Forgeworld New Releases - Machrius Omega and Sneak Peeks!

Posted by Loken at 1/06/2012 10:09:00 PM

From Forgeworld:

Macharius Omega

While the sins of innovation and initiative are frowned upon by the Adeptus Mechanicus, new patterns and designs of weapons and armoured vehicles are still created. The Macharius Omega is one such vehicle, created with a single focus, that of the battlefield deployment of the Omega Pattern Plasma Blastgun. The STC for this weapon was originally discovered by Explorator-Magus Hum’nal in late M39, but a Mechanicus schism over the purity and completeness of its template delayed the testing and eventual deployment of the Omega pattern weapon for centuries.

The Macharius Omega, designed by Stuart Williamson, is an extremely detailed full resin kit featuring some incredible interior detail. This open-topped super-heavy tank also includes two unique crew figures: a Cadian gunner and a calculus-servitor.

Forge World Future Releases

There’s a huge list of amazing projects in the pipeline for 2012, and we’ve got two exclusive sneak peeks for you to ponder over:

The first is something we ‘borrowed’ from Mark Bedford’s desk, while the second you can see part of Simon Egan’s current project – a return to the Badab War perhaps? At the larger end of the Forge World spectrum we are currently working on two sizeable vehicle kits for the noble Adeptus Astartes.

A good way of finding out what these kits could be is to join us at the Forge World Open Day held at Warhammer World here in Nottingham. Our entire Studio team will be showing off their latest releases and future projects, and as always it is free to attend.

Poxy Proxy Predator said...: from a conversation I read on Forge Worlds Facebook page those sneak peeks are 2 Minatours Special Characters from the Badab War.; January 7, 2012 at 9:22 AM
Son of Dorn said...: I like the helmet of the latter marine. First marine I've seen that looks good with the head crest. Like the leg plates on the vehicle crewman marine as well.

Also, the forgeworld newsletter said there would be 2 new tanks released for the 'noble astartes' this year. Wonder what they'll be...; January 7, 2012 at 2:06 PM
