Solar Auxilia at Warhammer fest


Fire Golem

Recommended Posts

Just got an email about the models that are available at WHF, sorry I couldn't find it on FW so here's a link to Dakka: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/240/616055.page

 

At first I thought the Lasrifle Section was £68 for 5 models! The SA transport is fantastic. And I love the Vorax.

Not a single Legiones Astartes release? That's unprecedented! tongue.png

I think the Solar Auxilia look awesome, but I'd much prefer to buy the "command squad" miniatures separately, rather than have fifteen spare blokes. Presumably this is a hint as to how the Imperial Army will be organised in the next HH book.

Wow! That Dracosan Armoured Transport looks superb. It also appears to have some sort of cannon, is that a siege cannon?! Very interesting when the last pics I saw it had a twin linked las-cannon in that position. Wonder if there will be different main weapon options. The tank crew look great too.


The las-rifle section, the standard bearer, is that symbol at the top two winged lions holding a big sword? woot.gif Oh my! If it is, its a good pre-cursor to the tempestus scions and my DA's always get excited when more lions appear, especially with wings.


What an awesome release is about to be unleashed thumbsup.gif

With the new angle on the Volkite weapon, I'm more or less pretty sure its a Carronade now.

 

Just wonder how the beam will be projected since its vertically placed rather than horizontally placed like on the Glaive.

 

Wouldn't make sense to my minds eye that both weapons, irrespective of their alignment, would fire a 1" wide beam.

Wow, that's a lot of awesome models!

 

I wonder what this means for Conquest? On one hand, there was no mention of it, so I figure it won't be released here. On the other, if they are releasing models from the book, they must also be selling the book!

 

We shall see. Gorgeous kits in any case. My soon-to-arrive starship wall/hangar bay for Zone Mortalis will probably prevent me from going crazy on new kits.

 

I need those solar auxiliar. What other gods can I sell my soul to?

"One soul does not equate to another soul, Jack Sparrow."

:P

...so how much is yours worth? Can you throw a kidney in too to sweater the deal?

My soul is fairly tarnished. And my kidneys are well used. Maybe I should start to harvest my neighbours.

 

Ahh screw it, may as well go to Coventry ant take what I need from you geeks as you leave.

 

This has got a little dark.

 

Back to my cell.

Hey Daemon, my man, if you ever need a cult to join, me and Fire Golem might start one up soon for soul/organ/other harvesting if FW keeps on releasing too much awesome resin-crack.

 

On Topic: If the book isn't on sale at WFest, hopefully we'll get some peeks into it at the very least. Very Excited to see what the Imperial Fists might be getting from the Book (since they're mentioned to be in it.)...Maybe a Terminator Unit? 'Cuz so far we're pretty much the only Legion (Raven Guard) to not have a TEQ unit (WB have Gal'Vorbak...)

Night Lords don't have a Termie unit either. I'm hoping the book is out soon. Although I don't have Betrayal yet which is kinda criminal seeing as I'm doing Sons of Horus. That cult is looking more and more like a good idea...

 

I wish I was going to Warhammer Fest. Might drag my girlfriend to it next year :P

A member of the Ship and Crew with Disposable Income!?!?!?!?!?! LIES! TEACH ME YOUR WAYS O' MASTER! (just joking, financial responsibility is a must with FW ;p)

 

If I were to take a decently informed guess (going by previous FW events and subsequent releases), Heathens, we should start seeing some of them be released at MINIMUM a week after the show. At most a Month.

Does anyone got the release date for the Auxilia for we poor, rebellious colonists?

Because I got some money to set aside, I believe. biggrin.png

I spoke to FW today to put in my order for London Comic Con, and had a brief chat with the guy who answered.

The gist of it was basically that most stuff they're showing now will be available over the next 4 - 5 weeks. FW have quite a busy October with Warhammer Fest, Spiel in Essen and then London Comic Con in the space of three weekends, so they've got the next chunk of new releases ready to go now (which, coincidentally is why they've had the long run of Knights).

Apparently, and take this with the usual grain of salt, we may see a number of Book III Legion units on show at Warhammer Fest in addition to the Solar Auxilia, and these may well be available quite quickly after Warhammer Fest as well. I obviously asked about Imperial Fists (because that's my bag, baby!), and was told to keep my eyes open.

Don't know if he was teasing, and not sure if he just wanted me off the phone, but there you have it.
