Fuck. Guess I'm giving GW a wad of cash soon. (Actually don't love all the minis as such, but the conversion potential of those gangers and the Blackstone stuff is amazing).

They are releasing two books as well. No GW5 by the looks of it.

One book with all of the gang lists and rules in it and a new rulebook with, I assume, all of the 3d rules and campaign rules in it.

Suffice to say I am glad I chose to play Chaos Cultists due to suspecting this sneaky underhand tactic might be on the cards!

That was predictable. I guess two books similar to Middle Earth books.

Gang Wars were a mess.. Stop gap measure, but some people could feel pissed off.


I will buy new books gladly.  Ive been playingBig Book for 1st edition for the last 20 years so I will get the playtime from the new books. And Ive got already from Gang Wars.
What pisses me slightly is waste of resources with them.

Doesn't look like a lot of bang for your buck does it?

There is a better pic on Warhammer Community now - looks like close to 40 miniatures in the box, if I am counting correctly. (I am a little drunk th noo, so may not be counting correctly).

Not keen on the Delaque's to be honest but damn the BSF box looks amazing. Need me those Traitor Guard, Rogue Psyker and Beastmen :D

I wonder if Santa will bring me a box ;)

Haven’t seen the 40k beastmen - where are the preview pics?

40 miniatures and as a WHQ-game we can expect a quest of 10 or so so yes, plenty of hours playtime. Not dead cheap but good value for money I'd say. And those Delaques, excellent. If we hadn't a Necromuna campaign next weekend I'd chosen these as base models for my Chaos Cult gang instead of the 5 plastic plug & pray-ones + bitz thingies  :?

32 seconds on the Black Fortress video looks like a beastman on the right. Looks fun. I'll be grabbing some bits I hope.

Torn by the new Delaque... They have a much better 'grimdark' feel than the old models (and could make excellent cultists) but for all that I am not sold on some of the poses

In their own right these are nice minis but they lack the dynamism I'd expect from Delaque minis. They look more like some kind of bureaucrats or something...well except for all the guns.

Daleque miniatures were hardly very dynamic.
They are silent shadowy spies in trenchcoats not matrix ninjas.
