Excellent work GW. Your biggest release of the year, and your website sharts the bed.

Sterling work.

I has in the process of paying my LTE Ultra Codex and got hanged mid buy! Actually this is the first time i actually got a reason to complain from GW. Well to bad fro them( well and for me to, i do not need it but i would love to have it!) , I will just buy a normal edition from a 3rd party when they lunch it at 10% or 20% discount .

Ditto. I wish they'd finish with their maintenance already.

If it can happen to the likes of Microsoft, Sony and Amazon then I'm not really surprised that the website is struggling at the moment.

I've never had it happen at Amazon. And this is the GW equivalent of Black Friday.

They can't help it either that the server got stressed out from so many people visiting at the same time.

It hapens a lot in games and on other sites to. So havee some patience.

Not for me! That comes November, sorry, Nidvember

I've never had it happen on GW either, in my experience. Until tonight

(edited for clarity)

It did for Aurelian. Big time. That was a colossal fiasco.

Well... after that if people still complain about the "silence policy" of GW. It just prove that leaked pictures and good rumors in advance is enought to shutdown the entire website due to high demand. I hope GW won't associate his short trailer and vague informations to have cause such high hype on the website... I can't wait to see the face of the marketing director of GW on Monday morning

Well even if I did get a concussion and want to pay double price for a Salamanders dust jacket, they will surely all be gone by the time the site loads for me.

So I am actually glad I can't get through right now lol.

But the pictures coming through on B&C are awesome.

I think the Stern box is worth the money if you compare it to the terminator box.

The silence policy has nothing to do with the shutdown.

The popularity of the Space Marines does. This is their #1 army in their #1 system. Concretely demonstrating that the SM releases are obviously their big bank.

Ad yes, the SG pictures are completely outstanding. That kit is pretty amazing. Crazy expensive, but they really went to town on it.

I'm actually excited about all this. It's been a while and I'm glad GW can still do that to me.

WOW, so you are paying $57 USD for:
-Cover Art
-Clear Dust jacket
-Gold Edged Pages
-Colored ribbon

over the normal codex....

The page count is exactly the same.

For shame.

Sigh......I wish I had more money to spend right now....I would buy so many more things than I have.

O well 250 was already pushing it anyway.....

Now if only those damn sprues would load.......

God I wish I could justify one of those limited editions......Seriously that succesors one makes me sooooo happy. As do almost all of them.

Up close, and the 360s really make the centurions look better....Plus all those weapon bits designed to be mounted.....HRRRGGGHHH

Sternguard: I am seeing, two combi-flamer, two combi-plasma, two combi grav, two storm bolters, one combi-melta, one each of melta, plasma, grav, one heavy flamer, and one heavy bolter.

The tactical squad is the one with the modular combi-weapons and comes with all of them....so could theoretically make one of each from every tactical kit. AWESOME..

I will trade everyone for the drum fed bolter in the sternguard kit. that looks so cool.
Also for the combi-flamer parts from the tactical sprue.

I see a lot of bit trades/buys in my future from these kits....God damn

I've got one!!! Ultramarine dex is mine!!!

A Salamander limited edition is mine!

Took some patience, but I was able to score a Salamanders 'dex. The tension as I hit the Order button and waited for confirmation was intense!

Site seems to be "slowly" accessible at the moment. Limited Edition Codex is tempting, but don't think it's for me. Best of luck to those who get them!

Not having a separate Chaplain from the start is quite annoying. Betting on that "which is currently only available" piece. If the box included one of the new squads, I'd consider it, but a Command Squad and Razorback? Gotta tempt me more than that GW!

Also surprised at the lack of One-Click collections.

For shame.

Why would there be more pages? If there were, people would be complaining that their non-special edition one was "incomplete" or what have you.

For Canadians who can't access the website, Here are some pricing info

Limited Edition codex: $140CAD
codex: $70CAD
Tact Squad(10): $50CAD
Sternguard(5): $60CAD
Venguard(5): $50CAD
Captain/Lib: $35CAD each
AA Tank: $80CAD
Space Marine inside a Space Marine(3): $94CAD

There is no SM company 1 click bundle for $10K EU, but the one click for every new model is $584

Okay, I take no credit for these. These all come from Shaun Carlin on B&C> He might well have stolen them too, but hey, I'll cite my source, lol.

I don't see the electronic version on iTunes.

Salamanders codex is mine!

I've got to hand it to GW to be smart enough not to release Space Marines at the same time as the new edition. This will be a nice cash injection mid-edition.

And I'm sure we'll be seeing more "leaked" pictures in the future, based on the success of this release. It seems clear to me that this "leaks" are just GW's new marketing strategy. (If someone really had the White Dwarf a month ago, there was plenty of other stuff to leak).

Same here by far the most attractive cover, imo, and the chapter I have been wanting to run, anyway!

I use alternate models and so pretty much only buy rules from GW these days... but they got me with that cover

You know these are live in the GW website, right?!

Yeah, but the GW site has been having issues so it's nice to have them copied and pasted

The number of options on the the 3 power amours kits is amazing!
