Marshal Reinhard

In keeping with the theme though, it should probably be Marneus Calgar and Marneus Calgar on an invader

There's been several posts in this thread now implying you're forced to have him having his foot planted on the ground. You have both options to have him planting his foot on the ground as well as riding with foot on the pedal. Its one of the features of the kit i like most, hence I pointed it out earlier.

A redone rhino would be relevant to my interests. especially if just slightly bigger

Someone else apparently had the same thought: (or well, made primaris sized devestators that are now a desolation squad): Courtesy of this instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/p/Dcb6tm_jXLI/?igsi=bHQ0YzNvcGZzMm0z

It took 9 years. Every argument was made. Every counter was made. Hard to accurately gauge the most prevailing opinions without hard data.

Its your choice wether to paint it in gold

Fair enough, I thought the resident rumour monger had touched on them more recently. I haven't really kept up I would have hoped new basic power armor and terminator models. Of course that'd do nothing to alleviate the concern that their list would be tiny.

Don't we have rumors of new upcoming grey knight?

Tentative yes before anyone corrects me

I just realized, that since any and all devestators are desolation squads now... you could technically swap all guns on the desolation squad with the guns from a devastator kit now, and you'd not even have to explain the proxy.

Kind of want to see break down of how Phobos, Tacticus, Gravis and Terminator armor will be now

Like the wing bling, but the eagle head feels a bit... I mean, it looks like it'll get in the way of the bolters half of the time? Looks like you always have the sword with you, either unsheathed or not, even if you have another melee weapon. I do like that you can have him either riding, with his foot on the pedal, or he's stationary when aiming with his foot on the ground. Overall, his addition was long overdue, and I'm starting to have a lot ideas what other bits I could use here.

Honestly, I was struggling with what to call it. There's always been issues. I just didn't have any with Shogun 2. And then as you say, Rome 2 came. I think its where the longward trend began. TH:WH felt like they were largely riding on the IP, and from what I hear, there's a downward trend between the three titles?

Like, I sympathise completely with not trusting Creative Assembly. They have been on a long downward trajectory. I'd argue their last "good" (or, "problem free", perhaps?) was that shogun 2. Total Warhammer 40.000 feels like a real make or break moment for them. What I don't agree with is that the one captain model is emblematic in any one way of the games potential quality. This information simply cannot be extrapolated from this one model that's showcasing the army painter function, which in itself is higher customization options than is standard for TW games.

We already saw a bunch of different looks for the captain in the reveal trailer as far as I recall. This is one possible look.
