Just popped up on the facebook page.

Those apothecaries look sick.

post for the work blocked !

Of course, they release these right after I do a huge order. *sighs*

Nice! Now where's that avenger?

Wow, wow wow, those apothecaries are stunning

I don't buy Marines other than as parts for my Orks - but gee - those Apothecaries could almost change my mind...

Now these are the kind of guys who say "Death or healing, I care not which you seek"

Nice, but where's my Spartan?

plasma pred and semi robed apot....do i smell DA codex soon?

Might have to step in for those apothcaries - very nice!

This^^ and the WD spine image. Yeah it'll be no surprise to see DA getting a revamp soon.

Is it me or are the puns here getting worse?

I'd given up on my marines... but damn those apothecaries are nice..,. it almost makes me want to start up my Scorpions again. Almost.

As far as I can tell the FW guys don't know, or care, what GW are planing next. They just seem to do what ever they think would look cool.

Don't let them needle you.

I wouldn't read into that at all. The Necron Tomb Stalker came out like a year before people were even talking about Necrons. Forgeworld releases have next to nothing to do with GW proper releases. Hell, they even released near-duplicates with the new Demigryph Riders since GW and Forgeworld don't communicate as much as we'd like.

I see the WH40K paints set as a hint. The fantasy one is High elves after all and the DA in that paints set have modelled shoulder pads. I could be wrong.

Apothecaries pre ordered, that's a first for yours truly.

That Mk IV Apoth is... special.

I need that pred!!! Multiple times

On that note, i thought the fluff wed seen said they could only have HB sponsons? Yet the option for lascannons is still there in the experimental rules. Might be a typo i guess.

Those apoths are stupid cool too.

Youd have thought theyd do separate apoths back when red scorps were there 'flagship' chapter, given that the scorps can take them in every squad.

Oh my...those Apothecaries...

They are really testing my conviction not to buy anything new for a while.

its nice to see space marine models in a different pose. They are awesome. I can't really say anything good about that pred though. Isn't my cup of tea.

Words cannot describe how delighted I feel at the sight of a "Buy Now" button besides those Apothecaries. Think Sally, in that iconic scene from When Harry Met Sally. Oh yeah.

I'll admit to having mixed feelings about the Deimos-pattern predators. While I like the look of them, particulalry the sponson design, I do feel that that the curves so prevalent on the model make it stand out from the boxy Imperial aesthetic, but not in a good way. Curvacious hulls are for Tau and Eldar, not dor Space Marines. Still, that doesn't stop it from being a nice model, and I'd love to see a group shot of an army using only Deimos-pattern vehicles, so that everything would match.

WHAT THE HELL!!!

I just checked the price of that Deimos Pattern Predator...it's cheaper to buy it from FW and ship it here to Australia...then it is to buy a regular plastic Predator in my local GW store!

AU$81.50 (approx) for the FW Pred shipped versus AU$83.00 + postage for the vanilla plastic Predator...

Something wrong with this picture?

Love your work, FW. Keep it up.

Padre^.

*slow clap*

I agree though; the Apothecaries and Predator both look excellent.

Forgeworld Newsletter # 303.


Hi there,
In this week’s newsletter, two kits that were first shown at the Forge World Open Day are available to pre-order: the Deimos Pattern Predator Executioner and the Space Marine Apothecary Set.

Deimos Pattern Predator Executioner



The robust and reliable Predator tank has long been favoured by the Space Marines and has seen service in a wide variety of patterns, some of which have come and gone in answer to wars and threats innumerable and long forgotten. In the conflicts of the 41st Millennium the Destructor and Annihilator patterns are the most widespread by far, although some Chapters such as the Blood Angels manufacture unique variants of their own.

One of the most prized patterns is the Deimos Pattern Predator Executioner, which mounts an Executioner pattern Plasma Destroyer. This ancient and powerful weapon fires a series of sun-hot plasma blasts capable of incinerating flesh and blasting apart even power armour with contemptuous ease. Only the forge world of Ryza is still able to manufacture the advanced photo-plasmic cells needed for the Executioner weapon. This has resulted in many chapters whose Techmarines have sufficient skill and knowledge replacing the Plasma Executioner with a Heavy Conversion Beamer instead.

This turns the Predator Executioner into an extremely powerful siege unit and long-range tank destroyer, but this firepower is gained at the cost of manoeuvrability and increased vulnerability to short-ranged attacks. That such a modification carries a long standing seal of remittance from the Adeptus Mechanicus speaks of cataclysmic battles in a forgotten age, in which such devastating firepower was more common, and more necessary.

Designed by Will Hayes, the Deimos Pattern Predator Executioner is a multi-part resin and plastic kit containing two turret weapon options and two sponson weapon options. Experimental rules for this vehicle can be downloaded from the Forge World website. To pre-order this kit, click here. The Predator Executioner will be despatched from 27th April.

Space Marine Apothecary Set



Among the many ranks and honours of the Adeptus Astartes, it is that of the Apothecary, perhaps, which holds the most respect for the import of his role.
Well versed in the arts of cybernetics, chirurgery and bioengineering required to transform a mortal aspirant into a post-human Angel of Death as well as battlefield aid, the Apothecary must also be a warrior of unquenchable bravery and might.

If a battle-brother falls, it is the Apothecary that will tend his wounds so that he may return unto the conflict. If his wounds are too great, it is the Apothecary that will grant him the Emperor’s Peace and it is the Apothecary that will ensure the Chapter’s due is taken from the battle-brother’s flesh; removing and guarding the sacred progenoid organs that will be implanted into a new aspirant.

Designed by Mark Bedford, the Space Marine Apothecary Set contains two multi-part resin models, allowing you to build Apothecaries in MkII ‘Crusade’ pattern and MkIV ‘Maximus’ pattern power armour. Each is packed with detail, from the heraldry of the Apothecarion to the many stasis-flasks and medicae-systems borne into battle by these peerless warriors. To pre-order this kit, click here. The Space Marine Apothecary set will be despatched from 27th April.

If the turret weapon and those heavy bolters were sold as an upgrade kit I would totally buy them. As it stands the Deimos looks fine apart from the areas where the weapons are supposed to be. The turret isn't to my taste and the sponson area looks under-developed and flimsy. As i posted earlier though, those apothecaries... I'm going to break my no new things rule.

To bad the pred is overcosted, both points and money wise since it looks really good.

Also the apots look awesome but again, worthless on the tabletop thanks to their rules.

I love the pred body but as a guard player I cant help but feel like its a rip off. Not sure how I feel about the apothecary.
