A quick GD UK report


Wolf Guard Hengist

Recommended Posts

So I waited in line, got inside, waited in line, no codex?!? What a joke, I did come away with 3 boxes of Space Wolves and 2 boxes of Wolf Guard to get me going but no book. It just seems stupid to release the minis but no book, I did get a copy of White Dwarf signed by Phil kelly and told him I wanted to strangle him for A) not releasing the codex and :) taking our runic charms off us. (And to the nerds out there yes I do realise option A has nothing to do with him.)

 

There was some nice dsplay case with Wolfy figures in and the Prospero battle looked awesome, Russ was about a turn away from getting into close combat with Magnus when I checked it out.

just got back from games day myself...great day..though very miffed bout no codex!!

 

got lots of wolf kits and some nice forgeworld bitz to go with it

 

the prospero board was fantastic! as was the battle for the keep board! would love to fight battles on both of those tables

 

there was loadsa space wolf minis in the cabinets and posters all over the place...the space wolves t-shirt wasnt half bad but for the big games day slogan on the back!

 

think mikal went wulfen when the news of no codex went round :)

Evening all! It seems that the display cabinets had shielding that fooled my optics and prevented evidence from being gathered, however I was able to grab some shots of the lovely Space Wolf Diorama before my services were reallocated.

 

(Why is it that photobucket is being incredibly slow uploading these particular pictures?)

 

Enjoy:

Beautifully modelled yet poorly photographed, I reckon I could have a career with GW!

 

 

I was a bit miffed by the lack of codex even though I have already made my lists I wanted the fluff, and the lack of blisters upset me too but not as much as waiting two hours for a stupid forge world reservation.

 

I bought far too much stuff today: 2 Pack boxes, 1 Wolf Guard box, 1 scout box, 2 assault squads and a Helios.

 

Also I was told the Prospero battle was not happening which is why the space wolf poster wasn't available either. So I'm now kicking myself.

seriosly i was expecting loads of pictures! alas, nothing...

 

EDIT: Thanks Mikal! although still hoping for more...

 

Yeah spending a third of my day trying to get my Land Raider cut into exploration time quite harshly. Plus I had to check out my friends Golden Demon entries

Thanks for the pics Wolfheart, I really enjoyed scrutinising them.

 

Cheers

 

Yeah, they seemed to turn out much better on the little LCD screen but hey, it's done now. I particularly like the gaunts swarming the speeder and the vindicator that was lurking in the gate (No pictures of it)
