Here's some leaked photos of the new flyers coming soon:







not a fan of the Stormtalon myself, but the Cylon ship looks ace!

Quote from: NickAnd thus the true evil of 'Palmer, Hobbykiller' becomes clear...
At night he prances about like some sort of bearded West Country metalhead pixie, planting pink horrors in peoples' army cases and cackling while chanting his mantra, 'it's double sixes my love, take them off, just take them all off'

:)) When the Emperor first started galvanising the forces of man, and building his legions of super-human warriors to reclaim the stars, he thought long and hard about design aesthetics when it came to their weapons of war.... long and hard...

When asked by the High Magos of Mars whether he wanted them to look beautiful as well as being militarily functional, it is recorded that his response was, after a long pause...., "nah, bollox to it!"

Marines can't even spell pretty let alone understand exactly what it means. I think they all look pretty nifty kits (I'm sure Ol is licking his lips over the robot boomerang), and I'll be taking two of the SM gunships please mate. You've got my stash from the held-over web order, and I'll scrape some coinage together to get a second one. If the rules are as they've been rumoured, I'm thinking the Vanguard Vets might be landing on my painting table very shortly  :thumbsup:
"Sanguinius. It should have been him. He has the vision and strength to take us to victory, and wisdom to rule once victory is won. For all his aloof coolness, he alone has the Emperor's soul in his blood. Each of us carries part of our father - Sanguinius holds it all." Horus

The Talon reminds me of this...



Such an addictive game - loved it!

Dooooo iiiiiit!  :thumbsup:

I'm fighting a similar urge... BSG themed Necrons!

I quite like the Stormtalon myself. It kinda reminds me of an angry little Bumblebee. Whether the rules are any good is the next question...
There is no problem in life that can't be solved with Heroic Killing Blow:
Plague Furnace, Abomination, Hydra, Wyvern, Arachnarok, Engine of the Gods, Zombie Dragon, Vargulf, Hellcannon. To be continued...

If we assume that there are infinite universes, then in at least one of them, I'm banging Emma Watson. Awesome!

Ol - Hold fire on me getting the Talon(s), as there's a rumble that this will be only available to Codex: Space Marines, not the divergent Chapters. Apparently the WD will carry official codex update rules just for them. If so it makes me a sad panda  :bash;m:

Jimbo - rules are allegedly that you can attach it to a unit held in Deep Strike reserve. When the unit arrives, roll for scatter/placement as normal for the initial unit and then you can place the Talon anywhere within 6" of that unit. Supersonic and Aerial Assault special rules also seem likely.

I must admit I thought that too when I read it... but decided not to share it with the group!  :wink;m::

Does the stupid Orky way of spelling things wrongly annoy anyone else?
'Da Boyz' etc hardly makes it any more phonetic, it just sounds like it was written by a moron.
Bommer only has 1 letter changed, I don't know why they bothered - other than to iritate those with spelling OCD such as myself.

That's my rant for the day, enjoy.
