More pictures of the stormcasts and undead.

The stormcasts are actually gorgeous. These are so dynamic, they really look liek they're in the middle of a fight. The war machine and engineers look really cool, very masters of the universe in a good way.
I can see myself restarting my stormcast project....

This popped up on my twitter, colour me surpised if real.

Titanicus is actually looking interesting although I'd hope for more representation than just Imperium and evil Imperium.

That is a real if alternate manufacturer made mini.

The original started out like that and expanded, I guess it really depends how successful the initial release is to how much gets added.

Here's hoping then, I guess. Worst case, I can still see the terrain being useful.

Kinda relieved, also tbh the new SoB while detailed is just off for me.

I do wonder if this might damage the overheads of smaller companies like vanuard, that have done a wonderful job filling the gap left by epic. Those GW modular titanicus buildings look amazing , and seem like they are poised to kick the legs from under vanguards own range of plastic epic scale scenery.

The terrain isn't going to be 6mm scale so it will look wildly out of scale next to Epic figs. I doubt they have anything to worry about

That IS pretty cheap for an espresso.

I am officially now not buying anything until August

The Warlord Titan appears to be a similar size to a 40K Knight and is reported to have as many pieces. If that is true then I am retracting my earlier statement as there will be no way I can afford the game

That is both awesome and dissappointing at the same time.
I can just imagine how awesome a game of this will look like.
But yes, I would never get into a game that expensive.

Hmm.. maybe just use the warlord as imperial knights in 40k and  kill two birds in one stone.

[majorsmith]

I don’t think the titans are that big 

[Vanvlak]

Those are knights, but according to sources twice removed they're a quarter of the size of the 40k counterparts.

[pixelgeek]

The Warlords are 3x the size of the AT Knight models and are, by my estimate, more complex than the 40K Knight kits.

Not saying that they are going to be comparably priced but I am prepping myself for some serious sticker shock

[Dr. Zombie]

They look really great and my nostalgic heart really want them. But I am afraid that when I see the pricetag my enthusiasm will be somewhat lessened.

I don't know, I have a feeling it will be the one box and that will be it. It'll probably go the way other games have gone - like Dreadfleet and Space Hulk. There will be some new people that buy it to check it out. There will be some people that loved AT back in the day, but sold off all their stuff ages ago and will buy back in with this. And then there are all the people who still have a tonne of epic stuff that would LOVE to buy into a new game if it were compatible... but won't buy this because they already have a tonne of epic stuff that will be completely incompatible with this... They'll keep playing with what they've got and buying stuff from places like Vanguard.

All that being said, it seems Blood Bowl and Necromunda are doing okay, so... maybe I have no idea what I'm talking about.

As pretty as they look I probably won't be buying into it as I have a tonne of Epic stuff already... Totally would have bought MORE from GW if they'd rereleased it in a similar scale.
