I didn't know that their quality is fucked up with the time. I remembered the models very expensive but of high quality

Their plastic and white metal models usually were of high quality. Apparently now they decided to introduce mass produced resin models and it's not working out that well.

 

[Destroid]

Yep, they switched all their metal to resin citing rising costs, then increased the prices lol. There is currently a raging nerdstorm of titanic proportions.

 

[Morkar Left]

Holy shit ALL their metal? You're kidding?

 

[Paperclip]

They also don't appear to be accurate size, unless that is a gigantic woman.

She'd have to be near 6.5 feet/2 meters to be around their (Minimum?) general height, so yeah, either pretty big or someone just didn't look into their SM stuff.

Huh you're right but I'm glad that they did it though. I really hope that there would be some romantic situations between the two. Wouldn't happen if she was a midget.

I wouldn't mind rising prices if they will fix the quality. Resin will be much more comfortable to use than white metal due to lower weight.

What figures are you using that are too heavy of all things?

Their casting quality has been shit for years, partly because they're produced in such high volume their moulds get fucking hammered. The chaos dread for example is warped to fuck. I had massive flash and alignment issues with the harry the hammer Limited ED.

I've decided that white metal is just a shit material period, night and day difference with lead alloys.

Holy shit ALL their metal? You're kidding?

Apparently all their metals were pulled, they'll probably melt that shit down and sell it to china.

I wouldn't mind rising prices if they will fix the quality.

Resin is a cheaper material than tin, the price rise is known internally as "THE ANNUAL PRICE RISE"

It's just easier to assemble lighter models on a tray and move it around, also it's easier to situate lighter models on uneven surfaces.

Or maybe ask Blizzard to do a WH40K game

they did want to do a games workshop game

warhammer fantasy in fact

they decided to make up their own completely different setting called warcraft after that didn't work out

Good thing you ducked - that was going to hit you right in the face.

Better try through the Chaos building thing.

What?

I'll take Ultramarines over questionable canon Blood Ravens all the fucking time.

Anyway, why can't these fuckheads realize that IG is the most awesome and use them more. I wouldn't mind SoB returning either.

 

[Jick Magger]

I don't like the Ultramarines because they're blue.
Bright Blue armies just piss me the hell off.
Now bright red armies, that's where shit is at.
It also doesn't help that the UM have basically been turned into GM's wank rag, and thusly get the most fluff-presence while all the other chapters are shoved aside.
Say what you want about the Space Wolves, at least they have a relatively unique and interesting design aesthetic. How they stay alive and not declared traitor for having blatant mutations and worshipping pagan gods is admittedly beyond me, though.

Anyway, why can't these fuckheads realize that IG is the most awesome and use them more. I wouldn't mind SoB returning either.

Space Marines as an army choice are far more accessible to new players (they can basically be molded to any type of play-style), their appearance is striking and far more likely to lure in potential players, one of the founding army choices in Warhammer 40,000, have some of the more iconic units in the game, most of the units are fairly easy to paint, etc.

 

[Esquilax]

I don't know much about WH40K aside from root's fucking awesome interactive fiction LP, but if he says Ultramarines suck, then I will show solidarity with my bro and say that they suck.

 

[GarfunkeL]

Huh, I knew that about IG Regiments but I must have missed the lore-snippets where mixed regiments were shown. Oh well.

 

[Commissar Draco]

Never belived I woud not be intrested in WH40 game, but it's just popamole with smurfs.
Why Relic hates IG? Unlike Space fagots we do have steel balls.

well bro just like turn based secretly wants to be real time all IG trooper secretly want to be astartes

as they come down in their mighty thunderhawks and charge past as you hold your lasgun and shiver, you whisper to your sergeant with tears in your eyes: "The Emperor protects."

Space Marines - PC heroes of the millennium
IG - forever npcs

 

[Commissar Draco]

now they actually come at you with their flying land raiders and flying librarian dreadnoughts and power-armoured power-armor and their Spiritual Liege

RT combat + check points + auto healing which makes any notions of tactics useless So they have to bring moar lulz to make it more inovative (read closer to CoD). Partly becouse average (console0 gamer has reflex and skill of pregnat fly compared to cannon Spacemarine. BTW Gameplay looks same shit as DN forevever, DN however is still something funny (but far below original)

Yeah and I want to be a dragon. Achieving more with the less is more satisfing in the end if you're not one of 12th years old KWA consoltards.

It's throu hardship, conflict and strife the culture achieve it's full potential.

What autohealing?

 

[Darth Roxor]

What autohealing?

Shield regen, which is not quite autohealing, but still autohealing, and retarded from 40k perspective.

Yeah I noticed that shield regen in the video too but I'm holding back from making judgment because I'm not sure the mechanic is necessarily what we think on first impression. Honestly never read anything about a shield system in the game before E3, so I'll have to do some research.

This preview says that shield regen is the same as health regen (in that it only regens if you kill more enemies), but who knows if that's just journalist bs.

What happened to "breaking through cover," btw? That marketing line hasn't been used in a while.
