Hmm could marine legions take one? That plasma gun is fairly nasty piece of weapon against infantry groups.

Not that I have cash for one right now :( Terrain project keeps wallet poor.

**BrookM**

Indeed, my Auxilia would also love one to go with the rest of their super-heavy fleet.

It's LoW for Marines in the Red Book.

Yay! Glad tgo see it come back. Rules may be meh, but it looks awesome. And it relatively cheap, points wise.

Ordered my transfers. Hard to believe I have been waiting over two years for them and now I'll finally get the damn things!

Sometimes dreams do come true...you going to Disney World next?

I wish they'd bring back the old Raven Guard transfers.

**bubber**

FW pricing is odd. The beastman Bounty Hunter is £18, yet the new set is 3 for £20. I don't understand.

As a Florida resident in the golden era of the '90s, I have had my fill of Disney.

And I wish they would bring back the Luna Wolves sheet. That one is nearly impossible to get now and I really want to do a Blackshield army based on them and using their iconography.

Makes complete sense to me, they KNOW that we will buy kitch items like the Beastman, they can sell it for £18 each, but they know they cant sell these ones for £18 each, so bundle them up and sell them as a pack of 3 for £20, we will think its a good bargain considering the beastman is £18, so but it, its a great marketing trick.

**OrlandotheTechnicoloured**

It may also depend a bit on how many parts they break down into

(but I've not seen it for either set so I can't be sure)

Probably never. I have not seen any test copies of their sheet, so I think they will be one of the neglected houses, of which there are many.

Expect them to be lost in the Warp/mail.

The missing weapon grips is an issue ... the SW termies look horrible ... but the AL termies are very nice and what I normally expect from FW. I will not touch the Varagyr but definitely buy the Lernean Terminators.

Agreed. It's a question of the missing weapon grips in addition to a relatively poorly done model overall. The AL terminators look nice otherwise so the weapon grip is a minor annoyance instead of a dealbreaker. If I ever got those (I don't play AL so it's hypothetical), I'd be ok with just adding the handle tip of an extra weapon from the bits box to the bottom of the hand; it's not ideal but I'd deal with it (pun intended). The SW models though are problematic in many more ways and I wouldn't ever shell out money for them.

**Crimson**

I mean I can understand that the poor FW sculptors must be bored out of their minds with space marines, but this sort of sloppiness is still inexcusable.

Argh!

Bummer there - feel bad that they were able to dupe a bunch of people too.

Still, thanks for the heads up!

I saved £18 because I still have the original and don't value nostalgia much. £20 for three resin minis--OK...

**Knockagh**

Is anyone not going to buy these guys?

**nedsta**

The ex escher is getting added to my inquisitional bodyguard, other two might just sit on the shelf though for now.

**BrookM**

My brother wants the dude with the spear, LONGSHOREMAN X.

I think FW getting necromunda is very exciting. If they do books I may just cry with joy

I would imagine all specialist games would get some sort of FW support. if they made terrain/obstacles/objectives it would really enhance what GW has made for accessories.

Iv really liked all of my stuff from FW so far. I can't wait until more stuff comes out.

**Nova_Impero**

Forge World's Necromunda is great. I can't wait to buy more of that stuff.

Definitely, necromunda is all about the terrain. Figure models are only half the game without the crazy terrain the game is nothing. Perhaps we might see some new zone mortalis at long last to tie into it. I would love some specific tiles too that would work well with GWs plastic 3d terrain.

Since the release of Codex: Adeptus Custodes, many of you have been asking about getting rules for bringing your favourite models from Forge World’s Legio Custodes range into your games of Warhammer 40,000. Today, we’re happy to confirm that the Adeptus Custodes have been earmarked for being featured in a future volume of Imperial Armour – and what’s more, we’re making some of the experimental, non-final rules from this book available ahead of time to allow you to jump in right away, as well as helping us test them out before they’re full released.
