Damnatus on the Lamb! - Maybe?

So remember guys when that big brouhaha regarding the German fan-made file Damnatus hit a couple of years ago.

When we last heard the story, the film was consigned to a dark oubliette of secrecy, never to be released.

That is until a little bit ago, when the good ole BoLS emailbox was pointed to this little gem sitting out on Google Videos (which I'm stunned is still up and running in the wake of Youtube). According to the Google date, its been sitting there since February 18th!

Now I never saw Damnatus in its first drafts, so I can't say one way or the other if this is the real deal. But, whatever it it, its clearly a fan-made production running about 90 minutes.

40K RUMORS: The Mystery Box с Колокола

So the plot thickens folks. In a highly unusual marketing move, word is starting to dribble out of GW of a totally secret product that will unveiled in stores in August. It is described as something totally new and unheard of, that will be a limited run. The current rumors swirling about are:

-Product announcement on 15-16th August, with a ship date in September.

-August/september they are selling a box set for around £50. (@$70 USD)

-It is a completely stand alone set that is not related to any race.

-It is something that GW has never done before.

-Some local stores are only getting one shipment; when that sells out it will no longer be available.

-You can't advance order it. You have to be there on the day to get it.

-It is not Planetary Empires.

-It is a board game.

-Very limited GW people know what it is. Blueshirts have indicated what they know and the Blackshirts avoid questions.

-Likely to be 40K related, but not definitely confirmed.

Подробности 40K REVIEW: Planetstrike - АХТУНГ!!!

Hi guys,

Bigred here, with our latest Warhammer 40000 product review. I have recently finished reading my copy of Planetstrike and want to go over it in detail with you guys who may be debating whether its worth your time.

Basics

80 Pages

B/W with color plates (like a codex)

Standard codex sized format

Softback

Price: $25 USD

Content Breakdown

Planetstrike Rules: 25 pages

Strategems: 13 pages

Campaigns and Missions: 8 pages

Fluff and Painted Mini Section: 26 pages

Content Review

First up, this book is an expansion for the main rulebook, so if you are already a 40k player, you're ready to go. In the same vein as Cities of Death, the book mainly covers large attacker-defender style missions, instead of the balanced missions with no predefined roles we get in the standard rulebook. With differing sides and contrasting FOC tables, Planetstrike will require a little bit of pre-planning, and lends itself well to narrative gameplay or more organized playstyles than just simple pickup games.

Planetstrike Rules

After a brief introduction we get right into the meat of the rules section. This is broken into 2 broad categories:

-Organizing a battle

-Defensive Terrain

Organizing a battle is a real homage to the old "battles" section of the 4th edition rulebook with even more embellishments added in. Both attacker and defender are presented with new FOC tables, allowing both players to build up forces that are otherwise not possible outside of Apocalypse. Things like 6 elites for the attacker and 6 heavy suppport choices for the defender and much more are guaranteed to peak players interest ,and produce some very different games.

The book goes on to cover the placement of objectives, how forces arrive on-table, and the attackers and defenders goals and objectives. In general the attacker has a hard road early to mid-game with the defender gaining the advantage of position, and formidable defenses, but it is the defender who will start the sweating late game. Objectives may be claimed by the attacker with only a single surviving model, and every squad counts as scoring, so the attacker must not only be prepared, but thorough with his firepower. Even small rag-tag remnants of attacking squads can achieve victory.

Defensive terrain is the visual highlight of Planetstrike. Here we get detailed rules for:

-Bastions

-Interceptor Guns (with limited overwatch abilities!)

-Defense Lines

-Landing Pads

-Fortresses

The rules are clean, and work with the core rulebook well. Did I mention that all defensive weapons on the new terrain pieces fire at BS:2 and are awarded to the defending player for FREE!

Strategems

After the core rules, we move onto the Strategems. These are really cool, if somewhat analagous to the Cities of Death strategems section. There are a large set of strategems divided into attacker and defender pools, to spice missions up. From attacking Stasis Bombs, to defending Drop-Bastions, there is something for every game. The section then moves on to my favorite part of the entire book: race-specific strategems. Here we see such awesome abilities as the Space Marines mighty Drop Pod strikes, to the fear-inducing terror of Dark Eldar assaults, and their craftworld brother's deceptive use of the Web-way. Along the way, we get little background tidbits on some of the game's older races that is sure to tantalize the fluff nuts.

Campaigns and Missions

Next up is a short section that expands the default Planetstrike mission presented earlier into a full set of 6 missions with differing special rules and objectives for variety. These may be played in series to represent a mini-campaign depicting the invasion of a world, and are a treasure trove for narrative gamers or campaign designers. I can see many of these being used with Planetary Empires to really add depth to league play.

