Gosh darn it, but I want a Cerastus Knight. Not really fussed which one as they're all lovely.

Almost feel sorry for the Riptide there. Almost. Die, foul xenos!

Looks like a slipcase for IA13, bet the normal edition is inside it.

Put in my reservation for Warhammer Fest today, asked if HH4 would be out soon, got a no comment type response so I'll take that as a yes. I'll almost certainly have to phone back up on Thursday to add to my order.

I have to admit that the Cerastus Knight body is definitely growing on me. There are literally Cerastus Knights growing out of my shoulders. It hurts less than Forge World prices, though.

Don't feel sorry for the Riptide. It's having a grand old time at that party. The Knights don't suspect that it's actually a Monstrous Creature.

Yeah,
Chaos Knights.

Calling it.


Panic...

I would to see a gork/Morkanaught varient or something not imperial.

Be a nice change from knight, knight, primarch, knight, space marine thing, knight ........... lol

I think its a good thing FW makes more knights, their codex has 2 units, adding more is great, as for the primarchs/SM, yeah, they got books with units to do, so it makes sense.

There's also IG coming up and AM showing time to time.

Problem is , there are also the xenos armies that arent battle brothers with knights / SM. Not every one plays an imperial army.

High time for Eldar Knights, I say.

Here you go!

So, the Bulletin says: Forge World now has four Imperial Knights available. We’re not stopping there however, as there’s more on the way in time for Warhammer Fest, each awesome in its own right.

Do you think that they will release another Knight in the next few weeks? And I'm not talking about the one all the way on the left of the picture which we've seen a few weekes ago. Possibly the Warden? I have 6 Knights right now. How low can my bank account go?

More like: Contemptor, Contemptor, Knight, Contemptor, Knight, Contemptor, Ad Mech, Contemptor, Knight, Knight, Riptide, Contemptor.

I hope not. I'm spending wayyyyyyyyyyy to much money. Actually, I'd love for that to happen. Then I can finally have an opponent for my IK army. BUt, of course, I would have to buy the Eldar Knights as well.

Yeah, the standard loadout of one Wraithcannon really has always looked like an update of the old Epic Fire Gale Knight to me.

Yeah, but regardless of what the alliance level is, you can still use them. No beneficial effects and you gotta stay 6" away. But you can still use them.

For anyone who has a cerastes already, do they look ok with normal knights when set up together (despite the height difference)?

Imperial Armour Volume Thirteen Special Edition‏

The latest edition to the Imperial Armour book range includes profiles and rules for the vehicles of the Chaos Space Marines, Chaos Titans, Daemon Engines and the armoured vehicles of the Heretic and the Renegade.
It also includes a complete army list for the forces of the Renegade and the Heretic, alongside extensive details on the dark heraldry and blasphemous iconography used by the traitorous Chaos Space Marines.
Presented in a unique slip case and including a exclusive double-sided A1 poster, this special edition is limited to 2,000 copies worldwide and is available to buy for the first time at Warhammer Fest.

So no campaign or anything new then?

Seems a bit of a rush/cash grab tbh.

Does this mean the overpriced HH stuff isn't selling as well as thought?

No it just means that the HH stuff takes a long time to make.

Anyway, I can live without the fancy case and a map. GW tries to fool us with that, and it won't work with FW.

Good to see a new Imperial Armour book at least even if it's not in the usual campaign format of most other books. Though if it's presented as well as IA2 2nd ed, then it'll be a nice buy either way

WTF GW, you just let FW sell a limited-edition version of a book for a reasonable price! People might start getting ridiculous ideas about not paying 10x the cost for a fancy cover and some random bits of plastic!

Take a closer look at the price. The limited edition is actually a bit cheaper than the other full-length IA books, so if it's a price increase at all over the eventual "standard" edition it isn't a very significant one. If you're going to buy it you might as well get the limited-edition bonus stuff included.

Doesn't seem like a cash grab at all. IA 1 and IA 2 (IG and C:SM) never had campaigns, and their updates didn't add any either. They're just books of individual unit fluff and rules, with the ABG army list in IA 1. The chaos stuff, especially the old 4th/5th edition traitor IG army lists from the Vraks books, needed an update so I don't see any problem with publishing the whole pile of stuff as a nice new book instead of a bunch of pdfs.

I'd assume the standard edition would probably be of £36-£45 price range which makes the Limited edition, shockingly, quite reasonable!

Posters used to cost £10 on their own (I know, I checked this morning but they've just removed them) so definitely not a bad price. I'm tempted...

Will this go up for preorder on friday then, I guess?

Probably not. They have a long history of having stuff available at events before it goes up for preorder online, and it's going to be on sale at GW's upcoming "Games Day was such a shameful failure that we had to rename it" event. It might be online after that though, if there aren't any other events in the near future to save it for.

Shame.

Just noticed while browsing the FW site that (at least in the Eldar section) a lot of stuff has gone up in price by 1-2 pounds.

One suspects it's more to do with the accelerated codex release rate than anything else.

Used to be X years before each new codex.edition of the rules. A lot more for them to update/correct as/when a new book appears now.

.. least that's what I'm hoping anyway, that way my once pretty tasty necron pylons might go back to being usable again

I'd say its just a good way to condense all the Chaos units into one book to make referencing alot easier, the exact same as IA 1 & 2. Save people having to buy 2-3 books to field multiple units or struggling to find the proper rules. Looks nice too

Looks like I'll have to escalate my plans if the Chaos are getting more gubbinz to throw at me. Rebel scum.

LOL! That is no eldar knight in my opinion; THIS IS HOWEVER

sorry mods i had to

I wonder if any new chaos units will follow the release or if it's just rules for what's out now plus 40k chaos rules for the 30k tanks.

Why is every release that doesn't interest someone always called a 'cash grab'. Am I the only person that thinks some people need to take a hobby rest?

Who says it doesn't interest me?

I wanted more. I've been waiting for the discussed Thousand Sons IA for ages. The release of this just puts that completely on the shelf. The highest shelf.
