Thank you for your coverage of the event, Loken.
ReplyDeleteDid they say when we could expect to see the second book release?
What's an Iron Hands - Cyborg breeched assault squads? Whatever it is, i want some!
ReplyDeleteWas there any mention of the Imperial Army at any point? Looking cool otherwise!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info :)
Shoudl be "Breecher" not "Breeched". No news other than the name!
ReplyDeleteNo mention of the IG.
You are welcome!
Dark Angels! Are they leaving the 1st Legion till last? ;P
ReplyDeleteWell, not any time soon for the First Legion!
ReplyDeleteLoken, I missed the date for the second HH Book. Awesome I'm just glad to finally see some loyalist Primarch get some attention for this next book.
ReplyDeleteHoping to be released around end of September but they absoloutly will not rush it so if it's not ready they won't put it out there.
ReplyDeleteImperial Army will be seen in book 5 (Calth) and will be both loyal and traitor guard.
@Jipin
Any word on a kharn model.... Ever?
ReplyDeleteWhite Scars??? :(
ReplyDeleteThank you for the informations.
ReplyDeleteI am happy to see Sisters of Silence, but what about White Scars ? Imperial Army ?
First legion ...
I wonder if the trilogy will be sold as a collector's set w/ goodies!?
ReplyDeleteLoken: Alan Bligh confirmed that the Cyborg Breacher Squads (Medusan Immortals?), were supposed to be Iron Hands who had failed a mission, and were prepared to do anything to redeem themselves in the eyes of their brothers. So basically they are cyborg berserkers with riot shields.
ReplyDeleteAlso he mentioned a second Iron Hands special unit: Gorgon Terminators (of which the Morlocks were a part).
