We live in the End of Times, Besieged from every direction, and Our Existence is on the brink of Annihilation. Mankind has reached its boiling point, but Fear Not, Faeit is at hand, and it is I who shall uncover the secrets of our deliverance.
I'm looking forward to getting a few of the Ork Bommas and Space Marine Stormtalons for apoc.
ReplyDeleteOrk Bomma's going on my wish list for sure.
ReplyDeleteSo how about a chaos flyer? Dreed claw or a chaos storm raven? Drop pod? Nothing?
ReplyDeleteWith the Chaos codex being so close, I would assume that they would wait until then.
DeleteAgreed. No sense in adding anything to a 4th edition Codex that sucks when a new Codex is just a few months away.
DeleteSo, pretty much as expected? Probably will cost somewhere around €39 over here.
ReplyDeleteIt is curious to see GW putting their faith into the big kits as of late, yet 6th ed rumors threatening the viablity of vehicles. I am missing a crucial detail here, otherwise this just does not gel.
...though I must admit, I am kind of hyped for the stormtalon. My stormeagle could use some wingmen.
Yeah, let's release lots of expensive flyers, so people buy lots of them, then nerf vehicles afterwards, so people go out and buy more infantry. I really hope I've got this wrong, because that just seems too cynical even to me. On the other hand, maybe flyers will be the only awesome type of vehicle in 6th edition.
DeleteWho knows? I don't really care at the moment because they haven't made a plastic Dreadclaw. :(
I suspected pretty much the same thing you did, but the window of opportunity is too small to gain any economical advantage out of it, considering this release and 6th ed. are, at most, two months apart.
DeleteWell, we'll see. *shrugs*
Ohh, but instead of a dreadclaw or a helltalon Chaos will get a mechanical DRAGON! Isn't that AMAZING? A DRAGON! Can you tell how EXCITED I am from all the CAPS?! A DRAGON! The EPITOME of CHAOS!
In all seriousness though, a plastic dreadclaw (that doesn't require you to sell a kidney to afford) would be quite welcome.
Why just two WFB releases? :/ if anything, WFB orc players need that plastic multi-part kit for a wyvern.
ReplyDelete...! I think Fantasy has had quite enough stuff for now! This is supposed to be the year of 40k FFS!
DeleteRight, now I'm calm I'll point out that Fantasy has had two army book releases this year, and a few random models. 40k has had the necron second wave, and a nids and space wolves release so far. I think it is a little unjustified to complain about fantasy not getting anything else when you consider that this is 40k's 25th anniversary, and all we got was a limited edition model.
When you consider that WFB has had two army books already, compared to 40k's zero codices, you might understand why I can get a little annoyed about this sort of thing. Just my view on the matter.
Anyway, on a slightly different note, greater demons need an update more than the wyvern.
*scratches back of head skeptically*
ReplyDeleteSorry, competitive SK likes to comment more than "OOOH PRETTY" SK.
so... what are they going to do about the rules for the stormtalon? WD them for now?
pleaaase let it be for chaos too... though I doubt it.
also, that thing looks totally over-the-top. "Lets see, how many guns can we put on how small a platform?"
DeleteIt does look quite OTT, I'll admit. Annoyingly, I get the feeling it'll only be for loyalists, so we'll have to wait for our codex and the mechanical dragon to get a plastic flyer. Meh. I just hope flyers don't end up game-breaking.
DeleteHahaha
DeleteYou have to admit it is in the Imperial look to see how many guns you can stick on your vehicles, although it is even more orkish.
Expensive and silly looking, pass.
ReplyDeleteI swear people bitch about anything, I'm just glad 40K finally gets some flyers!
ReplyDeleteSo that's all were gonna see from June? Damn 50 for a necron scythe kills me spam lists! Eh ill still get 3
ReplyDeleteThere is also a huge upcoming finecast relaunch for fantasy on the 16th with models for tomb kings, dark elfs, orcs & goblins, and lizardmen that will be ATO(available to order)
ReplyDeletewhere did the prices come from?
