Forgeworld Visual Feed teaser? FW Warlord Titan coming?

Original from FW Visual Feed, used without permission. Courtesy of aracersss in the comments from Faeit212

Are FW doing the same as GW and hiding the future in plain sight? This was shown during the visual feed from FW just emailed to subscribers and on the Warhammer App. Lord H just sent me the picture and asked the same question?

The video pans up through a Warhound, then a Reaver and on to a Warlord Titan. Reminiscent of the release order perhaps?

This is the best rendition of a Warlord Titan seen so far, echoes from the Imperial Knight in the head design, and when questioned back in 2012 at Gamesday, Will Hayes FW designer behind the Reaver Titan did say it was on his to-do list...

Am I just wish listing like SoB or Squat/Hrud rumours? We'll see... I'm getting one, whenever that'll be I will attempt to paint it myself and match Slayer Sword Winner Richard Gray's style who painted my Reaver and Warhounds!

7th Edition rumours????

For a while there has been rumours about the potential for a 7th Edition of 40k, I've had it confirmed today that indeed GW are stopping the purchase of the 'rule book' however the Dark Vengeance is still available- apparently there will be further news in coming in White Dwarf in the coming weeks, as well as the website.. May apparently could be an interesting month...

Space Marines- rumour 3

Hi all,

to conclude my rumours themed posts this week, I'd thought I'd share the news about the new 'one click' purchase that will be available..

A ONE CLICK CHAPTER- wow... this is rumoured to be 9,964,75€, or £8,529.33.. again wow.. 

this is a weird one, I'd love to see a chapter in a box, much like the company in a box, however this will probably be a 'warehouse order' whereby it will be thrown together into a crate and shipped to you- I think there would be more possible interest if this came with limited edition sergeants for the tactical squad, or weapon variations for the razorbacks etc, or pre moulded banners for a series of chapters (founding ones maybe?) , different backpacks to the normal, or weapons versions etc. this would make the pack more attractive, as well as when people see models from the set on the table you'd know that these were from the chapter bundle.. 

this offer got me thinking about another crazy offer that has been offered by a gaming company- (sorry this isn't anything to do with weeman, but I had to share...)

The Million Dollar Pack also includes plastic surgery of the purchaser's choice, a shopping spree with a personal shopper, seven nights for two at The Jefferson Hotel in Washington, a "hostage rescue experience," a brand new Toyota Prius, and a seven-night stay at the Top Royal Suite at the Burj-al-arab with flights for two.
The Saints Row IV Million Dollar Pack is available for preorder at GAME and will be delivered--if it is purchased--in a "truly presidential style," Deep Silver said. Saints Row IV launches August 20

For a $1 million dollars- you could get several chapters!!!!

Space Marine Rumours Part 2

Further rumours of the impending Space Marine Codex have been leaked, here below are a few of the, with my thoughts.. (thanks goes to http://pinsofwar.com/warhammer-40k-space-marine-special-characters-rumors/ for these)

Marneus Calgar: 
  • +25 Points
  • Artificer Armor standard (2+)
  • God of War: May use a single Combat Doctrine twice per game
  • Titanic Might: Re-rolls all armor penetrating hits in close combat. He may reroll glancing hits to attempt to get a penetrating hit. Must accept the second roll even if it is worse than the first.
  • Weapons and Ammo still the same. Terminator Armor still has Frag and Krak Grenades. Retain his Teleport Homer.
  • Terminator Armor is 10 points and doesn’t prevent sweeping advances.Warlord Trait: Rolls 3 times on the Warlord Table, rerolling doubles, and chooses a single Warlord Trait.
 I really like the sound of these new rules, no mention if he has the eternal warrior rule (I hope so) I'm alittle upset by the price increase, however it will be interesting to see how the warlord traits for SM's are. I'll still use him- I think the model is great!


Captain Cato Sicarius:
  • -15 points
  • Surprise Attack: +1 to Reserve Rolls
  • Weapons still the same
  • Battle-forged Heros: Pick a Tactical Squad and they gain Counter-Attack, Infiltrate or Scout.
  • May still use the Coup-de-Grace with his sword.
  • Lost Rites of Battle
  • Warlord Trait: Imperium Sword 
I've never used Cato in his previous incarnation, however with the price drop, and the fact there is the addition +1 on reserves I think he might be a winner! be interesting to see if he retains his 'feel no pain' armour

Tigirius:
  • -65 points
  • +1 Wound
  • Master Psyker: May re-roll any or all of his rolls to choose which powers he knows. He has access to all the powers.
  • ML3
  • Hood of Hellfire: Psychic Hood that allows you to re-roll failed psychic tests
  • Rod of Tigiruis: Same as before with the addition of Soulblaze
  • Gift of Prescience: If your army contains Tigirius you may choose to re-roll reserves and apply the result to units of the same attachement.
  • Warlord Trait: Storm of Fire
My first 40k character I ever bought was Tigirius, and with the refresh, and will certainly be using him again! the only issue with the previous edition was the lack of EW, or an invulnerable save- with access to all psychic powers he could have- and potentially could become one of the strongest characters in 40k..

Cassius:
  • Zealot
  • All equipment the same
  • Warlord Trait: Angel of Death
Glad he retains the same wargear- I could see them going back to the pistol version for some reason.. I really like the idea of a Calgar/Cassius unit with terminators

Telion:
  • Chapter Tactics: Ultramarines
  • Same points cost
  • Same rules
The points cost were just about right from him, glad he retains the original rules as it made sense to be able to use his high BS on a scout with a missile launcher with the fluff in mind

Sergeant Chronus:
  • -20 points
  • +1LD
  • His vehicle gains It Will not Die
 The point drop makes a lot of sense, as I never really thought the points cost was justified, however the inclusion of 'it will not die' makes his vehicle very powerful indeed- my thoughts would be either for him on a Land Raider, or Predator. My thoughts are that the +1 LD is really BS like the previous edition. 
thanks for reading!
