Im really looking forward to playing with some of those new plastics, though im really disappointed with the heavy flamer. Looks awful. Need to come up with something else for my Catachans.

Anybody got any of the metal Catachan heavy flamers they want to get rid of?

Oh yeah...now that I'm back too...a little note I noticed in the Guard stuff in the May WD.

If you looked at the "available now" pages at the Guard Codex entry....there was a preview spread next to the cover of the Leman Russ page. Small, but the usual "you'll make out the names but not the rules" size. And lo and behold what Russ variants did I see?

Russ, Demolisher, Vanquisher, Exterminator, Executioner, Eradicator and Punisher.

I guess there was some truth to those Spanish rumours after all eh :D

Aye, you too. Had a few interesting conversations with Robin and Alessio later in the day. Although my enjoyment of the Seminar was somewhat hampered by what happened regarding some guy who travelled up to it with us who apparently didn't understand the words "Put your hand up and ask your question" as well as apparently feeling the need to grill Robin on every little detail. So if he got on any of your nerves too during that, apologies :D

I am a big fan of the "swagger stick" on the cadian command sprue, just what every good RSM/SWO needs to kick arse!

Sweet russ variant with the single barrel VMB, that needs work to really look good though.

They have sold out on originality when it comes to Superheavy names i see, not impressed at all with that one.

However, this lot does make me think that i will be starting a tau auxilliaries army very shortly (read counts as IG)

I'd assume the Pathfinders are Direct Editions. Did FW have a presence?

Jes wasn't sure cos it wasn't his, but thought it was a fusion gun a la dante. No FW presence as far as I saw.

Space Wolves
Wolverine style SW will come out in March with the apoc releases and the codex will come out in "a few codexes time".

Dark Eldar
Jes has started the sculpting but since he's redoing pretty much the entire range he thinks it'll be 2 years ish before things come to fruition. The new minis will be neither craftworlders with spikes or based on the current range. He told me that his plan was to have a common ancester for both and where the CFE became more regimented, DE went the other way. Think of the comparison between SM and CSM (That's not to say DE will grow horns/tenticles/claws). He also said that since the DE were low on background that it was a little like creating a whole new race in some ways.

Other stuff
The Eldar jetbike is ready to role, but the bods in charge are waiting for a suitable release point. It'll probably be released as a squadron, and no the autrach is not designed for it.

I don't pertiularly like the VMB on the russ (the model) but that being said I would build my own VMB for a russ turret. But did I see a model for Farsight? I've seen abounch of picts for the that jet bike, and well I can't wait for my DE to have a new toy. :)

Thanks to everyone for the Pict's and news.

Not for long, I love converting CWE to DE, I've got an army almost completed.



Edit: Also anyone notice that longlas Sniper Rifle with the command squad.