Fluff and Painting Section

Next up a large section covers many famous invasions of the 40th Millenium, covering every race out there. Many of Warhammer 40k's older codices get a nice dusting off with dramatic new stories, and artwork. The Dark Eldar and Space Wolves are standouts in this department, with a bunch of intriguing hints and information.

Finally we hit the obligatory crazy color battle plates chock full of pretty pics. While not as over the top as the Apocalypse books, we get to see every major race slugging it out in and around the new Planetstrike terrain sets. High quality 'Eavy Metal work abounds, along with lots of Forgeworld goodies and its definately inspiring.

Downsides

While everything is good so far, there are some issues. Once again, we see Witchhunters and Daemonhunters left in the cold strategem-wise. While there are thankfully Grey Knight and Sisters models in a couple of pics, I'm starting to get the feeling that continueing from Apocalypse there is some reason GW is not mentioning those two codeices by name any longer. Some will note the broad similarity between Planetstrike and Cities of Death, and the criticism is warranted. Both supplements are broadly similar, and you will find the strategem sections to be blurred reflections of each other.

Summary

On balance, Planetstrike is a good bargain for the price, with the terrain sets being even better. If you enjoy the drama of disparate roles for both players, or you feel the standard pickup-missions from the rulebook are getting a little old, you will love this product. It opens up the game to include new playstyles that let you use your existing minis collections in new ways. The ruleset dovetails nicely into the existing rulebook with little to no hickups, and the expansion of the game to include such common 40th Millenium themes as bastions, fortified lines, and the like will only enhance the dark-gothic look of your tabletops. Lastly, it is cheaper and more accessable than Apocalypse supplements, being an add-on to the core game.

С офицального сайта(форума) <<Алегрис>>

Q: Добрый день, когда примерно появятся в продаже наборы из Planet Strike и сама книга правил Planet Strike (на русском)?

A: В продаже наборы и книга правил должны появиться в течении ближайших двух недель (ожидаем их в ближайшей партии), переводить книгу правил на русский язык пока не планируем.

[Dr Darog]

Citadel Water Pot Designed to fit in the pre-cut slots of the Citadel Paint Station, the Citadel Water Pot has six grooves for holding your brushes and a removable lid to make filling and cleaning easy.

Citadel Palette Shaped like an Empire shield and made from a high-gloss plastic, the Citadel Palette can be cleaned using hot water and provides a reusable surface to mix and thin paints on.

[Alfаrius]

Fasten your seatbelts. Talk on the tubes is the Sons of Russ are returning this October.

WOLFRIDERS?!

BoLS has been hearing talk of at least one unit capable of riding wolves and this might be it:

-The new trade order form lists Canis Wolfborn ($41.25) in the marine section.

He's got a very big wolf in a not so weired way as that sounds.

-Wolfguard Leader/Wolfguard Bodyguard riding wolves!

EQUIPMENT

Always reliable Brimstone has been dropping hints:

-Lightning Claws pah, the Wolves of Fenris have no use for such items.

In relation to this recently released mini:

Others step in to say:

-They are called Wolf Claws in the new codex, you can choose to either re-roll to hit or to wound.

CHARACTERS

-Njal Stormcaller indeed is back, and with a new model, holding a gnarled staff out before him.

-Bjorn is back

MINIS

-2 new plastic kits:1 of them can be used to make pretty much every SW troop choice by combining the oooodles of spares on the sprues with normal vanilla marines kits (e.g. a box of devastators plus the extra from the sprues will make your Longfangs. IIRC there are around 30+ heads on the sprue!!! There may also be a special vehicle, but I'm not sure if it's a complete kit or if there will be an upgrade sprue to add to the existing kit.

-Metal Wolfguard Bodyguard terminators

~Standard Caveats apply, but much of this is now multiple-sourced. It looks like this October timeslot falls just past the September 27th date for Gamesday UK. We have heard chatter that a lot of this will be formally rolled out there.

[Alfаrius]

OK, so we must be within the 3 month window, because all the canaries are singing. Latest Space Wolves skuttlebutt from all over the place around the tubes:

-Leman Russ is out, a Land Raider Variant with possible assault cannon armament is in.

-Space Wolves ICs are equipped in a method broadly similar to WFB Vampire Counts characters. You basically build a "Saga" for your hero, which fluff wise lists his heroic deeds, and grants various sets of package-deal special abilities. ~Very much Viking in nature. I Approve!

-Bjorn is said to have AV:14 front armor, with other details contradictory in nature.

-Jump-pack options will be changing in the new codex, and jump-pack marines are called "Skyriders".

