Und ich dachte, die neue Deathguard wirkt teils viel zu überladen.

Das gilt nur für GW-Modelle. Bei FW ist das immer "such dezent" und "much Detailreichtum". 😉

Meh. Valdor ist zu überladen für den Killer aus Master of Mankind.

Der Kopf der Bestie auf seiner Schulter ist schonmal seperat. Fragt sich nur, wie groß die entstehende Lücke wäre und ob man die verspachteln kann. Der Kopf ist auch seperat. Theoretisch könnte man daraus was machen. Wenn nur nicht diese hässlichen Klauen auf seinem Oberschenkel wären.

Bin immernoch ein wenig überrascht, wie schlecht der geworden ist.

 

[Warmaster]

Ich finde Valdor sehr gelungen 🙂 Und ein Quasi-Primarch der Custodes darf auch mal etwas edler ausschauen

The cast list for Wolfsbane is insane!

Ok, I have trudged through the queues, bought some things, got some books, and even managed to get Dan Abnett to sign the event anthology (I think the other authors may have a word, he's taken up most of the front page!)
Something I didn't spot as well, they have book 48, The Burden of Loyalty, on sale too. Also pre-sales for Black Library Live tickets at WHW in June.

Right, I'm going to crack open some models and see what's what in the boxes. Expect poor light shots, because for some reason my room only has mood lighting...

Ok, so taken some shots of the parts Valdor comes in, it's not as many as I had thought.

First niggle is that I've already got to get mine replaced, as the scroll he's holding has already broke. that's beyond filly to try and pin so it's going back.

The scenic base is Prospero themed, and is quite nice. There's a good level of detail, and I don't think he's overly bling-y considering who he is.
I tried to do a height comparison with a regular Custode, and I think he's standing a clear head taller - but it's difficult to tell due to his posing (epic stance, standing on a rock)

I'll crack open the shield captain, as that guy was a nice surprise.

My kingdom for that Wolfsbane novel

I seriously think the internal art is getting a lot better, like this:

Leman Russ howls for an audience in the hall of the Erlking

How about one of the Warmaster too:

There is one - but there's only 4 pieces of art in the book and I don't want to end up showing them all.
Can't spoil everything now can we

But those are probably the two most epic pictures in the book

I'm not sure whether this is new or not, but I've come across something interesting in the Journal they've been selling as an Event Exclusive. Nice writing book, but at the bottom of every fourth page or so they give you a date in the Imperial calendar and a notable event on that date. Most are stuff we already know, such as Istvaan or Molech, or even the siege - but I swear these two I've not heard of before:

029.012.M31 - The Dark Angels destroy Chemos, the home world of the Emperor's Children

398.013.M31 - The Dark Angels destroy Barbarus, home world of the Death Guard

I'll be the first to admit I still haven't caught up with all my HH readings (and buying another two books in the series isn't helping matters), but I've never seen this before. Is this new info?

Apparently the Dark Angels also destroyed Davin - seems that they were on their own purge towards the end of the Heresy.

Is the new Shield Captain an event only? I've seen some people say so, but it doesn't say that on the poster.

Still to be determined - the guys manning the sales area weren't FW so couldn't say for sure, but they seem to think it would be available for a general release.

one to confirm for tomorrow.

Heute

Welcome folks to day 1 of the Weekender, local time as I’m writing this is coming up 9am, with the opening seminar starting at around 10am. I might skip the first seminar (a welcome to Necromunda) as I have books for people to sign and cabinets to peruse.

I’ll also be checking the Warhammer Community page through the weekend, but especially this morning. I expect quite quickly we’ll see photos of the pre-orders, I’m just debating whether they’ll drop some of the preview stuff in the cabinets, which if they do at 10am will annoy me. I hope they have the sense to keep that powder dry until after the New Model seminar.

Not wanting to dwell on this too much, but for those absolutely demanding to see the internal artwork for Sanguinius, and who think that not showing everything immediately is an act of snobbery ... here it is:

https://imgur.com/dLZotI4

It’s not fantastic, which is why I would rather show off the Russ and Horus pieces, which are simply stunning in comparison. A group shot of Primarchs isn’t exactly common, but they’re in the distance and don’t have the level of detail and impact that the other two have.
The fourth and last pic is Cawl, as an acolyte huddled over a desk in the dark:

https://imgur.com/UcfqtPl

A better quality picture - but unless you know it’s Cawl it could literally be any Mechanicum Acoylte...

I hope that removes the stain of ‘snobbery’ from my posts.

And for whoever it was asking about the availability of the Horus Heresy journal (for writing in, but with a super fancy cover) - it’s an event exclusive, sorry

Some news from the sales area, the following have currently sold out with a potential to get more later on in the weekend:
Valdor
Shield Captain
Necromunda Hired Guns


Stock level on Dorn is pretty low too.

Also, the random appearance of the SW Praetor is because when they first produced the model they ear-marked a quantity for the event which weren’t put into general release. He is being ‘tweaked’ but the guy didn’t know how, he’s not FW so it’s a bit much to be expected.

@kombatwombat - the rules for Misericordia are simply a generic hand weapon, no additional stat line or abilities. I spoke with Alan Bligh about it at the last Weekender. As for an FAQ, that’s another question to add to the pile.

There may be some new sales items tomorrow morning... Tony Cottrell has just announced

Been offline going round the various cabinets and chatting to various people, so I've managed to skip the first two seminars (slightly annoyed about missing the second, not so much on the first).

