Well forgeworld let me down big time this year. The flyer looks like it is from transformers 1888 and the mechanus models are as sifi 1860 as ever, just need a robot with pipe cleaner arms screaming danger and it be perfect. Guess I will just buy another reaver titan.

I didn't even know they had Transformers in the 19th century. Were they steamships in disguise?

I don't think they are that big either, that's what put me off.




Sort of weird to display them the same size.

Anyone there ask about IA12?

Also from Garro:

Spoiler:

Unless I'm very much mistaken, those are updated XV9s. Me likey.

That's the two Riptide variants. The lovely and super powerful Y'vahrah on the left and the R'varnah on the right.

No it's not. It's the XV9 on the right.

Yeah, the sized are super off. The Y'vahrah uses regular riptide plastic legs, and this is a FW comparison to a riptie.

They aren't. Obviously they're just two pieces of artwork side by side, like those color plates from GW codices, and aren't being displayed in the correct scale. The XV9 is either scaled up or the other is scaled down.

Yeah exactly. The colour plates like this are always separate in the books so they're all the same scale as there's nothing else with them to show size normally, and they're just the same size as each other here to fit on the slide.

And again.

I'm not very tall, so this is the view I got.

Images inverted Bro :(

Click on it and it will open in a new window the right side up..

Cool! Taunar missile upgrade still looks great.

I prefer to think of Buttery lurching around, out of his tree on vodka red bulls!

They gave out a FW catalogue at the event. The prices for new stuff are:

Iron Circle Domitar Ferrum Battle Automata: £52
Tylis Rubio £45
Mechanicum Ursurax £30 (for three)

Titan bits may not be new

Lucius pattern head: £60
Apocalypse Missile Launchers £100
Arioch Power claw: £95
Plasma Annihilator: £85

Holy crap, only £80 for the new Barracuda?! The old version was only about £75, so only marginal increase price for all that extra goodness; I'll take 3 please!

Not entirely off base.
Let's just say if there's any photos of Warhammer fest's cosplay commissars around the net, you'll not struggle to work out which is me.

I'm half Australian.

Or you know, click the images as discussed about four posts ago.

Is that a TARDIS I can see reflected in the glass?

That's my phone case. It gets around. It's on several of Games Workshop's social media posts and photos because I tend to leave it laying around Warhammer World during tournaments.

After I took these photos, a nice guy walked up and said he was a games developer who was looking to work on a game of a more epic scale. Because we'd been cooing at the big guns, he asked if we knew about the larger models and if we gamed. Had a nice conversation with four of us giving feedback on that. He asked many other people I'm certain.
We said that one of the most important parts as gamers, regardless of platform was the ability to build an army, not be given a set bunch of things to use.

I wonder what will come of that.

Iron Circle Domitar Ferrum Battle Automata: £52?

One Iron Circle bot costs £52?

How many are in Perturabo's full guard?

4-6 IIRC. But you can take just one as a 'bodyguard' for an Iron Warriors character.

No idea fluff wise but the "Shield Of The Iron Tyrant" rule calls for a unit of at least four models instead of a command squad.

That is one expensive choice, in terms of cash and points. Some £208 and some 820 pts, throw in Perturabo and you have a 1200 point 5 man unit.

No idea why, but part of me wants to say 7. The Iron Circle model is huge btw - there's a pic floating around somewhere of one next to a space marine, and it's about twice the height, if not a little more.

That is big, but at near $80 each, well, that just about scuttled my plan for an Iron Warriors force focused around the Primarch, his Circle and...some other stuff.

I feel your pain. :( Maybe it'd be a project to lovingly work on/collect over the course of a few years? I'm waiting for that overly wealthy someone to post pics of a beautifully painted Perturabo surrounded by a bunch of Iron Circle, myself...

I believe you only need 4 in order to get the special bonuses his personal Iron Circle retinue gets. You can probably still have him attached to a smaller unit like a normal IW IC.

It's a high price but perfectly consistent given its size. It's practically Contemptor sized and it's a legion specific units; if there weren't a general premium on that size of model already they'd have likely charged more.

Anyone want to take some guesses on the Heavy Railgun Array and Meteor missile stats of the new weapons?

I think its obvious the new HRA will be a single target D weapon but anything else? Seems like a waste to have only a single shot so might be a few.

As for the missiles I can't even fathom. The default pulse ordinance array is already wide area attack with massive blasts. And they don't look like they have volume of fire like other models that pack missiles.
