Hi!

CS, 40k are really all that ficticious or "original". A land raider is just a british WWI tank and a leman russ a larger version of the french renault, so comparing them with 6mm of those makes these models pretty big.

If thats too "apples and oranges" compare to battletechs line which is 7-8 mm and you'll find epic vehicles that size of greater.

Epic infantry however, still remains at a 6mm scale.

JUST GOT THE F/W NL ! ?New 40K Eldar Scorpion II is out (preorder) and will be released in Epic scale sometime in the future (?), by S/G in metal. And it looks a lot like the Epic scale one we saw on the S/G site ! ? Very interesting ... :blues:

Hi guys, waiting for my plane at the moment, so thought I?d check out what I?ve missed to waste a few minutes ? You've been busy as usual I see!

Anyway, back in topic;
Will hayes is the man behind the new Epic Super heavies which are being produced by the SG team. As we well know, he is also the man behind a lot of the 40K scale stuff to be produced by FW. Thus he is making 40K scale versions of all the new tanks at the same time that he makes the 6mm ones (The 40K versions to be made in resin by FW). They should be pretty much dead on representations of each other seeing as he can adjust them both according to how things look in either scale. So no worries about hundreds of different Mks of Eldar vehicles :D

As I said in the Hell Talon post, just so S/G & F/W don't make the same models, like the did with much of the IG and even the Eldar, I'll be satisfied.  With all the armies in Epic - 7 (incl. Tau) then Necrons ('08?) and maybe more in the future, there is no reason for Tony C. and the boyz to make more IG/41st Reich models ! :angry:  :blush:  :laugh:  :D  :;):

Hi!

I wonder what other chaos models they'll make, the talon is the first one. Some chaos titan variants would be nice.

Some Chaos tanks too, and other vehicles that look useable instead of festooned with decorations from some Hallowe'en party.

As for the Scorpion, I can't say I'm a big fan of it... it just seems a little oddball. Why the cuts into the curves? They're starting to look just a tiny bit like scythes, and that's not cool, IMHO.

Time to stcok up on the older SHTs, maybe in exchange for the cheesey looking Chaos engines I have.

The PDF files for Swordwind have been posted on the E:A website. I suggest to have a look, since depicted in the files there is also a good chunk of the Eldar range to be released next year by GW.

I haven't read everything, but I like what I've seen so far : lots of fluff detail, very nice layout... Hopefuly there will be more expansions to come.

Just too bad that they haven't had the time to shoot pics of all the new models yet.

It's funny though. When looking through the De Aynes gallery I suddenly realized that I like the new style Revenant much better than any of the previous versions. Seeing the neew pics in the book only confirms me in that thought. I gotta get me a couple of those  :cool:

I only skim read the pages so I could be mistaken but haven't they missed the Feral Ork madboyz stats somewhere?

All in all I think it looks awsome. It just makes it so much cooler that it is one of the prizes in the painting comp.

Cheers!  :)
