Very, very nice model. Not hugely impressed with the rules though, surely something that big should have more than AV12 11 11?

The creators of Warmachine? :D Looks awfully similar to this warjack. Just sayin'. That being said, it looks AWESOME and would make for a great Iron Warriors daemon prince.

I'm probably in the minority, but I'm not sold. I'll agree with an earlier sentiment: it looks too much like a Warjack from Warmachine. Now, I've never played it, never bought a model, etc., but I still see the ads for them on BOLS and such. There's just not enough that says 'Chaos'. Claws and spikes? Meh, okay. Arrows in the filigree? Sure, fine. But the silhouette of the thing, topped off with the faceplate that looks something like an odd cross between a Spartan (300, not Halo) helmet and the face of that thing from Jeepers Creepers, just does not do it for me.

Less shoulder, more violence. I'd want to see a lot more weapons on this thing for me to feel threatened by it.

This just made my day :)

*Edit*

After reading its rules, i get the Feeling that a Nurgle one of these could be pretty hard to kill? Ignores shaken/stunned, a re-roll able 5+ against weapon destroyed and immobilised results and a re-roll on making it stand up again, or atleast keeping it on the field for another turn? along with flaming infantry in buildings/transports and the butcher cannon? quite beastly....

Given the weird and wonderful machines in the Gaunt's Ghosts series, I was expecting something a little more... Chaos-y (stalk tanks, crab tanks, wirewolves and those ball thingies spring to mind). I'm a little underwhelmed, tbh. That said, I'm sure it's a neat contemporary to the Contemptor and the forearms look like they might be compatable, so that's a bonus.

Edit -Typo.

Ghm. Warjacks arrive to WH40K?

It's a pretty slick piece, but too similar to Warmachine for my tastes.

There is no hope, and each passing day merely prolongs the suffering.

I was initially like :D when I saw it, but I have to say I'm not too sure anymore.

I think the rules that we've seen between this and the Chaos Contemptor's may indeed be a glimpse into the new rules for Chaos Legions and I have to say, I'm glad I'm building an all-Nurgle army right now! This thing is a beast if marked with Nurgle..

I'm not entirely sold on the model now, though. I'm hoping to attend the 40k Doubles tournament next September in Warhammer World, so I think I may see about having a nosey at this guy while I'm there. Seeing it in the flesh might help me decide... and then in that case, I'll be leaving with him and a Contemptor.

As for how to run him... I'd be tempted to leave him with those evil looking talons. Rules wise, they seem pretty damn good... imagine what would happen to a Tactical squad inside a Rhino that this guy tears into with two flamer attacks going inside??


LOL, after looking at it again after writing my earlier post, I was suddenly struck by how much he looks like an Epic 40,000 scale Titan.

Yeah, but can you picture the amount of downrange firepower you could have with two Butcher Cannons with this thing? Especially with the 5+ save to help mitigate weapon destroyed results. 8 shots is 8 shots man...

Personally, I think it looks awesome. It's about time Chaos got some love... IMO they're the real ultimate bad guy of 40k.. the battle is really between humanity and itself, the Emperor's Soul, reality versus the warp. Chaos should FEEL like it's the bad guy...

It looks like the warjack, in that it's a bipedal machine. In all other regards it looks nothing like the warjack.

Except you know, it looks a thousand times better.

Man damn forgeworld, I'm really feeling tempted here. (not so with the contemptor)

I don't even play Chaos but I might have to own one of these.

I suppose that it looks kind of similar to a warjack but my first reaction was that it was a mini titan.

Yes I do see an Epic Emperor Titan in the way it looks. Other than the legs. Its got Sentinel legs.
For you that like Dark Eldar aswell as Space Marines.

Chronus in a Land Raider just screams "SHOOT ME!", and it's stupid hard to kill. Chronus in a super hard to kill Land Raider with a huge cannon on the front is like stabbing your opponent in the eye with psychological warfare. It's like they pretty much CAN'T ignore it.

Well it looks like we can convert people to the Loyalist side without trying. See other Chaos players! You are just practice. :P

I hate the legs, I hate the bland look, it's just boring. Gimme more god-based and legion-based conversions for the Contemptor and I'm happy.

This is far and away the best thing to come out of FW since...well the last best thing to come out of FW. It looks utterly awesome, the Gladiator style helm is badass and the experimental rules look great. Tzeentch marked with dual storm lasers looks fun, as does butcher cannon and claw with mark of Khorne. Then stick it in a dreadclaw or maybe put three in three dreadclaws and drop them right on the enemy positions!
