i like the DA in 40K well enough, but i have to say that the HH look is so much cooler...
the black armor, white checks, and white feathers make a great combo...
a little splash of red for the Legion badge and helmet lenses, and you have one seriously badass looking space knight...

as much as i want to do a cool vignette of a SW and a DA facing off for an honor duel in 40K, a 30K version (with the legion colors) would look so much better...
the scene where Russ' envoy steps up to the Lion in Unremembered Empire was awesome...

i know we still may have to wait quite a while, but i really look forward to seeing how FW does both Russ and the Lion...
i've been impressed with nearly all of the Primarchs, so far...

cheers

Yeah, the Primarchs so far have been awesome. Some of the Character series too -- I really want the Garro.

The Big Gun is not really my thing. It fits the fluff and theme and all, but I don't think it's a model I'd ever buy. I do like the armored track.

It looks (from the pictures) like the tracks are only connected at one point so you should be able to just switch left and right with each other to turn them around and solve that problem.

What are those Dark Angel/SW/TS pictures actually from? They don't look like the FW books.

What else would you expect from the SW? That's part of their look even then, and this is just one example, they'll be more varied in the final book.

They look exactly like FW books from the art to the font to the overall style. They're either from the next HH book or from the revised reprint of the two army books that are currently OOP.

No they don't. The art and the font yeah, but the whole red background and layout is nothing like the FW books, and the smaller red books don't have any of the art or fluff in.

I thought I saw images that were formatted that way during the BaC release. Don't have a copy myself but can anyone confirm?

Yep, I caught that. And 40k doesn't have the 25% cap on LoW point costs, so you can take this thing in small games.

You need to take another at the HH books. The first page of the fluff chapters (like the pages shown here) have full red backgrounds. It's a different shade of red but it's still red.

Has it been confirmed that those characters will be in the next book? My impression was that the next book was only providing the Rites of War and Legion Relics for what ever legions hadn't been covered but that they'd still have to wait until later for characters and legion specific units.

i'm not sure, since i bought mine years ago, when the L.A. Battle Bunker carried FW...
it would be a shame if they don't get a new mold, as the resin detail is finer than the plastics...
you could email FW, and ask if they are coming back...

The art from those posters is 2 years old, from prints at the first HH Weekender, with the exception of the Dark Angel marine which was shown in October as a "Lance Decurion". The background is new but likely only for the WHW exhibition

Is a completely different format to this:


Plus, if those are pages from the next book, the centre fold is going to cut right through the middle of the shoulder pad pictures. These aren't from the books.

Or you could use the Leviathan force organisation chart, run it in a 1500 pts game of Horus Heresy, then use up the remainder of the points to run allied Mechanicum.

I thought so too, but I've just flicked through the rule/fluff book for BaC and it is formatted the same way as the big FW HH books. I really feel I've seen formatting of that style somewhere before though. Hmmm. That is going to bug me now!
