Mods, is it a forum reportable thing to persistently spam threads with pointless, boring negativity?

I guess that's what Ignore is for.

Yes (maybe?), it is, but please just report posts that you feel are against the rules of the site via the "Mod Alert" system rather than 'in thread' - thanks!

Ignore. Greatest feature invented in forums ever.

RULE#1 and RULE#2 guys - seriously.

This just got sent to me, thought you gentlemen might enjoy it. Appears to be fake ignore.

Fake. Already discussed a page or so back. It's not an official FW product.

Carab seems reasonable though it's weird he forgot how to give himself rerolls to hit. Meh. The death hold is pretty frickin awesome though, image wise.

He's not Chapter Master anymore, that's why he doesn't give rerolls.

Weird how removal of title suddenly makes him forget his skills though.

Has to be the removal of title. Can't possibly be grievous bodily damage and the radical change in his existance and perceptions. Got to be the title.

Well he's still got that nice FNP bubble so it works out.

I wonder if they'll preview any of the AdMech/Tau stuff in the book or if it'll just be entirely Red Scorpions, until launch, lol.

Doubt we'll see much, if any, AdMech stuff as they'll be reusing a lot of the stuff from the Horus Heresy range

As much as I like those RS and want to support a regular marine release, £60 for 2 power armour models (even ones that look that good) is too much. £40/£45 minus the entirely superfluous display base and we can talk. Will write to FW to let them know that this display base nonsense is costing them sales, not the nature of the models.

I thought the new Chapter Master dude had a Flamer on his pistol early on?

After working on a tiny number of primaris models as my only space marine hobby work in 2017, I can't look at "normal" marine models without instantly noticing the off proportions now even when they're otherwise well done like these. :(

For me the only thing that feels off is the head of the commander.

The banner bearer was actually a captain early on.

Why does that look so much better than the final product?

Weird.

Crab Cake looks like a worse version of a normal Leviathan. I guess he's unique, but I'd take a bog standard Leviathan over him most times.

Aye, the only reason I won't be picking them up is because I just can't look at normal marines anymore! Guttered these aren't Primaris size, beautiful sculpts though!

Culln is absolutely stunning! That shot of the Red Scorpion Reiver next to him though! Love the idea that he will just pick (horrendously clamp) you up and point blank evaporate you with the built in heavy bolter.

I'm guessing Fires will explore the introduction of Primaris to the RS, which is what I'm looking forward to the most (aside from my robots obviously) as I have wondered how the RS would view Primaris, since they see themselves as the purest pure specimen of space marines, what happens when some new boys come along who claim and are said to be even purer than them? Jealous, disregard their claim? Are RS Primaris even purer than regular Primaris? Would some see them as less pure and shun them? I must know!

They got rid of it! I thought the Combi-Hand flamer was cool too.

That Culln model is the gold standard for Dreadnoughts.

Terrible fluff shoehorning in the RS fully embracing them is my bet.

Oh my exactly my thoughts, the heads, hand and feet are too big.
Not to mention the impossible hips.
:( :(

Unfortunately, the Heavy Bolter gets knackered because of it!

On the Primaris, aye I am looking forward to that. I suspect, they'll judge them with the eye towards the return of a Primarch. Something about seeing it as a sign that they should embrace the new fellas

Ha!

I'm of the opposite opinion - I LOVE this Leviathan 'variant'!

And I think the Leviathan is the best of all the 'Dreadnought' types too...

Almost makes me wish I played Red Scorpions...
