Nrthstar Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 And still no Frost Blades/Axes. I know we can just use the power weapons/axes, but I was really hoping for some large teethed weapons with runes. Word is we're still getting a long fangs box and a skyclaws box, so here's hope.

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I don't have my fingers crossed, nor my breath held for the inclusion of new goodies in either kit. It would be great, but I guess the optimist in me seriously doubts they will be anything more than a SW troop box accompanied by the respective generic marine kit.

wookieman Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Pre orders are up for the Long fangs and Skycalaws and as predicted no new models just the SW sprues mixed with the SM sprues.

viddar Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I think the long fang and sky claw kits will just be devastator/assault marine kits with wolf sprues Edit: beat me to it with confirmation ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295254-another-new-dex-another-new-sets-of-plastics/#findComment-3778799 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fray Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 And still no Frost Blades/Axes. I know we can just use the power weapons/axes, but I was really hoping for some large teethed weapons with runes. Word is we're still getting a long fangs box and a skyclaws box, so here's hope. Consider it an opportunity to convert, customize and individualise your army. (lol) But seriously, it would have been nice to get some re-cuts to the Wolf sprues to include the frost weapons, melta guns, maybe a flamer, possibly an actual Wolf Lord on foot box and maybe a couple more weapon options in the T.wolf Lord box (oh, I guess an updated wolf / iron priest too) but I guess beggars can't be choosers. Then again, the new flyer, new Dreads and updated Logan were pretty awesome so I can definitely live with it. Next time around maybe we'll get that stuff. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295254-another-new-dex-another-new-sets-of-plastics/#findComment-3778901 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urauloth Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 You know what would have been nice? A goddamn wolf priest. One plastic character is all. They could have stuck him in a bundle like the SM chaplain or whatever, if they had to, just give us a damn wolf priest already!

Thunderhawk3015 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I'll second the need for a wolf priest that did not involved an hour plus of conversion/resculpting to get to look like they belong to wolves.

Dantay VI Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I fourth that too!! The wolf priest in the codex looks a bit... daft with that skull conversion they did on him. Give us a proper Priest dagnammits sake!! (Although I do plan on getting the FW Apothecaries and wolfing them up anyway) Its gonna be funny to see whol comes in at number 8 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295254-another-new-dex-another-new-sets-of-plastics/#findComment-3779379 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nova_chron Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 First of I will back to feeling we need some priests that look wolfy, I like the idea with the skull but the execution was poor as much as I would hate to buy a $20+ dollar model just to cut it up I feel it would have been much better with ulrik's helm... And some more options for frost weapons would've been awesome.

Pariah Mk.231 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 The only other frost weapon variant I can see being plausible would be a spear, it makes more sense than a maul as it's at least bladed/pointy. +2Str and AP 3 on the charge, +1Str and AP4 at other times.

TinTip Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 But there already is a wolf priest model, the games day one and they are pretty cheap right now on the second hand market Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295254-another-new-dex-another-new-sets-of-plastics/#findComment-3780319 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthstar Posted August 17, 2014 Author Share Posted August 17, 2014 Just noticed in the description for the long fangs box is "Frost sword and Frost axe" now I'm curious if they did plop anything new in there, or if they labeled the power sword/axe as frost. I don't have high hopes. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295254-another-new-dex-another-new-sets-of-plastics/#findComment-3780378 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urauloth Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Yeah, that's the sword with runes on it and the two-handed axe that have always been on the SW pack sprue.

Nova_chron Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 My only complaint with that axe is the two handed pose is so static otherwise it is a lovely piece of wargear Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295254-another-new-dex-another-new-sets-of-plastics/#findComment-3780992 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Priest Jbickb Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 I like the axe but I agree that with only the one pose it is less cool for more than 1 guy.
