MajorNese Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 To paraphrase a certain twitter message: "The Overlord Race Bannon, informs me that he has a Land Raider on his desk at all times. I, MajorNese, am pleased to inform him that I too have a razorback, but it has a much bigger & more powerful assault cannon than his, and it is still in the works!" until 11:59 PM on March 15, 2017. What I'm saying...it'll double as Stalker tank.

Does anyone else find all the new Primaris boxes aesthetically pleasing and also that first view of the plastic within the box when you first open it? This picture did it for me. I think its the new CAD process of miniature design coupled with a new manufacturing review towards loss. Someone in the last few years has spent some time with the GW team reviewing with them how to more efficiently design and arrange sprues for sure. I can say without a doubt this old-gamer had a chubby the first time I opened one of the new kits after coming back to the game.

Claws and Effect Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Well, I'm out of this one :( There's no way I can get an Achilles in time. Since that is the ONLY Land Raider variant I'm interested in, I'm going to have to pass this time. On a related note, after finding some pads on Shapeways I'm seriously considering building up a Black Guard force. Just because I like being different and you see Black Guard the least out of all the successors. Plus a heavy firepower oriented Chapter will get a lot of mileage out of our Chapter Tactics.
