MadGreek Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 OK. Great links on a few threads with the new Storm Raven and the new Dread models coming out. Am I wrong, or was there supposed to be several new models for the Blood Angels in Feb? Any one have any inkling on what else we can expect?

Dhx711 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I think there was a rumor about a BA Battle Force Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/218617-what-other-new-models/#findComment-2606540 Share on other sites More sharing options...
shan vener Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I think there was a rumor about a BA Battle Force that would be cool but all i think that would be in one would be sanguinary guard, death company and an assault squad Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/218617-what-other-new-models/#findComment-2606564 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadGreek Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 Yeah, I don't think the Battleforce adds "New" models - Does it? Maybe a limited edition?- but just packages models together. I was just wondering if anything brand new was coming out besides the Dread and the Raven.

jimbo1701 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I think the BF and the two plastic sets are all we can expect, although it would be nice to have a couple of metals thrown in there. Problem BAs have is that all their SCs are already represented in metals and so are low priority. A direct only second sanguinary priest model and a new mephiston would be beautiful though.

shan vener Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 actually i would love to see a plastic sanguinary priest kit (i hate painting and converting metal) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/218617-what-other-new-models/#findComment-2606615 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeraphimDeSanguinius Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I think there was a rumor about a BA Battle Force that would be cool but all i think that would be in one would be sanguinary guard, death company and an assault squad .....I'm not seeing the downside. A metric ton of bitz for those who already have BA armies and a fantastic start for those wishing to make one. Also: It will *probably* contain a rhino and/or dread.

CaptainLNH Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I think that the Blood Angels battleforce will include, new Dreadnought, a Death Company set, Assault Squad set, Combat Squad set, and cost 100 dollars (like the last one thay released for the Tyranids) . Buying it will save 20 dollars like most of the battleforces, and will allow you to make a full squad of Assault marines, Tactical marines, Death Company, Vanguard, or Sternguard, aswell as a combat squad of another type. If Games Workshop was smart they would make the versitile kit I have described, because it shows off the versitility of their Spacemarine plastics, and the Blood Angels kits. I hope that this is what they will do. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/218617-what-other-new-models/#findComment-2606856 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Captain Kezef Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 maby a new dante? although all he needs is the new style jump pack and a bigger axe...everyone needs a bigger axe... Dante is one of the few original models that I think is fine as he is. BA are lcky in this regard, only dodgy model you have is mephiston.

shatter Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 The meph model is close to it's use by date. While still ok, it's not the relative piece of awesome it used to be. edit: silly typo Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/218617-what-other-new-models/#findComment-2606876 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelOfDeathXIII Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 I think Tycho should get a new model.. I have two of him (Ordinary and DC of course) and he is my least favourite model in the BA army... Mephiston looks pretty good as he is though!

Brother Nathan Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 i like the tycho model. although a more bezerk dc version would be nice. Maby even made so that the succsoscan play him without having to convert him...

Seva Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 I have issues with the old models, well one main issue, the size. The older models are just too small when standing them up next to the newer models. They could do so much with Dante and Mephiston. For me there is no comparison between old and new Lemartes. I like the old Dante model don't get me wrong; however after seeing what the artists at GW have done lately I know he could be so much better. If the Lemartes, Sanguinor, and Astorath sculpts were cars they would be Ferrari, while Dante is like a really nice Ford Mustang with Mephiston being a Camaro-Both are nice cars; they just don't stack up next to the Ferrari. I would really like an HQ sprue with the option to build my own named character but that is just wishful thinking. I would pay more to do this if any GW people are watching. Obey the Emperor.

Brother Nathan Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 though using a mix of the new sanguard and dc boxes you can build a really good tycho, and give dante, the sanguinator, astro and meph rather good stabs. (meph of course being the hardest)Only ne that dosent quite work for is corboulo, withch you can do if you use the baal driver torso apothecary bits and then scratch build a chalice(or knick the one from space hulk...)
