To be fair even at work when I did a training webinar to the rest of the team world wide every month, I looked at the viewing figures and no matter what time we did it, we only hit max numbers like 15 minutes or so after we started broadcasting, and I was trying to convince the manager in charge to let me just pad out the first 15 minutes with nonsense but he didn't let me, so as a result half the viewers just missed 25% of the information.

To give them 15 minutes of buffer to deal with any potential tech problems before the actual reveal starts.

To be fair, everybody knows the first 15 minutes are filler so there's no point in tuning in on time.

Not designed as a "starter set". It's designed for existing players to expand an army with stuff from the new edition. Interesting approach. I wonder if there will also be a new starter box with stuff that you might want to actually begin an army with?

All those models plus a full size rulebook sort of justifies the £120 rumoured price tag to be honest.

$150 freedombux really does look like a good deal. I mean, 3 small marines on bike are still $50 for some stupid reason.

And oddly enough still very popular as I've come to realize this week. Turns out trying to score a single of the old bikes new on sprue decent cheap isn't easy. (Even if I'm sure its because the swedish warhammer second hand market is hosed.)

Maybe? I don't like Spess Mehreens or Crons but BVMTH wants to paint everything gold and it's better on those two armies than the more Inq28 =I=/Chaos Cultist/GSC stuff I'm (very very slowly) trying to build?

The Primaris ATV looks rad.


Also kinda hilarious at that shot but still pretty rad.

Although Necron Chungus is pretty great as well.

I guess I'm preordering it after all. Shame; I was looking forward to being all sensible and waiting a few months and buying it at retail discount this time.

Also, that ATV looks like they took the combat role of the old attack bike and went "We cannot make a sidecar look cool, let's do something else."

(Ironically you can make an attack bike sidecar look cool... by attaching it to a ForgeWorld Outrider bike. I've seen it done!)
