Where are the rules for these stripped down speeders?

They're just Land Speeders. No other rules needed.

That seems unlikely, all the other variant land speeders have rules.

These aren't meant to be a variant with a slightly different role though, but are a pattern that was extant during the Great Crusade. They are broadly the same size, and equipped the same, as the plastic Speeder. The Javelin and DA speeders are larger, with heavier weapons.

These are just a different (or original) pattern of the standard Land Speeder. No new rules needed. At stretch you could argue that an extension of the original rules is needed to cover the weapon options but, for example, this is meant to be used as a standard Land Speeder in the Legion list.

This implies you're sometimes in her for days at a time. No wonder she buys you shiny things.

I suppose that might have been funny...about 2 weeks ago?

Anyway, welcome to today - aren't those retro Land Speeders (with no additional and/or new rules) cool?

Why do they need new rules? Their load outs (as shown) are exactly the same as the regular Landspeeders of 30k.

These localized prices are so bad. The land speeder is 12% more expensive in Canadian dollars than it is via its GBP price converted at the current exchange rate.

What a joke.

-edit- I just noticed, the original two pack praetor set is 68 CAD and then the new alpha legion praetors are 89 CAD combined. Jeez.

Exactly?

And...that was my point?

I didn't say they needed them?

And....er...whatever?

Anyway, yes, I do like the retro Land Speeders - no additional rules needed - or expected!

I continue to not care about things FW releases, continued RIP renegades and heretics.

Well you know how context can be. I took you to be someone complaining that they didnt have any rules, and all you said was that they have no rules, with no real point to be seen.

I have to disagree though, I do not like the retro Land Speeders, I can see why others might.

I bought a Kytan the other day for £50. Was indeed very nice. Free postage too!

I skimmed this thread and didn't see this (sorry if I missed it): Does anyone know about how big the Seraptek is?

To be honest the only thing keeping me from ordering it is knowing if it will fit in my cabinet or not.

i have my built to have a rough foot print of 300mmx350mm and is roughly 175mm tall

Same here.

So do we know when the next primarch model is coming... Dorn was last in february, its been a while

how many primarchs are left?

3. Khan, Lion, Sanquinious.
With the rule models have to come out a year of the book, we are going to wait for a bit

Alpharius has come out since Dorn.

Given that renegade guardsmen are showing up in Blackstone Fortress, I wonder if FW discontinued their R&H models because they know that GW replacements are on the way (and not just in BSF?!)

Within the next couple years, could happen. They certainly aren't going to rush it.

We don’t know how much work they’ve done on them already (if they are coming).

Preview of stuff coming soon: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2018/11/12/12th-nov-coming-soon-from-forge-world-new-titans-knights-and-morefw-homepage-post-2/

Was a bit gutted to see that the titan weapons are coming in a complete titan kit and no weapons sprues are planned as yet.

That titan does look lovely as do the knights, I like the scenery also but its a bit pricey for me, I prefer to make my own.

Yeah, that is ridiculous - but I have to think that they've *eventually* release the weapons separately.

Too much of a crap move for New GW otherwise, isn't it?

Do the new GW style buildings fit on the FW gaming board city tiles still?

I've done a look for this and it appears they generally do fit. Here's an image I've dug up - search for @heresy_era on Instagram for more:

It's the same as how they've released several new models in duel army battle games. Eg the new Wrath and Rapture boxed set for Khorne and Slaanesh (which isn't as bad as most as both can be used in the same army if you want at least); or the Necron Vs AdMech.

It seems GW currently favours expensive boxed sets and then later smaller releases. Heck they've done the same with Orks and Speed Freaks.

Aye they will come eventually when they have milked those willing to buy a new titan just for the weapons, not totally unexpected but it put me off, I was going to collect a maniple just for the models, now im just going to sell my GM sets and buy one warlord and get it painted just for display when the good looking weapons are out.

Well that's the HOPE. There's no quarantee that's actually the plan though

There has been an official response saying no weapon pack will be made available on its own. Then when people pointed out that weapon packs had been mentioned Andy Horae pooped up on FB saying he was careful at no point to say weapon packs would be available seperately despite them being mentioned multiple times. So they have planned this since before launch but did not have the balls to say so despite knowing all along that the weapon packs were going to be £90 with a free warlord.
