The new relic for codex marines is meh. 15 points for stubborn and PE(CSM) is a little steep over standard AA.

Especially when he does already come with Artificer Armour (well it's in his equipment list, but it says 3+ save... So there's a typo somewhere).

The unit entry is for the HH version, a consul, who does not have the relic armor. Just normal artificer armor (and yes, a typo in his armor line)
The relic armor entry is if you want to run a 40K character with this armor. You would take a Captain, Chaplain, Chapter Master, ect and pay the +35 points to replace their power armor, and then use this model to represent that particular relic if you so desire.

So that marines face intentionally looks like one of the Monty Python Gumbys was inducted into the Ultramarines? Or is it just poor sculpting?

Certainly has that Finecast on a hot day look to him.

Oh I see. Well, just ignore me then.

Why in the new centurion "Web exclusive". Unless you live near Warhammer world all forge world items are Web exclusive!

Exclusive in that it will only be available til Sep 30, and it celebrates the mediocre new website. Least it looks good, even better than the PA Praetor model IMO.

Anyone spotted the "awesome launch offers?" Is it just the Centurion and free shipping for £100?

I miss read the new letter, thought it was spend £100 get centurion. I plan on starting my HH Space Wolves next month and thought a free dude would be great....then saw its £20, no thanks.

Annoying, looks like the 12% charge is still in place. £100 spend for free postage is nice but won't last long.



However, looks like there's some things now back up for sale again that disappeared

Yeah, the centurion is £20. This is a nice model for the price, though:



They should make free shipping 100GBP permanent. That's a way easier price point to hit than 250GBP on an impulse buy.

£100 impulse buy? Jesus.

"Don't care. Got mine." indeed.

Well, most of the vehicles from FW is at least GBP100. Sooooo..... if you buy one because you think it's cool... that's an impulse buy, right?

I am very tempted to bite the bullet and pick up that Acheron I've been wanting for a while now, especially with the free shipping.

Why? Are you thinking that they'll give people "Australian prices"? Since they aren't stocking it locally, I don't see the reason for that.

Ooo, what? I haven't spotted anything yet...

Oh, another "bonus" --

Orders over £250 qualify for Free Express Delivery. Until 30th September 2015 orders over £100 qualify for Free Standard Shipping.

I bought the space marine centurion, a sicaran, and some BA icons just over GBP100. Knowing GW... in a few hours, the centurion will be probably sold out. LOL.

I doubt they could screw us Americans over as bad as they have screwed the Aussies over.

Then again, the ripple effect of this would be that the Aussies would lose their "bargain" minis in the form of FW.

If I wanted to piss my wife off, I would be ordering 100 pounds(my keyboard doesn't even have that key!) of stuff (probably Alexis Polux, two Rapier Quad Cannons, and some Razorback turrets) to get free shipping. But since I don't want to piss my wife off, I will have to wait a bit and probably just get the Rapier Quad Cannons to use as Thunderfire Cannons (alongside two GW Techmarines).

Amazing. They delete everyone's existing accounts, migrate over to the fething awful GW website layout, yet they're still doing the totally unjustifiable 12% flat-rate shipping cost?!

feth 'em, time to go east.

It looks like they also pulled most of their bundles. gak.

Wow, that centurion is really helping cement my opinion that FW has lost its status as a real boutique manufacturer and is now simply pumping out more and more power armour crap like GW proper.

The "House Terryn Upgrade kit" is now shown as no longer available, which is a shame.

Damn, most of the Chaos Dwarf stuff has disappeared. That was the only army that would get me back into Fantasy.

30$+ Marine that looks like a normal heresy marine? Uh.. Pass. I think the only thing I can justify at FW prices are the books nowadays.

The 12% shipping just seems like a 10% tax when you can get free or minimal shipping from almost any store in the world.

The new site is much better to navigate (and obviously similar to the standard GW site), but my main gripe is that even when I click 'Warhammer 40,000', I still have to look at loads of Horus Heresy stuff. I'd really like to filter those out, as I'm fed up staring at models' legs to work out whether they're heresy-era or not.

There is also talk of some upcoming exclusive Forge World store-only miniatures, including the much awaited———DELETED BY THE INQUISITION———

(sauce)
Could be interesting. There's been talk about some exclusive minis since they announced the store, and it's been mentioned a couple of times on the WHW website.

Hopefully that seated and standing Imperial Noble for your Knight.

I love everything about that Centurion apart from his head, just does not look right to me, going to have to swap that out for sure.
The armour is pretty tasty though.
