Quote (Shadow Hunter @ 06 2003 Nov.,10:52) | They're nice. ?I was expecting all the marine stuff to be Templars first before other chapters. | Eh? The landspeeder Typhoon isn't specific to any chapter. And based on the current Templars list, the only units that will need new models are the Land Raider crusader, and neophyte bikers.

I was going by colours. I had seen a load of black templar marines, so thought that the marines would be in that colour scheme upon release. However these two were in dark green, like Dark Angels (although their landspeeder would be black if it were raven guard).
The good thing about not being black, is that its easier to spot details.

Ah ok, I was thinking of the models not the paint schemes. I would guess they will have pictures of models from several different marine chapters. The pictures on the Epic site of the new SM vehicles were from several different chapters.

It is used at the shows he's present at so has been seen quite a lot, but its not a "studio" force as such.

I think the Studio Armies are supposed to be Black Templars and Salamanders (hence the green speeder). As I recall they've got green terminators too (eg. no Death Wing)

To give some background, I'm editor of the unofficial Blood Bowl fanzine House Rulez. In a few months time I'm going to go to GW HQ at Lenton and interview him about Blood Bowl, as well as speak to the rest of the Fanatic people. Although the vast majority of my time will be spent discussing BB, it'd be rude not to talk about his latest baby (aka Epic )
What I'd like is a list of questions you'd like me to put to him, assuming I get the time. Questions like "why wont you release Tau in 2005 ??" will be ignored - GW's release schedule & policy is clear, so more useful questions only please
The online Blood Bowl community doesn't even know abuot this yet, as it isn't announced until February, so if any of you reading this also frequent the BB sites then I'd appreciate some discretion before I make my announcement
So what are your burning questions for the big man himself? I appreciate he does frequent the GW forums a lot, but there must be things you want answers for... (doesn't have to be Epic but it'd help)

What his impressions where of the playtesting of Epic: A. Postive, negative, what could have been different. Will it be a model used for all specialist games.

...and the usual questions of what goodies he can reveal of planned models: Capitol Imperialis, Hellbore, Mars pattern Warlords (insert desired model here).
More seriously: Perhaps elaborate on his thoughts on the proposed Adeptus Titanicus III and Air War games?
Cheers!

What varient Space Marine and Imperial Guard lists do you have planned, and what new models will be released to accompany them?
Are there still plans to make a "non-tounament" Squat list for older players to use for fun?
Do you see Epic returning to it's former place of glory in the top three GW games?
Just some random thoughts
Cheers
Chris

It's already been announced that the E:A GT is in 2005 but the WPS is running one this May. Sadly, the WPS one is far too close to the Blood Bowl GT for anyone to make it (hint hint)

Will it be possible for Fanatic to release "Booster packs" of titan weapons, like the Inquisitor conversion weapon packs- imho this would seem a relativly simple fix to the costs problems Jervis has mentioned (although I probably don't know what I'm talking about.. lol ) ?

As the odd person round here may know - I don't play anything but Epic.
I have been in contact with WPS about the event in May, the slight hiccup being that it is a Club Challenge and I am not a member of a club.
Ta very much for the message , though.
