This Kreig release feels so weird.  Vraks era tanks banned or non existent, Kreig officers strangely absent, heavy weapon loaders disappeared, grenadiers and engineers mushed into one unit like a Tuvix esque Star Trek transporter mishap.

 

It’s like the 40k studio have stolen them off their rightful owners at specialist games, and decided to produce a slightly abstract version.

 

Odd.

Let the Bell of Lost Souls ring out for our fallen heroes.

 

Looks like guard have suffered the same fate as marines with everything even slightly Heresy related getting the boot alongside anything that is oop. Hope the legends rules are brought up to date quickly for people playing casually.

I mean, y'all got your wish when you used the Monkeys Paw complaining about FW supporting Marines and then Guard too much. Now they don't support anything!

Out of all the Forgeworld stuff, why is it the Avenger and Cyclops remaining? Are they particularly popular? I would have thought the Thunderbolt to be a more popular flyer.

The avenger is legends in HH I think, which makes this weirder again. Inwardly I wonder if it might become a 40k kit in plastic next ed?

No, GW, I don't think I will. Now if you'll excuse me I've got some shopping with Forge World Russia to do.

This is starting to become less and less about the boxset itself and more about what is and isn't part of the imperial guard range...

To be fair, there isn't much else to say about the boxset. Nice enough models being released as GW makes a huge amount of incredibly stupid decisions alongside it.

Stealing this, thank you very much. 

 

(Will not reuse it on B&C - what you get from me on this forum are only the freshest, most unique jokes as everyone knows. No promises about Facebook though. :ph34r:)

That would be my thinking also but doesn't really jive with the way flyers in general have been treated in 10th edition. 

I really can’t explain why they’d release this box and then nerf every unit in it, heavily. All of them now seem clearly worse than existing options, like the existing ordnance batteries and Attilans. 
 

the one unit that maybe comes out vaguely ok is 1 engineers. They barely charge you anything for the second five, but maybe that’s because they don’t really do anything.

To be fair, Sometimes a topic runs it's course, you start a new topic focused on the new divergent topic.

To be fair it more became about that actual codex and rules / points than the boxset ages ago 

To be fair (oh I see what you did there), I have tried to politely tell people to stay on topic.

Telling me or any other Mod for that matter that there is nothing else to talk about, or that since X time interval the topic has strayed doesn't change the above suggestion to stay on topic and not continue to diverge or devolve into other topics which are perfectly fine on their own, in their own thread. I should have just used my Mod voice earlier but didn't think that was necessary. I see that it is.

 

=][=  This thread is about the Krieg Box set. As the title suggests. It isn't about arguing with the Mods, or about what units are now legends or don't exist at all, or taking shots at one another, or complaining about the rules, or changes and so on. Moderator Firedrake Cordova asked earlier and I have now asked twice to stay on topic. Thank you. =][=
