Godhead Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 That's pretty much all I really want to know. I'm kind of wondering if FW will pump out TWM's or not. (and no I am not bothered by GK's killing them with their pew pew force weapons) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225064-so-when-is-the-ia-book-with-the-sw-in-it-supposed-to-be-out/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkseer Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 No thunder wolf cavalry apparently.

Elahir Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 They will have preview copies of the IA 11 in their Open day (April 3rd) but no mini mention so far.

spikyjames Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Yeah, I'd imagine they'll be waiting until the Grey Knight hype has died down a bit, so hopefully end of April beginning of May.

Elahir Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Well, looking at the latest FW newsletter I don't find anything that might be for SW other than the SM reference: Newsletter #267 18/03/11 Hi there, In this Newsletter we have a whole host of new releases for Eldar players: two variants of the Lynx Heavy Grav-tank and the eagerly awaited Shadow Spectres Exarch. We also bring you more details of what you can see at the Forge World Open Day and some exciting news about AdeptiCon and Salute 2011. Thanks, Ead Brown Forge World Customer Service Manager Eldar Lynx Heavy Grav-Tank Eldar LynxThe Eldar Lynx is an ancient war machine, much larger than the Falcon-pattern tanks more commonly found in an Eldar Host, yet smaller and faster than the mighty Scorpion and Cobra super-heavy Grav-tanks. The Lynx boasts potent firepower from a variety of weapons that are also found on the graceful Revenant Titans. Lynx with Pulsar A swift and elegant vehicle, manned by a single pilot and equipped with potent targeting systems, the Lynx with Pulsar is a deadly tank hunter. It is able to target the weak points of even the mightiest super-heavy war engines and is capable of high-speed flight due to propulsion technology far more advanced than the anti-grav systems used by the Imperium. Lynx with Sonic Lance The Lynx with Sonic Lance exchanges the anti-armour Pulsar loadout for the terrifying vibro technology of a Sonic Lance. In this configuration, the speed of the Lynx allows it to isolate and destroy infantry formations, its waves of sonic energy pinning the enemy in place and literally shaking them to pieces. Both variants of this elegant resin heavy Grav-tank, designed by Daren Parrwood, are available to pre-order now for despatch in the week commencing 28th March. Full technical information and background for the Lynx will be provided in Imperial Armour Volume 11: The Doom of Mymeara, but we have secured these experimental rules for the Lynx which you can download now to enable you to use its potent firepower and mobility in any Eldar army. Eldar Shadow Spectres Exarch The mysterious Aspect of the Shadow Spectres has only one surviving Shrine, which is situated on the isolated Craftworld Mymeara. Armed with a fell Prism Lance and arrayed in the ghostly panoply of an Eldar wraith, the Shadow Spectres Exarch is dedicated to the craft of ranged death, hunting heavily armoured prey with consummate skill. The Shadow Spectres Exarch, sculpted by Simon Egan, is a detailed resin miniature that provides additional battlefield options to the Aspect Warriors. This unique model is available to pre-order now for despatch in the week commencing 28th March, while the already popular Shadow Spectres Aspect Warrior Squad is available to order now for immediate despatch. Forge World Events News AdeptiCon Update Forge World’s Stephen Green and Kenton Mills will be travelling to the Westin Lombard Yorktown Centre in Chicago, IL, for AdeptiCon 2011 on the 1st - 3rd April. Many of you have placed Reservation orders for collection, and you will now have received a confirmation e-mail containing your order reference number and a total cost (not including local Sales Tax). You can collect your reservation from our Sales stand at any point over the weekend up until 1:30pm on Sunday 3rd April. Thanks to our Production team, who have been working around the clock, we can now confirm that we will have limited quantities of both of our 2011 Show Only figures at AdeptiCon: the MkIII Armour Boarding Marine and the Chaos Dwarf Hellsmith. If you have any queries about the Forge World presence at AdeptiCon, please don’t hesitate to contact us either by telephone on 011 44 115 916 8177 or by sending an e-mail titled ‘AdeptiCon’ to Forgeworld@games-workshop.co.uk . Forge World Open Day Update With preparations for the 2011 Forge World Open Day well underway here in the Forge World offices, we have more details of what our Studio teams will be showcasing on 3rd April here at Warhammer World in Nottingham. With two separate Studio stands at this year’s event, the Forge World and Warhammer Forge teams are preparing an even more lavish display than ever before. The Forge World team have been hard at work in recent weeks, and these are just a few of the work-in-progress and future releases that will be on show: Daren Parrwood has recently finished work on a huge Imperial Guard armoured transport vehicle, while Phil Stutcinskas is surrounded by Rogue Trader-era reference details, shards of plasticard, and Space Marines. Will Hayes, having recently passed the mighty Phantom Titan over to Production, has begun working on slightly smaller Eldar upgrade components in recent days, and Stuart Williamson has turned his attention to Eldar of a slightly darker nature. Paul Rudge’s Book Design team: Ian Strickland, Sam Lamont and Rhys Pugh, will be showcasing the work that goes into creating the lavish photographic art, maps, and colour profiles that illustrate our Imperial Armour books. A work-in-progress copy of the forthcoming Imperial Armour Volume 11: The Doom of Mymeara will be available for you to peruse along with an early proof copy of the very first Warhammer Forge expansion book, Tamurkhan: The Throne of Chaos. The Forge World Open Day Painting Competition allows you to enter a single Forge World miniature of any kind to win the prestigious Open Day trophy, and you will also be able to play our popular Super Heavy Metal participation game, which sees a Venitarii Maniple of the Legio Gryphonicus ranged against the reckless hate of an Ork Stompa mob. The ever popular Forge World Charity Titan raffle will once again be held at the Open Day, and in light of the recent and ongoing natural disasters in Japan, all proceeds this year will be donated to the WorldVision UK Tsunami Relief Fund. More details of this can be found at https://www.worldvision.org.uk/serve...3001&giftId=47 . Stay tuned for exactly which Titan will be raffled off in our next Newsletter. Don’t forget that you can still place Reservation orders for collection at the Open Day, as this is the best way to ensure that we will have exactly the models you’re after waiting for you at the event. To place a reservation, please telephone the Forge World Customer Service team on 0115 916 8177. You’ll need your payment card details to hand as we are taking payment in advance of the Open Day, and we will also need an e-mail address for you.

