I, for one, am fine with the "Limited Edition" thing.    Consider the scorn we fans have heaped on GW over the last decade or so for releasing games, then not supporting them or dropping them altogether.  By telling the consumer up front not to expect any support or expansions, GW are doing the honest thing, which I appreciate.  I'd be royally pissed-off if I bought a game expecting expansions like Deathwing, or Orks, or whatever, and they never came... This way, I pays my $100, I knows what I get. As my friends in the UK say, "It does exactly what it says on the tin."

Litko has a nice collection of corridors, too, though it is somewhat pricey.

I'm really surprised by the "ho-hum" reaction of some GW gamers over the release.  The newb fanboys are just calling it an "old game" while even some seasoned players recently commented to that it was a boring game!  OMG, are they talking about the same game here even?  Maybe second edition SH, LOL.

Boring? Maybe I'm a masochist, but I've loved every single game. I am pretty sure that I have yet to win a game, but still, by great golly gosh! It is a stonker of a game! Pure and unadulterated stonker! It is whiz, fab and groovy. Funkadelic, majestic, awesomo and grand.

In other words, I'm a raving fanboy.

Anyone know what set of rules it's based on? I've ordered a copy already but consensus seems to be 1st edition rules were far superior.

It looks like it might be a reworked 1st edition with assault cannons and libbys for I believe the deathwing expansion.

Since a timer and a Librarian are included, I'm guessing it's based on 1st edition. I certainly hope so.

Judging from the pictures this is definitely not 28mm ...

Seems to be a new article on the GW site about the box contents today:

Cool! It looks there are several different Terminators, unlike 1st edition which had only one pose.

Yeah, apparently every Terminator is a different sculpt, which is very cool...

I rang my local GW today, as they have a shop copy; they said the minis were the normal size. But I still want to see them for myself!

Really? In Germany:
1st Edition: No idea
2nd Edition: about 50€ (exactly it was 99DM, and 1€ is worth 1.95something of the old DM)
3rd Edition: 78€

So for me it's a more dramatic price increase.

But if you don't get it, think of how sorry you will be later than you didn't!  I may buy a second copy too.

When was second edition released? Remember you also have to calculate inflation ...
