I'm glad I checked the Chapterhouse website this week, because I saw that they have a tru-scale SM kit available. I did some research and saw that there was another company (WarSmith) that also produced a kit, but I couldn't find it on their site.

I'm going to be buying a few of the Chapterhouse kits (to remake my DA command squad), but I wanted to see if anyone knew what happened to the WarSmith's selection.

Are there anymore kits out there that I just don't know about?

WarSmith's Tru-Scale is the same as Chapterhouse.

He makes them.

Is there a website I can look at pictures? I checked his site, but didn't see any kits in the store.

Somewhat incorrect, we manufacture them ourselves, Warsmith's sculpted our pieces with input from us.

As far as I know, Warsmith was forced to stop selling his kits under threat from Games Workshop litigation.

Once again GW ruining it everyone.

So, you haven't been forced to stop as well? I'm actually going to be ordering today or tomorrow because I thought that this might be my only chance to get a kit like this because of the GW legal juggernaut.

There's an 80 page thread on that. Take the discussion there, please.

Warsmith made their own kits for about 2 weeks, which were (IMO) far superior to the Chapterhouse ones, but they were forced to stop for reasons unknown (presumably they were threatened with legal action).

That's what I meant. Sorry Nick!

Yup, Warsmith truescale kits are awesome. I'm actually almost done painting mine. Will have some pics of the new recruits for my BA army soon.
