It's a nice figure. Though it's another one of those GW figures that I always think would look better if its other foot was on the pipe/rock/dead marine. C'mon, the Greeks worked this shit out thousands of years ago.

Well, at least they remembered that you simply HAVE to have a skull or two on the subject somewhere....

I just noticed he has a cigar and now I really want it. Also waiting for Peta to see this and try to figure out if this is a step in the right direction or not....

Looks good, but without reading the article I assume it's resin/Forgeworld and thus I'm out.  Shame really.

[AWu]

Painted


Yes
FW and resin.

If nothing else I like the fact that beastmen sub-humans are still a thing in 40k

I agree with you there.
 

[AWu]

All bulkhead types around


And two of the new ones stacked close to Sector mechanicus .

It looks really nice painted.
Plus the forgeworld team tend to paint things a little nicer than the GW team in my opinion.

[Mason]

Those pictures of the new bulkheads are very useful, thank you.
 

I think I shall see how much they are going for when the bits sellers start on ebay, as I can see a use for them.

GW is selling this set (its 2 copies of a bulkhead frame you get with the starter box

Around 20 pounds
Dor have two options of opening mechanism - knob pictured here and large bar like one. Really cool.

And at similar price again 2 sprues of scatter terrain you get in the starter

[stone-cold-lead]

GW putting up most of the box contents separately from the get go is a nice fuck you to the Ebay bits sellers. Making the gangs available is just common sense but the terrain as well really surprised me when I saw it in WD.

[Mason]

That has surprised me too!
 

Thanks for the tip-off, AWu.
That is great news as I have no interest in the figures as they are just too big, but the scenery on the other hand....
I shall be getting some of them.

I picked up the dark millenum playing cards the other day to go with my copy of voodoo forest.
They're very nice, lovely art work, plenty of characters to inspire conversions.
(This isn't helping with my accidental playing card collection. I have 12 decks that i never use that i have picked up purely because they were pretty.)

[AWu]

I  managed to snag some measurements. Might be of interest to some.




I am going to make me some walls..
BTW: Walls not only will add visually to the game but measuring anything beyond 12 inches and deciding if there is open loss or cover or no-loss is quite difficulty without them.

The 3d doors and cover loos strange withoud proper walls in the palce of walls.


We tried short game yesterday.
Rules are IMHO step in the good way but there are some annoyances (ex: sustained fire/ jam die is counterintuitive. It jams on one side only and show number of hits that are non applicable for most of the weapons. It would be cool and easier to grasp  to have one empty die with  just on one side jam result.
