This week I stepped into the Forge World Studio and saw something that answers a question that’s we’ve been asked time and time again – When will there be upgrades for all eighteen Legions?

It’s been a long road but we’re almost there, because the answer is – Very soon!

That’s right, upgrades for the Sons of Russ, the VIth Legion, the Space Wolves aren’t far away. Keep a look out for a Forge World newsletter announcing their release soon.

If that’s not enough for all of you Fenrisians, I hear some old favourites will be coming back to the Forge World web store too. The Space Wolf Terminator Upgrade set has been missing in action for quite some time, but it’ll be making a reappearance just as soon as we can make enough to satisfy all of you aspiring Wolf Lords.

Those pseudo-Celtic knot designs on the carapace there?
Amazing.
But those are "just" MkIV torsos, what are they gonna do with the MkIII stuff?

Doubt it, as all the other custom sets they have produced recently are for the Calth set - Even Iron Warriors are MKIV.

Excellent, more parts for the Storm Wardens / Lone Wolves that I'm building, mwahahahahaha

IW are not Mk4; they're entirely 2/3 save for one shoulder pad set in 4.
They were also done way before BAC.

Ah you are right - They just looked like MKIV when I looked at them, but the description says otherwise.

Still, the majority of the new sets are in MKIV to match the Calth set, so I doubt we will see new MKIII sets until new marines comes out in plastic format.

Makes me hopeful for the next Horus Heresy board game having MkIII in plastic. I love MkIII.

MKIII is best MK!

Those Space Wolf terminator heads look pretty sharp. Terminator Torsos are OK.

The PA chest pieces look great! I like those runes.

The White Scars torsos and heads that I got were not Mk4, but I cheerfully glued the sodding things onto my B@C set anyway. I very much doubt that my regular opponents will be able to notice the difference!

I'd rather have a few sprues of mark 5. The books seem to be getting to the point where that's going to be coming into service. There's plenty of room there to mix things up, too.

I like the knot work. Hopefully they do more shoulder pads, something that's not just the same old blackmane icon that we've had since forever.

I've been waiting to see what FW do with SW, definitely looking forward to what else they come out with for the Pups. I'm hoping for something grittier and less Wolfy Wolf McWolferson.

Nah those are MkIII torsos:

The terminators are actually an old kit being re-released - I remember them from a few years ago.

God dayum those heads look nice!

The crotchguard is a bit shorter than on regular MKIII, but I'd say those shoulderpard are clearly MKIII.

I like the look of exposed cables on the torsos

Good. Mk II/III is the preferred space wolf mark; the classic (metal) Long Fangs were all still wearing it right into 40k….

Looking forward to the helmets for the PA Space Wolves.

well, it's much colder on Fenris, remember, so they don't need the crotch guard to be so low

Yeah I have to say that they definitely look good on more than one aspect. Though I am curious am I the only one who noticed that one of the terminators modeled was given a storm shield? Would be kinda awesome if we got access to them like the salamanders do.

The terminator upgrades were pictured glued to 40k plastics though. Unless we see something else about it, it's likely just a convenient something else to go along wit the SW HH releases. Of course, they could probably go onto the B@C cataphractii legs no problem so that's up in the air I guess

The torso's with the cataphractii legs and arms maby? Not sure how that would look TBH. The proportions between the two armours might be to "off" from each other.

Eaither way you can use indomitus Terminator Armour in 30k, it just dosen't get any of the bonuses that cataphractii and tartaros armour gets. Their was a point to takeing indomitus at one point since it could overwatch unlike Cataphractii. But with the new rules for Tartaros, Tartaros is a direct upgrade since it can do that and sweeping advance.
=/

The terminator kit is an old SW Terminator Upgrade kit that has been around forever. It has nothing to do with the HH stuff.

This is the whole kit.

True.

There might be no wolves on Fenris, but there are shrinkage.

I'm glad someone got it

In case I missed it or whatever, can anyone remember from any events recently whether FW mentioned updating IA12?

Did FW gave any approx date for the release of the alternative heads and carapace weapons for the Warlord Titan we saw in the last weekender ?

Surprised this hasn't been posted and whined about yet:

https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-NL/Leviathan-Dreadnought-with-Cyclonic-Melta-Lance-and-Siege-Claw



Rules: https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/resources/PDF/Datasheets/LeviathanSiegeDreadnoughtRules.pdf

And all those shiny new heavy weapons, here's a few:








And here's all of them: https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-NL/New

re the Leviathan - only 40K rules even though it's filed in the HH section.
Need to get the other version so bad!

huh, you got to bend the feed cables yourself on these ones. Best way to do it, but probley a turn off for alot of people. FW should start doing thows parts the way Zing dose his flexible resin.

It's not a big deal to me, but I know I'm not going to hear the end of it from the local 30k group.

I bought the other auto cannons with the pre-bent cables that attach the gun to the backpack. Those are no walk in the park...

The previous designs, IIRC, only had a single arm pose, so they could cast the ammo feeds in the right shape (and even then, they weren't a perfect fit). These ones are designed to go on the Betrayal At Calth plastics with at least three different arm positions. If they put in fifteen ammo feeds with each pack of weapons, people would be complaining that they were overpricing the kits by adding extraneous material ...

Perhaps it's more hassle across the pond where everyone might not have a kettle?
