy a Stompa?

Ugh, another white dwarf "codex"?

I hope this one isn't as mind-fethedly stupid as the Sisters WD dex was.

Always a ray of sunshine, M.

Two things.
One, it isn't a WD codex, it is an addition to the existing codex and armybooks.
Two, the Sisters WD dex isn't considered 'mind-fethingly stupid' by everyone.

Thanks for dropping by though!

Yeah, there's some people who simply don't care about it, so they don't, obviously.

GW adding new models and then a ruleset for them on WD is a very, very good thing. Keeps the game fresh and lets WD have some not-crap content.

A full-scale codex in WD done half-assed like Sisters though is another matter.

And a copy of Dreadfleet?

Only limited release thing I have had trouble finding is the Dark Eldar/Space Marine megaforces.

My Local Gaming store has 3 copies of Dreadfleet dusting up a shelf still.

Everyone really loved good ol' Dreadfleet.

Oh wait.....

Well for the first time in a while I'm going to buy catalog for faulty miniaturesWhite Dwarf.

You'll be wanting a Citadel Clean-Up Kit to go with that; it's a bargain at only £8.20 for a toothbrush and a blunt stick!

What were people expecting, a discount, for being loyal kind customers and buying more than other people. Pah.

People can be thankful if doesn't cost more just look at the stupidity GW has given us in the past with things like the Bastion and Chaos Bastion. With the Chaos one costing more than the combined price of a bastion and the chaos bitz sprue you get thrown in with it.

Maybe it still does haven't checked recently.

Good thing it is a WD addon and not a full-scale codex then!

My favored store still has 2 copies of the DE megaforce on the shelf. If you live near or plan on visiting Albany NY sometime, I can hook you up with the address for it.

Whoa, the LE chariot is crazzzzy......

Love the PBs, they're better than any of the metals (and I own ALL of them). I'm getting 3 boxes for allies (2x14 and 2 Heralds).

Nurglings are kind of meh, too spindly and tall.

Chariot is ridiculous, it's all over the place and why the heck does it have an armour value instead of wounds?

Flamers and Screamers, whatever, they're the same as metals. I'm getting 9 Screamers since I've never owned any, but I still see no reason to replace my beaky mushroom flamers.

The most important thing in this release is GW's new-found willingness to update crappy old codexes in WD.

Except that it isn't limited edition, I think.

Right?

I like it a lot and would run Sisters if the models weren't so dang expensive.
