Will be a bitch to transport though..

It is designed so the wings are removable so at least it's a bit easier to transport. Still looks like a pain, but not as bad.

Really? Because that's the first time I hear somebody actually doing that. That's pretty cool of PP.

Okay, so it's not nearly as exciting as the Archangel pic but, Tharn Archers:

Admonition and Refuge won't work. Colossals and Gargantuans can only move during their normal movement.

a Very nice model.

At this rate, its possible that all the Biggens will be out this year!

They just have to fit Mammoth/Archangel in there.. and we have seen the Mammoth model s pretty well finished.

They've already said they're not all making it out this year. I don't even believe the Galleon is making it out this year.

At least it'll let you get models base to base with it. After seeing the huge cow-catcher tusks sweeping out in front of the Mammoth, well....

Fits right in with every other skorne beast then... sigh.

Tharn archers. Ugh. I just want an in faction ranged option that doesn't suck. Why is that too much to ask for?

Given we've got no idea what they do yet, Nagashek, isn't it a little early to be that far around the DOOM! cycle?

4 archers on a medium base better be at least Stormfall archer good or it's a bust. No doom, no gloom, just the truth...

Love this model. Okay, there's my legion's colossal...any ideas On how to use this for Tyranids other besides a harridan (maybe a winged hive tyrant on steroids?)

Fair enough, I think I meant to say "IS that too much to ask for?" I admit I don't have high hopes for them, as our in faction ranged options are few and of middling to poor quality (or simply over costed.) I just can't imagine them having the damage output required to justify their cost.

I really don't understand why circle had to have ANOTHER ranged option. They already have the bloodtrackers and reeves. AND those little stone guys who's volume of fire gets more powerful with each hit.

LOVE that Gargantuan. Now, where did I put that "shut up and take my money" meme...

Wait for the rules, I guess. I'd love for a Crit slam or something nifty.

I wouldn't exactly call BT's the height of ranged aggressiveness. By the time they're close enough to shoot, anything in the game is close enough to counter charge and annihilate them. It's so easy to counter their primary strength that they grow more and more difficult to use all the time. And the shrimps have 5 shooters max, and with their low BS (and no ability to boost) they don't often get to raise that POW higher than 12-13. We have few DEF debuffs and no POW buffs. And the Reeves are decent range, passable power, but 1ppm. Crikey that's rough for a faction with no access to Snipe.

No access to any ranged buffs, unless you count Curse of Shadows. And Reeves are one of the very few units in the game that aren't just overpriced, but also badly designed. You need to use combined ranged attacks to hit anything, but that causes all but one of the attackers to miss out on Snap Fire & Swift Hunter.

That's insane.

I approve this statement.

I'll be in my bunk.

Lol

Yeah, trying to think of ways I could use it... currently not finding a way to justify it, but there's got to be something

*ahem*

Start legion.

Look, there's a two player battlebox...

I meant other than that

I really want to see a comparison shot between this and the monster Heresy Dragon (of which less than 50 have been sent out after 4 years... but it's still an incredible sculpt). I think this might be on par with it for size and sheer awesomeness! Which is great since you can actually buy this one

This miniature will need a little round table as base if you look at the size of that wing.

He sits on a base the size of a CD. I wonder if the wings will be resin though, or if those will be metal.
