  7. New necron guy looks really cool. The human support guys for Titus are great, it's good to see something new that's still heavily grounded in existing lore.

  10. So I mentioned my friend Timperial Guard, my go-to guy when I read Games Workshop's financial reports and I don't understand enough about the costs of plastic mould injection, who also happens to be the best painter in our meta, the bastard. He's actually a teacher, a top one, head of the Design & Technology department in his school. He also runs his school's Warhammer Club, because the reward for good work is MORE work. He was telling me about this year's students, went like this. "I got 20 students in the Warhammer Club this year, guess the gender mix." It was not a political point, and I knew from past conversations with him there were differences between gender and sexuality that teachers have to be very careful about, so I kinda waded slowly into this particular pool, but being me I came off awkward like a cat intruding on your bathtime, "Uh...are you talking about LGBTQ..." "No," he replied, emphasising it wasn't that, just simply, "Boys, girls. 20 kids. Guess." "20 dudes." I knew it was a trick question, and that was the obvious and obviously wrong answer, but just moving the convo forward. "No, 17 and 3." "Oh," I exclaimed, "that's not bad!" I like my female fellow Hobbyists, they're usually the better painters in my meta. "17 boys, 3 girls, nice." "No," Tim corrected my dumb butt for a 3rd time in a row, "17 girls, 3 boys." 17 Sororitas: 3 Fraters!!! If your reaction is, "wait, wut," that was MY reaction as well. I received the Stupefied status effect irl, like Emperor's Children in HH 3.0 hit with a Truth Bomb. "Oh," Tim scoffed, "they don't even play. They showed up and asked, 'Warhammer's just sitting with friends, painting, chatting, listening to music, right?'" He explained, these 17 girls would sit in the classroom, talk amongst themselves, listen to the soundtrack from Kpop Demon Hunters X on loop, and paint. They paint whatever they like, however they like, and the 3 boys take their miniatures and actually play 40k with them. But they have these random Marines painted as Rainbow Warriors vs. the Strawberry Cupcake Chapter. Then I thought of something, "Tim...we haven't played a 40k game since 9th edition." I myself played as recently as our Warhammer Store's 10th ed Crusade Campaign, WE have played Aeronautica Imperialis, Blood Bowl, Warcry together, he plays Legiones Imperialis WEEKLY with our mutual friend who I haven't seen since forever, Legiones Louis, but "painting, chatting, listening to music and NOT playing (40k)...that's YOU, dude!" He did the look up like when you scan the heavens for records from your memory, found a big gap since his last 40k game, and conceded the point. But 17 girls, 3 boys. Not bad. Painting while listening to Kpop Demon Hunters X over, and over...and not playing. Actually, I hate that Soda Pop song. 17:3

  13. Honestly don't really know what you lot expected. Acheran was clearly a bit/side character at best. If he was going to get a book about his death, he'd have had a book about his life, where all he ever really had was a few paragraphs dotted through some supplements. He wasn't a special character with anything of note about him. Yes he appeared in SM2, but fundamentally he had a fairly limited role. I didn't hate him in SM2 or anything, but its just complaining for the sake of complaining to think he was somehow owed a novel about his death. Frankly, the same is true of Chairon also, I liked Chairon a lot but ultimately he was a game character for that specific game, its a bit sad we now know he wont be in any sequels, but it is what it is, he was ultimaletly again, nothing more than a side character though, Titus was always the key character. Uriels disappearance is more egregious because he DOES have novels (decent ones even) and he DOES have a miniature and he DOES have rules. But that disappearance doesn't really seem to have too much to do with this release as far as we know, and he's not dead either as far as we know.

  17. Thanks for the heads up, Brother Shepherd, because this is both a significant AND surprising reflection of the 30k range*. * HUGE asterisk here: my local meta loves 30k with the current rules, but ppl CAN buy the plastics for use with 2nd ed rules. Why is this half-year core revenue number significant? Because it measures GW's own sales from June 1st until the end of this month, that's how the GW's calendar works, and follows how they launch new flagship products in the summer like new editions of 40k, AoS and, this year, 30k...which did better than I expected. GW rightly and responsibly separates core revenue from licensing revenue (from video games, etc.), so no cover up here. PREVIOUSLY, 40k has the obviously biggest jump, starts leveling off with AoS, then (weird currency fluctuations notwithstanding), just plateaus with 30k. There's a rhythm to it, like BANG, Bang...boop. Because of the negativity surrounding HH 3.0 (not saying right or wong, but that negativity exists), I'd have been glad if it held steady...boop. But what this core revenue number suggests is this HH launch performed better than the AoS one last half-year: So last half-year's AoS launch period AND Space Marine 2's release, ÂŁ235.6m to ÂŁ263m was an increase of ~10%. (Yes, Space Marine 2's licensing revenue i.e. royalties is separate, but those players then go buy their 1st minis, k?) This half-year's 30k launch period, and fans of Space Marine 2 might still be here, ÂŁ269.4m to ÂŁ310m is an increase of around ~15%. Anticipating your question, what was 30k 2nd ed's launch period like? Taking out the weird currency fluctuations, around 0%. That doesn't mean 30k 2nd ed didn't sell, it just meant it sold at almost exactly the same rate as AoS...boop. Because of the negativity around 30k 3rd ed, I thought it'd be around ~0% again. (I remember AoS's launch last year, everyone was playing that Spearhead game here, it was cool and fast and popular! So no disrespect!) Other factors I'm keeping in mind: - Space Marine II released in Sept 2024, lingering effect - Pricing Update around Oct 2025, yes, that would bump up revenue, but it's quite late, like period ends in November - But Brothers et Sororitas, help me out, what other significant releases since this June? I saw some SM characters To have this half-year outperform AoS AND the initial rush of new Hobbyists from Space Marine 2, this is a significant and surprising twist. I'll leave it here because if anything, I have Contemptor Dreadnoughts to build, but I was expecting bad news, and this is way good news imho.

