Новости и слухи прошлых лет (2008-2011)

[Lastman]

Dear Valued Customers,

There is an old curse you might know: “May you live in interesting times “

I would be very surprised if anyone could look around our tiny world today and not ponder the truism of such a simple remark. There is very little doubt that these current days would certainly qualify as interesting.

Among many other concerns the world has been struggling with the rising cost of energy, transport, and materials. These rising costs have ultimately affected not only the price of gasoline that we put into our tanks, but the price we pay for milk, eggs and cereal. It has also, not surprisingly perhaps, greatly affected the costs for producing miniatures.

Today we are contacting all of our Trade customers globally to announce that due to these rising costs, we too will be raising some of our prices.

We do not do this lightly. We fully understand that the timing of the price rise directly conflicts with our annual July price review and for that we deeply apologize. I hope that you understand that this price rise is not something Games Workshop Global desires to do, it is something we have to do.

That being said, we wish to approach this change with the same dedication to customer service that we do for every endeavor. So for clarity and fairness I offer the following points:

We are contacting our Trade customers this week to prepare them for any questions they may have.

On Monday August 25th a message informing end hobbyists will be placed on all of our websites.

Prices will change September 29th.

A message will appear in our October White Dwarf.

The price increase will affect part of our paint and hobby ranges, as well as a large portion of our metal models and printed materials.

Even with the pressure of rising costs we are adamant that we will not at this time raise prices on any plastic model kits. Providing high quality, great value kits is fundamental to our corporate strategy and will continue to produce and distribute them at the current prices for as long as we are able.

Sincerely,

Games Workshop

Новости с Колокола

We love to pass on on all the little tidbits we hear and here are some of the latest. We have recieved word that the overall 40k schedule is shaping up for 2009 as follows:

2nd wave Ork

Plastic Gretchin, Stormboys, possible the plastic Battlewagon.

2nd wave Deaemons

Many Independant Characters, Plastic Daemon Prince, etc...

Apocalypse

Lots of chatter out there on this one, but common themes indicate the long-rumored Stompa and one or more Baneblade variants (Stormlord, possibly others) have gotten the green light.

Imperial Guard

These guys are coming with all the same chatter of plastic Stormtroopers, possibly Valkyrie, a new russ variant, and who knows what else.

Necrons

All the stuff reported here.

Превью кодекса Десанта

[Dr Darog]

Собственно, что написали на Колоколе

Everyone else is talking about it so now its our turn. Word is Phil Kelley dropped the news in Los Angeles that much of the updated wargear and equipment changes in the new marine Codex will not be standardized across the other codices.

That means 3+ invulnerable stormshields for the boys in blue, but not the boys in red for example. While I could understand the point of not giving the Black Templars the option of 3pt upgraded stormshields for entire assault squads, it still seems strangely inconsistant across the board. Why 12 vs 10-man Land Raiders for example?

The Space Wolves apparently get off easy as their codex specifically says to refer to Codex: Space marines for much of their wargear.

Бред конечно. Получается СВ в самом кошерно положении, а вот у БА, как я понял, уже ичего не поменяют. БТ и ДА остается кидаться в ГВ разгневанными письмами)

[A7V]

Оригинальная цитатка

Is the new rules for Space Marine equipment going to transfer over to the equipment of the same name for all the other existing Marines?"

Do you mean like Dark Angels? Space Wolves?.....No the Codex books are completely discrete. So even though it may seem a bit wierd that these SM have this, these SM have that. You'll remember these guys have been forging their own path in the 41st Millenium for thousands and thousands of years and they do have slightly different wargear, doctrines and even belief systems within the different Space Marine Chapters. So they do remain discrete from each other. And also it goes back to what I was saying earlier about the normal Codex guys they need some loving too, not just all the whacky stuff 'round the outsides. So um, yeah, just think of them as completely discrete.

Затеи Форжа (Сайт)

Occupying an enormous stand in Hall 1, Forge World will be showcasing a host of fantastic new stuff at this year's event. Not only will they be showing off two brand new books: The Siege of Vraks part II and their brand new Model Masterclass book, but they will also be showing off a mob of new Ork stuff, an exciting new Land Raider variant, and a special Chaos project codenamed: B.O.B. As ever, they will be releasing their designers from the studio for the day, so you can pick their brains about what wild and wacky projects they are currently working on.

First, Forgeworld showed some shots of their upcoming Masterclass book at LA Gamesday, and an intrepid player (Warseer's ALF) was waiting and ready to go with his camera.

Запоздалая новость, но вроде бы никто об этом не сообщал:

Если вы не обращали внимания, то замечу, что из продажи в британском он-лайн магазине пропал кадианский бэтлфорс.

Это связано с тем, что теперь из него исчезнет спруйка со зданиями, однако весь остальной набор, как и его цена останется прежним...

Источник информации Cadian Battleforce Box Changes

Скорее всего он снова появится в продаже как только напечатают новые коробки, на которых не будут нарисованы руины зданий.

Games Day UK Sneak Peaks!

First up we have some very early previews at some new models which we are hoping to have at Games Day UK in very limited quantities. These models cannot be reserved and they aren`t available for pre-order yet either. So, the only way you will be able to buy these models for now is at the show!

Imperial Armour Model Masterclass Volume 1 - Советую всем посмотреть!

The first book of its kind produced by Forge World, Imperial Armour Model Masterclass has been many months in the making and something of a labour of love for its principle writers, Forge World designers Phil Stutcinkas and Mark Bedford. Two of the premier modellers in their fields, with a wealth of modelling experience under their belts, Mark is a multi-Golden Demon winner, while Phil has won the prestigious `Best of Show` award at Euro Militaire 2006.

The book is a 124 page full colour hardback intended for experienced hobbyists and goes into detail about numerous advanced modelling and painting techniques for making your Warhammer 40,000 models truly something special. This volume focuses on Imperial and renegade vehicles and contains in-depth sections and stage by stage guides on projects such as a the Renegade Medusa, a Cadian Stormsword, and dioramas such as the Krieg D-Battery Artillery Emplacement, the Imperial Typha-4 Airbase and the huge Siege of Vraks battle board. There is a real wealth of information in here, and I`m sure the book will be of interest to just about anyone involved in the hobby, I know it`s certainly opened my eyes to some new techniques!

We will have copies of Imperial Armour Model Masterclass available at Games Day UK and the book will be available for pre order after the show. £26.00

имхо, очень удачный заменитель кхорнитского Грейтер демона, особенно учитывая то, что стоит вардемон в 2 раза дешевле, чем форджевский бладтирстер :)
