I believe you are correct, Storm.

I remember seeing the terrain and CI on Jimbo's site before.

And send me your address... the G/W order may get here today. I'm going to call them now! :D

...I think its actually Carl Woodrow's (Dropship40000); at least it looks like one of his excellent GD city boards its stitting on... ?

You're right, it is the work of Carl Woodrow, the photo is one of many I took at GamesDay 2001.

That was one of the best demonstration games I have ever seen (and I have seen a lot).

I'll be making a DKoK army for sure, in due course...

However, rather than the Prussian/German style- I'll be doing mine in a French WW1 style of light and dark blue uniforms.  And before you say "get them in tactical colours" L4, that WAS the tactical colour of the day!  :)

That way, its a but different to my WW2 German style line IG army, and will be my little bit of homage to the French at Verdun which I visited last year and was in awe of.  Until then, most of my WW1 knowledge had been Aust/Brit orientated around the Sommes and Yres.

I have a lot of different types of 6mm artillery from ww1 to sci-fi.  To add more to the haphazard WW1 style of preesing everything into srevice, I'll be using a mix oif everything!

Plus a CI can cross a trench with no problems! :;):

IIRC, those CI stats were the most recent before it was removed from the list.

Latest rumor is that it will come out with a Cadian list, which is presumably the Chaos supplement.  Of course, that doesn't line up with the 2005 date, so who knows at this point?

Quite aware of the WW1 color schemes, Sailor :D ...

The French had a predilection for "Horizen" or "Azure" Blues (I have the Osprey books! :laugh: )! ?

I would have loved to have seen the Verdun Battlefield ... over 300,000 died on per side, talk about a Death Korps! :blues: ?

But we can hope/think/assume that someday they will make a new CI!?!? ???

Well, we like blue....and white for that matter!

Even in 1/300 scale, thats a lot of stands and plastic.
Even primarch couldnt do that....yet (dont dare him!)

But we can hope/think/assume that someday they will make a new CI!?!? ???


Would that make an awesome scarch building project- maiking a WW1 style CI from old German Mk VII and Brit Mk IV style shapes.  Now I know what I'll do if they scrape the new CI release plan....

Ah yes, blue & white are traditional naval colors! :;): ?

And Don't let Primarch hear anything about 600,000 + figures! It could push him over the edge! :o ?

And I've got a Micro Machine Sand Crawler that is as big as the G/W CI. I'm going to use it as a Squat CI. And one a little smaller than a Leviathan, that's in my BA Trans pool! :D

The stats were the lastest version before it was removed from the list. The E:A rules haven't changed much since the CI was removed, so those stats should work fine under the current rules.

Also the CI was 0-1 per army and costs 500 points.

Seems webspace is down ATM so you can't see the image :\. Should be back within a day.

My friend Simon did something similar with his Imperial Guard



taken from my battle reports pages - http://www.ifelix.co.uk/phoepic_b08_a.html

and it seems to work quite well.
