It's certainly up there as the worst model GW released, though I'm sure others can find other terrible, terrible models (this piece of crap being a close contender).

They seem to have forgotten the front half of that car.

It stops, reverses the wheels on one side, and spins in place like a cheap rc car.

As long as we're doing the 40k thread thing and immediately devolvinng into lore chat:

In all the 11 million pieces of written words on 40k, has anyone ever talked about chaos dudes that aren't soldiers? Is there some khornate mechanic that gets really angry at the gaps he's welding shut and the screws he needs to tighten? A Nurgle doctor that fixes dudes up after the fighting is over and gives them a few new friends inside them to boot? Nurgle butchers that only sell meat well past its date?

I feel there is some very tappable stuff for chaos society while it's just chilling in the warp being all chaos-y

So a space marine ship that carries a fraction of the full chapter carries a number of soldiers equal to 50 times the number of marines in the entire chapter?

Sci fi numbers, ladies and gentlemen.

Well, the lp got me to give the game a spin.

I discovered 2 things

1: holy poo poo, whoever mentioned the dreadnought dlc missions were tough was right. Those things are suicide missions before you unlock the tank

2: if a plot critical character dies on the last tick of plague for the exact amount of health they had it's game over man. No free restart on campaign critical missions like firaxcom.

The dlc stuff definitely doesn't feel as smoothly integrated as the firaxcom stuff eventually got. A lot of it feels like it's in the dlc zone separate from the normal stuff ala gatecrasher or shen's last gift.

Did Ectar say he was going to finish off the rest of the enemies himself? There was about five plague marines left before you rushed the final objective, Ectar must be a complete badass and we never get to see it.

Ectar isn't allowed to leave the ship, which is why the player gets promoted to commander instead of him despite seniority issues. (Ignore the fact that we also don't leave the ship). Presumably, he's ordering either a bombardment from the ship to get the baddies or a wave of unimportant soldiers and not the commanders' elite crew to take care of them

The vindicare vs space marine animations discussion made me realize it had a lot of parallels to the opening chase of casino Royale. You've got the vindicare vaulting around all nimble doing parkour poo poo, and then a space marine goes and just bulldozes through the obstacles to accomplish the same end through pure force
