So, has FW basically given up the ghost on non-Marine models?
I mean, what was the last release which wasn't marines? The Tesseract Barge in Fall of Orpheus?
I know this HH stuff is a cash cow, but there are other thing than marines. I hear Elysian players still wanting their carapace vets/stormtroopers, or the Necron characters introduced in IA12, or Death Korps with Laspistols/close combat weapons, as a few examples.
Therefore, I conclude, Valve should announce Half Life 2: Episode 3.

Its because ordinance is still a word.
However, firing ordinance at someone isn't nearly as threatening as firing ordnance at someone.
Ordinance is a local law, or bill, or other form of legislation.
Ordnance is high caliber explosives.
No 'I' in ordnance.
Don't drown the enemy in legislation, drown them in explosives.

i'm loving the Lorgar model - not the most inspiring of the primarchs but i think a cracking depiction of his 'weaker self'. The sculpt begs for a better paint job when he becomes clad in crimson and the opportunity for NMM and OSL painting fanatics.
Also good to see that 55GBP wasnt going to be their standard cost for characters and primarchs across the board.
As he's the most realistic primarch to get in lower point games i suspect i'll be breaking my primarch cherry with this model

I like that one, I'm patiently waiting for Sanguinius mostly, but I think this one has the most character of the sculpts done so far (primarch wise- I think the Kor Phaeron mini is the best one) and likely my first Primarch purchase.

Liking the Lorgar model- not quite as God Mode as the others but at the same time has the look of a commander of a Legion. Definitely has the look of religious fanatic nailed.
Really don't like it, the face makes him look like an old man rather than someone in the prime of his life. Personally I don;t think this sculptor is up to it, he did Kor Phaeron and Erebus [both of whom I was really disappointed with]. Pose is really boring. Best part is the base!

Admittedly I'm not a massive fan of Lorgar however Erebus and Kor Phaeron are my two favorite models currently produced by FW so with him it seems a bit hit and miss.

I wasn't a fan of the Lorgar shown at GD, but this completed version looks pretty cool, on par with Fulgrim and only slightly behind Angron and Ferrus. It's a very cool model, seeing the finished thing.

I like the model but I feel the base is a huge let down. Looks like its was sculpted over lunch with play dough. It's ashame it's not a smashed statue of the Emporer.
