Немного о книге про Кримсон фистов от автора

Hi all,

Steve Parker here (you know, the guy whose name is on that cover).

I was reading this thread and the 'lactating ork' comment made me laugh out loud. You guys are disturbed! It seems most of you don't dig the Rynn's World cover much, and that's cool with me. I didn't paint it, after all, and writers rarely get to choose the art for their books. Regardless of your thoughts on it, though, I hope you'll give the novel itself a fair shot.

I'm just going into the second draft now and, as much as I'm constrained by what my publisher demands, I do listen to fans/readers. The Fists get hammered hard. Victory, such as there is in the book, is relative.

I hope you guys will enjoy it when it comes out in February.

In the meantime, bless your weapons,

Steve Parker

Пара новых новостей

Some news posted Here on the rather useful TGN...

Quote We just wanted to let you know that the latest round of preorders are now available on our website, and its a big month with highly anticipated titles as well as exclusives to the Black Library website.

First up the story of Sigmar in our Time of Legends range continues with Empire by Graham McNeill, second book in this trilogy about the man who who unites the tribes of men. The fledgling empire is growing, but as a Chaos invasion sweeps down from Norsca, the ensuing conflict tests the abilities of Sigmar and his chieftains to the utmost. As with all our Time of Legends books we are also releasing the cover art as an A2 poster which is available only via our website, you simply can’t get it anywhere else!

Nick Kyme’s first book in the Tome of Fire trilogy Salamander is not to be missed at all. Fans of the fire-born will undoubtedly have already read the short story in Heroes of the Space Marines which leads into this epic tale about these implacable warriors with iron hard determination as they attempt to uncover the location of an ancient artifact. With rivalries breaking out their endurance is tested to the very limit …

As if this wasn’t enough already we have yet more special items, and fans of Dan Abnett’s infamous Tanith first and only will be very pleased. Some time ago we released both The Founding and The Saint as hardbacks and due to popular demand are bringing out The Lost as a hardback. Available for a limited time while stocks last via our website and at UK Games Day 2009. The Tanith’s cap badge also returns, now with the daggers snapped just as Gaunt’s men do! Now how much more authentic can you be than that? Black Library have this too...

Quote Stunning Review for Aaron Dembski-Bowden's "Cadian Blood"

Cadian Blood might be his first novel for the Black Library, but Aaron Dembski-Bowden is already impressing reviewers. Check out this write-up for his debut.

"Right from the very start, I was sucked into the graphic descriptions of a world in its death throes and the valiant efforts of the Imperial Guard to reclaim it. Dembski-Bowden keeps things tense by isolating the reader from the wider picture and focussing on either what's right in front of a character or garbled bursts of static filled communication over the vox network. You don't know what is round the corner until you make that step yourself...

"On top of all this; the plot for 'Cadian Blood' is one that kept me hooked with its daring strikes, harrowing reverses and last ditch stands. The underlying mystery of the plague is also played out very well, especially when the stakes suddenly get a lot higher without any explanation. The uncertainty around this combines well with the hard reality of constantly fighting off zombies to drive the plot along at a decent rate... Nine and Three Quarters out of Ten".

Nine and Three Quarters!

Be sure to expect some major things from Aaron, as he's going to be at the helm of some major new series next year, the first being a new Night Lords series, and there may be talk of Heresy too... Spread the word. You saw it here first.

Hi guys,

Its almost August and that means its about time for the rumormill to start cranking out the projected schedule for the next 4-6 months. Here is what we've been hearing as well as what's been kicking around elsewhere around the net.

Late 2009

No big surprizes here. Wolves are officially confirmed by GW as of now, and the Skaven train has appaently left the station. Look for both of these before the holidays.

-Space Wolves

-Skaven

Early-mid 2010

Chatter has been growing regarding nids from several sources, and their general sci-fi popularity tends to see them updated somewhat regularly compared to the more specialized xenos codices. Blood Angels seems odd, but its is a recurring theme, and perhaps the design studio is unhappy with the results of the White Dwarf codex? Perhaps a percieved coat-tails tie-in with Space Hulk?

-Blood Angels

-Tyranids

The Usual Suspects

Word of these guys keeps being bantered about in the seemingly eternal locked-in-amber "they are in progress, but don't look for a release right away" mode. It's especially tearful to continue to hear this type of chatter for the Dark Eldar who have been waiting for soooooo long.

-Beast of Chaos

-Necrons

-Dark Eldar

Hi guys,

Today is Gamesday Chicago, and the rumormill has been pulsating regarding something that GW has been planning to unveil for the masses. Never fear folks for Alex, Kevin, and Rick from Terranforge are on the job, reporting live to BoLS from the event floor all day.

We will be updating this post reguarly with their pics, news and updates. Check back regularly!

10:00am...And he's in!