With regards to the journals, they are a limited release run. The actual plan for these is for them to be available in GW sores (not third parties) for a specific weekend in May. Apparently there were only ~5000 made, and there are about ~450 GW stores globally, so each store will be getting around half a dozen. They freed up a few hundred for here, and any leftovers may get carried across to Warhammer Fest and possibly (not definitely) be available in the Black Library store at WHW. In short, if you're coming to WHW and are expecting to find some then you're likely out of luck. The easiest way will be to wait to May and make sure you can get one at your local GW.

Wolfsbane release might be April, might be May. Just spoke to Guy Hayley and Nick Kyme about this, these are super early pre release

I spent around half an hour with Simon Eagan talking about Primarchs and stuff, and boy is this guy more gifted than we give him credit for...

First off, Dorn was pretty much scratch built at a 1:1 scale in the flesh. No CAD, no three-ups, literally working at a level of detail that you get on the model - it's insane. The really small balls that go around some of the armour pads and on the chest eagle, those actually come from a Britta water filter (other water filtering products are available), and the head started off as Ferrus Manus with some hair sculpted on...
Very tight lipped about what is coming next, he's obviously not allowed to talk about anything much about what he's currently working on. We talked about the Emperor getting a model, and to quote him "I'd be very unhappy if I didn't get to do the Emperor", and with there being a scene similar to the classic Mike McVey diorama with the Emperor standing off against Horus over the broken body of Sanguinius. Going through the work books he's brought (Dorn, Russ and Magnus), there's some very cool early concepts and showing of how everything is brought together in the model. And bits like Russ' head was originally Fulgrim's just add to the amazement. In all seriousness, the magnificent pads that Dorn wear originally started off as basic Terminator shoulder pads that had all the detail added manually...
This guy blows my mind with what he can do with a sculpting tool.

Neil Roberts was there too with his art folders, and it's amazing to see all the extra bits he adds in where titles, spines and blurbs are going to be present - he adds in little bits and pieces in the full knowledge that no-one other than him is going to see them, and he still does them anyway. Insanity. Did manage to get one small bit of info out of him, which is the latest piece he's working on is, in his words, an "anti-Ullanor" where instead of there being Primarchs and the Imperials there's a bunch of destruction and chaos worshipping. Lips were tightened after that. Apparently some of the Black Library guys had a meeting yesterday to start fleshing out the first three books of the Siege of Terra arc, but he wasn't privy to a lot of that.

Not a lot of new stuff in the cabinets - I did see some Alpha Legion and Salamander door sets on display, I don't think I've seen them before but they've probably been documented now. We're hitting Lunch now, and then afterwards I will be entirely in seminars for the rest of the day:

Future of Necromunda - 1:45 - 2:45 (approx 1hr from now)
Malevolance - 3:00 - 4:00 (approx 2hr15 from now)
New HH Models - 4:15 - 5:00 (approx 3hr30 from now)

Den Aurox finde ich mal verdammt sexy <3

 

[Lexstealer]

Termite, Mole, Schaukelstuhl... man fühlt sich etwas in der Zeit zurückversetzt.:happy: Der Techpriester ist auch ganz nett.

 

[Inquisitor Hein]

Ein neuer Acastus Knight...
Fein. Ist gekauft 🙂

 

[Romano]

Ich finde Valdor sehr gelungen 🙂 Und ein Quasi-Primarch der Custodes darf auch mal etwas edler ausschauen

Warum denn Primarch?

 

[Avemir]

Er meinte quasi Primarch.
Valdor könnte es mit dem ein oder anderen Primarchen aufnehmen denke ich

 

[Schlumpfstampfa]

[Legio]

Valdor ist eben DER Custodes. Der steht einer Legion von Halbgöttern vor, und ich glaube wenn der aufn Tisch haut nimmt das auch ein Robbie nicht nur mit nem Schulterzucken hin 😀
Finde das Modell so cool, ich überlege grad wie ich das für AoS konvertieren könnte ^^

 

[Warmaster]

Er meinte quasi Primarch.

Genau das. Funktion in der Fraktion

 

[Romano]

Genau das. Funktion in der Fraktion

Wobei die Funktion des Primarchen ja nicht in der eines Anführers erschöpft ist. Der Primarch ist ja ebenso genetischer Vater seiner Marines und unterscheidet sich von ihnen in ähnlicher Weise, wie sich ein Space Marine von einem normalen Menschen unterscheidet. Valdor ist aber nur ein "normaler" Custodes und somit doch eigentlich nur mit einem Chapter Master zu vergleichen. Was den Einfluss von Valdor angeht ist es schwerer einzuschätzen. Aber ich meine mich erinnern zu können, dass es irgendwo hieß, dass selbst die Primarchen den Custodes keine Befehle im Hinblick auf den Schutz des Imperators geben konnten. Im Hinblick auf alles andere können sie ihnen dann wohl doch Befehle geben. Der Primarchen vergleich ist meiner Meinung nach etwas hoch gegriffen.

Edit:
Hier der entsprechende Absatz aus dem Lexicanum:
"Nicht einmal Primarchen besaßen das Recht, ihnen Befehle zu geben, wenn es um die Sicherheit des Imperators ging.[SUP]12 K.15"
[/SUP]

• [SUP]12[/SUP]: A Thousand Sons (Roman)

 

[Ragnar Schwarzmähne]

Ich denke in dem Vergleich ging es auch mehr um das kämpferische Können von Valdor.

Aber als Chef von 10000 Superüberkriegern, denen Primarchen keine Befehle geben dürfen, könnte man seine Machtfülle auch hier mit Primarchen vergleichen.
