Marshal Loss

I've kept rewatching the Land Raider clip, it's just so damn cool. So glad to see iconic tracked vehicles in the game!

Most exciting Warhammer game related announcement of all time for me. Really hope Chaos make an appearance at launch, but either way, I am going to need a proper computer & some time off for this... edit: no Chaos at launch apparently, that sucks. Hopefully won't be waiting years for some kind of CSM to appear. Looks absolutely fabulous

Phenomenal news, both because the Defiler is iconic and badly needs a new kit, and because the EC roster can barely cover a piece of toast so any additions will be very much appreciated. Legion/god specific bits in the kit would be a great move.

The 10 Jan date for release is correct but it won't be up for preorder this weekend for us, there's no chance they randomly drop the box without the usual fanfare on WHC; this is just for retailers IIRC. Price is 170€

Not shabby though a bit hard to judge with the balance dataslate literally around the corner. Exalted Patron allowing a Lord Exultant to join Flawless Blades is a great interim option while we wait for a Flawless Blade character down the road and Close-Quarters Excruciation will help Noise Marines push through more damage on tougher targets from time to time. Looks like fun and I'll give it a crack. I'd have really preferred Fulgrim getting the ability to ignore terrain innately (even if with the once per round restriction), it will remain a huge problem for him in other detachments, but we'll see what he's like after the balance pass.

What about those of us where our accounts are over 16 years old... Tricky situation, don't envy the administrators the task of navigating around it, and I hope a solution can be found. I don't have kids but B&C's moderating is easily the best of any forum I've ever used - and I've used many over the years. But as much as I love the site, if the requirement was to supply official ID, I'd stop using it.

Pleased to hear EC are effectively confirmed to be getting a detachment. Based off the name & rumours floating around of a stratagem that will let snake daddy go through walls, Court is probably intended to alleviate Fulgrim's issues. Hopefully it doesn't lead to a scenario where Fulgrim is great in this one detachment and bang average in all of the others. Sad it's not going to be a Noise Marine themed one though. I get they want the cult legions to have very specific themes, and this iteration of the EC have an intense and crippling phobia of long-ranged firepower so I suspect they don't want a 'shooty' detachment, but the sonic theme is just too cool not to play up. Maybe one day when we (hopefully) get more units. Personally I'd like him to do a bit more damage, but I think the 'Fulgrim is bad' wisdom largely comes from the competitive scene as his 130mm base means he's flat out unable to navigate key paths on most prescribed terrain layouts. Personally I think he should just ignore terrain - I mean he's a snake with wings - but I guess we'll see what this detachment and the upcoming rebalance does for him.

Hoping for a Noise Marine detachment for EC, obviously it's been a great year for us but still baffled we didn't receive one in the codex.

Dropsite Massacre for me without a doubt. Absolutely brilliant work from French

Would have preferred unreleased/new colour plates for HH rather than these painting recipes.

Fulgrim for 40k, he's superb. For the 'other category', I was a little on the fence but ended up going for the Saturnine Praetor. It's a great kit with a ton of options, everything I like out of a character.

Pretty funny stuff. Could definitely see a new Guilliman being the Christmas preview, though I'd prefer the speculative WB & UM angle

Give us Erebus in plastic. He'll be the best-selling model they've ever done because everybody will either buy him to use as basing material or to taunt the local smurf player with

The paintjob looks like a perfect match for the 'leaked' box, down to the placement of individual scratches and highlights, so I'm going to say this is a 3D print or conversion or whatever that was used as the basis for the fake.

No notes, these look stunning