From our fellow enthusiasts overseas there is also this:

- Todo el ejercito mantendrá la regla de contraataque y todos menos los los garras sangrientas, irán con la regla de disparar con una mano "pero algo mas especial":

En principo parece ser que le querian dar el equipo completo como hicieron con otros codex (bolter, pistola y Arma de CaC) pero al final parece que podrian haber optado porque "cualquier miniatura con esta regla y armada con un BOLTER (nada de rifles de plasma) pueda hacer fuego rápido y asaltar ese mismo turno". Ahi es na...

- Los garras van con HA 4 (al parecer mantienen la HP 3) y cambian su regla actual por asalto rabioso.

- Los colmillos largos al parecer van a ser muy muy buenos. Segun comentan, no venden muchos devastadores marines y menos aún de colmillos largos, por lo tanto podrian potenciarlos bastante. Por lo visto a parte de mantener su regla actual (dividir el fuego entre dos unidades), el lider de la jauria tambien daria a la unidad la regla de implacables. De todos los rumores este es el que mas que cuesta creerme.

- La guardia del lobo tambien será bastante potenciada, pero solo se ha a filtrado que tendran toda una pagina con configuraciones de equipo.

- Lo que se comento de un Bjorn de multiples blindajes 14 (aún no se sabe a ciencia cierta por cuantos lados pero frontal contad con ello).

- Ragnar por lo visto a a ser un energumeno de cuidao. Aparte de un buen perfil, su inclusion en ejercito daria a este ligeros y a la unidad a la que se una armas aceradas y +1 ataque.- En cuanto a fechas casi con seguridad serán el codex de octubre y se presentarán todas las novedades en el Games day inglés que cae por esas fechas.

~Standard Caveats on this this stuff. Have at it guys (especially you Spanish translators). I can almost hear the Wolf calls on the wind from here. Maybe its just me, but I have a feeling this codex is going to fall very, very far from the standard Space Marine Codex. Just as Russ would have wanted.

Warhammer 40,000 Bitz Packs

Warhammer 40,000 Bitz packs are designed to allow you to model and convert your Citadel miniature collection. Alongside the recently released Bastion Upgrade and Cities of Death Floor Packs, we've selected a couple of Bitz packs that will give your units an extra edge in Planetstrike. If there's nothing below for your army or current modelling project, you can browse the full range of Warhammer 40,000 Bitz packs here.

Bastion Upgrade Pack Packed with weapons, sensors and armour plates, this set can be used to convert your Bastion or ready your other Warhammer 40,000 scenery pieces for games of Planetstrike.

Cities of Death Floor Pack Add some extra floor space to your Warhammer 40,000 buildings with this set that contains a mix of large and small floor sections.

Meltaguns Fewer weapons are better at dealing with armoured units and vehicles than meltaguns. This makes them incredibly useful in games of Planetstrike where you'll be faced with Armour 14 Bastions and scores of battle tanks.

Imperial Guard Tank Accessories Personalise your Imperial tanks and super-heavies with this set of accessories that is equally useful for Ork and Chaos players who want to assemble looted vehicles.

Tyranid Monstrous Arms An extra set of rending claws can come in handy when tearing down an enemy Bastion. Upgrade your Tyranid army to deal with anything the enemy can throw at them with this weapons frame.

Tau Shield Drone Shield Drones have a 4+ Invulnerable Save and are an ideal way of making sure your Crisis Battle Suit and Broadside Battle Suit teams survive long enough to blast the enemy off the table.

Back to Top

Warhammer Bitz & Collectors

Below you'll find the most recently released Warhammer Bitz & Collectors models. There's a wide range of Warhammer Bitz & Collectors models available and it's worth spending some time browsing the range – you're sure to find an interesting model or great conversion piece that you never knew existed.

The Chase Warhammer has but one rule: eat or be eaten. Ponder this truism, comically summed up by this characterful vignette, or simply enjoy the absurdness of the Night Goblin's plight.

Animosity Orcs Orcs are born and bred fighters, and they're not overly fussed whether they're fighting the enemy or each other! This set is perfect for denoting your Orc & Goblin units that have failed their Animosity test.

Orc Shields Personalise your Orc characters and regiments, or mark a unit out as Big 'Uns with this set of 10 metal Orc Shields.

Incoming! Space Wolves

The Space Wolves were one of the first Space Marine Chapters founded by the Emperor; fierce and barbaric heroes of legend who charge fangs bared into the teeth of the enemy. In October, this Chapter of ferocious warriors is being re-launched with a brand-new Codex and range of Citadel Miniatures.

As a newsletter subscriber, we thought you should be among the first to catch a glimpse of the all-new Space Wolves.

