Is it just me or does the new Knight look like it was "inspired" by the Leviathan?  [RSS] Share on facebook Share on Twitter Submit to Reddit

Is it me or did GW just straight up xerox Dreamforge's ideas?

I might be jumping the gun here, you tell me...

No madam, 40,000 is the year that this game is set in. Not how much it costs. Though you may have a point. - GW Fulchester

Well, ok, I guess I was jumping the gun.

I don't know how many have seen DF big boys before GW big boys though (exempting Forgeworld, Riptides and WKs mind you). I started the hobby '06.

Yeah, you're looking at it from the wrong way around. Also there's nothing news or rumors about this.

I think that the Dreamforge model had something to do with the models release but definately not borrowed thats for sure.

First, this was in the wrong forum, so I moved it.

Second, as others have pointed out, the Imperial Knight predates the Leviathan by several decades.

Since this will only result in numerous violations of Rule #1, I am locking the thread.

Trust me, no matter what damage they have the potential to do, single-shot weapons always flatter to deceive in 40k.                                                                                                       Rule #1
