I refuse to acknowledge that you carved the face from one of my guys and then ate him so you could infiltrate my glorious legion!

**Commander Cain**

That was the best teaser trailer I have seen in ages! It tells you about the book, goes into detail, is read by a genuinely interested guy, AND shows off the amazing models!

Just when I think I am over my SM addiction FW does this to us, can't complain but what timing!

**hotelmanager**

Well kids I have good news and bad news.

The good news is Forgeworld is going to release Pre-Heresy Models.

The bad news is you're not going to college anymore.

Fellblade. Pretty cool.
Jetbike. Nifty.
Strange Land Raider/Vindicator thingy. Interesting.
Per-Heresy Terminators... SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!!

My jaw hit the floor when I saw those Termies. Oh my God they're amazing.

Pretty much thought the same thing... my mind went from SHUT UP and.... to all the many possibilities of how I can integrate these guys. Fortunately I play chaos...

**Harriticus**

This thing is gonna rake in more money for Forge World like no other product they've released before.

Most high schools are starting sections on public speaking in English class, and all colleges offer the courses too. If he's a designer for a big company, he can afford the lessons. Feel free to take your facepalm back, because as the spokesman for the company, he should be more eloquent. I say "um" when speaking normally (who doesn't), but he should have practiced his speech, and worked it on his own time to have it down pat for the public appearance. A sales pitch should be confident, not sound like the guy is searching for ways to improve it by ad lib.

You truly live your board name.

The Terminators are bloody fantastic. Really excited for this Horus Heresy line.

agreed, if they do it anywhere close to the neighborhood where right lives, then I predict truck loads of cash for FW for many many years to come

**ted777ccg**

I am going to be so broke.

**Denkstrum**

This doesn't sound like the drop site massacre book, this should be the 4 traitor legions purging those within their own ranks.

**General_Erko**

I have the RT era communications officer, looks almost identical to the new one. It's painted up as a traitor Emperor's Children however.

Q.E.D.

Who's up for selling bodily fluids and superfluous organs?

**ted777ccg**

Modern medicine tells me that I only need one kidney. Any takers?

**Rysaer**

The phrase 'SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!' has never been more apt.

I'm not above selling my body to get this book. Any takers?

**Goliath**

This'll be the one with the virus bombing and the wierd sonic-technology based society right? The one where Loken ended up fighting Abaddon?
Per-Heresy Abaddon anyone?

Also, why did this have to come out just as I became a penniless student?
Damn.

Right - it isn't!

This is the beginning of the Heresy...

**Holycrusader27**

Wishing now more then ever that forge world would set up shop in the states to making ordering shipping less of a hassle.

**smUrfsrUs**

The drop site will likely be the next book, if they're following the same sort of timings as Black Library.

Those Terminators + GK Paladin box = Custodes = my Necrons for sale

You could just wait for the actual Custodes models, which I'd assume are coming...

Good point there too!

Sisters of Silence eventually as well, right?

Proto-Assassins?

Too much awesomeness to contemplate...!

hopefully our friends at forgeworld wont have any trouble contemplating the amounts of profits this could rake in

**Capitansolstice**

Here is my money forge world. You've conned me out of it... again.

**Grey elder**

WOOT PRIMARCHS NOW OFFICIAL

**Flashman**

Once again, Forgeworld shows it's parent company how to do things in terms of marketing. October gaming budget now set aside for this

Aside from Angron (who lost patience and decided to "speed up" the purge), did any other Primarchs set foot on Isstvan III?

**Holycrusader27**

Not sure maybe mortarion I think Horus sent Fulgrim to see if he could sway Ferrus to the darkside and left one of his lord commanders (Elidon?) in charge of EC. I don't recall Horus taking part either.

**Tethyr13**

Wow. Ok. 2 things. 1) Luckily my mortgage provider plays 40k. 2) He'll start the paperwork on that home equity loan on Monday. Good thing I just got a generous appraisal!

jk btw - but how much is this all going to cost?

**lasgunpacker**

The real question is, why is Forge World doing this instead of GW proper?

HH era figures I expect are going to sell very well, but PLASTIC figures, available all over the world, would do even better.

FW tends to do things first to test the waters. I would expect plastic versions of pre heresy marks in 2-3 years..... just in time to extend the bubble caused by the Hobbit

**Doomhunter**

As long as I can use this with my C:SM army I'll buy it.
Hell, I'll buy it anyway.

Did anyone else notice the term "other races"? Anyone have any guesses?

I'm guessing Imperial Army (Before they were split into Navy and Gaurd), and the AdMec/Dark AdMec.

Be cool if they did some of the xenos featured in the books. But all settle for primarch models.
