Mine did too. The only problem I had was one off the two big pieces, that create the body, beeing bent. And it is massive metal I had to bend into shape. The gap was 3mm.Originally Posted by 6mmhero
All the other chaos players I talked to had this problem, too.
WOC tactics:
1. March 8''
2. Gateway + Treason
3. Charge
4. Gateway + Treason
5. Throw alot of dice
6... PROFIT!
Same story here. Absolutely no need for pinning of any kind. It did have massive gaps though and one of the barrel pieces was bent, so it took a lot of green stuff and patience to cover everything and hammer it in shape. The only annoying thing for me was that I had to paint the components before gluing them. Anyway I am glad I don't have to buy the finecast one. Don't fancy sending it back a few times to get a replacement with no defects.
It sounds like the 40k release of Chaos is going to be suspiciously close to the Fantasy release of Chaos. In 40k it is rumoured that there are going to be berserkers on juggernauts, what are the odds they would release it as a dual kit for both systems with an option for Chaos Warrior riders as well seeing as their release dates are going to be relatively close?
What a horrible night to have a curse.
That's very possible and an interesting observation.
I always thought if they was a reason for them coming out close, it would be because of the new apparent Nurgle Daemons. I can't see it happening like that though with the juggers, the only models to my knowledge that have been Fantasy and 40K crossed are the Daemons.
Plus with all fantasy cav, riders get two choice of weapons and then command items as well. On top of all other options of 40K in the same box and then the two different bodies to distinguish between Fantasy and 40K, never going to happen. People would make a killing selling the bits they don't need on ebay and given for GW policy to milk us for every penny they can. I can bet an internet cookie that they will be in seperate boxes, plus I can hardly see them splitting paint jobs since 40K juggers are black and Fantasy ones are red on the box art with all the different models shown as well.
I could be wrong, but everyone betting against me better have a cookie waiting.
Might want to look back a few pagesI believe dark general mentioned that the beserkers on juggers would have a fantasy equivalent
It doesn't have to be a combined box with a 40K and WFB rider, it could be a new 40K box with berserker AND a new WFB box with chaos warrior/daemon/whatever, both of which use juggernauts.
Well, and I thought I was paying close attention to these rumours. Either way I'm glad to hear it!Might want to look back a few pages

This is the reason why I don't think the WoC release will actually come this year. More likely to be Dwarfs or Dark Elves. The Chaos fans will have already got more than enough kits to keep 'em going, so you'd get better sales if you waited for... oh... 'round april next year, I'd recon.
Don't take it for gospel, though, it's not like I've got a source or anything...
Remind me how much we knew about the Empire release in July/August last year? Was anywhere aware of anything about the new VC back in Feb 2011? I had originally been told that Dwarves were the third army this year around 2-3 months ago, the same people are now saying they'd got it wrong and it's Warriors. That's enough for me as they've been reliable in the past.
In terms of new units/kits there's plenty they could do. We'd be saying the same thing about VC before all the new unit types leaked.
A lot of people had said it would either be Dwarfs or WoC depending which book was finished first, it just seemed that WoC got finished first, not surprising as all it needs is tweaking for 8th, Dwarfs need a entire to new counter magic system that is as effective as the old (perhaps nerfed a bit) but worked within the constraints of the current system, the current system is ok, problem is it's still based on the old system "of the more you take, the better it is", this is certainly something they have tried to avoid, taking more seems more about variety now.
Me and you both!
Do you know if the dragon ogres will be new sculpts (either plastic or finecrap) or the old models re-released in finecrap?
Visit and rate my fantasy log : A lot of green against a feeble mind
Models painted 2011= 45 / 2012 = 62 / 2013 = 7
We don't "know" anything.
There are however rumours of brand-spankin' new models for Dragon Ogres. If true, they'd make sense to be made in plastic, so you can make all the options.
I thought Hastings said that he's actually seen the new Dragon Ogres?
"IMHO the very definition of a Hobby is that it takes more time and costs more than one can justify. And yet we continue." - kendoka
Yeah, I think so. In any case, I really can't see GW finecasting those models as they are looking very outdated now. Nearly 20 years old, and they look it.
Hope this isn't too far off-topic, but the new Skin Wolves from WF have a subtly different take on Marks of Chaos. It's been rumoured for a while (and is self-evident to anyone with more than two brain cells) that the current Marks system just doesn't work - is this a sign of things to come?
MoK grants Skin Wolves +1 S instead of Frenzy (though they come with Frenzy automatically so not much to read into that). MoT improves their Regen save instead of granting a Ward save (though 5+ Regen and 6+ Ward would be pointless). More interestingly, MoN gives Poisoned Attacks which is vastly better than -1BS/WS, and MoS gives ASF which is... well, I'm not sure whether it's better than ItP or not, but it's certainly the way GW is going with Slaanesh stuff nowadays (ie. everything is fast, for some reason nobody has ever explained, instead of taking pleasure from pain so not being scared of it, like the fluff says).
Well, it's either gonna be as effective, more effective or nerfed (less effective). Can't have everything.
What Dwarfs need is new sculpts for over half of their miniature line.
I wouldn't read to much into that, SunTzu. The giant for example has different rules for the marks as well, Slaanesh granting ASF while MoK increases his strength. Nevertheless I hope for some changes in the mark system as well.
We'll see.
Look upon us and Despair, for we are the End, the Decay of all things, the horror of rot and the blessing of plague.
Ok, so i have read a bit of the topic, but don't have time to read through all of it.
There is one doubt I have. Is it for sure that de army book is being redone? I mean before others far more older such as bret o WE, o daemons, HE, empire?
Thanks
