Forgeworld News & Rumors...

You know, important stuff, like when that Alpharius model is going to be released finally!!!

NEVER!!!!! In all seriousness how many years have you been waiting on that one?

Three years now, I think?

Not a big deal, sure, but...they really ought to at least release all the Primarch models from Book 3 already!

A buddy told me something...interesting.
That primarchs are released when they had an important part in the heresy, not when they got a book, but that might be bollocks

Meaning Alpharius will be the last one since he is Dead...and because with new releases, there will ofcourse be new more interesting one to release...Lion&Angel will be released befor him for sure. Khan after them very possibly etc.

Alpharius was the first primarch released, when they released the original horus heresy marines.
You simply cant tell him apart from everyone else.

Alpharius is being worked on now, as I posted a while ago.

It would be pretty cool if in addition to the fancy Primarch armoured version they also included a "free" standard power armour model in the box for him as well.

Well, even with Alpharius dead, we still need an Omegon Alpharius model, so FW still needs to release that OmegonAlpharius model!

Master of Mankind hasn't been out in paperback for that long guys, maybe a touch of consideration for those that didn't immediately grab it or the hardback would be good?

We're talking "Praetorian of Dorn" stuff here - and IMO it is a very skipable book at that...

It's available in trade (as of January?) and not yet in MMPB (not until Feb 2018?).

I'm not sure if "Master of Mankind" is even out in MMPB yet, though it is it trade?

Path Of Heaven shipped in MMPB to me today, so that's where we're at, at least on Amazon's release schedule.

They may as well call quits now, with the release of the best book in the series.

Praetorion of Dorn is a great book.

It's garbage. Only people that like it are the Imperial Fists fanboys (which I'm pretty sure the author is confirmed to be).

The author has stated repeatedly that he is not.

I like the Fists and the Alphas and I liked the book.

Conversely, the only folks that complain about it are Alpha Legion fanboys.

I liked it and I have no dog in the fight, as Night Lords and Iron Warriors are my dudes.

I much prefer the AL to the IF and I really enjoyed it.

*Real* Alpha Legion fanboys pretend to be Imperial Fist fanboys until the time is strike is nigh!

Yes I remembered the wrong title. The point stands though - after BL's shenanigans plenty of folk don't even notice a HH book has come out until months after release, and it's not like we're talking about some trifling detail.

They are still making HH books?!

I gave up on those the second they stopped doing direct MMPB releases and went to the mentioned shenanigans. I somehow think I am probably in the majority on that one.

This probably belongs here.

I received a Facebook update yesterday, advertising the Elysians. A standard ad really, the real news is that the Elysian range appears to be nearly complete again!

A few of the original items are missing, but on the whole it looks complete, including the Tauros Venator and all the infantry models, as far as I can tell.

I'm still waiting for them to make a couple of DKoK sets available again, I guess they're not for sale atm, because the molds have to be remastered, but this news about the Elysians might suggest the Krieg models are coming back soon.

I like Alpha Legion a lot but everyone knows I'm all about Iron Warriors/Hands, and Death Guard. And then sometimes Word Bearers and Raven Guard.

The non firepike Aquilons and SoS Prosecutors are up on the preorder page. Including a bundle or two. Not my BB minotaur :(

New stuff:
https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-DE/New

Aquilon Terminators + Bundle



SoS Prosecutors + Bundle

Those terminators are still eye wateringly expensive. £49 for three!

Fun fact, when I was at the open day, there were still mounds of those boxes left over on the sales stand towards the end of the day. Heard more than one bod comment on the price of them...

God damn these are so cool!

I like them. If I get any, it will be the flamer ones.

Weird that they are selling them in 3s, when you really want 5s don't you?

Got to love the bundle with £0 off the price of buying the models seperately.

The terminators are really awesome ... big dudes on 50mm bases ... but they only made three main bodies ... £49 for one set is alright, but when you want both weapon sets you have to pay another £49 but come up with the same main bodies. I also would prefer a pack of 5 all with different heraldry ....

Shiney. But I'd have to buy three sets to round out a full hokey cokey verse.

Oh, look. Another week of Space Marine releases.
Big golden Marines and female Marines.

Weren't Prosecutors released last week, too? Correct me if I'm wrong, of course.

Whilst they aren't quite Centurion sized, they seem to be basing the price off of those plus a £9 resin tax.

I'm most annoyed that they don't include all the weapon options for that price. I'd want to make some flamer and fist ones, but the flamer aquillons only come with claws and vice versa.

18.78 GBP per model when counted with 15% shipping tax
