m0nolith Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I wouldn't mind if FW milks its HH black book series for every drop it's worth... Just cuz BL is starting the Siege, doesn't mean FW must follow suit, or does it? I agree, but I think the only difference between the Heresy book series and the Siege book series are semantics. Its the same series, the name change has more to do with BL marketing than anything. When FW gets to the Siege, 10 years from now :D , its going to be called the Horus Heresy because, well...that's what the game is called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackalwolf Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Dang I was hoping the keshig would be Tartaros since they'd translate well converted to SW as the Varagyr can convert easy to keshig replacing pelts with tabards and green stuffing runes.

Dantay VI Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Didn't realize Wolves were no longer getting covered. That's a shame! Hopefully we'll see Deathsworn soon... It is a shame, however we have gotten Infernal. Therefore cannot be too greedy. Will be nice to see more legions added via Malevolence & some armies need updates/ missing models more than the Wolves. Wolves might come around in the DA book and we could see Wolfsbane and Uarant scenarios. Uarant sees a lot of legions converge to kill off the Wolves (SoH AL plus other traitors) and Raven Guard with some shattered legions mixed in. Would make a very good general update book for multiple legions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taliesin Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Just to add here, spoke to FW staff at last week at Warhammerfest in Germany. One of them has received a copy of HH Malevolence for review very recently and after that sort of final proofing is done, it goes to the printers, which he estimated would take 4 months. So in movie terms, this book is in post-production. EVen though they have maintained throughout that they wanted to get this book out in 2018, he estimated it would probably come out very early next year. I keep hoping for December myself, but possibly January or the HH Weekender. I am surprised to hear that about the Space Wolves, they were clearly mentioned as being in just a few months ago. Shame if that is the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Loss Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 I wonder if the release of the Titanicus black book (about the Titandeath, which is also due Q1 next year) around that time will result in one or the other being delayed, seeing as Malevolence won't make Christmas.

Charlo Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 I think it's foolish to think a book will be released at any time other than the Weekender these days. It's just the perfect time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taliesin Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 The Titandeath/Beta Garmon book will come out in January, as per Andy in the seminar last week. And he would know. Malevolence did not have a date but it seems likely that this will come out at the Weekender , I agree. I want it sooner, but that doesn't make it so unfortunately :) BTW I listened to that Age of Darkness podcast and Pendraigg isn't really sure on the Space Wolves, he says they will still be mentioned in the narrative but no rules.

Taliesin Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 The one in February 2019. It's always held in Feb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1soul Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Ah, I got it mixed up with the "Warhammer Fest Europe Weekend"...my bad Yeah, I do recall now that Feb. should be the month of the HH Weekender. I am just surprised we might get a release in Jan. and then another release in Feb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Sheol Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 yes... i think malevolence will be out at weekender 2019 and the DA book at weekender 2021/2022 (i dont think it will be just one year after Malevolence but 2 or 3 considering how slow FW is nowadays) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lokkorex Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 One could hope the heresy gets more manpower as necromunda loses steam, but "hope is the first step to disappointment" and all that.

I am just surprised we might get a release in Jan. and then another release in Feb. I think this is because it is from different teams. The Beta Garmon book ( Titandeath) was written by Andy Hoare and I believe the other writer is Owen Barnes, they are from the Specialist Games branch. Malevolence is written by the team that used to be the great Alan Bligh's team, so Neil ( who was always co-writing Black Books with Alan) and Anuj, who is new.

I think that's true now that Andy Hoare has been promoted to manager of some sort, but he's written a lot for the 30k black books over the years. Autek Mor's story on Bodt is the only one I know of for sure, but he's been doing it since at least book 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