Blarmb Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 It'd be a bit Ironic if they did, as I'm finally getting pretty close to having my 3rd party wolves painted & playable.

Lord Ragnarok Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Well, looking at the latest FW newsletter I don't find anything that might be for SW other than the SM reference: Yeah, mini wise it's looking like a space elf love fest. They could at least have a mini for one of the companies and feature that companies' iconography in some kits. Oh well, hopefully there is some good fluff. It will be a "wait and see" for me.

Elahir Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 I find it weird that they don't release at least an IC for us. We will find out next week but I'm not keeping my hopes high.

Aeddon Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Might be all Eldar for and IG for now but they are probably saving the best (Space Wolves!!!) for last!

Chapter Master Ignis Domus Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 No thunder wolf cavalry apparently. I don't get why they don't release them. Judging from the incredible popularity and the fact that they seem designed to be the big seller of the Space Wolves, they would probably make vast amounts of money.

Grey Mage Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Imperial Armor - the books put out by Forge World. Oh oh, I've seen these a couple times before, when I'm back into disposable income I'll have to start collecting these, I'm a fluff fiend Then youll really want them. The Imperial Armor books are mostly fluff- alot of good fluff for that matter- and some historical scenarios. As for the TWC, theyre not doing it because GW is going to do it, and GW doesnt let FW touch the stuff theyre working on.

Stormshrug Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Yeah, I'd like to see a new IC. Someone with a unique new Saga would be cool (or just the addition of a couple of Sagas - there's lots of cool design space for Sagas that's largely unexplored). New tanks are always neat, too. -Stormshrug Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225064-so-when-is-the-ia-book-with-the-sw-in-it-supposed-to-be-out/#findComment-2698322 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 When does GW plan on releasing them? Have they set a time area? Not that I know of, but the FW guys have explicitly said this is the reason that theyll not be sculpting them, much as theyd love to.

MalachiOfRuss Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 It would be nice for GW to get their butt in gear then. I have a suspicion that Canis Wolfborn was released as a new HQ on a wolf mount to "test the market" for the general idea of marines riding big wolves. I suspect that if he sold well then they would have made releasing TWC models a bigger priority.

MaveriK Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 i would feel very cheated if all we got was this guy... when he was suppose to come out along side that wolf guard with dual wolf-claws. i'm starting to worrie that the wolves might not get allot, if any from this IA book. http://www.pbase.com/brimstone/image/98688820.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225064-so-when-is-the-ia-book-with-the-sw-in-it-supposed-to-be-out/#findComment-2699350 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapter Master Ignis Domus Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 According to A D-B's mighty chart of pie, we are the most-played army, yet we are the only 5th ed. army without a second wave, and Dark Eldar are probably getting a third wave. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225064-so-when-is-the-ia-book-with-the-sw-in-it-supposed-to-be-out/#findComment-2700521 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperors Immortals Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Thats because a wolf never leaves Fenris. SW collectors are notoriuosly die-hard, and i dont think they see it as a priority to give SW any shiny toys when other armies are being launched. Either that or there waiting for the next lot of releases to be perfect - because they love SW too! :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225064-so-when-is-the-ia-book-with-the-sw-in-it-supposed-to-be-out/#findComment-2700551 Share on other sites More sharing options...
