THE GOOD
Games Workshop decided to impulse a big
revolution in it's paints. They removed all their actual production
and gived us all new shiny paints.
Every player with a full painted army
will ask this question to its retailer : "does it change
anything ?" Yes, it changes ! Names aren't the same, new paints are brighter and last but not least, the colors aren't
exactly the same...
This is why I decided to
stock as much Orkhide Shade as I could, I have a 3000 points
Dark Angels army and I want to keep painting it with this particular color.
On the other side,the reds seems to be brighter. And clearly, I agree with this. I changed the highlights I made on the red parts because I founded them too dark. These new paints will help me.
And last but not least, these new paints are coming with Dark Angels minis. (source: apocalypse40k) And it means the Dark Angels are back. And that's really good !
THE BAD
With all the pre-Heresy stuff Forge World gave us, I was impatiently waiting for pre-HH terminators. But...
But the new termis aren't the one we can see in the Horus Heresy books series. These are "Tartaros pattern terminator armor". Awwww...
I know I won't buy it. The Mk IV look is pretty cool, but the "terminator" look isn't here.
THE UGLY
Grey Knights and Bllod angels are the first Space Marine chapters with a real flying machine: the Flying brick Stormraven.
When the Storm Eagle appeared in the last days of march, I tought it was a joke. The Forge World Open Day was annouced for the 1st april, so it had to be an april's fool, right?

It wasn't. And it seems to be the result of an alliance between a Stormraven and a Tau Devilfish. And I don't like the result.
Forge World, how can you give Space Marine players such an ugly plane thing, when you can create this amazing flying machine to the Imperial Guard players? The Avenger seems to come from my dreams! It's so amazing that, even if I'm not an IG player, I'll buy one for my own pleasure.
