Hey all. I am currently at Nottingham for the Horus Heresy Weekender and will be blogging live all weekend with photos and news.

I just was introduced to Alan Bligh and John French and had a great little chat about the Heresy with them. So much fun to chat with the guys who write this stuff. They are both big 40K players and really passionate about the fluff.

So follow my blog all weekend here:

Have a great time, and please do keep us informed.

I've got a question for them. The HH:Betrayal book and the IA:Aeronautica book are both recent AND have the Dreadclaw Drop Pod. However, the removed the old Dreadclaw from the FW website.

Are they retooling the old mold, making a new one (without the chaos iconography), or what?


Thanks for posting pictures and blogging. Have fun, drink some beers, and take pictures and notes, lucky so-and-so! I'll check your blog out on Sunday evening.

Loken from Apocalypse40K here.

If you have questions to be asked at the Horus Heresy Weekender, go to our new Horus Heresy Forum here:

http://heresy30k.invisionzone.com/

It is a new Horus Heresy Forum called Heresy30K. Heresy30K is the sister forum to Apocalypse40K. Cute eh?

I am taking questions there that I will ask at the Horus Heresy Weekender and then post answers on on that forum and my blog:

Don't forget to ask, if there will be non-Space Marine releases by Forge World and Warhammer Forge in the next 5 years
Seems all Fantasy sculptors were recruited to sculpt SM shoulder pads and make their Fantasy projects at home in their free time ... and the Fantasy book being on hold despite promises to the contrary.

BTW badgermeister over at Warseer posted these giant photos of HH banners displayed in the hotel (7 of 20 banners photographed, spoilered because of size)

Alec thanks for covering this and all the other events you've done!
It was great running into you at adepticon in the battlefoam booth!

Is there any chance you can get me the Ultramarines Legion poster? I've got a Horus Heresy force I'm starting and would love to integrate that poster into the display base!
I'll gladly pay for the poster and shipping from California!

Ok all, here are photos from Opening Day at the Horus Heresy Weekender.

The Legion posters were one of a kind BTW. My apologies to those of you who showed interest in the posters. But I had so many requests and honestly, I think it is only fair that the people who paid their way here got first crack at them. If there are any left at the end of the day I will pick them up for you all.

Way to keep carrying that flag for us Tom!

And do NOT let them put you off with a "MKVII was the latest armor release during the Heresy" comment either - keep digging!

I've been waiting for a proper MKVIII release from Forgeworld since... forever.

The old metal version just doesn't cut it anymore!

Thanks!

Wow he looks pretty cool.. and glad that they tried to do something different to the Kabuki Fulgrim by going for the all-action pose.

Base looks awesome as well, much better than the effort with Angron.

I won't ask how much he costs however!

I'm not a fan of the jumping and screaming pose. I understand this model is really one half of a diorama set, though.
