lhg033 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 https://www.warhammer-community.com/2022/02/07/shiver-the-timbers-of-the-41st-millennium-with-the-new-voidscarred-corsairs/ Showing off more corsair models! All of these look pretty sweet to me. But ultimately if they don't have some customizability it will hurt them a lot. I don't want two or three identical guys loosing a hawk in my army so it may only have use as a one off unit or for bits edit: idk how I feel about that double sheath thing for the knives on the sneaky looking guy Really nice but the bottom left one has me chanting 'Ru fi o, Ru fi o....' (to be fair, needs more red in the hair for it though) Doobles57, Dumah and Halandaar 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Coolpants Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I do like the armour. Its an obvious mix of pointy and prancy Eldar with a uniform shoulder pad to tie them in. But overall. I don't fancy them without jet packs. Or the option of dual pistols on all like actual corsairs.. I just need to face the reality that corsairs WILL NEVER be anywhere near as good as before.

Noserenda Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Ooh pretty nice, though im a bit sad they abandoned the earlier minis and wings entirely it seems, so my existing Corsair army is still squatted :/ Really need to see the OpFor and terrain for the Nachmund box though!

Lord Marshal Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) They look really good. Mostly I love the colour scheme though. Edited February 7, 2022 by Lord Marshal Dark Shepherd 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Father Imeran Byon Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 They look cool for the most part. But I miss the FW Corsair Helmet design. Or more helmets in general. Space Pirates usually care about breathing and exposure, too, and atmosphere venting happens during boarding actions. I know that Kill Team and 40k mostly plays on planets and what not but... going with a theme here wouldn't have hurt.I hope there are more full helmets on the sprues.

Harleqvin Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 These models look fantastic. The sneaky sneak looking one is pretty great in particular, and I love its helmet/hood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedFox Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) I really love them and personally I'm glad they don't look anything like the FW stuff It's cool to see all the influence from different eldar types Edited February 7, 2022 by RedFox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petitioner's City Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 These are lovely but also maybe a bit too close to dark eldar too? Of course that's perfectly right (dark eldar really did start as pirate eldar and perhaps even corsairs as a design language), and the dark turquoise only adds to that. I do miss the wings which also looked like swords.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Closet Skeleton Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 That is a sweet unit! Although I am sure that the fluff for wraithcannons was that living Eldar could not carry them because of the risk they posed. Only the sturdier Wraithguard could withstand the backwash. Pirates doing things not sanctioned by official military equipment standards is a trope though.

Scribe Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 These are fantastic. My jaw actually dropped. My greatest regret is that my eyes are going, and I never improved enough as a painter anyway. Holy...I love these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyriks Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I do hope we see the blade wings as an upgrade option or something. I like these a lot but it's hard to think of corsairs without those.

Arkhanist Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Not a fan of this guys helmet ears. Unless they're supposed to be his actual ears, which is possibly even more... odd. Otherwise, pretty nice models! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePenitentOne Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Beautiful models. Can't wait til I have the dex in my hand to see what I can do with Corsairs or until I have the sprues in my hand to see just what I can build. I do really feel for people who used to play them before though, because there seems to be a real disconnect between then and now.

Captain Coolpants Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) The thing I find most annoying about these models. Is that that are very nice, and that I'll be buying them... Even though they solidify the fact that my entire 60 man jet pack wearing skyreaver army, that I built with each model having a mix of wyches, kabalites and some guardian bits... is still squatted.... Such a love hate at the moment.

Closet Skeleton Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 They have a real Rogue Trader/1st edition feel in that they very much are 'elves in space' which the Forge World ones were not. These are lovely but also maybe a bit too close to dark eldar too? Of course that's perfectly right (dark eldar really did start as pirate eldar and perhaps even corsairs as a design language), and the dark turquoise only adds to that. Not a fan of this guys helmet ears. Unless they're supposed to be his actual ears, which is possibly even more... odd. Otherwise, pretty nice models!It's the helmet, Incubi have the same thing and that's definitely a Dark Eldar inspired helmet. He's carrying a Shredder, he might just be a Drukhari.

Such a love hate at the moment. It's a shame that they won't have jetpacks, the perk of working with CAD is that the assets are very easy to copy and use elsewhere. They may not come straight away but I imagine that if Corsairs sell well, they'd probably do some jetpacks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blindhamster Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 they're great, i love them. They also look like you could use elven union blood bowl bits quite easily on them :D Bryan Blaire and Dosjetka 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sitnam Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I'm generally not an elf guy but these look fantastic. I'm sure a box of Dire Avengers and Kabalites could give enough spare bits to really vary up an army of these RedFox 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grailkeeper Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 To me they look like a mash up of Dark Eldar, Normal Eldar and Pro Elves from Blood Bowl. There's upsides and downsides to that but I'd have preferred if they looked more like their own thing rather than a collection of bits from other ranges.

firestorm40k Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Really nice models, if I had Eldar or DEldar I'd be all over these. I still think I'll go with Rangers when I do Eldar in Kill Team. Given that the last Kill Team expansion saw a shiny new kit (Sororitas), and an older kit with a new upgrade sprue, I wouldn't be surprised if Nachmund is similar - if so, I bet it'll be the Chaos Marine squad with a new upgrade sprue that is in this set. Happy to be wrong though..! Wildblaze 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
