A money grab to me would be just releasing it for wide format screens and modern chips. + They've gone into the base code to fix community related issues, improving quality of life play mechanics. - The graphical improvements will be a wash for new players, they never played they old diffuse only textures. + Having it all in one game is going to be nice, not like 5 DVD's. If you've not played it before, and you like 40k, it's definitely worth it. I'm biased as I worked on half a dozen mods.

I own an the way up to Soulstorm for DOW 1. I'll be buying it tomorrow, full price, with joy. The work they've done has earned every dollar. I poured a lot of love and hard work into that game through the mod community. To be able to play "Dawn of Steel" and "Inquisition Daemonhunt", in wide screen, after all these years is literally a dream come true.

I just got out of the store, where I saw a DreadKnight cosplaying as a young mother. Seriously, it's a difficult design nut to crack. The Sisters warsuits are close, Shadowsun is rocking Waldo arms like a Shirow Landmate, and she's close. They just don't have it yet.

Do you know if Thudmizer is involved? That man was crazy committed. He carried DoW modding on his back , community engagement, programming the whole 9 yards. Man's a legend.

Oh man. I'm looking forward to non 4x3 aspect ratio, and legacy mod support. I remember when the team and I played Daemonhunt vs the Relic devs, so much fun. Buggo and the crew. Getting that and Steel Legion running will be aces. It also looks like they are adding specular maps to more units, they were added too Necrons but no other race sorted them.

Could the Birdbots be a one off sculpt? As I understand the team design and make minis, then eventually the rules guys make rules for them. These were likely not developed to supplement TS and fill a hole, rather someone made a "cool" mini and we happened get rules for it. Do we know who designed and sculpted them?

Could go either way. Having different weapons isn't enough to split a profile. Tyranid Warriors have three different melee weapons on the models, all use a unified profile. GSC Aberrants have giant power hammers and dual power picks, use a unified profile.

There is no supported way to play Noise Marines in a regular chaos army? Like we can slot in a unit of Plague Marines or Khorne Berserkers. I'd love a couple squads for flavor, but not a whole army.

This entire range is the visual re-design work of Mikhail Savier. Hiring him was a smart move.

I don't need them to design a new one, I need to get around to buying one. I'm old in collecting. I have not bought the new brood Lord yet, I have the metal one, which dates me a bit.

Can confirm, the new stealers are significantly better and more interesting than the older sculpts. They come 10 models to a pack. Now all I need is a new brood Lord to go with them.

For those of us that missed out on these more unique buildings, this is the only way to get the statue bits correct? The Sanctum and Basilicanum are not buildable from any other kits. The prices for these two are not great, but far better than I thought they would be.

That these are not the default terrain we all buy is criminal. I didn't care what the "reason" was, this is the standard. Making the floors lower and covering the windows did not improve the later generation that replaced these masterpieces. I was, and still am, pissed to have missed them when they first released 6 years ago. The eBay mark up is crazy. I'm sure the made to order will still be beyond what I can afford. To any that get them, congrats please use the hell out of them!

As a design junky the helmet compressing onto the wearer instead of just slipping on, so good. I'm here for this!

Missed the death corp, but these Elder look amazing.
