Hi All,

I've been scouring the web for the picture used on the OLD Rogue Trader Imperial Guard Plastic boxed set.

The image is of a battlefield with a large pack of guardsmen holding a giant banner of the emperor in the midground. I'm trying to remember other details. I think you can see a Titan in the far background. There's a guard on the ground reaching up for help to his fellow soldiers.

I checked this site: http://www.solegends.com but they don't have a scan of the box.

If I remember correctly this image was in the original Warhammer 40K rule book or maybe the red covered compendium.

If anyone has a scan of this image, or can point me to it on the web it would be MUCH appreciated.

Thanks
Nick

Admit it, you knew I was sitting here with a scanner and a pile of old RT books didn't you?

DIDN'T YOU!

It's a 2 page spread so the scan it distorted, if I see better source image I'll put it up.

You're sitting there in the middle of Beijing, just scanning old WDs for the internet. Yeah, and why?

You should be tearing up the town, cutting a swathe through the local girls and leaving a trail of broken hearts and devastated EDITED BY THE FAMILY INQUISITION behind you.

When I was a lad, grumble, gripe, etc. etc.

How often have I asked the same question?

Well I did spend the night at a wine tasting so I can't gripe too much.

Mix of wines, Japanese guests, I think I spoke about 5 mintues of English the whole time there, in all a pretty odd evening.

I never took niken and I've not lived there for 9 years but for a wine party it's good enough. Just don't ask me to negociate any trade deals.

well i've become slightly more l33t with a new scan



and I managed to merge to two images.


Actually is there an easy way to do it? I can't seem to paste more than one into paint, so I finally just pasted them both into MS Word took a screen shot.

The punisher is part of the new Leman Russ box.
You get the plasma tank, the punisher and the demolisher (all in plastic) bits all in the one box.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
