Dantay VI Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Okay. I spoke to his Bligh-ness about a few things. (very cool bloke ) The reason why some models and kits come out sooner than others is due to the main models being completed as a priority. Once a sculptor is free, they might be inclined to do a certain thing over another. As long as the main models etc are done, there is a little room to accommodate this. Hence Eidolon appearing seemingly out of nowhere, for example. There WILL be a Ventanus model. The intention is there to do Thiel at some point too The book that deals with Calth and the aftermath (along with Angrons' assention and other stuff) will be the book after the next AT THE EARLIEST. Also Hyaenidae - the Tyrant Siege Termis. They will be along SOONER than later Thats the quote I was looking for :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apologist Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Fantastic stuff - thanks to all the Bothans and Rumourmancers. Could some kind soul please enquire about 6mm/Epic-scale plans? There were some hints at the last event apparently - even if the answer is 'no', it'd be better than being on tenterhooks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daemon2027 Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Any ideas on possible extra RG rules, like maybe some Raptors (cos loyalists need mutants to). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leoparden Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 All the HH news are lovely. Although I'd have liked to see a sneak of whichever Primarch is being worked on at the moment. Are there any news regarding updates on rules for 30k vehicles and units in 40k (IA2: Second Edition --> IA2:Third Edition) in regards to the SM 40k update?Any news regarding Mechanicum list interaction (30k - 40k units)?

Kol Saresk Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 I wonder if they're going to do Mark VI for more Legions then? Imperial Fists don't seem to be a Legion I'd associate with Mark VI they got a lot of mark VI during the mars civil war No they didn't, it was 10,000 suits+ of Mark IV (according to Mechanicum), not VI. They've never been associated with Mark VI which is why it's a little surprising And according to Deliverance Lost, the Imperial Fists were still raiding Mars and their collections had increased to finding the Mk VI Corvus Pattern, 1,000 suits of which they sent to the Raven Guard. You also then get the fact that the Loyalist Mechanicum has moved to Terra and started producing the weapons and armor they designed for the Fists. The VII might not be the Legion we would normally associate with the Mk VI but the fact is that from the background viewpoint, not only do they have access to it, but the only Legion that can access it without going through the VII are the Alpha Legion.

At the risk of sounding like a frothing fanboy, I am looking forward to seeing how the Vlka Fenryka rules and models look.Its almost making me too nervous to work on the ones I have incase the aesthetics are a mile off, but I see all the other cool stuff and I want a bit of EVERYTHING!!! Especially Raven Guard though, and White Scars someday too!! HH is truly wicked in an awesome way I dipped into the house fnd when I got some Knights, I don't think she bought the excuse that they were garden gnomes somehow!!

It was entering production, not freely available. It would be surprising if Fists got a shoulder pad for Mark VI and the others didn't by that logic, thus my sentiment. Pedantics aside, I do hope they do Mark VI sets for all Legions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dantay VI Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 I would have imagined that as the SoH were the pre-eminent Legion and Horus' ties to Mars he could have diverted a great number of the most advanced gear such as Mk6 armour to his legion and those legions in his favour.... Reading the books, before the Heresy officially started he was already siphoning off the best stuff for those he knew were loyal to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Rohr Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 I think it's important to release the background sections on the Scars and Angels because it makes no sense to start an army of them if you don't know ranks, titles, organization, whether armor is integrated or separate, etc. Id be pretty mad if I built some blood angels breachers only to find out they don't exist in the same company as assault or tactical legionaries.

It's a valid point. I just see why they won't do it. I know it's getting late in the day but if possible can someone please if they plan to do models for all of the consuls?

1000 Sons Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Am excited to see Thousand Sons upgrade bits for September. Another push back on the wait for Prospero is sad to hear again, so a year for the models to be done, factor in some production time, and maybe some delays for re-sculpts and we are looking at 2017. It's a shame that all these useless legions have taken up so much time . Any word on rules for the chaos knights ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dantay VI Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Aye, but the T-Son upgrade kit is already done or so I believe wih a release date of September?? So atleast you can start making some cool looking legionnaries while we wait for the book to drop, but as Rohr says having the rules is great as then we know whats legal and whats not!!
