Book 8 Malevolence confirmed to be White Scars and Blood Angels.

Book 9 retains the name Angelius and will focus on the Thamas Crusade and Dark Mechanicum.

Angelus pushed back to the next book. Dark Angels cut. :laffo:

How the gently caress they gonna focus partially on the Thramas Crusade and not include the DAngels in it?

Thramas won't be in Malevolence. They're covering Signus (BA/Demons) and Chondax (WS/Alpha Legion). Thramas will be in Angelus which is now pushed to book IX.

There is no way upside-down bolt pistols were intentional. This has to be a gently caress up.


Looking at them, there's a pretty clear dividing line where the casing doesn't line up. How the gently caress did these get through? Complete with painted versions?

:psydwarf:


The Space Wolf releases have been this cavalcade of bad sculpts. Ignoring the fur everyone complains about, they've managed to forget the grip on the praetor's gun and now have somehow managed to create upside down barrels. This is just what Space Wolf players deserve.

I would also still appreciate some danger.



The real clincher is that the bayonette lug is on top. There's absolutely no way that's on purpose.

Got a few questions for those people who actually give forgeworld money.

Are you still charged VAT taxes at this time? I know officially they aren't out of the EU but wondering if they backed that part out now.
Are you pretty much charged the same amount using Paypal versus buying Virtual Gift Vouchers?
Is the paypal currency conversion fee pretty small vs. general bank transactions?

I can match/exceed the needed amount for free shipping but the additional fees are killing my desire for more mans. So far it looks like between VAT and Sales, I'm paying 30% of my total which is bonkers. Any ideas?

Don't really have recaster access though so short of basically poop socking it on Ebay it seem like I don't have much of a choice but to go direct.

FW definitely applies a sales tax to my orders, but it's less than 10%.

I'm in the US too and last time I bought stuff (2 year ago) there was a 20% VAT tax for shipping out of the UK. Sales tax is like 7.7% which I don't really care about; It's the VAT that really eats the budget.

Basically I am trying to figure out if I can get both a Doredo and a leviathan or just stick with a Leviathan. I'd rather have both but if VAT is still there, then I'll have to either wait a bit longer or just go with one.

Doesn't include VAT in the total until WAY later in the process. So you see sales tax but not VAT.

It was designed from scratch. It was an intentional choice. People claiming otherwise have no evidence or way to prove that this was a mistake and forge World themselves have said it was intentional.

That’s about 8% which is what my last FW this past month was charged for tax. Didn’t have any additional VAT. If you’re in the US and got charged VAT then that sounds like a website gently caress up.
