Kol Saresk Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 So I was on the GW website to check out the Red Corsair painting article and much to my surprise, it no longer exists! And neither do any of the other articles except "Getting Started with Chaos Space Marines." Does this mean that the Unholy Hour of our slavation(damnation) will be upon us sooner than expected or could this just be a site screw up that will be temporarily fixed? Has this happened before?

BOKs predicts that the release schedule looks something like this... Dark Angels 6th edition release (Starter box with Dark Angels and Chaos Space Marines.) Chaos Space Marines Also apparently a new range of paint is being released so loads or all the painting guides have been removed... so it might be related to that.

Kol Saresk Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 Yeah I saw, Chaos isn't until the October area. But the articles are gone now. And February is in two hours Eastern Standard Time. So why so early? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burningblades20 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Like helios mentioned their redoing the paints so they removed like every single painting article because they all use the current paints and not the new ones that seem to be coming out.

Kol Saresk Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 But it's just not the paints. It's the tactica, the modelling, the "how-to-assemble", it's everything. If they're just changing the paints then why take off te articles on how to assemble a Chaos Space Marine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Caerolion Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Because even their website is nothing more than a glorified catalogue? Those articles aren't showing off the current flavour of the month, and they don't have price tags. All GW articles require at least one of the two, if not both. Therefore, they had to go.

Let's just put it this way trying to understand GWs decisions is like trying to understand the mind of an insane person there's lots going on in there but none of it makes sense.

Surely every sales a good thing? And it's a lOt of work to go to just to get rid of anything that's not 100% sales orientated... I mean, a lot of those articles inspired me to buy stuff. The khorne tactica made me go out and buy multiple chaos and loyalist boxes and blisters to build some cool berserkers. Just my two pence... :o EDIT: typos.

Brother Nihm Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 There are multiple players here on the B&C reporting the same. GW has pulled many, if not all of their articles from their website. It is not just Chaos specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Excessus Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Just one article left, and that's the "Getting started" one. It's logical that they keep that just in case someone decides to start playing CSM for some strange reason... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The.Latros.Sacrum I'm getting the photocopies ready of the earlier Chaos Marine lore just in case we are saddled with Matt Ward on the book. I will just paste right over that abomination and keep on gaming! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nathan Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 considering that quite a few of the metla range is no longer available to indys... ( and have been for a while now... obliterators for example...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow I doubt it. Though it would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
