The "Heldenhammer Crusade" diagram is pretty much exactly the Space Marine Chapter Organization. They're not even trying anymore...

In fairness, they're flowchart thingies, I'm not really sure how they would be different.

Already Sigmars last battle?

Maybe it's just because there are 10 smaller groups inside it? I don't know, aren't they both based on the Roman Legions organisation?

It details Sigmar's last battle before he retreated into Azyr.

Reminds me a bit more of the Angel of Death from Hellboy 2. Either way, "Nope, honest guv. Nobody at GW has ever seen the films of Guillermo del Toro..."

What exactly would a Tzeench mortal army look like? A bunch of tengu guys? Dudes with bird themed armor? Hmm. That could actually be kind of cool.

The Warhammer Online game's Chaos faction was devoted to Tzeentch so there's loads of fantastic art out there of how they could look;

Warrior, Sorceror, Priest, Marauder, mutated Marauder etc.

Of course GW being GW they'll probably let all that go to waste by picking one single aspect of the motif and hammering it into your eyeballs until they beg for death.

Sigmarines so much ruin it. They are just lame also don't fit imo.

So your only issue with AoS Stormcast Eternals is that they wear heavy plate armour... Right.

Can someone host the new pictures on this site or one that is work friendly? This is driving me nuts. lol

Thank you for your opinion. However, could you now refrain from stating that opinion in this thread, given that it is (at this point) neither news, a rumour, or discussion of either? We really do understand that you don't like the Stormcast Eternals, and you're not the only person. However, unlike Yodhrin, for example, who eloquently explains every opinion he expresses, and actually makes people think (even though I rarely agree with what he says... ), you have simply told us that you dislike "sigmarines" many times, and seem unwilling to notice that GW is not currently releasing any more of said models.

If the armor wasn't spacemariney and the weren't lined up like space marines and just weren't fantasy space marines but castrated of all character and menace then I guess you'd have a point. It's also nice to see creative spark in the fluff and art and not just lame jump at opportunity to repeat sm sales craze in fantasy.

How is that different from "I love the art" "cool model" "I want them" and countless comments like that lacking elaborate explanation for the sudden flush of enthusiasm? Be positive or gtfo? I look at the pic and post my first impression.

The difference is most people say it once and then stop.
They don't keep going every few pages about them liking the same thing.

It's not. However, most people don't post "Sigmarines are so amazing!" continuously throughout the thread, even when they stop getting new models.

Be positive or gtfo?

No, you can have any opinion you like. Just don't expect anyone to engage with you once you start spamming the thread with your opinion, especially if the manner in which it is presented is more provocative each time.

I look at the pic and post my first impression.

Cool. Which picture was that, again?

Art from last page. First ok guo and then copy and paste sigmarines spoiling it all.

Believe it or not but I aproach art and models with an open mind. I liked a sigmarine art once.

That's bs if only you count every "nice" type comment that was posted following some art or model pic depicting sigmarines.

And majority of my comments are connected to a new model, or art or sth. Not all though heh.

You realise, that not all book covers have to be the same right?

Im going to get that guy for my Xavius conversion , still need to find hoof type feet

groovy

+1 GW

that eye guy on the book is cool if they did release him it be cool also,

I dont like the sigmar guys because they all look generic. like the brass titan. one is cool, maybe a unit but an army? nope

So we're still going to get subjected to Finecast, huh? Thought it was on its way out.

That isn't what they said though, is it.

They're only repackaging, so the exact same models but with round bases, like the Skaven stuff that's up for preorder now and the Bbranchwraith the week before.

Until the existing stuff sells through, yeah we're still "going to get subjected to Finecast".

While certain things are coming back in finecast thankfully now that gw sorted it out the models themselves are very crisp and have much better quality than what was first released at least from ones I've bought recently anyway. So hopefully these will come out well.

Wait is he finecast? If he is ill pass.

Only finecast stuff seems to be Nurgle repacks coming.

Is it still finecast? Or did they switch back to a more old timey normal resin?

Hahahahahaha.... love it.

The mini is pretty good, if you have been liking the recent Fantasy Khorne stuff (which I have, but I understand how others might not).

At the very least this guy has some nice potential for conversions. Unfortunate that he's $30, but that was expected. That price might be bearable given the super bargain one is getting on the Khorne dudes in the starter set.

Out of curiosity, was such a clampack character foreseen by anyone? And if so, who, and what else might we presume to be accurate rumors from them?

-C6

@C6 - I don't think anyone foresaw that one.

What a wonderful surprise for Chaos folks though I'm quite tempted to buy the model. I should resist, however -- I have like, 20 painted Chaos models out of 200+ that I own, including the new Bloodthirster, and I'm unlikely to chip away at that at any reasonable speed.