  21. Wow, you'll never guess where I've been. In purgatory. And painting these guys was my penance. It feel like it's taken forever to get these done. Frankly, I can't recall painting a miniature that was dragging on as much as these three. Even today, I sat down with the intention of just doing the last bits. And after an hour and a half I still found things to do. The 'best' bit was when I realised I didn't paint the purity seal on the 'Captain' and had to finish that, too. Overall, I feel like I could do a bit more here and there but enough is enough. My woes aside, I'm as happy as I can be with these phobos marines. Here, I've attempted a Damascus steel pattern on the knife. Since my Primaris Project isn't a proper-Primaris-army but rather a custom/upscaled (old) Space Marines army, I'll let you in on the fluff for these Phobos guys. The Chapter basically uses the old company structure. However, for particularly important stealth/assassination missions, small squads or lone operatives are assigned. They use a lighter armour variant and are picked from senior quasi-veteran officers who excel in these kinds of operations. Their role is designated by the grey arms and the stripe with two 'arrows' on the shoulder pad and backpack, which replaces the ordinary battleline/fire support/assault designations.

  22. Surprisingly, I disagree that the Dropsite Massacre was "fine" before this. It was "good enough", but always a pain, particularly for people who didn't have the benefit of having been there from the beginning of the series, or extensive flowchart-esque knowledge. A lot about why the Dropsite Massacre works now is due to backfilling already. It took years before we got an audio drama dealing with Corax at the Massacre, and that only went into print in Shadows of Treachery, book 22, multiple novels after Deliverance Lost, book 18, built on it. Vulkan and the Salamanders got shafted til the Scorched Earth limited edition novella, which didn't drop until 2013 - we had Betrayer and Mark of Calth (books 24 & 25) by that point, and since it was a limited edition, there was, what, a 2 year window where it wasn't widely available? Even the limited edition didn't even make it to people in time before Vulkan Lives, book 26, if I remember the Warseer days properly. Scorched Earth wasn't collected until Born of Flame, book 50. A good bit of the aftermath of the Dropsite Massacre, namely the council of the traitor primarchs where Fulgrim gets found out to be daemonically possessed, happened in Aurelian - another limited edition novella, which didn't get a wide release for years and years, and was only collected for the common folk in book 35, Eye of Terra. The Iron Hands' trauma didn't get picked up til The Damnation of Pythos, book 30, and then the limited edition anthology Meduson, which got a second edition with another story added and then finally collected as Shattered Legions, book 43. Even if we look at when it originally got tackled in Fulgrim, book 5, there was a lengthy gap before it was told from other perspectives. Fallen Angels, book 11, ends with Perturabo being handed the big artillery by the Lion - that was it. The First Heretic, book 14, finally gave another good look at it, but that, too, was a limited view. From Fulgrim to the Raven's Flight audio drama, there was a 3-year gap, too. It's "good enough" now, that we have all the material on the table and available in anthologies. But even then, you're jumping around a lot, and those stories are part of other story arcs more than anything. It's "good enough" now that you can read about it in the Black Books, should you so choose (I don't). ....and we never even got an actual Sons of Horus view of the war. For the longest time, the way the Dropsite Massacre was handled has been of the major criticisms of the Heresy series, along with the lack of Sons of Horus representation (though you could make the same arguments there, with how Horus and some characters like the late-introduction Argonis show up here and there in other books, like Deliverance Lost, Fear to Tread and so forth). It being so fragmented, along with being boiled down to the Emperor's Children legion story in its major novel outing, which only late in the book even gets to Isstvan V, makes one of the biggest events in the HH background feel like an afterthought. You could accept and deal with that, but it was a major let-down back in the day, and it's still something new readers will likely be tripped up on on the regular. It's the first event in the series that I'd argue you need to flowchart out to really appreciate the impact of it all on the course of the war.

