I was all set to order a few hundred pounds worth but I'm not paying an extra 15% shipping! it's laughable.

They still offer their free express shipping for orders over 250 pound

Is that paying for normal shipping but upgraded to express for free, or free shipping?

Odd that the new IA book omits the Glaive.

Yeah, I was thinking that. Tis a shame, though I suppose that Volkite weapons are Heresy era only. Or, an even more delicious thought, Adeptus Mechanicus only...

Awesome, cheers mate.

I 'spose if they want to leave Volkite weapons in the 31st millennium, even as a one-off, then fair enough.

Did some squinting, and that AS entry was quite interesting. Well written, too, which is always appreciated.

Interestingly, that box on the right talks quite a bit about giant mobile Cathedrals that the Ecclesiarchy fields. A future SoB super-heavy, perhaps? That would be bloody brilliant. Though I shall refrain from cautious optimism, for the moment.

I think it's fair to say that they'll get the FW treatment when GW finally gets round to the codex.


Separately, I posted this in a thread in 40k general. Thought it'd be worth reposting here:

Here's the extract for the Thunderhawk Transporter:



A few points to note on the rules and notes listed:

HP: 9 (Not structure points, but Hit Points)
The "Lord of War" badge - not seen that before outside of the Heresy books.

Looks like this book may fit in with the upcoming escalation book

Structure points are gone from every Apoc books.

From the latest FW newflash - this is a silhouette of a new primarch coming soon.
It doesn't look like Mortarion though :(

Its Lorgar, there have been sneak views of him from UK GD etc.

I do believe its Lorgar, there were pictures from gamesday of him

I'd bet my house on that being Lorgar.
I took a photo at games day and have just compared the outline. Its Lorgar.

Although at this point, it's also worth noting that I don't own a house.

@Predra. When has that stopping betting their house on something? Recessionlol.

Anyway does this mean they are speeding up Primarch releases?

I'd bet on just a reference to the same illustration that gave me my avatar. So, something from third edition Witch Hunter codex. They had 9 years to sculpt it, if they planed on making it into a model. Not coming any time soon.

I also bet your house it's Lorger!

any plans to buy Lorgar here?

he's the best chance of getting a primarch in a lower level point game with his cheaper costs.

I quite like the model - i only wish they did a variant for him after 'Aurelian' as he lost his limp wristed attitude then and got a whole bottle of 'man up' down his neck

Nope.

He does have a before and after version in the rules though - I'm fairly sure it's in massacre.

I'll be buying and painting all of the primarchs and other HH character releases. I doubt I'll ever field one on the table, though. They're just pretty.

Forgot about that.

The chaos star on his weapon kinda gives his identity away even if you didn't know already, I think.

Without the weapon I would say it was Ferrus Manus but of course he has the weapon and we already have Ferrus Manus

Guys - we already know this is Lorgar.

We've already seen pictures of him.

Looking forward to Lorgar, the Gamesday miniature shown looked cool, but it's the 5th Primarch I'm looking forward to which should be Horus as Forgeworld hinted in their seminars

Looking at that pic again makes me wonder why they couldn't have made the slag heap that Erebus and Kor Phaeron stand on somehow fit to it for a centerpiece to a word bearers army.

The resin for his base looks messy.

Keep in mind that it was a WIP model, and not the final cast.

Do you think we'll see the next book before Christmas?

I don't think so, I remember hearing a rumor saying that they want to put the next book out before Easter though.
