Forge World Horus Heresy Expansion

[Vladimir the bloody]

Of the 4 primarchs from "betrayal" I really want to see Horus and Mortarion.

 

[Elzanith]

Mortarion FTW! Giant scythe + Teleport Shadow power? Yes please.

 

[Sanai]

How could anyone not want?

 

[spineyrequiem]

TBH, they're all going to look pretty awesome, probably. I'm looking forward to Mortarion personally, not least because I think masks are cool. Also scythes.

 

[Chaos_Born]

I'm not looking forward to any of them in particular, but I'm most intrigued about Alpharius and how they'll do Omegon. Same kit? No separate model, so they look completely identical?

 

[El Syf]

Question is would you feel conned if you had to pay £100 for them two models that are exactly the same? (as angron was £50 I assume they'll double it for two) ANd how will you tell who's who in game?:lol:

 

[Mello]

£50 for angorn. wHAAAA:|

Omegon wears slightly blacker armour if I remember correctly.

 

[El Syf]

Yeah and Omegon had his other other suit that was just plain ceramite. I was originally planning on buying all the primarch models but then did the maths, providing they don't release more then one version of each it would cost £900 to have all 18. And then there's the Emperor...
But in response to the question I'm waiting on Konrad's mini

Ahaha, that'd be brilliant. Only GW could do something like that...

Or worse still, as they're supposed to look like ordinary marines, sell this set for £100 and minus the third guy: http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat440167a&prodId=prod1400021&rootCatGameStyle=

 

[Sanai]

Oh now thats being just a bit pessimistic isn't it?

 

[Mello]

that's so GW! Or they'll make one miniature symmetrically opposite to the other and call them completely different XD

*cough* Tau Honour Guard *cough*

 

[Mello]

yeah yeah I know

nearly as bad as tau boogie dancer ethereal

Hmm do you think they'll cook up some new super units as well? Thinking of Matt ward, probably something like this:

 

[Johnny-Crass]

New jetbikes up

to lazy to make a joke about phallic bikes being 'up'

 

[Zanos]

40K is already full of homoerotic subtexts, what with the large muscular men fighting elves with phallic helmets...you don't have to even try Johnny.

 

[Mello]

hell you've still got the spandex laden Deldar, and a god dedicated to sex.

I swear they look like giant plasma guns, I wasn't even thinking phallic..

 

[Sanai]

Are they phallic, or is the phallus in the mind of the beholder?.........

I miss the old tyranids that had crotch mouths....

 

[Vladimir the bloody]

They are really taking their time with the other 3 primarchs, eh?
Oh and I know, since the council of Nikae, that the chaplains were created, but did they wear the same black armour and skull helmets as in they do afte the emperors ascending?

 

[the hidden one]

Any one see the new battalion type things up on forge world? sets of thirty tacticals, and twenty terminators. Along with the new weapons and stuff. Expensive, but the only way of making a lot of the pre-heresy stuff come right away!

 

[El Syf]

That's a good move I reckon. And they have a dreadnought talon up too. Just need book 2 to come out and fw to accept dodgey checks!

"What do you mean, FW doesn't accept cheques from "The Roiyal Famly"? Haven't you heard of the Quin?"

EDIT: Christ those are some expensive sets. The 20-Terminator one is highly tempting, though; they could be used as GK Termies in 40k, and Pride of the legion Troops in 30k... and they look so shiny...

 

[Vladimir the bloody]

I really liked the look of the squads but I damn near got a heart attack when I saw it was nearly 200€, thats too damn much. I was going for a collection HH army anyways...

 

[Duke Danse Macabre]

It saves you a few quid like that and you have to remember in 30k you can get 20 man marine squads.

I fully intend to get a army when they get Sanguinus Done.

 

[Vladimir the bloody]

Its saves a few € yeah, but being a student with no job and currently paying for a drivers license, its a pain in the neck.

Why not build up your forces in the meantime? Then Sanguinius will have an army of Blood Angels to command, rather than bags of sprues.
