I don't care if you're off topic. It's not like this is a dedicated board.
I agree about the "crossovers" in the GW-verse. In many cases I find them incredibly goofy. For example, why do the White Scars have to have a mongol horse-rider theme because someone years ago made up the name "Jhagathai Khan" for their primarch (or whatever it is)? Same for stuff like "Mortarion" for the Death Guard and "Sanguinius" for Blood Angels.
The crimes on historical issues was covered in brutal detail a couple weeks ago, so I'll pass on that one.
Anyway, I think they need some better writing. They should hire me.

You can use me as a reference, Neal, if you go for a G/W writer job !

Heh.
I went for one, and after I sent in my package of resume, samples, and references, they changed the freakin' job description. Not that they bothered to tell me that. It was only after several weeks of non-response from the HR department that I happened to check the online job postings and saw what they had done.
After that, I decided that if their HR department is that much of a hassle to deal with, it wasn't a great loss on my part. I started to apply for a copy writer job that was also posted and decided not to bother.

Hi,
Very nice, shall have to see how much the army I've been planning is gonna cost. Won't be cheap though. Some cool stuff for the other Spec Games too on the advance order page. Hopefully we Brits won't be too far behind on this stuff. 
Cheers, Freshmetal

Interesting, wonder where all the "new" vehicles went?
They had masters, maybe they changed their minds.

That's only part of the range, though... The whole range was supposed to be 23 blisters/boxes, IIRC.
My biggest disappointments : - Rangers being plastic (I kind of expected this one, but since I intend to play Alaitoc, metal Rangers would have been cool as I already own lots of Aspects and Guardians) - Price of the Wave Serpent : 11? for a pack of 2 is actually more expensive than FW, which price their WS at 7? (a bit under 11?) for 3 ! - Old Exarchs on the plastic sprue, nuff said.
I think new and Aspect-specific Exarchs are coming in the Avatar & Court of the Young King blister, no ?

And if you havn't seen UK White Dwarf 301, there's pics of the Serpent and Cobra too - scaled down versions of the new 40K Forgeworld models. I LIKE the Cobra...
