Elahir Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 This is the latest info I've found so far, from Wolf Lord Mjolnir in Warseer: "I spoke with Forge World yesterday to reserve an order for pick up at Salute 2011 in London. At the end of the order I asked a few questions regarding Imperial Armour 11 and the Space Wolves, I was told three things: - The Space Wolf section will 'focus on a certain Great Company' - Thunderwolves are definitely not included - It is still uncertain which characters will have models made for them " At least it looks like we are going to get some love ^^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225064-so-when-is-the-ia-book-with-the-sw-in-it-supposed-to-be-out/page/2/#findComment-2701964 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Well, I for one can handle that information. I was hoping GW would be the producers of the TWM myself, while I realize that others of you where not. Of course this is still only hearsay... I do hope the great company is that of the Great Wolf, and along with it we see a new, larger Logan model.

Aeddon Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Bringing this one back so that we can shift the IA:11 SW discussion back here. So just to compile what's been listed elsewhere, here is what is floating around the web on the upcoming installment of Imperial Armour: 11. Here was the comment from warseer. SW – Redmaws company – models limited to characters - possibly two versions of Redmaw I’d guess as he turns into a wulfen on a total of less that 5 based on the roll of a D6 and his remaining wounds. May have some company shoulder pads etc but they haven’t started on the models yet. Some very nice new artwork in the book for SW. Thread here. http://www.warseer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=299400 Yep its basically confirmed after the Forge world open day. There's plenty of stuff around the traps, but a few things that i have found concerning 'us'.: Few months off yet, still finalising the fluff at the beginning. Focuses on Eldar, with some guard and a tiny smidge of Wolves Only thing I remember for IA11 is that the Space Wolves are Bran Redmaw's great company. Bran has 2 Profiles one as a Marine and one for when he goes all Wulfen on your *** - if you roll a 4 or less at the start of the SW turn. Because of this the only unit type he can join is Fenrsian Wolf packs. Oh and all Grey Hunters in his army may infiltrate and "Behind Enemy Lines" just like wolf Scouts. Still no pictures posted from what I've seen (but then again I'm the guy who found out about this late) but please post/link any that you find. So far I'm liking what I'm seeing. Given the OBEL special rule for Grey Hunters I think this would also make a good 'counts-as' 13th Company. Thoughts?

MaveriK Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I'm a little surprised about the OBEL. But it seems cool. Looking forward on some new SW art! But to be honest, I was expecting something like.. having more than one MoTW upgrade in each pack that could. Something like, buy one MoTW upgrade get second MoTW cheap or its free.

Aeddon Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Actually I think it fits very well. The fluff blurb in our codex says that he surrounds his opponents, Grey Hunters lie in wait so OBEL does, in a way, make sense (outflank would probably fit just as well though). I would definitely like to see them able to take a more MotW. Ah well, for all we know there may well be more to it than has been posted so far.

taffeh Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Hey guys, I was in Nottingham for the FW open day - normally dont like to add to or spread rumours about what I see or hear on the net - normally cause I forget things easily so my info isnt 100% reliable even to me! But it defo is that the Great Company will be Redmaw's and a focus on Wulfen. There were no models and in the mock IA11 book that 1 of the designers had there were only placeholders. Was more of a show for the new Imperial transport (Sandcrawler in the snow... a SNOWCRAWLER!) and the Eldar bits Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225064-so-when-is-the-ia-book-with-the-sw-in-it-supposed-to-be-out/page/2/#findComment-2712086 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infiltrate I could see, as it represents him getting his Company set up in wait, but BEL and outflanking seem more like active hunting, something I would attribute more to Morkai.

Aeddon Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I don't know, while OBEL does seem to be more Morkai's domain I think it would fit better if he made Wolf Scouts scoring or even troops. I do agree that outflank/infiltrate would fit better for Redmaw though.

hendrik Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 it's not the infiltrate or BEL that worries me, it's the fact that bran will turn wulfen more often then not and only can join fenrisian wolves that i despise! in our current dex(p19) we even see bran promoting 6 grey hunters to his personal wolf guard (who are to act as a bodyguard after all). how is this represented in his rules? if anything bran should maybe just have the extra attack bonus that comes with the curse of the wulfen on top of his weapons he's using. i'm not liking this a single bit what GW's doing to my beloved great company!

Stormshrug Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Hmm, I'm having a mixed reaction to this news. On the one hand: Outflanking Grey Hunters, DO FRAKKING WANT. On the other hand: Do we really need another mediocre IC who can't join units properly? Especially if he encourages the rest of your army to Outflank - so, what, is he supposed to just sit there hiding in cover until the party shows up? Also, unless his Wulfen form can use a power weapon of some kind, it's almost guaranteed to be distinctly lackluster. But I'd almost HAVE to play him because of the Outflanking Grey Hunters! AUGH, it's such a paradox! -Stormshrug Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225064-so-when-is-the-ia-book-with-the-sw-in-it-supposed-to-be-out/page/2/#findComment-2712956 Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyeslikethunder Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 i'm interested what the wolfen model will look like. Will he be full on werewolf "the howling" movie style or more Jack Nicholson from wolf? I know there there are some players very opposed to the full change thing but I like it.

Elahir Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 More info from the Open Day, Ghost of War in warseer: "Spoke with Forgeworld and they indicated they were denied rights to make thunderwolf cav because GW is doing them in plastic. The guy I was speaking to said they are already done and slated to be pushed out in September to go along with the big UK GamesDay. ... enjoy you wolf bastages" Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225064-so-when-is-the-ia-book-with-the-sw-in-it-supposed-to-be-out/page/2/#findComment-2713104 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkseer Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 I feel like this is a miserable failure to deliver anything worthy from Forgeworld. It's surprisingly disappointing. I expect to see a Bran Redmaw model and nothing else. Perhaps great company shoulder pads if we're lucky. I can only wonder what the point of including the Space Wolves in IA11 was now B) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225064-so-when-is-the-ia-book-with-the-sw-in-it-supposed-to-be-out/page/2/#findComment-2713110 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaveriK Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Yeah the thunderwolf rumor is known, but still very cool to hear! especially since they are going to be plastic. Thanks!! I wonder if FW or GW will do Fen Wolves especially since the rumor mentions MoTW Bran gets to run with them. They didn't show any Fen Wolf models in the codex, like they use to in the past codex. Since no Fen Wolf models are shown in the codex, it's usually a hint that they may also redo the Fen Wolf models. Either way, looks promising for us Wolves! there maybe a second wave by this Sept? *crosses-fingers* not to mention, anything that comes out of FW are BEAUTIFUL.

Emperor's Scourge Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Good news for Redmaw players. Bad news for Redmaw players that have already freehanded their insignia or bought the Forgeworld decal sheet. Still, I'll be buying those shoulder pads if they're really doing them. Plus, an official Redmaw to stand beside my PA Redmaw and Termie Redmaw. Redmaw.

Wolf Lord Mjolnir Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Wait a minute have we all forgotten something. We finally get included in our own Imperial Armour and the best news is that FW are not doing Thunderwolves as GW plan to release them themselves. The most exciting news is something completely unrelated to the flipping Imperial Armour book. To top it off we don't get the new model till well after the book comes out. I am firmly disapointed so far... come on FW pull it out of the bag!
