Read this over at beasts of war.

Apparently they are going to "show" the following:

Quote from website:


That’s right guys… Tonight’s show is all about the new… wait for it… Space Marine Stormtalon… the Necron Doom & Night Scythes… plus the new Ork Biltza-Bommer, Dakkajet and Burna-Bommer! and we expect these bad boys to hit the shelves, perhaps around June 2nd?

hmm if this turns out to be true then i all BS on GW's "no rumours" policy, they must be purposefully releasing this stuff to BoW and there like

Hm.....

This is interesting .

I eagerly await 8pm.

GW must be giving them this, surely they would come down on BoW with apocalyptic force if they weren't?

So that's a "no" to a plastic Thunderhawk, and a "yes" to plastic support for the Space Marines getting that much more bloated.

Hopefully they've got a better server capacity this time around. We all remember the Mantic Warpath debut don't we?

Would be quite a scoop..

Well by posting this, I probably doomed their server.

I have been thinking that BOW has had an inside connection at GW for a while now.

LOL, probably, the pics will fly around the interwebs pretty quick anyway...

BOW is GW, BOW is Wayland. The tinfoil hat brigade must be having a field day.

I predict some kind of mid quality photos like when they scooped the Necron stuff.

BOW is people!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHH!!!!!

Stormtalon?

Well... the Chibi-Hawk had no fuselage, so I can only assume that to maintain balance the Stormtalon will have no wings/engines.

I'll wait till the show's over and the pics of it are all over the interwebs 5 minutes later gonna be at work anyway, can't watch a video about army men or the boss will get mad :(

I suspect /tg/ will have it befoe BOW does.

They say they'll take a "look" at them. Pretty vague.

I'm sure somebody will spoil BoW's party.

Come on people, spoil it and give us an early treat!

5 and a bit hours to do the good thing!

Look forward to seeing these. Less keen on the name "stormtalon" though. Also interested to see if GW will respond to BoW doing this...

So that's a "no" to an original comment.

Maybe they will slot together to form one decent mini-Hawk.

I probably won't be home then (9 PM local) so I guess I'll skip the inevitable server crash and accompanying nerdrage and desperation and just check back when the pics appear on Dakka.

Remember, a picture is worth a thousand words, but 60 minutes of BoW video is worth maybe half a paragraph of text.

Here's hoping the Storm talon isn't as cripplingly disappointing as the Thunderchicken was..

Agreed, and I hope they're may be 'Chaosy' stuff or rules for these marine flyers.

Every thing is chaos 'ready', you just need to add spikes.

Woot! More plastic = better game.

MMMMM yes right into my veins, dem ork flyers sound mighty FINE. If they look as good as they sound, I will not sell my small ork army but expand upon them.


Pfft what am I saying of course I will be picking up a storm talon anyway and adding 'spikes' to it and zeals for the other black templar pimp my ride special.

woot

I just squeeled like a little girl...

Wait what? It's not an online show? sad panda, very sad panda indeed


Do you guys think this means no possible codex release in June?

Considering that June/July should be 6th edition, yes. But it had nothing to do with these fliers and everything to do with them being busy with 6th edition. There should be a September/October codex, though.

I think it might be, I was just asking those who has seen it if it is...like I said, I've only ever watched on the table. From back when it base YouTube based to now, when it's on late night TV

Who else remembers them showing sketches for one of their "previews"?

Phew as long as there is something to keep me busy until then

How awesome would it be at the end of the show for BOW to go: "Oh yeah we almost forgot, 6th edition at the end of the month."

I wonder who is giving BOW this info.

Also...anyone remember how that "super monolith" turned out?

Could be a similar scenario :(
