Excessus Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 So I found this picture on the FW page with a very Alpha Legion looking tank...and I haven't seen that picture before... http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Images/FW/Events/Banners/openday.jpg Will there be stuff at the open day? I sure would think so! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286218-sneak-peek-of-the-cover-on-book-3/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balthamal Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Given the date don't be surprised if it's actually on sale. I'm looking forward to going at the very least Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286218-sneak-peek-of-the-cover-on-book-3/#findComment-3581494 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Rohr Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 That would suck given it's exactly like the cover for Massacre. Same tank and all.

Both book 1 and 2 have contemptors in them...boring?

Marshal Rohr Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 That picture is almost identical to Massacre though.

Adra'Melek Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 To be honest my copies are either open or on the shelf so I'm not bothered what's on the front cover :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286218-sneak-peek-of-the-cover-on-book-3/#findComment-3581633 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veteran Sergeant Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Seems like the books are full of pictures and Forgeworld has its own photography assets. I imagine they have a fair number of pictures of everything they're working on. Appears to be Alpha Legion, but also probably has only coincidental relationship to the release of the next book. Possibly an interior image, or just an extra they had lying around.

Aristeo Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 It's definitely Alpha Legion, look at the marine obscured by the O. Beakie armour.

BassWave Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Personally, I would like to see what fluff forge world will give to the XX. FW has been pretty good at grounding the legions in "realism" and making them less over the top. As funny as the idea of Alpharius being EVERYONE is, it becomes really hard to take the XX seriously.

depthcharge12 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I'm thinking it will be something to the effect of "special orders" whereby you give D3 units a USR. But that seems a bit bland IMHO. I'm sure Alan Bligh will whip something fancy up ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286218-sneak-peek-of-the-cover-on-book-3/#findComment-3582648 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Rohr Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Alpha Legion is Alan Bligh's favorite, so likely they will have a bunch of interesting things here and there.
