    Baneblade

    So yeah this kind of perks my interest... funky new style for the cover as well (though I'm not so sure about it)

    Baneblade? BANEBLADE!

    The cover art I'm not sold on. Feels a bit too early 2000's CGI for my tastes.

    Looks almost like a Baen book cover, but without any power-armored aryans.

    The cover should have some more grit to it, a little bit to clean. And a couple om mangled heretic corpses lying on the ground to get a scale comparison.

    Hmm, didn't we already had the Baneblade crew story in Angel of Fire?

    Doesn't mean we can't get another one. Angel of Fire is about three of the crew members of A Baneblade. Having talked with Guy, his novel sounds as if it is about a Baneblade REGIMENT.

    Fair enough, but the way the book is sold is as if we've never got that look at life inside that tank before. Still curious though...

    More Baneblades are always welcome. We have been getting a lot of them recently, with Angel of Fire and Wrath of iron featuring them somewhat heavily. Enough of the interior is now described that they could do a floorplan or cutaway image.

    I wonder if they will mention that they are Arkurian pattern, as the plastic kits have been designated by Forge World.
