If they had some Iron warriors dice I would pay someone to pick me up a set. Like the the claw and plasma annihilator are out, definitely want the play around with the claw as a start to my own warlord.

Guess they have saved it for the FW open day on 17th July? Debating on the Stormbird, I hardly use my Thunderhawk as it is.


Yeah, it'd stand to reason that they're holding that and the updated CAL book for the Open Day.


They wanted to release the Mastodon at the last event, but they've had a lot of trouble with the casting of it I think.

Browsing galleries of expertly painted miniatures is always inspiring.

We’ve just created a new website to let you view the winners from the world’s most prestigious Warhammer painting competition: Golden Demon.
The entries for 2013 are in there now, but they will soon be joined by more from previous years, and of course, we’ll update it after Warhammer Fest so you can have a good old gawp at the winners.

Enjoy!

All Legions will be getting dice at some stage which will be sold on the Forgeworld website.

I hope they release some world eaters dice

“Because we couldn’t be trusted. The Emperor needed a weapon that would never obey its own desires before those of the Imperium. He needed a weapon that would never bite the hand that feeds. The World Eaters were not that weapon. We’ve all drawn blades purely for the sake of shedding blood, and we’ve all felt the exultation of winning a war that never even needed to happen. We are not the tame, reliable pets that the Emperor wanted. The Wolves obey, when we would not. The Wolves can be trusted, when we never could. They have a discipline we lack, because their passions are not aflame with the Butcher’s Nails buzzing in the back of their skulls.
The Wolves will always come to heel when called. In that regard, it is a mystery why they name themselves wolves. They are tame, collared by the Emperor, obeying his every whim. But a wolf doesn’t behave that way. Only a dog does.
That is why we are the Eaters of Worlds, and the War Hounds no longer."

Regarding the Stormbird, shall we start guessing how much it will cost? Or much it will weigh?

The Spartan is the heaviest I have (the Glaive is less resin than the Spartan), and there's got to be 3-5 Spartans' worth of resin in the Stormbird.

So are dice being made for all 18 Legions? How much in a set and how much for the set?
I'd send money for some, seriously!

16 16mm dice for £16. They're planning on doing all Legions but it's not clear yet which other ones will at Fest.

£750 sounds about right, the Thunderhawk is around 4kg and I get very nervous about it being on a flying stand.

Maybe they will make two sets of dice that are black with inquisition seals on the sixes for the "Lost" legions , Or how about a set for blackshields

The Inquisition didn't exist back then though, maybe the Sigil of Malcador would be more appropriate?

While we're at it, I hope they also do Solar Auxilia dice.

The Stormbird in the fluff was supposed to be massive.

This just looks like a chubby Thunderhawk. I like it. It looks slightly more practical as a design than the Thunderhawk.

But it's way too small to be a Stormbird based on how the Stormbird has been described.

Marneus Calgar is referred to as "one of the Imperium's greatest tacticians" and he treats the Codex like it's the War Bible. If the Codex is garbage, then how bad is everyone else?

It's the Sokar Pattern Stormbird, which is smaller, and a precursor to the Thunderhawk.

It's a Sokar(spelling) pattern Stormbird. It's a transition between the original Stormbird and a thunderhawk of 40K. I doubt we will ever see a true stormbird as that used to carry a companys worth of troops and vehicles.

I guess that makes sense. Though seems silly to use the same name for an entirely different ship.

Well it's still a Stormbird, just a later, smaller variant. There's a chance they'll bring out a bigger one in the future I'm sure.
