Couple of very small bits from me,

They are starting work on the 'SM assault lander' from tomorrow - from the mock up onwards. I can reaffirm it is in addition to the GW lander.

The grot tanks are all interchangable, turrets, tracks etc and they had designed a ton of ork stuff (vehicles) that they couldn't fit into IA8 which *may* be released in the near future. Apparently some stuff (like the grot tanks) was only finished last week and will therefore not have artwork (but will have rules) in IA8

Will Hayes mentioned that he had conversed with Jes regarding the Phantom to get his input as it was Jes that designed the original epic model. It will be much more dynamic in stance upon final release with poseable joints designed to give a 'fluid' motion.

Hi all. I know it's not de related but whilst I'm waiting for the fw seminar thought I post what I chatted to will Hayes and Warwick about IA11. In addition to the vehicles seen there will be new aspect warriors but this will be addressed in the seminar. Warwick did say that they are looking at doing cadian upgrade kits for winter fighting ( boots, gloves, face protection and googles) and also tank upgrade kits (air intakes, snow ploughs etc) These will be to go with the plastic cadian kits but he did say that vahallens may be looked at in the future in the same way as elysians. One last think is that the space wolves will be a whole great company. He wouldn't say which one but did confirm the lord was going to be modelled and ruled out a couple. It was hinted that it may be a mounted model..... The deathwolf perhaps

Sorry for the spelling. Struggling to type on phone. More later from seminar and other chats

3 versions of the phantom Titan likely with warlock to follow. Will said d cannon, and close combat as seem in the build, as well as tremor cannon, sonic lance and a fist ( I think). He said the warlock would depend on how much extra time it took to do. He is lined up for more eldar stuff after the Titan, which will be Available for Xmas.

Warwick gave me anrin through of the IA 11 story which I can post when I'm back home.

Will couldn't confirm any plans for additional super heavy elder

**Fraggle** · 26-09-2010, 10:38

No great coats for cadians as would be essentially a whole model rather than an upgrade. Having said that the guard part of IA11 is not a preconcept stage yet, just ideas. Warwick did say most big ideas like skidoos and snow CAT style vehicles would have to be part of a big vahallen project at a later date. Just to avoid confusion this is not a confirmation of vahallens!

They are also looking at pre-heresy in the form of 30k but this is a long way down the line if ever

**Fraggle** · 26-09-2010, 10:43

IA10 hopefully before Xmas and IA11 around march. More on aspects after the seminar which starts in 20mins. I will report back. Eldar small skimmers may have interchangeable turrets by the look of it.

Just out of seminar. Little bits a pieces. Best is new aspect warriors call shadow spectres. Have jump packs and mini fire prism like weapons which can combine

**Fraggle** · 26-09-2010, 11:52

Lots of new dreds to come, older ironclad and some preheresy style one. Elysians included in IA11. Space wolf kits will fill gaps in gw line but didn't really confirm thunder wolves. Little given away on sw ingeneral.

Hi just got in.

Will try and split up info into smaller posts.

Shadow spectres - have JETpacks rather than jump packs. Similar to Tau use. The wepon is a mini prism which would combine and be anti-vehicle. They are supposed to reflect the spirits of the dead in their appearance, hence the floating.

Was also talk of a JETpack close combat aspect, but think that was the other option which wasn't taken.

Hornet - twin linked. comes with resin pulsars but can use any of the normal heavy weapons. Pulsars will be expensive.

Cosairs - book puts some focus on raids by corsairs and rangers. Upgrade kit likely (helms, weapons etc).

Exodites - none in IA11. Left until a later date as would need large model set. (please not this is not confirmation just that its out there as a concept)

Jetseers - spoke to the guys about possibilty of an upgrade kit at some point. They said they hadn't really considered it but would look at it again as its an obvious hole in the range.

More in a bit
