I already own loads of GZG stuff and Ilove it. The epic stuff just has a different feel to it. I guess I wil bite the bullet and buy the FW stuff. (Even the p&p is cheaper, is a price rise due at FW?)

As far as I know all FW's prices have remained unchanged and consistant since they were set up...

I have all the F/W AFVs that they make! ?
ALSO try:
- Adler, - Days of Empire, - Brigade, and - Gladiator sites, too... just more options.
I like choices!

Hi!
No prices rises have been "rumored" for FW epic stuff.
Then again you may want to get some before they decide to get "frisky".

Tough call.
There are very few of us with enough Chimeras.
I convert Hellhound flame tanks into them. I bought a bunch on sale.
Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak.

Quote (primarch @ 09 2004 Feb.,22:54) | You can never have ENOUGH chimeras.
My problem is trying to learn when to stop getting more..... | when after a game you have some left on the table which are not burning...
obvious really, you have enough!
but then again I am an Ork player

Between SM2, E40K and F/W, I have many. ?I don't plan on buying the E:A version unless it is different. ?But from the pics, they look just like the E40K type. ?We also use Gorgons in Mech formations ...

I have a bunch of the chimera variants from SM2 era as well- Chimmerax, Chimmerdon etc. They can add a punch to the otherwise cardboard teeth of your mounted mech formation.

Hi!
Yeah, I really like the chimera variants. They are great support for those tactical guard companies.

Yes, all my SM2, E40K and F/W Chimeras are mixed with each of the release's various versions.
I have them assigned to detachments by release and don't mix SM-2 with E-40K, etc., in the detachments.
But they deploy side by side on the board .. just like "Old Guard," Vals & Cats.

The Chimeras are just too expensive for me to consider at the moment. I am toying with the idea of these guys,
http://www.brigademodels.co.uk/Frames/S ... 0-408.html
Just like the look of them as well as the price. Might clip the gun barrel down a bit, too tank like at the moment.

Yes, I am familiar with the Brigade site and like their models very much. I think that would make an excellent "Chimera", as is. No Problem !
