Recommended Posts

Well it's here: BROTHERHOOD OF THE STORM!

 

Limited edition but with a twist. Unlimited numbers available for order between September 21 and 28, so limited time period, but available to all who order it in that time. Still be numbered and author signed!!!

Interesting to finally hear something about the Heresy era Scars, but £30 for a novella? That's more than a little steep if you ask me. :P

 

 

Yes it is steep but there is already a proven market for it. The only one I've got is Aurellian but that was because I wanted to see what happened to Lorgar in the Eye of Terror (and I've enjoyed it loads and got a MSPaint drawn cat from A D-B too). I do want to read this but I'm not going to pay £30 for it. I think if BL did it for £15 I would be tempted and would most likely buy it

Atleast this time they will print as many as there is demand, rather than crashing their servers on day 1 :P .... I will be getting it since I am an unashamed collector.... I don't drink, smoke, do drugs nor gamble.... I gotta blow my dosh on somthing... :o

Some artwork from inside the book. Looks terrible if you ask me...

 

I like it. I really like the Jetbike.

 

 

 

Wow, that's... well, disappointing.

Why?

So let me get this straight.

 

In the nearly CENTURY since Ullanor, the White Scars have been fighting the SAME ENEMY in the SAME SYSTEM?

 

Wow, that's... well, disappointing.

I don't think that's right because the Ullanor campaign was only concluded just over a year before the start of Horus Rising.

I wouldn't doubt there is some continuity issues.

The jetbike is fine. Not one of Neils best, but fine. But the portraits from inside the book (done by some other guy) looks like photoshop concept sketches before the real artwork.

I think it's to nobble the eBay sales after it's been released, as a lot of people seem to buy the book and then sell it on at double or triple the price!

I recently saw 2 copies of Aurilean on Amazon for $500 each.

Both the extract and Chris Wraight's little blog post for BL make this look like it will be a well written novella. I was intrigued by the line about Russ being exasperated by Jhagatai, as I always understood there to be a relatively close relationship between the two wild Primarchs. Should be good to get a bit more of an insight at any rate.

It seems the general rule is: No matter how good friends some primarchs seems to be, they actually don't like each other. Unless one of them is Horus.

yea, i'm reading "Fear to Tread" and am waiting for Sanguinius to start judo chopping one legged orphans.

 

thats my only regret of the HH series, most of the loyal primarchs are douchier than i would have thought, and most traitor primarchs are poor misunderstood victims.

The art looks quite nice to me. For everyone's convenience...

Have you seen some of the Squat and Wolf mini's thru the years? Some would think facial hair is a suitable apparatus for surviving in hostile alien environments and void space ^.^

 

edit: Art looks great! Would expect a little heavier scarification markings though