11:00am...Our first catch of the day! Forgeworld Chaos Reaver Datasheet (probably from Siege of Vraks:3)

12:00pm...More Chaos Reaver (I can't read German, can someone help me out), and a sketch of a Mechanicus Terminator! Interesting...

1:00pm...Jervis spoke:

-The Studio loves the idea of Chaos Legion specific codices. It will allow GW to build Legion specific models, but is still a while off.

-Necrons are further along that that, and Mike (???, unclear) has been dropping hints of what we may see in an upcoming Necron codex in various books.

-Global Studio Presentation starting soon...

1:30pm...We can expect superheavy kits to be bigger and better in the future. Trenches and rivers for the Realms of Battle board have been mentioned.

~Bigred here. Gee, can you think of any superheavies that might be bigger than the Baneblade...hmm?

-Oh, the anticipation is killing me! If anyone else is there in person, drop info into the comments, or email us.

Некоторые слухи о спруйках, новой ИГ и т.д. с варсира.

Bitz Packs

There was some scuttlebutt for a while about some kind of "Leman Russ sprue" being available separately as a Bitz Pack, now confirmed as the current/old Leman Russ Battle Tank "turret" sprue:

Leman Russ Accessories Pack (1 Plastic Sprue - Direct Only) Ј7.85 / US$13.25 / Oz$22 >>> Aug 1

http://www.warseer.com/forums/attachment.p...mp;d=1247836063

>>> Imperial Guard Tank Stowage (#TBC Metal Bits - Direct Only) Ј6.85 / US$11.50 - Sep 19

No pics yet.

>>> Imperial Guard Crew (2 Model Metal Blister - Direct Only) Ј6.85 / US$11.50 - Sep 19

No pics yet.

>>> Imperial Aquilas (14 Metal Bits - Direct Only) Ј4.90 / US$8.25 - Sep 19

No pics yet.

>>> Imperial Guard Heads (#TBC Metal Bits - Direct Only) Ј4.90 / US$8.25 - Sep 19

No pics yet.

>>> Imperial Guard Tank Commanders (3 Model Metal Blister - Direct Only) Ј5.85 / US$9.90 - Sep 19

No pics yet. Marked as 'Repackaged', so likely the old metal Tank Commanders available previously.

Other rumoured kits

All the releases for the Imperial Guard after the 1st Wave are said to be spread out over 18 months, so we're not going to see everything all at once. I was told the Demolisher and Hellhound kits would come first with artillery kit(s) "later". Which I took to mean at least one later this year, but it could just as easily mean next year.

>>> At Games Day Chicago 2009, Tom Walton and Jervis Johnson both said that there are plastics planned for all Imperial Guard, including many regiments. i.e. Everything they can make plastic will be plastic.

Basilisk (1 Model Plastic Kit)

Supposedly can assemble either a Basilisk, Medusa, Collossus or Griffon... although there was some talk that these might come in two separate kits rather than all in one. CAD of what looks a lot like the Colossus Siege Mortar:

http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/w...G_1662_CAD.jpg

Chimera (1 Model Plastic Kit)

Redesigned side panels in a similar manner as the Hellhound. See Hellhound sprue 2 above for one of the new sprues to be included in a redone Chimera kit. Other recut sprue(s) supposedly includes components to allow you to represent a Command Vehicle. CAD of Chimera hull and new side panel design:

http://www.warseer.com/forums/attach...3&d=1233797472

Leman Russ (1 Model Plastic Kit)

Redesigned in a similar manner as the Demolisher. See "Demolisher Sprue 2" above for one of the new sprues to be included in a redone Russ kit. As I recall, it was said there would only be three variants in this kit, which would leave one option from the Codex entry unrepresented.

Hydra (1 Model Plastic Kit)

Supposedly can assemble either a Hydra or Manticore.

Unresolved rumours

Storm Troopers

Greens of a Storm Trooper with shotgun were seen at the 40K 5th Edition Launch Event in the UK in July of 2008. It is unclear when or if this will be released. This assumed-to-be-plastic set was long rumoured to be released with an "Inquisiton supplement" around/with Planetstrike, and offer the option of representing Arbites / Inquisitorial Storm Troopers. Despite several secondhand reports of sightings "behind closed doors", no credible information has yet surfaced. The absence of Kasrkin models in the recently-released Codex would seem to offer indirect support of new models being in the works. Old rumour was a box set of 10 models between Ј12-Ј15.

http://warseer.com/forums/attachment...4&d=1232629639

Rough Riders

Plastic Rough Riders were rumoured quite a while back, with a supposed release in the 1.5 Wave, but I have no personal information on that rumour and can't speak for how reliable it is anymore.

