NightHowler Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 He was released for 30k. I think the general hope is that if he is released for 40k he will have a more aged, wise, and grizzled Viking like appearance.

WrathOfTheLion Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 (edited) He's already in 40k, he's just made of metal now. So good he leads every battle the imperium fights personally from the front lines.

NightHowler Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 You mean this old model? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366751-limited-mega-edition-what/page/2/#findComment-5610157 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfTheLion Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 (edited) He's grown a few treads, but I think I see the similarity. Thought the Wulfen curse would turn him into a Werewolf... obviously not In all seriousness, I don't see the wolftime any soon, nor do I think the mega edition is a model of any kind, given it's context as a black library announcement.

Bryan Blaire Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I’m with PeteySodës - I’d be good with no more calls for an updated 40K release - personally I don’t think that Guilliman is done well, either through the fluff or the rules, and honestly neither are the Daemon Primarchs (rules-wise) - I don’t think they will be able to improve that for Russ or any other Loyalist Primarchs either, and while I realize that some folks really want their Primarch, but personally I wish GW would just stop. They’ve ruined the mythical side of 40K already IMO, and doing it more just makes it that much worse. How would everyone feel if what comes out for Russ is a semi-mindless Wolf monstrosity - and before anyone says “GW wouldn’t do that!” - GW was also said to never be willing to bring out a Primarch at all - I don’t think that would be outside the realm of possibility. Who knows... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366751-limited-mega-edition-what/page/2/#findComment-5610204 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wispy Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 well, i tend to only criticize things for being poorly executed after they're actually executed and not before.

Vassakov Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 (edited) Presumably this is the long awaited 3rd novel in Chris Wraight's (rather excellent) "Blood of Asaheim" trilogy. Might be the first of these I actually pick up... assuming that Russ is with me and the scalpers can be bested.

Bulwyf Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I have loved everything Chris Wraight has written for BL so hope to get the new novel. I only hope it is presented as a separate purchase from a limited item that we all know is bought immediately by ebay scalpers within seconds of going on sale.

Agreed, I thought Russ' Primarchs entry was tragically under-rated. (Primarchs mild spoiler) That ending duel and recitation of the axes history was a huge chills moment.

Bulwyf Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 He really does get the Wolves. I haven't seen someone really do the Wolves justice since Bill King's incredible Ragnar novels until Wraight came along. Wraight also writes extremely well done Death Guard and White Scar novels.

Dark Shepherd Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Mr Wraight does tribal warriors v well I thought the post King Ragnar novels were good too. ADB only other one to do Wolves IMO, though Ive a Guy Haley one left to read Bulwyf 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366751-limited-mega-edition-what/page/2/#findComment-5613808 Share on other sites More sharing options...
