Anyone else have the original horus heresy board game? With the fantastic pub game for boarding the flagship published in white dwarf? :)

Yes, I saw those pics ... but it really gives you no indication of size ... 6mm would be cool ... But I'm guessing closer to 10-12mm or even 15 ...  The Titans may be the size of Epic Knights ?  The 3-D terrain is nice too. I'm guessing it will be around $65 + or - ...   And yes, I have the game published in an old W/D ... about the boarding of Horus's Barge. It was called Warmaster.  Kind of cool !   We played it using SH tiles and Epic figs too ...  :cool:

I have the board game and the WD mentioned. I was looking at playing it for fun again and now I see this come out.

FF is a great company for quality products. I am glad that they are the ones that were able to pick up the rights to produce these games.

Hm. Interesting. The miniatures are of course more beer & pretzel standard in terms of detail, but they might be an interesting base for conversions. That chaos titan could be turned into a nice Chaos Knight for example.

I too am a big fan of the White Dwarf Warmaster game.
I saw this today on TGN and immediately grabbed for my wallet because it felt like someone was taking $100 out of it.  Damn. Too many toys, too little money.

If only they were "heroic 6mm" in scale...