  28. File type: Text, embedded images. File location: ship log, item 345.785.45 Quartermasters report File content: My esteemed praetor, As per your request I have completed the process of rearming our legion tactical squads. Having completed our primary mission of pursuing [REDACTED], I fully concur that the use of bolt weapons against enemy legion Astartes will be much more effective. Initial data from the live firing range suggests our brothers have a reduction of 0.02% in targeting efficiency in high pressure simulated combat. Something the ongoing bolter drills should iron out. Forever your servant, Raern Angelus, Quarter master, 19th company XIIth legion.

  31. If you like a character, and want them on the tabletop just do it. Who cares what the lore was/is? If you want to represent Chairon in your games do it, and you can make him cool as hell. Buy miniature A off eBay, replace head, done. He lives. It's our game to tell stories in, we're not chained to what they do.

  38. These are all looking great! Count me in, I'm planning on converting a forgefiend from an AoS Ossiarch Bonereaper Gothizzar Harvester. Edit: I've made a start on the bones (booo) of the conversion, step one is covering any voids with chaos armour plates from my bits box to make a mostly enclosed body. I've also made a very rough start on the top armour, though a lot more work to do there.

  39. Alright, I've now read the first part of the book, which spans the first five chapters and just under 20% of the book. I'm very happy that this exists, now. It absolutely nails the level of gravitas of having to send word of Horus' betrayal from Terra out into the galaxy. The disbelief, the urgency, the sudden movement of the war effort in a different direction. But also harkens back to when the Traitor Legions and their Primarchs weren't yet utterly broken. It also clicks very nicely with the Warmaster audio drama, which French wrote so long ago now, alluding to his plans for Signus and Calth. But damn, that fifth chapter was fantastic in particular. I don't even want to spoil it, but damn, it had impact. I hope the novel continues in this way, because right now, it is bringing back a lot of the fondness I have and had for the early Heresy, when the scope seemed so big, the drama and tragedy was very human rather than utterly warped, and you can find yourself thinking "damn, if only this bloke hadn't taken a turn to the right instead of the left, in this situation, things might have been so grand". There's a sense of nobility to the way the Traitor Primarchs conduct themselves, even as they're contemplating absolute betrayal - they're still sane, and I didn't realize how much I missed that. But so far, I'd absolutely recommend reading this as part of the first 10ish books in the series, as if it was a mainline entry, because it does a lot to lift up and fill in the aspects that were sorely missing in the way Isstvan V was originally handled. I hope it holds up. I'm not that far in, mind you. All of this could go very rapidly south. But in these first few chapters, it's done a lot of work to make this feel right, and earned.

  46. Oh hello, my name is Valkia, how may I crush you today? Anyways- Oh wow! Very interesting. How things have changed.... Putting a female perspective on this- when I started out 30 years ago (it was my dad's fault, he introduced me into the hobby of creating and collection miniature armies), and even during my tournament time in the 2010s, I was literally THE ONLY female player ever. There were several, even very good female regional painters, however. They just did not play, but one of them even designed decorated bases and sold them online. I stuck with it, even if there was some low level bullying and the boys tried to get rid of the icky XX-chromosome human, but I just laughed and then did it anyways. Because I love the setting and the building / modelling/ painting and I love narrative play. I made some awesome friends of my old university Warhammer play groups and some of them are still friends with me now. Currently, I am not playing anymore since I have a full time job, am now an older person and the active playing group is some distance drive away (living rural). But the building and painting side of the hobby is strong as ever and even if I have an hiatus of 1-2 years where I lose interest, I so far have always come back. Of the ladies I know at the moment (who are also into the building and painting side of things)- they are either just doing the occasional Warhammer model because they like the sculpts or if they paint armies, they create over the top painted armies which are either fun gaudy playful things or as grim-dark and gory as you can get (for some reason, there is no "normal" in between these options). With the girls in this school- it could be that they are drawn to the creative side of the hobby and just love painting a crazy Ork army. Probably, these girls are all friends. My personal observation is that most girls just do not like crashing into a boy's party, so if there is no male around introducing them to a gaming group, they will not join. There just is such a huge hurdle for girls to being mentally comfortable to conquer a typical male domain. THIS is maybe the biggest hint: Not everyone is as shameless and pitiless and REALLY into it as myself.... (I had grown men at tournaments cry when they realized that they were losing against the girl.... but I was just "No pity! No remorse! No fear!" while playing my Pink Angels army which I especially created to get tempers up). As for which army is most popular with girls.... a couple of years back, in one of the Facebook painting groups, there was a poll of which army we liked best. Unsurprisingly, it was Chaos, Necrons and especially Orks. Orks are always popular with the ladies. I am a Chaos girl myself. And I am also a very big nerd in general- I go to sci-fi conventions and do a bit of cosplay (Star Trek, Doctor Who) and I am in the workplace pen-and-paper group.

  47. The really deep discounts were because Wayland massively over ordered (and some places matched their discount), but I don’t think it was a great seller no. Calling AoS a waste of resources is just insulting tbh. It might not sell like 40k but what does?
