Sometimes it's hard to parse acronyms without seeing it in actual use.

I suspect it stands for 'Angels of Death' - a reference to regular marines. So you can get them regular marine sized, Primaris sized, or stupidly large size, which they're accomplishing by just altering the print scale. Which means bolters and other accessories will also be different sizes in the different scales.

i'm assuming its "Age of Darkness" scale, aka : 30k
Primary scale would be 40k primaris size and Jugend i assume is whatever scale the parts were designed at by the creator

This image would seem to help, as well...
Automatically Appended Next Post:
The Heresy stuff is all slightly taller than 40K Firstborn, isn't it? So yes, this would make sense, given the scale image.

I would just contact the seller and ask what they mean.

It stands for Age of Darkness, aka in scale with the updated Mk VI and Mk III releases for Heresy.

As others said, here when they do recasts AoD is regular HH guys, while AoD+ is the "officers" which somehow are bigger then terminators while technicaly running around in power armour.

If you have to kill, then kill in the best manner. If you slaughter, then slaughter in the best manner. Let one of you sharpen his knife so his animal feels no pain. |
