I suppose an old school Apocalypse expansion would work pretty well in HH?
Would be nice to expand the format without mess up the balance of regular games.

You can always just IGNORE the FOC....The studio jackboots won't kick in your door waving the .44

Good to know. I will just pick whatever I like now.

Great models, weird launch box. I wont be buing these until much later anyways, so individual kits for me

That must be coming. And I’m fairly sure the Ursarax exist already, at least as a digital sprue layout, as the Thallaxi sprues were designed so it’s a common body.

Just common legs, the torsos and jets are very different.

They split the legs, hips, and some parts onto this sprue deliberately. Torsoes, heads, and weapons are on the other. Just Jump pack torsoes take up more space, but claw/fist arms take less than thallax guns.

So erm, no more Heresy Thursday?

Not necessarily. They normally say when a given article is the last of a run. And it’s not a guaranteed weekly thing.

No Necromonday, no Heresy Thursday - only High Elves and misshapen frogs. Boring week. But well, there's enough Necromunda stuff for pre-order and the last Heresy previews were Mechanicum only - I really can't complain.

I'll allow them one week off after last week's reveal

It's been a steady stream of goodness lately (the frogs weren't too bad). I hope it continues.

By the way, I didn't want to start a whole new thread, so I'll just threadjack this one for a moment....

Has anyone heard of any rumors of releasing the Perpetuals as models?

There we go folks, Heresy Friday with Daemon Angron and Lotara Sarrin.

Well thats a a nice surprise reveal.

Angron did look kinda weird at first but I think he is fine. He's just not as thick as I would have expected and kinda looks like he is mid transformation but I guess thats exactly what he is supposed to look like

Angron is superb, and a nice middle ground between his existing models.

Lotarra is out of left field. I’m really liking the simplicity of her model.

Hm, alright I guess. I don't really care for resin Daemon Primarchs.

i was wondering how they would make a 30k demon angron be distinct from the 40k model, but i think this one has much better posing. i also like how much more spikey the silhouette is

not familiar with the other character since ive still only read a few of the HH books, but i think it's cool to finally have a source for a female head with butchers nails. have been trying to find something to use for my conversions for ages (ideally would be able to find more than one, but i can at least use this for a praetor or something)

i know they said these are getting digital rules at some point, but it feels a bit weird for the new angron model to not make an appearance in a campaign book

Looks slightly more transportable than fulgrim, so that's something at least.

Amazing, so much more detailed than the 40k version that it makes it look almost like a toy.

I love the head, it's giving me Freddy Krueger vibes.

It’s more Nightbreed to my eyes.

Though to be fair, that’s still an unjustly kinda obscure movie.

I love Clive Barker but Nightbreed didn't do much for me. Maybe I should give it another go

She doesn't have the butcher's nails, it's just her hairstyle. That's part of the reason why she's able to help coordinate the war effort for the WE as much as they did in the later heresy since she was one of the few people not completely ruined by them.

I feel like this Angron is too busy, also I guess the consistent thing between the 30k daemon primarchs are ginormous resin wings that you will never be able to transport normally if you don't pin/magnetize the absolute hell out of them.

It is a difficult film to love. I still hope the Cabal Cut, which apparently makes far, far more sense, gets a proper release.

Holy crap that new Angry Ron rules!

I feel like if those wings were 20% smaller the model would have come together a lot better, they just feel like they belong to a different model. He's not bad, but I think the 40k one is better, unlike Fulgrim.

Lotarra is great.

To me, this is a much better version of Angron. His 40k model just looks way too much like a cartoon, especially compared this work of art.

I like that they made a Heresy Friday logo for this. And it is almost definitely resin, but Lotara looks like she could almost be a plastic character model, like one of the black library models.

Super happy with this release. I dislike the 40k Angron simply because it is over the top and then some.

But this is a Primarch I would happily field in 30k and 40k.

And also very pleased to see Lotara, probably by favorite side character next to Niora Su-Kassen. Of whom I should also like a miniature to purchase.

Nice models but surprised they don't get a campaign book to go with them. Surely they'd be as worthy of such a thing as Fulgrim?

Well, I don’t think we’re aware of any forthcoming campaign books at all.

So, I presume, there will be a campaign books, but it’s currently too far out to be mentioned?

Even if it’s a second volume of Apocrypha.

They said they’ll get digital rules. I’ve seen theories that it’s because 3rd edition is coming soon and they’ll have print rules from the start of that.

She doesn't have the butcher's nails, it's just her hairstyle.

This coupled with her hair going grey by the time of the Siege(as shown by other art of her) is why the model looks like it has nails from that angle.
