How are you supposed to use the units with no HQ or FOC? Until we know more I can't justify buying anything because I don't even know what a legal army will be. :/

GW doesn't believe people buy their miniatures because of the game; to them we're just collectors. They're also happy to sell you more than you need as well units that end up useless.

I really love these damn models, and it occurs to me that I might need to do something I have never properly done with 40k.... buy slowly over time. :-p
I tend to go disgustingly big when I want to start a new list or army, and it both creates a massive hobby backlog, but also a lack of ownership. I didn't build it over-time making it too easy for me to move on, a bad personal trait of mine.
So maybe I do the hobby "right" with these... and buy/paint ONE Walker per month.

I don't play 40k anymore. Still, occasionally GW releases something that I just would like to have. I think this may be one of those releases.

It absolutely blows my mind that the same company that is releasing Adeptus Mechanicus for 40K (and with a strong, Blanchesque look) is the same one that just took their well-established, distinctive Fantasy setting and blew it the feth up.
Did they squeeze all the love and nostalgia out of Fantasy and pour it over 40K or something?
Next they will sack Jervis and release Sisters of Battle models.

That would imply GW has an understanding of what makes a unit good or bad in their game system. Dakka claims it's impossible, therefore this is not the explanation you're looking for.

I just realized that if I wanted to use those as Penitent Engines to convert and save a few dollars, I might as well buy a Penitent Engine. They are 15$ cheaper. I'm shocked!

Beautiful models. A painful pricepoint on the chicken walker, though.
I really love GW branching out and making cool, new things. However, if they make too many armies that I want to collect, I fear I'll have serious difficulty saving any kind of money.

Yeah, THAT really says it on the price tag, that a platic model would be $15 more than a metal one of the same size. KIrby and his crew must get off on gouging the prices on these things, even more so if they read someone defending the pricing in the first place!

I think it means you should brace for the same sticker shock whenever GW does a plastic Penitent Engine. Oops clock reset.
