sockwithaticket Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 They are not reviving epic! They are doing it as a new scale! Also, Dantay .... i think she stole your designs haha xD Prob 10mm scale instead of 6 mm. They are not reviving epic! They are doing it as a new scale! Also, Dantay .... i think she stole your designs haha xD New scale? That's going to go down well...It has been SO long since they stopped making any epic scale models. They can not be a slave to the past.There are people that still use Rogue Trader and 2nd ed. models in their armies. Taking Epic to a different scale threatens to lose people who already have armies and would be looking to add to them/use them with new rules rather than start all over again from scratch.Aww, xwing beat me to it.This can be on a separate thread but I'm not understanding this right but if players return with their old armies and not buy new models anyway I'm not sure it a big diff for them. Now, depending on the box set I can see that being a concern. Anyway, that's not for here:) I'm so excited for Epic though! People who return with old armies still buy rules, campaign books and all sorts of auxilliary products (which are products with large mark ups). Not to mention that if you've already bought in, the temptation to add new stuff to your existing force is significant. I suspect people are more likely to do that thatn start something from scratch. The new Knight needs bulkier legs with a wider stance. Looks like a strong breeze would knock it over at the moment with that very high centre of gravity.

Xwingt65 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 So... No Primarch models .... At all...?? Wow! The Inferno panel is this afternoon. If a primarch will make an appearance, it will be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquid_O Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 So... No Primarch models .... At all...?? Wow! I've seen in a few places that Corax was supposed to be the Primarch reveal for this weekend but was "stolen" to show off at the GW birthday bash a little while back. We might still see something new at the book7 seminar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parweke Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 One thing I noticed from all the news is that vindicators can be taken as squadrons now, but whatabout sicarans? Also, if so, can we mix both types in a squadron? edit: and that new knight is going to find its way to my table! I like it a lot! Also all the new mechanicum stuff too...

Ishagu Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 That new Knight is brilliant. I'm definitely interested in getting one! I can't tell if it's 2 twin linked Neutron Lasers or Volcano Cannons. I'm certainly hoping they're D weapons!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viridia Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 The style for the Rout looks good, much more Celtic than what GW currently has with 'runes everywhere'. If they start doing bare heads I think I'll stop going to Spellcrow for the War Wyrms and go full-on FW. Also, a question; can someone confirm if this book has updated rules for all the currently-available Legion-exclusive units, or only the ones that have been updated? As for that knight, the more I see it the more I want it so I can stick tracks on it and call it an Armored Core in faux-Gothic. Not too sure about the Secutarii, since at the moment they don't seem to have any legs. Very glad about the multitude of new ROW's, especially that Armoured Company. Think I might have to ditch the Volkite/Terror Squad Heads order and start haunting the interwebz for secondhand predators. Don't suppose anyone knows if it allows Predators as compulsory troops and how it affects the rest of the FoC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