Space Wolf Grey Hunter

This stunning Grey Hunter has been assembled using the forthcoming multi-part plastic box set; just one of the fantastic new Space Wolf sets coming in October!

Make sure you check out tomorrow's blog and the August issue of White Dwarf for more on the Space Wolves.

Picture says a thousand words:

So new plastic Space Wolves on the way in October!

The cover for Legend of the Space Marines is up on BL.

Ден Абнетт о новой книге о СВ

So, now, as the temperature pushes into the thirties, the cats are flaked out like discarded draught-excluders wishing their fur coats were un-zippable, and Roddick and Federer fight it out to the bitter end, I’m girding my loins for the next big project. Yes, folks, it’s Prospero Burns (Mongomery’s less-well known brother).

Stop me if you’ve heard this, but, originally, I was going to tackle the Thousand Sons side of the deal, and Graham was going to handle the Space Wolves. The reason for this - and I really do understand that the following revelation is such a heretical statement that Eisenhorn might have to come and shoot me through the lungs - is that I don’t really like Space Wolves.

All right. Stop yelling. Stop it. Stop. I KNOW, okay? I know. Let me explain. I think the Space Wolves are great. They are a great, vivid, visceral element of 40K, great to play, great to collect. But for use in fiction they are, to me, too on the nose. They too obviously resemble the source of their inspiration. Think of it this way: I could write a novel about a chapter of space marines, who originated on a tough, unforgiving world of high plains and grassy savannahs. The chief way of life was as drovers, driving the million-animal herds of gigantic, and often very dangerous, grox across continents. This work bred men who were tough, weather-beaten and wily, relentless, dogmatic, reflective, but mercurially fast. They evolved quick wits and cunning, and quick reflexes, but they could also sit in the saddle for days, biding their time. They were almost empathically connected to their loyal steeds. They knew how to chase, hunt, defend the herd, bring down a big bull. And the very toughest and most promising of these drovers were selected by the mysterious warriors, who lived in their isolated fort on the isolated mountain, to be inducted into their ancient order of space marines.

Sounds pretty reasonable, doesn’t it? Sounds like a decent basis for a chapter, right?

Now what if I said the chapter was called the Six Shooters? And that their armour design included chaps, a bandana and a ten gallon hat? Oh, and spurs? And they were famous for their trademark ‘two-bolt-gun’ holsters?

You see what I mean?

The inspiration is fine. The Thousand Sons are Aztecs. The Blood Angels are goth vampires. The Imperial Fists are Romans. The White Scars are a mongol horde. The Iron Hands are robots. The Ultramarines (and, hell yeah, the Iron Snakes) are Greeks. The fact is that all of them have taken the point of inspiration and run with it. They’ve put the background idea through some kind of creative filter to make it both richer and less obvious. But the Space Wolves are exactly what they appear to be, with no filter and no remove, which makes them giant fun on the gaming table, and a giant pain in the arse in a novel.

So anyway... I finally suggested to Graham that I should take the Space Wolves, because it would force me to find a way into them. I’ve already seen the work he’s doing on the Sons, and, oh my god, it’s mouth-watering. His book, which will be called A Thousands Sons (one of those instances where the legion name is so good, you don’t need to invent a better book title), is going to be packed with great ideas. We’re knocking stuff back and forth, and a momentum is building. For my part, I’m filling my workspace with all things Norse and Viking, and Icelandic and barbarian. You wouldn’t believe the sources I’m going to. I want the Space Wolves to be ABSOLUTELY the Space Wolves all of you out there love, AND YET something you’re not expecting; something that’s gone through a filter; something that makes you all go “Christ in a longboat! I have never thought of them like that!”

Tomorrow, I may buy a bearded axe. If not tomorrow, then sometime this week. I kid you not. Sometimes, physically handling a key prop is the best way to unlock an idea. And I’ve already checked that the Rochester Armoury (that fine institution that, long time readers may remember, sold me a pilum on Good Friday), has something Danish and two-handed in my size.

More on the subject of axes and space vikings in coming weeks, I’m sure.

P.S. Огромное спасибо Кор Канту, что запостил)) Все кто не может залогиниться - чистите кукис. Помогает. Так же ждите подробностей по Планетстрайку)) Он идет))

Leman Russ Demolisher Sprues

You Imperial Guard guys will want to see this. Here we have 4 sprue shots of the new Leman Russ Demolisher combo kit.

I think you will find that this is a lot more than just some minor modifications to the venerable old Russ, but an entirely new kit. Check out all the hull and base turret differences, along with that new track guides system on the interior of the sides for ease of assembly. The all new sponson weapons, and Demolisher/Punisher/Executioner bits are just extra coolness on top!
