Grim Dog Studios Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I really like the extra detail of showing the cockpit under the hatch of the knight, I feel that little details like that really do make the model. And yet another incredibly done legion upgrade kit, I seriously can't wait to see what love the Raven Guard get when theirs is eventually shown/released.

ImpiousSmart Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 It's like they're trolling my girlfriend. "Spend how much on what now?"

depthcharge12 Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 It's like they're trolling my girlfriend. "Spend how much on what now?" Girlfriends usually stop complaining about it once you've sold their various organs and body parts to buy more resin goodies. Usually.

deathspectersgt7 Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 The EC helm on the right does that represent thinking to hard.

Greyall Posted April 7, 2014 Author Share Posted April 7, 2014 Can't quite make it out, it's either that or unrelated, it seems to be separated from the helm.

GrandMagnus Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Im quite happy now that I have planed to do a 40k army. Then I can wait for more goodness from FW, like those EC upgrade kits.

Greyall Posted April 7, 2014 Author Share Posted April 7, 2014 @Betrayer: that's true to some extent, but WE design is traditionally straight and stern. FW has made it clear, if you look at the Legion's minis...the best you'll find is some spikes and plaques. Angron must've been put asleep with a Lascannon to wear such an elaborate armour - and even then it's almost rank-and-file compared to his brothers...(not criticizing).

Vile Siren Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 I like those so far and am excited to see the other heads and torsos, hopefully one of those heads is a good pretty boy head so I can stop using the sanguinary guard heads Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289197-forgeworld-bulletin-11-knight-cerastus-and-ec-goodies/#findComment-3646338 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lokkorex Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 i hope they release several different legion upgrade kits at once, instead of one per friday.

sitnam Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 This makes me really sad....these are gorgeous. it makes me sad how bad the WE ones looked. i like the chest pieces ok but the WE helmets are......plain and boring. I may have to have at least one squad of EC just so i can justify buying these pieces I'm more of an iron hand fan (though I don't think FW has done up bionics near enough) but I actually really like the World Eater stuff, and Rampagers especially are very cool too me for some reason.

That's literally all i wanted……I've been waiting for these upgrades….Sarum are the staple of the WE i thought for sure we would be getting Khârn esque helms. instead we got helms that look like the ugliest unit in the universe….berzerkers haha Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289197-forgeworld-bulletin-11-knight-cerastus-and-ec-goodies/#findComment-3647182 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Relict Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I know WH40K, and by extension HH, operates on the rule of cool. But the last thing you want in a fight is to wear something that gives your opponent the chance to grab on to you. You'd think that the legion that's all about close-range hack and slash would know better than to wear two giant bunny ears on their helmets... I mean, I can accept the Khornate bunny ears as Chaos symbolism, but come on...

GhostMalone Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 But a headbutt with two pieces of metal causes more damage. Think like a WE for two minutes if it can be used as a weapon your going to use it like a weapon. For all we know it's traditional of the gladiatorial pits just like the red chains and honour marks Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289197-forgeworld-bulletin-11-knight-cerastus-and-ec-goodies/#findComment-3647208 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassWave Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 They are so good at cc, they handicap themselves to give opponents a fighting chance.

Greyall Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 Running around with no plating on the weapon arm is a far greater handicap, I figure...but when the Primarch and the 8th Captain themselves sets the example... And yes, a desperate swing with the 'bunny ears' might make a difference, once in a full moon.

Greyall Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 Oh, I'm all for handicaps, makes victory all the sweeter. I very much like the WE's armour style, blocky and spiky is where it's at. Only thing I find unforgivable is they don't have a helmet with a visor like this one: http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb74/Enderonimus/100_2768_201.jpg But hey, maybe I'm taking care of that ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289197-forgeworld-bulletin-11-knight-cerastus-and-ec-goodies/#findComment-3647313 Share on other sites More sharing options...
