Nanite Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 Mine just ogt over chewing. She made cardboard into confetti. So those Battle for Macragge boexes have appreciated: http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/...odId=prod80001a And anyone know the point of the new Leman Russ upgrade sprue? It just looks like another normal hull and turret? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damn Lucky Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Mine just ogt over chewing. She made cardboard into confetti. So those Battle for Macragge boexes have appreciated: http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/...odId=prod80001a And anyone know the point of the new Leman Russ upgrade sprue? It just looks like another normal hull and turret? It's the Current/old Leman Russ upper hull sprue. It's out for two reasons: 1st: The New Russ is not coming out for some time. If you want to get a russ with the updated look/new turret style you can buy the new demolisher kit and that sprue for a battle cannon. O____o Yah. Pricey would be a understatement. (I.E. The 3rd guard wave is coming End of yet being of next year. And it's the Mantiecore, Hydra and Plastic Storm Troopers. New Main Battle Tank is still not on any radars.) 2nd: There is a Stagem in planet strike that lets you put a Battle Cannon turret on one of your bastions. The sprue is for the Battle Cannon and Turret for the Stategem. I'm prety sure the sprue is being sold for the latter. =U Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erion Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Yeah, I heard the crashed shuttle was coming out as terrain and chuckled, since I have two painted and one still on the sprue from the days of Macragge starter boxes. To be honest, I was surprised we didn't see it sooner. It's nice terrain. Also, we rearranged the furniture in the basement this weekend, and fount a confetti-ized set of lego instructions behind one of the DVD storage cabinets. I chose to blame the cat.

robertsjf Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Which chapters will out the Ninja, Pirate, and Monkey angles to satisfy all things nerd. Oh and there probably should be a space marine chapter with boobs. Just saying, it would maximise sales to their target demographic. Raven Guard=Ninja I would argue that Vikings are a form of pirate..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisler Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I would actually argue that Vikings are not a type of pirate. Raiders yes, Pirates no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lars Porsenna Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 In old English, Viking (or Wicing) is a term used specifically for "pirate" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viking After all, what exactly defines a pirate (eyepatches, parrots and peglegs aside)? Damon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damon. Aaaargh! Oh and I got my Blastscape. Every bit as crap as people were saying, although my set seems as sturdy as the moonscape. I'm taking it as a personal challenge to make them look beautiful, I expect failure. Also got the Imperial Advisors though, wich are some of the finest minis I've seen from Citadel. Highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erion Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Red Corsairs = Pirates. Sure, they're officially in the Chaos Codex, but there's no reason you couldn't build a red corsairs force using the Imperial Space Marines rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erion Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Does anyone else find it odd that there are only two products on Advance Order on the GW website right now for all of their game systems? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sethohman Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Does anyone else find it odd that there are only two products on Advance Order on the GW website right now for all of their game systems? And 1 is terrain and the other is a re-packing of a fantasy product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And 1 is terrain and the other is a re-packing of a fantasy product. To be fair, there are at least some new tiles in the Planetary Empires kit, but for the most part I agree with you. I've heard that Space Wolves aren't due until October. That leaves something like 6-8 weeks of no new releases and no new hype. Very Un-GW.

Whatya think they're doing when they're seeking adventure? Point is, the word means pirate to certain germanophones, so from their perspective, certainly they were pirates... Damon.

vejlin Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 (edited) running amok with TOTAL VIKING POWER!!! takes a lot of energy. here's everything you need to know about vikings and TOTAL VIKING POWER!!!: http://www.viking.virkelighed.dk/ Sadly it's only in danish, perhaps one of the online translators will help with that. There's a very entertaining ranking of the vinkings' enemies. Edited August 10, 2009 by vejlin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
