pathatrick Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 So forgeworld has shown they have vigil pattern, any idea when they will be released? I'm ready to assemble 10 terminators.

AfroCampbell Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 me too. And to work out whether they fit Tartaros straight off the bat, or if we have to wait for a different set.

Balthamal Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 They won't fit Tartaros, that was confirmed at the Open Day due to the differences in the arms. They're supposed to be coming with arms attached for ease of assembly - word was they were a nightmare when you had to glue the fists on. Much like the Legion weapons stuff that's ready to roll I'd expect them within the month. Probably straight after the offer on free shipping expires Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324903-vii-storm-shields/#findComment-4472410 Share on other sites More sharing options...
m_r_parker Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Considering the backlog of items that were available at the FW Open Day for pre-release, I wouldn't expect them anytime soon. My gut tells me back end of September / early October. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324903-vii-storm-shields/#findComment-4472433 Share on other sites More sharing options...

StruManChu Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Just do what I did, and scour eBay and bits sites* for the Tartaros ones! * Part of this process is inevitably giving up, because no bits sites or eBay ever have any of these in stock, ever, and just buying expensive packs of Terminator upgrade sets from Forgeworld for the single, lonesome shield in each, getting your squad up to spec, and then having Forgeworld preview a set of official proper ones just as you're done.

pathatrick Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 I'm looking for right handed ones like in the games day picture. But, what is the argument about tartaros not being able to take them?

pathatrick Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 The lack of right handed powerfists also pisses me off. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324903-vii-storm-shields/#findComment-4472663 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The change to Tartaros being a thing with unique rules was before the new Legions book and that only calls out Cataphractii specifically. Which, in a way makes sense - as by giving them access you do make Tartaros the default and "best" option by a mile. But I suppose it's unque enough to count as the 7th's special legion terminator.

pathatrick Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 :cuss it, just bought some stormcast eternals shields. I'll probably do a press mold from a warder shield to put on them.

Slips Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Thats why, in the meantime, you buy the Black Templar Terminator Storm Shields: https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-US/Black-Templars-Terminator-Storm-Shields Though there will be a bit of work to make the wrist sit properly since it has the Plastic Terminator Groove / Arm Slot. +++Also, last I heard, we'd be getting Storm Shields available in Tartarus or Cataphractii Flavors. We'll have to just wait and see. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/324903-vii-storm-shields/#findComment-4473102 Share on other sites More sharing options...
