The new Iron Hands (!!) models look interesting.. and the Witch Hunter Penitent Engine.. superb; very 'Gothic' and weird...

Well, 3 things:

1) it is Iron Hands, not Raven Guard ;) I really like the dude that is in the bottom left in the inquisitor display. Dunno what it is exactly, but it looks cool :)

2) OOT: the new troops for Lord of the Rings made me think about the rip off of the Return of the King movies. if they display the same things that I am seeing as miniatures I am gonna puke. Mordor Uruk Hai!?!??!!? What a blasphemy. Frodo and Sam disguissed as orcs?!?!?!?! *Pukes*

3) OOT2: PEGASUS BRETONIAN RIDERS!?!?!? Ouch!! I suppose they will be an elite rare unit souped up. In any case it is a pitty they decided to armour the pegasus. They would have been cool as mosters for other armies otherwise, like using the pegasus as Eagles in a High Elf and Wood Elf army. Getting a catapult for the bretonians is the most unfluffy thing I have seen in ages according to the new version of the bret fluff that GW decided to take. Previously they were middle age Cads, as usual, and it would be perfectly justifyed, but in their current official fluff a catapult duoes not fit. At least from my point of view.


Health and a lot of sixes,

Xavi

What is interesting is that the SoB's are listed as Witch Hunters. With other rumours around that the force is not going to get a full update, it looks like these ladies will appear as a part of the Witch Hunters force. An interesting idea. I think that I like it.

Cheers Xavi... I was a little tired when I posted that.. dear me... :blush:

Oh, and when I was reading some stuff from a GamesDay a while back, I recall hearing that Alessio C disagreed with the inclusion of the catapult too... think it might have been a report on DakkaDakka?  ???
