They're FOMO I'm afraid.

Very nice. The apothecary looks fantastic in that scheme. I really like the weathered look you've achieved on your tank hulls, is that stippling?

This is fantastic. Love that we're getting a Xenos mini, and it's always nice to see great Eldar sculpts. I'd pick this for my subscription miniature in a heatbeat if they hadn't made SKELETONS for AoS. (I see a fantasy skeleton, I buy it. Do I paint them? No)

While I'd love to see a ton more books about the Heresy and an embrace of setting over linear plot (which should be possible without frustrating people now that we've finished the Siege of Terra, right? If we had a new Pythos now it wouldn't face the complaint that it was a roadblock to advancing the story of the primarchs) I have to add the caveat that I don't want to see any more inclusions that exist purely to set up stuff in the Era Indomitus. I don't mind continuity between the millennia, but too many links diminish the sense of aeons having passed between them. Anyway, very optimistic about this new novel. French has done some excellent work, and hopefully this will be up there with it.

Insane cover art. Look at those wrecked titans.

I didn't even know about that until someone mentioned it the other day, because I never finished that series. It's totally inconsequential, feels like a twist for the sake of it.

The Solar Aux set is really nice. If these boxes are still around when I come to start my allied detachment, that's what I'll get.

That's awesome. Way cooler than the basic taurox.

Grotsmasha is correct on both counts, at least as far as Death Guard icons are concerned. There's some evidence that the Death Guard continued to use old iconography well into the Heresy though, they don't generally care that much. There's a Praetor model with a Dusk Raider emblem, for example. The Destroyer icon is basically a highly stylised radiation warning.

I came to ask what the lore and art content of the Istvaan journal is like. Sounds like people aren't impressed by it. I really like the idea of the Interdiction Cadre, and I'm probably going to want to kitbash a Master of Descent and maybe an Augur squad at some point, so I guess I should get it, but... hmm.

Yep! I got into it because there's a community effort to make rules for Heresy-era teams, and I really want to play Horus Heresy skirmish games.

I feel like Collins has wanted to write about Space Wolves all along, I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out. I don't find Necrons very interesting personally, but Beer has been impressive enough that I want to check Tomb World out as well.

OPR's Firefight is really cool if you ever want a smaller scale game, too.

Seeing a bunch of swords and wings, pretty useful to me. Red swords especially should be good for 1st Legion.

I like that you can give them all heavy disintegrators. Terrible idea, but very entertaining. I like the idea of mixed special weapons, at least aesthetically. Plasma repeaters are not very good, huh. I still want to figure out a way to prepresent a couple for thematic reasons though.
