I think I could use the current Ork Flakwagons minus the gun for this, or perhaps convert a turret of some sort to give it an obvious offensive weapons.

I think it's better they do this than throw out releases now that will get lost in the shuffle of other GW/FW stuff being released.

Brace yourselves: -------------------------------- Unfortunately we've had to cut back on some of the new sculpts we had planned, as we'd failed to appeciate just how much work was involved simply getting the old Epic range back in production (lots of cleaning up of 'tins' to make new master moulds - boring but necessary work ) This means that some models like the Capitol Imperialis and Hellebore that I'd been hoping to remake have had to be knocked back. Don't worry though, we will get round to doing them in the end, it will just take longer than anticipated. -------------------------------- See the full thread here: http://forums.specialist-games.com/epic40k...._ID=242 _________________ Tas My General blog: http://tasmancave.blogspot.com/ My VSF Blog: http://pauljamesog.blogspot.com/ My ECW Blog: http://declaresir.blogspot.com/

Again this is my 4th release of Epic, so don't be surprised... Anything can happen... ? Amazingly G/W US is still spinning up Epic pieces, in some cases back to SM-1. Doh! ? Hang your collective heads in shame G/W UK... _________________ Legion 4 "Cry Havoc, and let slip the Dogs of War !" ...

They're probably not going to do anything about the "moderator problem" either...   Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. _________________ 6mm Sci-fi: http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/6mm ... nWarGames/ My Personal Blog: http://6mm-minis.blogspot.com/

The story with epic since the release of epic40k is one of lack of resources, delays and eternal promises. There is a simple basic business fact in regards to epic, it didn't make make last time around. GW has a LONG memory for this kind of things (why do you think squats were eleiminated?!), Jervis has his hands tied, he doesn't control production or distribution, the bean counters do. I make no comments as to Epic A's value as a game, it may be the best thing since sliced bread, but, as I have stated before, its going nowhere due to the inadequate resource allocation, poor distribution and poor promotion. Epic doesn't fail because any one game system is inherently that bad, its fails because GW produces the conditions for it to fails coming out of the gate. By the way Legion4, you're not allowed to say "I told you so", thats MY line... Primarch _________________ Primarch The Primarchload Magnetized Titans Tutorial Net Epic Gold Heresy Rules

They are, as you said, setting themselves up for failure... again. ? Just so it lasts long enough, so that we can get some good models out of it. But based on recent news, even that seems in doubt... _________________ Legion 4 "Cry Havoc, and let slip the Dogs of War !" ...

Athmos	Post subject: Eldar Scorpion Preview Posted: Fri Sep 05, 2003 4:34 pm
Brood Brother Joined: Sat Aug 09, 2003 1:06 pm Posts: 358 Location: France	I'm sad to have to wait before getting my hand on a Capitol imperialis (this will maybe make me think again about making a scratch built one, but i wonder what to use for tracks). Still, i think this is one of the best effort we may have seen to re-make or make useable agin some old minis that new player don't even know existed one time (and some i reaaaaly like, concerning the CI at least). About E:A marketing and support, the only thing i can say is that there is absolutely nothing in france about that. The name was mentioned in an answer in the "reader's mail" in the last french WD, as a player asked for french edition and support of BFG and Epic, and that's all. I have printed myself the rules of the game to give to my GW shop, and nobody wasn't even aware it was planned. This said, maybe the game isn't planned for france (if it's not planned to be available in OZ, as it require translation for French release, i would not be that surprised if the game isn't even available here...). Had you seen some advertisment or whatever in UK/US yet ? Usually (in france that is), there is no ad campaign before the massive rolling fire of ad just before (one month before usually) the release of a game anyway ... Athmos

I can't remember the last time Epic was mentioned in W/D !?   _________________ Legion 4 "Cry Havoc, and let slip the Dogs of War !" ...
