I just rung GW to order my Stormlord. I got chatting with the guy who confirmed that the Valk, codex and new command box will be released on the 2nd May with advance orders being taken from 21st March! That seems so close now, im very excited

Hell yes!

Thats a long time to wait for an advance order. You'd be paying for it 6 weeks before you get to see it.

Are advance orders normally that far in 'advance'?

I think that they bill on dispatch rather than on order.

I just want to see this new damn Guard Codex!! The 21st is also when the preview copies are supposedly due in stores.

My advance order for "Duke Nukem Forever" is nearly a decade old now but I'm still holding out. It'll be well worth it.

Damn you, now I can't stop laughing.

Looks like someone is still betting on Duke.

GeeDub still ship out their advance order products earlier than release date? Say......a few days or a week early? It's happened before.

Cities of Death and the Vostroyans were sent to my GW store a month in advance.

Sweet looks like its time to make a trip back home form college to go to the local GW at the end of the month. So I can place my preorders.

With inflation that's a smart investment move my friend.

Yea fine i don't know about business, shut up.

Stormlord delivery was 1 week before release.

So "advance" order is pay yet, get your stuff 1 week earlier as usual.

I'd preorder but that week/end is my finals week anyway so it wouldn't matter. I'm already thinking of ways to convert a Valk into a Hammerhead and trade mine off.

Some people have aces up their sleeve. I have the Duke.

I want to see the rulez and modelz before purchasing anything.

Sounds awesome!

Where i live advance ordering the codex i'll probably get it a month late
On another note YESSS!!! VALK, i've got to restrain myself from ordering too many lol

stormlord I really don't care, but valks and duke on the other hand... Duke forever better have titties, no more pasties we've been waiting long enough we should get to see boobs.

Real tits? Ha, good one.

I'd expect a codex leak sometime at the end of this month. Fingers crossed and all that malarkey.

Is Duke Nukem the one where you heal by urinating?

No, I thought that was Redneck Rampage. In Duke you heal by tipping strippers who restore your health through the power of flashing boobs topped with pasties.

hopefully the above listed rumor of the store copy codex date is true. we'll have all our info then.

i don't think you heal with the strippers (although it's been a few years since i played it). i always healed by doing wholesome things like busting up toilets and drinking the water!

I've got Balls of Steel!!

Then you shouldn't go anywhere near an MRI machine.

Or metal detectors at American airfields.
