The new Militia tank based on the Aurox-Chassis is awesome. It comes stock with twin-linked autocannon turret and heavy flamer sponsons. Depending on whether it is for a Militia or Solar Auxilia army, you can then swop out weapons for more autocannon, volkite, lascannon etc. The tank and Aurox represent that in Rogue Trader, the Imperial Army could take land raiders, predators and rhinos. This reflects the predator. Its cheap in points (60pts) and has armour similar to the Predator (12/11/10) and comes in squadrons. The rules will eventually appear in 40k as well.

It will be interesting to see what kind of vehicle they'll produce to represent a not-Land Raider then.

Which strikes me as a waste of money for anybody that knows anything about the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy fluff.



Nothing is stopping somebody from building fluffy, a pre-Heresy Imperial Army force made up of Rhinos, Predators, and Land Raiders fpr casual games set during the Great Crusade. For armies built for the Heresy era, simply select "Survivors of a Dark Age" as your Provenance of War, and you can take Rhinos and Proteus Pattern Land Raiders as dedicated transports for your Imperial Army force.


But what the hell. If new shinies helps sell models, then no harm done.

Hardly evidence FW is going anywhere.

They have lost almost there entire staff to specialist games even the person who drew the transfer sheets has gone, they lost both experienced sculptors form the character series. The last few character pieces have been conversions of existing models rather than actual new sculpts, admittedly very good conversions on the most part but still.

Specialist Games is part of Forge World, so FW isn’t going anywhere, the focus has just shifted atm.

No new releases yet as of typing, though there is a £100 gift voucher giveaway for people who subscribe to their newsletter: https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-NL/Subscribe-to-Win-Three-100-Gift-Vouchers-Up-For-Grabs-FW

Just had the newsletter through - indeed, nothing new, just reminders about the Dreadnought offer along with the last chance to buys

Amazing month full of exciting new releases, great job, ForgeWorld Could've at least brought Arvus or Angron back in stock...

Kind if disappointing since they had so much to show (and sell) at the convention they just had.

Orlock and Van Saar weapons, Human blood bowl booster, various cheer leaders, that star player, foot knights of Dol
Amroth, that new IA tank, Alpharius, the terminators...

12. If an entry is drawn which belongs to a resident of Canada, they must correctly answer a skill-testing question in order to win a prize, in accordance with Canadian law.

How bizarre.

Try this one on:

The prize draws will take place at 23 Liverpool Street, Ingleburn NSW 2565, Australia at 10am (AEST) on the working day following the close of the competition.

Why's the drawing physically being held in Oz rather than at HQ?

Wait, everyone is seeing the Oz GWHQ in their T&C's? That's weird!

Maybe it's easier to draw in Australia and then give the price to someone in RoW than it is to draw in UK and give the price to an Australian?

As I recall the last few GW competitions have been void in NSW specifically, so everywhere except my specific state in my specific country could get involved.

Maybe to allow us to be involved it has to actually involve NSW in some way.

Couldn't agree more. Let me buy your stuff Forgeworld!

Its usually something simple like 2+6/2. So i guess if anyone who doesnt know the answer is 5 would be sad, but...

I can only assume that FW are too busy casting all the Last Chance stuff that people are panic buying to actually make anything new.

I suspose that is one way to deal with them culling their Mailing list or GDPR.

A new UK online privacy law came into effect today. I assume its related to that. Have been getting lots of UK game company emails asking for confirmation that I want to remain on their mailing lists.

T

It's a Europe wide law (and hits companies trading with Europe too),

basically you'll have to agree to stay on mailing lists and other things where they don't need to have your data, and provide an easy way to unsubscribe if you want to on all communications

plus other more complicated stuff about how they hold and use data (all to the benefit of the individual)

Damn, I had hoped - what with the Necromunda in-game ad for the gang leader pets - they might just have been offered today. :-/

You know, I saw this and double checked to see if Underhive Wars had been released and I had just missed it. BTW: It does not appear released.

Still nothing on the new Necron walker?

Looks like all the MkII and Weapon upgrades have now been marked as Sold Out...

I guess that they AT LEAST listened to all the feedback and now these last chance to buys are more like "last chance to buy, but you can order as much as you like and we will cast them out", because nothing - except for Servo Skulls - went out of stock for nearly 1.5 weeks. And I've read people buying as much as 5 sets of bolters...

Anyways, anyone wanna bet what tomorrow brings? Resin Tartaros might as well just be booted...

A new Knight?

There was mention of a new Porphyian-sized knight coming out. With the new Knight codex pre-orders going up this week, they could coincide.

Absolutely nothing I bought two months ago has even shipped yet.

What did you order and did you email customer service?

Three drop sentinels and a Elysian mortar squad. and yes. They've never replied.

That's a bummer. I wonder if its specific items. I just got the shipping notice for an order I placed 10 days ago.

They did say there would be an extra delay on the Elysian stuff (I think a lot of people were panic buying); still worth chasing up.

1) Check your spam folder. It happened to me once that the dispatch note went to spam folder.
2) Call them. It also happened that my email somehow went to their spam folder.


A new Knight would be awesome. Though I really doubt it since they've only shown renders so far.