Guys yesterday i talked with the GW person in charge for Italy who was here for a happening in my city

He said me a few thing on incoming spacewoves, that he had seen the sprues:

- There will be mainly 2 sprues/boxes. One for the Bloodclaws/greyhunters/Power armor wolf guard. There will be many heads (he said 50 but i think he

exaggerated. And another for Woldguard Terminators

- The wolf riding character will be the only riding a juggernought size wolf, and there won't be any other, so no units of wolf riding marines

- The Lone wolves will be alone (1 man unit) and will be realy strong guys acting similar of Tyranid Lictors

i hope i'm giving you some new info

GENERAL INFO

-To be released October 2009

-Codex written by Phil Kelly

-Space Wolves will supposedly be “even less Codex Astartes” than they were before. This would cover unusual squad sizes etc.

RULES

Army-wide Special Rules

Sagas – Characters can take special skills called Sagas. They are said to work similar to the Vampiric Powers used by Vampire Counts. 75hastings69 gave the example that a character with “Saga of the monster killer” (made up name) may be better at killing Monstrous Creatures, but would suffer a drawbacks such as needing to kill a certain number of them per game.

Wolf Claws – The Space Wolf version of Lightning Claws, allow you to choose to either re-roll “to hit” or “to wound”.

Special Characters

-Logan Grimnar: No news yet

-Ragnar Blackmane: No news yet

-Njal Stormcaller: No news yet, but would share the Rune Priest standard rules.

-Ulrik the Slayer: No news yet, but would share the Wolf Priest standard rules.

-Canis Wolfborn: Mounted on a large cybernetically enhanced Fenrisian wolf. Wears Power Armour and has a pair of Wolf Claws. Canis also allows you to take two cavalry choices, either wolves, or more Marines on wolves.

-Bjorn the Fellhanded: Early rumours reported Bjorn would have AV14 all around, but these have been thrown into disrepute recently.

Special Characters will likely have prescribed (maybe unique) Sagas attached to them.

HQ

-Wolf Lords: May take up to two Sagas. They will have a wide variety of weapon options. May possibly be able to make one unit of Wolf Guard a Troops choice.

-Wolf Priests: Combines the skills of Codex Marines’ Chaplain and Apothacary. Armed with Power weapon, Iron Wolf Amulet (4+ Inv) and Healing Balms and Potions as standard. Will allow units to re-roll “to hit” and also confer Fearless and Feel no Pain on any unit they join. May take up to one saga.

-Rune Priests: Armed with Force Weapon and able to take Space Wolf Specific psychic powers. May take up to one Saga.

-Iron Priests: Will most likely be brought in line with Codex Techmarines. May take up to one Saga. It is unclear if they will be HQ or Elite.

ELITES

-Wolf Guard/Terminators: May take a Wolf Guard Battle Leader who will be able to take up to one Saga.

-Wolf Scouts: Will supposedly remain the same and gain the option be mounted in a Land Speeder Storm

-Lone Wolf: A one-man unit that will be “really strong” and act similar to Tyranid Lictors

-Wulfen: Possibly a "Legion of the Damned" style Unique choice, or maybe something based on HQ selection. It is unclear if they will appear at all.

TROOPS

-Blood Claws: Have supposedly been re-worked in respect to "Berserk Charge" to make them 5th Edition compatible. May take a Wolf Guard as a squad leader.

-Grey Hunters: Rumoured to be able to take a second special weapon in their squads. May take a Wolf Guard as a squad leader.

TRANSPORTS

-Rhino: No news yet

-Razorback: No news yet

FAST ATTACK

-Blood Claws Skyriders: Blood Claws with Jump Packs.

-Land Speeder: No news yet

-Land Speeder Storm: Likely Added

-Bikes/Attack Bikes: No news yet

HEAVY SUPPORT

-Long Fangs: May possibly receive some sort of special rule allowing them to move and fire, but not assault. May take a Wolf Guard as a squad leader.

-Land Raider: Crusader and Redeemer most likely added. Also rumours of a unique Land Raider variant, possibly with three twin-linked Assault Cannon.

-Predator: No news yet

-Whirlwind: No news yet

-Vindicator: No news yet

-Leman Russ Exterminator: Almost certainly removed

~Bigred here. Standard caveats apply to all of this until we have a copy of the codex in hand, and special thanks goes out to The Dude for putting together the latest of his famed roundups. In particular I'll be eagerly awaiting this "saga" concept, and seeing what they have done to make Long Fangs viable on a 5th edition tabletop.

GW looking at supporting again?

If you have been following my series on Epic:Armageddon, you will already have read about mine and others' lamentation regarding GW's apparent lack of enthusiasm for their Specialist Games products.

It's because of this apparent lack of enthusiasm that I was more than a little surprised to learn about the new Epic displayat Warhammer World in the UK.

EpicUK display case

Apparently, the awesome blokes over at EpicUK (you guys rule! keep up the great work!) were approached by GW representatives earlier this year about hosting "an exhibition of the best EPIC tournament armies seen at EPIC UK events".

Matthew Otter, EpicUK Chairman, writes "EPIC UK have [sic] been in talks with Games Workshop to see if we can hold another EPIC display in the future and it all looks hopeful".
