    As someone who has run 60 Dire Avengers and Asurmen at a tournament, tell that rumour I hate it.

    The rumour also says Rangers are moving to Elites, and with Storm Guardians getting rolled into the basic Guardian profile that would leave Craftworld Eldar with only one troops choice (arguably with Corsairs as second).

    Any way you slice it, that sounds ridiculous to me.

    I think the only way I would be okay with that is with some detachment shenanigans like having an Autarch Warlord in a vanguard detachment changing the command bonus to +3 and giving aspects obsec.

    fake edit: GW selling a campaign book with a swordwind army that does that.

    It's just another Marine HQ model

    The Lion and Leman are tied together to come back it seems
    Vulkan is basically the trump card the harlequins keep in the webway for when they need it
    I am kind of suprised they did not bring back a primarch in the PA era as some of the books hyped up Fulgrim both good and bad till they wrote off the good clone to Trazyn

    I mean yes they need to re-release a gravis captain. The only version is the Dark Imperium one which is now out of print.

    But so boring.

    Also they killed off clone Fulgrim? I haven't read Trayzn.

    I am hoping maybe later this year there is a big EC release with a supplement.

    Doesn't even have to be big.

    Just Lucius and Noise Marines. Get rid of my damn fine cast please.

    That was in a Bile book.

    But that means he is a big ol' Chekov's gun just sitting there waiting to be released.

    Also the Bile books were fantastic, I highly recommend them.

    I'm finally getting around to painting the Space Marine aircraft for Aeronautica Imperialis while I wait for stages of the Ork Mega Bomma to dry. I'm just doing Ultramarines since blue is a color I haven't used much of on any of the AI factions yet. However they look a bit drab so I'm going full 2nd Edition on them and painting all the weapon housing bright red. Need to figure out where to work some bright yellow in too.

    There are a couple on the Storm Eagles and Fire Raptors. None on the fighters though. They need some yellow trim or racing stripes or something.

    All the ones on the box have racing stripes on the wings.

    Salamanders are black for example.

    The box art has them as white but you could do yellow.

    If you have picked up any of the other planes like the Thunderhawk use the decals. They help a lot.

    Paint the canopies as NMM gold. Real cockpits use it:

    and here's a youtube tutorial that uses the color-scheme:

    It needs way more eyes, but amusingly enough the scale looks almost perfect for it to be a Colossal Squig.

    Games Workshop and disappointing everyone by releasing yet another marine model goes hand in hand.

    I had a personal bet that it was a Primaris Lieutenant.

    I pulled the top off with the help of a slightly sharpened guitar pick, then primed black and painted dark green (I can’t remember what the name is but similar to Caliban Green) in the radar panels. I followed with a pin wash of nuln oil and then a light dry brush of a lighter green with a soft brush. I use the Artis Opus style, but with a cheap makeup brush.

    For the white that’s just Celesta Grey and an edge highlight of pure white. I had a sort of happy accident on one where a little of the light green spilled over on the white and I like it a lot, so I’m going to go back and do that on the other panels.

    To finish I’m going to paint in the metal bits and some flood lights with dry brushed OSL.

    So I wasn't originally going to use decals since I still felt burned out on decaling every single Imperial Guard infantry model I had, but I put some on some navy fighters and they looked good so I did them for the rest. I bring this up because I only just now noticed that I did not get the decals with the Marine/Eldar box set and only have the decal sheet that came with the Fire Raptors. I don't need the Eldar decals but I am feeling it on not having enough Ultramarine logos.

    Is there a way to buy more of that decal sheet?

    You get one sheet per plane box. Get a Thunderhawk.

    Also an amazing model.

    The starter box only had general marine and salamander stuff anyway.

    The good news is that the rear covered hatch upgrade kit for the Impulsor makes it looks so much better than the original dumb space El Camino design.

    The bad news is that it pretty much adds $17 to the pricetag of an Impulsor if I ever decide to get any more of them.

    They should make a deal with Namco for some Tau Gunpla, they'd make a killing.

    They’re already partnered with BanDai for some of the action figures they are doing, so…
    That said, those master and perfect grade models are absolutely nuts and I would definitely like to see a Crisis Suit Commander (with full articulation) done up like one of their gundams, but it would cost the same as a Titan.

    ...because dragons are AWESOME! That's why.

    Forgeworld or? As many of the top of the line gunpla kits already cost nearly in excess of 200+

    XV25s are more a battlefield/recon suit, the old XV15 is still preferred by some veterans for infiltration missions, according to the 3rd ed book.
