Looks like GW didn't even bother to proofread their artwork as well as their rules. Seems like the Ultramarines... Don't Follow The Codex. </CSI Miami>

Anyone else feel that this is a low point for GW as a whole?

People rightfully complained about gw artwork representing just the models. Lets them have artistic freedom.

Dakka does have White Knights and is also rather infamous for it's Black Knights. A new edition brings out the passionate and not all of them are good at expressing themselves in written form. There have been plenty of hysterical responses from both sides so far. So we descend into pointless bickering with neither side listening to each other. So posting here becomes more masturbation than conversation.

Considering the past atrocities such as the 5th Edition GK codex, 5th edition Blood Angels Codex, 5th edition Necron Codex, the whole Flyers fiasco 5th edition space marine fluff, 7th edition, everything with the tyranids between 4th and 8th edition, and so forth, no this isn't a low point. At this point calling them out on artwork just feels like nitpicky to me.

Haha! This is a funny thread.

Oh another BCB thread.. Yeah you're quality of complaints is going lower and lower then your thoughts on GW's quality.

Reminds me of Traditio's postings. Are you really nitpicking the artwork now?

Yeah...

There's a lot of art like this that you can tell was commissioned awhile ago.
Kauyon/Mont'ka had a ton of art of Raven Guard Assault Squads with Plasma Guns for example.

Do you? Apparently not. That's for pg 89 only. Which features Blood Angels.

Looks like you both have a little bit of unfertilised avian ovum on your face, that Errata is only for the BLOOD ANGELS chapter.

That errata applies on Page 89, which is the Wargear page for the Blood Angels.

I've seen so many Ultramarines-coloured Blood Angels or Space Wolves armies (or conversely Blood Angel and Space Wolf-coloured vanilla SM armies) that you'll have to forgive me for considering them all one giant Space Marine soup that are essentially the same.

Sorry.

Under the couch

Given how often over the years we've seen pieces of artwork showing things that aren't a part of the game, I'm failing to see the issue here.

Moving on.
