DukeLeto69 Posted Monday at 05:11 PM Share Posted Monday at 05:11 PM The WD article today mentioned him as having a short in there, too, but no title yet again. Typical. So it looks like I will be buying White Dwarf for the first time in maybe 15 years or more! byrd9999, Ubiquitous1984 and DarkChaplain 2 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Marshal Posted Tuesday at 02:01 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:01 PM (edited) Interceptor City is FINALLY on approach! It's only been... twenty years since Double Eagle. Gulp.

SteveAntilles Posted Tuesday at 02:07 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:07 PM I am absolutely stoked for this! Now to try and get that dang fancy edition... LemartestheLost 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ubiquitous1984 Posted Tuesday at 02:08 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:08 PM I'm excited for the book but not the Mega Box, as I fear it'll mean a 6-12 month delay before the hardback version is released. Let's hope they go for a simultaneous release. And now IC is on the horizon, the hype for Bequin book 3 can really begin.

Let's hope they go for a simultaneous release. And now IC is on the horizon, the hype for Bequin book 3 can really begin. They haven’t had anywhere close to a 6 month delay for a while now. Morvenn Vahl and Fall of Cadia only had a few months between the mega LEs and regular edition. Still not ideal, but a lot better than 6-12 months.

darkhorse0607 Posted Tuesday at 03:23 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 03:23 PM I want the Flight Manual. I can't justify spending the probably $200 on the Mega Edition But I want that Flight Manual. I wish they'd do more like that and the old Imperial Infantryman's Handbook that are in-universe Firedrake Cordova, Xin Ceithan, skylerboodie and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Golem Posted Tuesday at 03:23 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 03:23 PM I won’t be bothering with the spenny limited box but I’m really happy to see this. I love Double Eagle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grailkeeper Posted Tuesday at 03:54 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 03:54 PM I was at a black library weekender in 2013 where Dan Abnett talked about it. I got to meet him (and talk to him about one of my books) go to some brilliant talks, and meet loads of my favourite authors. Just hearing about this is giving me a wave of nostalgia. If there's anyone in BL with the power to make it happen, please please please have another weekender in Dublin!

Bestkeptsecret Posted Tuesday at 04:34 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 04:34 PM (edited) Does anyone know if Games Workshop cancelled the "Black Library Weekender" future BL novels reveal event that used to take place in November every year and replaced it with the "Black Library Celebration" in the month of February?

They haven’t had a weekender in a number of years as far as I know. They’ve done a BL preview event in December the past couple of years. Hopefully that continues.

LemartestheLost Posted Tuesday at 06:56 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 06:56 PM (edited) If there ever was a time to bring back the BL Weekender, it would be right after the huge success of SM2 and before the potential explosion of interest from TV deals. 99% sure they won’t do it but a man can dream.

GW missing out on easy money because they don't have tie-in marketing and products due to either lack of planning or laziness?

Taliesin Posted Wednesday at 12:10 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 12:10 PM (edited) Does anyone know if Games Workshop cancelled the "Black Library Weekender" future BL novels reveal event that used to take place in November every year and replaced it with the "Black Library Celebration" in the month of February? They cancelled it a few years ago after years of it being successful and appreciated. It was not replaced. They also had an event called BL Live in June. They also cancelled that. The BL Celebration day in February existed back then already, and that has been scaled down the last few years to a few book releases. In 2024 it was particularly lightweight. The future releases part of the weekender is now in digital form each December, however the amount previewed there is significantly less than what was previewed at the Weekenders.

grailkeeper Posted Wednesday at 03:42 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:42 PM Fwiw at rh Weekender he mentioned that the planes in this setting have claws rather than wheel so that they can hang onto walls in the hive. That was a decade ago so take my memory with pinch of salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firedrake Cordova Posted Wednesday at 04:14 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 04:14 PM (edited) As a fan of Double Eagle, it's good to see Interceptor City finally getting a release - hopefully there's an e-book and audiobook released at the same time as the physical release As we're also getting Denny Flowers' new book, it seems to be a good time for fans of aircraft books Edited Wednesday at 04:15 PM by Firedrake Cordova Trokair, Malkydel and LemartestheLost 1 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
